How Am I Supposed To Unsee This, Sarah Michelle Gellar?

Yes, in fact I do realize that the Golden Globes were almost a week ago. And that mostly everything that could possibly be said about the fashion misses and hits has already been said. 

But also, JESUS FUCKING CHRIST SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR!

I serioulsy cannot get this monstrosity out of my head. 

I decided that the only way to really cope, was to make up a list of things that I thnk are actually uglier and more vile than this "dress." Here's what I cam up with:

*Cancer

*Hitler

*My haircut from 10th grade (thankfully, there are no surviving photos...at least on the internet)

*Puli dogs

*Penn Station in NYC (and in case you didn't realize, this is how gorge that place USED to be before they wrecked it. Everytime I see those pictures I actually want to cry)

That was pretty much all I could come up. May we all never see this thing ever, ever, never again. Amen.

10 THINGS PINTEREST SHOULD DO RIGHT NOW

You know how sometimes you have a friend that you really, really love and care about, but they keep doing stupid shit that's like an 11 on a scale of 1-10, and it kinda makes you wanna punch them in the face? But you can't cause you LOVE THEM, and they mean the world to you, and if they would just stop doing the stupid shit, you would forget about it forever and just go right back to being besties, and never, ever mention it again?

Right, well that's kinda how I'm feeling about Pinterest lately.

Truth time: there is literally not a single website, service, or platform that has EVER come along in the history of my internet browsing days that has excited me, and....well fine, fulfilled me as much as Pinterest.  I'm not being melodramatic here. I love the living shit out of it.

Anthropologie Bedding: Unicorns-n-Puppy Dogs

Ok, in terms of clothes and jewelry, I love me some Anthro just as much as the next girl. But can someone explain to me why the hell ALL of their bedding looks like it's made out of cream puffs, cotton candy and maxi-pads? 

It's just so goddamned ruffle-y and girly, it all kinda makes me want to barf. I mean, can you imagine a dude anywhere being ok with this in the bedroom? I mean don't get me wrong: they have pretty stuff. I just wish it wasn't allllllll dripping so hard with sugar and spice and everything nice. 

If only they'd come out with a dude's line...I'd be all over that like Adam Levine on a supermodel. 

Just me?

Photography Tips for Non-Photographers

I read this post on photography tips on Justina Blakeney's blog, and I loved em all as they are mostly targeted toward those of us who take pics with our iphones. 

Like this one: 

1.2 Flash = no no
For whatever reason, the flash always makes my photos look cheesy-- so I don't use it.

Uhm, YES!? WTF, iPhone!? Except I would replace "cheesy" with deep down dirty horrendous, momentously awful or horrible times a billion. 

I have literally never seen a good iPhone picture taken with a flash. Do they exist? They're like unicorns.

CRAP ON MY MIND

1. Holy shit, I'm bored of blogging. If pinterest had a fucking "blog" button on each pin I pinned, perhaps this place wouldn't look all ghost town-y and shit. 

2. The Nate Berkus show got cancelled. They're saying stuff like "it's run ended" and that Harpo is "choosing not to renew" but let's get real ppl: it sucked. The fact that that thing lasted two years is more surprising to me than the Michael Jackson/Lisa Marie Presley marriage was. Also: #NATEGATE, never forget.

Kids Rooms

So, as we all know around here: I'm not so much a kid person. 

I mean, I'm sure your kids are ridiculously cute and adorable and blah, blah, blah, blah, but also I like to sleep in until 10am on the weekends and spend ridiculous amounts of money on stupid shit like wrapping paper and caviar for my eggs in the morning. So no kids for me. 

BUT!

Thanks to, yet again, the magic of Pinterest, I keep coming across some pretty killer kiddie boudoirs.

What to Wear Where?

That headline was so good, I actually just stole it word for word from Honestly WTF.

But I was actually thinking about this a lot recently, as we just had our amazing trip to Sedona, AZ last week. And before we left, I found myself shopping for some travel wear and picking out shit that I might not normally wear at home in NYC. I mean, I came home with a bag full of shearling vests, and earth-tone colored sweaters, and navajo prints, and this stupid headband head warmer thing. And when I walked in and showed my husband all this crap he was like: "uhm, are we going to stay at a dude ranch?"

Outdoor In, Indoor Out

Maybe because I live in NYC, or maybe because I've just always been a "grass is always greener" type gal, but whatever the reason: I'm just always drawn to spaces that successfully integrate the outside with the inside.

I want that one day...and I want it BAD.

Having this indoor/outdoor thing in NYC is pretty much a pipe dream, wrapped inside a unicorn, perched on top of a Leprachaun's head...unless of course you're the Novogratzes, who pretty much have the coolest ass house in all of Manhattan.
