Telekinesis released another fun and intriguing album last month. Dormarion is frontman Michael Benjamin Lerner's third record since signing with Merge Records in 2009. Each bright and catchy track creates an album that is representative of the place it was recorded: right here in Austin, Texas. Dormarion was produced by Jim Eno, the drummer of Spoon, and the album even took its name from the very street it was recorded on.
SXSW Eco's PanelPicker is open for voting! From corporations using biomimicry to better their products to saving forests with paper, the sessions submitted for 2013 are as diverse and exciting as the event itself. Our staff has been hard at work developing new and improved events for this year's conference including:

Nucky's Empire: The Prohibition Years |
Prohibition Era - Prohibition in Atlantic City | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Prohibition in a Wide Open TownProhibition went into effect nationwide at midnight January 16, 1920. This law made it illegal to make or sell liquor (including beer and wine), but Americans drank anyway, going to secret clubs or "speakeasies" or making "bathtub gin" at home. Alcohol could be obtained legally only with a doctor's prescription. Organized crime, or mobs, cropped up to supply the alcohol to the many customers demanding it all across the country. In Atlantic City, Prohibition was essentially unenforced by the local authorities. Atlantic City was a well-known haven for those seeking alcohol. The tourist-based economy of the resort encouraged business owners to provide whatever was needed to make the visitors happy. The city's beachfront location and docks allowed rum-runners to bring their goods onto shore. Add in a powerful city boss who allegedly controlled everything from the smuggling operation to the law enforcement to the restaurants where alcohol was served, and Atlantic City was essentially a wide open town, flagrantly violating the federal law. Experience life in Atlantic City during Prohibition by exploring the exhibits below. Check back often, as more information will be added!
Visit some of the popular 1920s sites in Atlantic City. Where was Babette's? How far away was the Ritz-Carlton? What would you see if you walked the Boardwalk in the 1920s? This map shows many of the 1920s Altantic City landmarks, superimposed on a map of the current city. Click on the markers to learn more about each location. Locations marked with a star are sites that are still around today. Locations with a red marker are no longer part of Atlantic City's landscape. Bathtub gin, speakeasies, jazz, the Charleston. What were Americans doing in the 1920s? Dancing the Charleston , listening to jazz, and watching Rudolph Valentino at the movies. In spite of Prohibition, which made it illegal to make or sell liquor (including beer and wine) Americans drank anyway, going to secret clubs or "speakeasies" or making "bathtub gin" at home. In Atlantic City, during Prohibition, the power of Atlantic City's boss, Enoch "Nucky" Johnson reached its zenith. Prohibition was effectively unenforced in Atlantic City, and, as a result, the resort's popularity grew further. The city then called itself "The World's Play Ground". Most of Johnson's income came from the percentage he took on every gallon of illegal liquor sold, and on his gambling and prostitution operations in Atlantic City. Johnson allegedly said: It was also during the Roaring 20s that the flapper came to be. Young women rebelled against the previous generation, cutting their hair short and shortening their hem lines and wearing makeup, in the spirit of their new found freedom and encouraged by their new economic wealth. These decadent party goers, both the flappers, and their male counterparts, the Flaming Youth, demanded access to the alcohol that was accessible to the very well connected, and thus the demand for alcohol, which had never really disappeared, instead increased. The unique new musical form called jazz was so important to the 1920s that the period is sometimes called the "Jazz Age." Jazz served as the background music for this period, playing in nightclubs, on Broadway, as well as at private parties, and it drew New Yorkers to Harlem, the heart of African American culture during the 1920s.

Wallabies pivot Quade Cooper needs more surgery on the same knee he injured at last year's World Cup and has been ruled out of the rest of the Rugby Championship.
The Australian Rugby Union (ARU) confirmed scans showed a small chip of cartilage in Cooper's right knee and the playmaker would need an operation "to clean up" the problem.
Having only recently returned for the Wallabies, Cooper will miss Australia's final two games of the competition in South Africa (on September 29) and Argentina the following weekend.
However, Cooper's injury is not long term and he may be available for the end-of-year tour to Europe.
The injury compounds a troublesome season for Cooper, who put in one of his worst Test efforts of his 38-cap career in Australia's come-from-behind win over Argentina last Saturday.
The Queensland playmaker made a string of errors that contributed to Australia trailing 19-6 before they rallied late to win 23-19.
Australia will name a 28-man squad for the matches against the Springboks and Pumas on Wednesday.

There are a few threads where I mention a friend of mine it's all the same person. He is by and far THE MOST PARANOID person I know He thinks the following
-The FBI is spying on him through Facebook and because he supports Ron Paul he's on some sort of list.
-Microsoft is spying on us right now through Windows and Kinect and sharing that info with the Government
-Japan is unsafe and full of radiation
- The CIA runs the media
-The World Really is ending next year
That's just off the top of my head. Seriously I've never met somebody so paranoid. I thought I was paranoid, I don't trust anyone but he takes the cake, We didn't speak for a good 3 years because he was so crazy, but he's calmed down since then....

G-Star The Art of Raw
Cartelle and G-Star team up for 'The Art of Raw,' a digital experience that explores the unlimited possibilities of denim.
- Client
- G-Star
- Released
- February 2013
- Role
- Art Direction, Design, IA, Execution
The Art of Raw is G-Star's latest campaign for S/S 13 that showcases a series of explorations into the unlimited possibilities of denim.
The digital experience starts with the campaign's centerpiece, a fully CGI macro-level journey through the denim creation process with a musical collaboration from Skrillex.
In addition, the site walks visitors through the denim-making process while highlighting their latest collection and lookbook.
Design Walkthrough
"Ambilight" video
"The Making of Denim" is a collection of four videos that provide a deeper look into G-Star's love for denim and thoughtful manufacturing process.
The videos within the campaign site offer a unique, enhanced experience; a real-time "Ambilight" effect that color matches the site background, giving the video an even more immersive feel.
Intuitive navigation
With loads of sites out there leveraging vertical scroll, we tried to pay close attention to introducing unique features and details to ensure this site was a special one.
One of these features is the "snap" scrolling which intuitively guides the user through each page with either a simple tap, trackpad scroll or subtle scrollbar movement.
If a page extends the view of the window, we introduce hover-panning, a classic mechanic from the Flash days that allow users to browse tall pages and portrait photo's without a click, making for a smooth experience.

Preview: Nuggets at Bulls
The Denver Nuggets look to match the longest winning streak in franchise history Monday when they visit the Chicago Bulls, who sit 2 1/2 games behind third-place New York in the Eastern Conference. Denver is one game behind the third-place Los Angeles Clippers after extending its winning streak to 11 games on Friday with an 87-80 win over Memphis. The Bulls are unlikely to have star Derrick Rose available against the Nuggets, but the point guard could return as soon as this week. "He continues to get better," coach Tom Thibodeau said of Rose, who has been out all season while recovering from knee surgery. The Bulls are the worst scoring team in the league, but they're coming off a 113-95 win over the Golden State Warriors on Friday. They'll need another strong offensive game to keep pace with the high-scoring Nuggets.TV: 8 p.m. ET, Altitude (Denver), Comcast SportsNet ChicagoABOUT THE NUGGETS (45-22): Denver improved to 30-3 at the Pepsi Center with its victory over Memphis on Friday, when center Kosta Koufos scored 18 points and grabbed a career-high 16 rebounds. Denver has won four straight road games during its 11-game win streak, but the team is 15-19 overall away from home. Second-year forward Kenneth Faried had 21 points and 12 boards in a 128-96 victory over Chicago on Feb. 7, when Denver shot 58.1 percent.ABOUT THE BULLS (36-29): Chicago has a favorable schedule down the stretch with nine of its last 17 games at home, but health could play a major role in the team's postseason plans. In addition to Rose, the Bulls are hoping to get Kirk Hinrich (foot) and Taj Gibson (knee) back at some point during this week's three-game homestand. Center Joakim Noah has led the Bulls in rebounding 10 games in a row, and he's averaging 14.4 points and 13.3 boards over the past eight games.BUZZER BEATERS1.

RACINE — Over the past three years, 29 officers from Meigs and Gallia counties have taken part in the Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training held in Meigs County.
The third class of CIT graduates recently completed the 40-hour course organized in conjunction with the Meigs County Family and Children First Council.
Since the first training was held in December 2011, the planning committee has worked to advance the trainings offered to the local officers.
This year 10 officers took part in the training. According to Andrea Weakly, Family and Children First Council Coordinator, all of the officers with the Meigs County Sheriff's Office have now taken part in the training.
The CIT Youth training has also been offered in the county in February 2012, first training of its kind in the state of Ohio.
The week-long class was organized by the planning committee of Andrea Weakly, Meigs County FCFC Coordinator Co-CIT Coordinator; Major Scott Trussell, Co-CIT Coordinator; Nancy Hill, Meigs County Juvenille Court; Gallia County Sheriff Joe Browning; Robin Harris Deputy Director of GJMADMHS; Dr. Dorothy Boston, Woodland Centers; Abby Russell, Woodland Centers; Jennifer Holt Southern Local School District; Angie Harton and Margie Manley, NAMI Meigs.
Crisis Intervention Team Training began in Memphis, Tenn., and was brought to Ohio in 2001.
According to the CIT website, the CIT is made up of volunteer officers who are called upon to respond to crisis calls that present officers face-to-face with complex issues relating to mental illness.

This is my project, I have been working on it for a couple of months. Is not ready yet and certainly it's not good looking, need more work but here is a video of some features.
Note this is a Steadycam design based on ECILOP ideas. But with a Multiwii board instead of gyros. Multiwii is fixed to the steadycam arm and acts as stab controller. I did a couple of changes in multiwii firmware to add a new mode "STEADYCAM" couse "GIMBAL" mode is just delta angle stab, and I need a PID loop stab + delta angle.
I use high speed servos and rubber bands as actuators couse direct drive is a mess.
The inner frame is connected to main frame by rubber band, so vibration cant pass trough to the FC and Steadycam system.
Here are the arms and main frame:
Fully assembled, note that no camera is attached bellow, instead a use a dead lipo battery as ballast and my bike back light which has a laser similar to a laser level.
Let me know if I understand this correctly. The system is primarily a mechanical steadycam style motion compensation/smoothing system, but the servos engage and act as dampers to reduce oscillation and alter the "home" position to compensate for hexacopter pitch and roll? Then that whole system is rubber band isolated from the motors/airframe to reduce high frequency vibration?
George, I couldn't describe it better. Yes you are right. Thank you to write it down in correct words. English is no my native language.
Great to see you have removed the props for testing this hexa. We are still seeing too many hand injuries from accidental motor startup.
I see that you fly an RCTimer board...
Drone Savant, yes I do, I have to keep my costs low. Here in Argentina US Dollars gets more expensive everyday.
I can help you about comparation between FC, all I have to say is that it works just fine.
Sorry, I mean, I can't help you about comparation between FC, all I have to say is that it works just fine.
I just like to see *successful* users of CC-BY-SA 3drobotics hardware clones. Glad to add you to the list of happy users. Some people act as if ArduFlyer and the folks that use them are evil.
Cheers to your success.
Another problem when buying 3DR APM, at least for us south americans is shipping and taxes... 3DR only ships by Fedex, which is expensive, always taxed and the taxes are higher than when shipped by regular postal services. If I buy a clone from china they will probably provide free shipping and for small packages most of the time its not taxed... the difference will be huge, probably 5x more expensive to buy from 3DR
Thats right Leonardo, I have awful experiences with Fedex, UPS and DHL. I prefer International Registered Air Mail/Parcel or EMS. I have to pay almost u$s100 taxes for a small FC multiwii of u$s40 when DHL came to my door. Of course you can say no, and walk a long way of paperwork, bureaucracy and waste of time to get that taxes reduced a little bit.
This is a point that is rarely brought up, yet I have seen it about 3 times this week. Some people will say you are just users of *evil* clone hardware and you won't be supported here. To me however it is funny how you guys have completely legit reasons to be using the clone hardware.
Have you tried asking 3drobotics about their "Low Price Guarantee"? Maybe they can find a way to help offset the cost. http://store.diydrones.com/help_answer.asp?ID=13#21

The big freeze across the UK is here to stay, with more snow expected next week.
With travel chaos across the country and Britain's busiest airport being likened to a "refugee camp" amid more than 110 cancelled flights, forecasters predicted further misery in the coming days.
On Saturday night, a major search ended when six climbers were located after some of their group went missing in an avalanche at Glencoe in the Scottish Highlands. One woman said to be seriously injured was taken to Belford hospital in Fort William and a male climber was discovered safe and well.
Following Friday's deluge of snow, much of Saturday's snowfall was limited to the north east of England and the east of Scotland. But on Sunday a blanket of snow is expected to fall across more of the nation, hitting London and the South East of England first before moving north.
Laura Caldwell, of MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: "There will be a few snow showers but heavier snow moving into the south of England and spreading into the Midlands, north east Wales, East Anglia and central England. There will be a quite significant accumulation and it will be seen first in London and the South East before moving north later in the day."
Freezing temperatures which have chilled the UK for the past week will also combine, with more snow in northern England as next week begins, Ms Caldwell added. "It is not going to be getting warmer any time soon," she said.
On Saturday, there were angry scenes at London's Heathrow airport as travellers had to sleep on the floor for a second day after flights continued to be hit by the weather. Simon Calder, travel editor of the Independent, painted a bleak picture, saying the scene was like "a refugee camp".
Frustrated passengers claimed they were not given enough information as at least 67 departures were grounded and 33 arrivals cancelled. Tempers frayed in Terminal 5, with accusations of queue-jumping in the lengthy lines at check-in desks.
There will be a reduced flight schedule on Sunday with an estimated 260 cancellations. BA and the airport insisted they were doing everything they could in difficult circumstances. Travellers at regional airports including Leeds Bradford, Humberside and Newcastle were also frustrated by delays and disruption caused by the wintry weather.
Train passengers did not fare much better, with reduced services across the country. Virgin Trains cancelled a number of services from the capital to Birmingham and Manchester, and others were delayed. The freezing temperatures also prompted motoring organisations to issue warnings. Darron Burness, the AA's head of special operations, said: "With the snow compacting down and turning icy, we're likely to see treacherous driving conditions throughout the weekend. Any fresh snow on top will just add to the problems."

Ruffled Toddler Poncho
22 comments :
I'm really interested in trying this and wanted to know how you dealt with the ruffle when you cut the hole for the head.
ReplyDeleteRepliesHi Lorna,
I just cut the hole out and since it didn't fray since it is fleece, I didn't hem it or anything. But I did have to back stitch a few stitches since I cut through the ruffle stitching when I cut the hole. I can't believe I didn't add that to the post! It's been a year since I wrote this up. Thanks so much, I'll add that.
Thank you for taking the time to comment! I read each and every one and will try to respond to any questions you may have. If you would like a response, make sure that your blogger profile has a link to contact you. Thanks! I reserve the right to delete any comments that I feel do not contribute our blog and its contents.

Second suspect charged in buttocks implant death in Mississippi
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A second person has been charged in the death of a Georgia woman who died from an illegal buttocks implant in Mississippi in March, authorities said Monday.
The Mississippi attorney general's office said in a news release that 39-year-old Natasha Stewart of Memphis, Tenn., was arrested Jan. 3. The release said she waived extradition and will be returned to Mississippi.
Stewart, who also goes by the name Pebbelz, was indicted on charges of murder, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to commit wire fraud, authorities said.
It wasn't immediately clear whether she had an attorney.
Morris Garner, who also goes by the name Tracey Lynn Garner, was previously charged with depraved-heart murder and is said to have performed the procedure at his house in Jackson, Miss., on 37-year-old Karima Gordon of Atlanta. Investigators have said the silicone-like substance that was injected into Gordon caused blood clots in her lungs and killed her.
Depraved-heart murder is a legal term for an action that demonstrates a "callous disregard for human life" and results in death. It carries a life sentence.
Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood has said Garner had no training or license to perform the implant procedure.
Hood had said earlier in the investigation that Gordon, who had served in the military and wanted to become a model, found Garner after meeting someone on the Internet known to authorities at that time only as "Pebbles."
Gordon met the woman in person in New York City and paid her $200 for the referral to Garner, according to Hood.
Gordon drove to Mississippi with a friend to have the procedure but became ill a few hours later. Her friend called Garner and asked what to do, and he told them to buy some cough medicine, authorities say. Gordon died at a Georgia hospital a few days later. Continued...
Deaths from illegal cosmetic procedures have happened sporadically around the country as people seek cheaper alternatives to plastic surgeons. A New Jersey woman pleaded not guilty last year after authorities charged her with giving a man a fatal dose of silicone during a penile enhancement procedure. Prosecutors say the suspect in that case had no medical training.

You can thank the Labor Government in Australia for this. The prime minister, Julia Gillard introduced a $A23 per tonne carbon tax to reduce global warming. It has closed thousands of factories & has cost countless thousands of workers their jobs, but at least it's working, England is getting colder!

What's jicama? Sometimes referred to as the "Mexican potato," this sweet and nutty root vegetable can be enjoyed raw or cooked.
Most large supermarkets carry jicama. If that's not an option in your area, check out Mexican and farmers' markets.

What kind of perfume do you wear?
P.S. Six other quirky perfumes.
(Top photo by Sweet Eventide)
272 comments:
I've always wanted a signature scent and I finally found it last year- Trésor, by Lancôme. Not too strong, so I can wear it without getting a headache. In finally finished my first bottle of perfume - EVER. (all the others I would buy, use for a week, and then give to a friend because they were too strong!).
ReplyDeleteI was devastated when Stila discontinued their fragrance Creme Bouquet. I used to get SO many compliments. So I went online and researched what "notes" they used for it and then searched perfumes with the similar make up. That's how I found Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf. I love it and still get compliments. Just enough so people get a whiff when you hug :)
ReplyDeleteI've been wearing Guerlain's Champs Elysee since 1996. My dearest friend introduced it to me by mailing me a tear-out sample from a magazine. He committed suicide in 2000, and I've continued to wear it ever since in honor of him. Plus, it really is a wonderful perfume and suits me perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI ADORE this post. I love knowing these facts about people- I love the responses. I too like clean, and love Demeter Laundromat- can you get cleaner? it smells like you've just laundered your clothes and your you! I am sure you've read, and probably blogged about the book Perfumes. So hilarious. When a perfume I loved was described as eau de rubber-gloves, i swiftly changed my mind!! http://www.perfumestheguide.com/Perfumes_The_A-Z_Guide_-_Luca_Turin_and_Tania_Sanchez/Where_to_Buy.html I WANT TO SMELL ALL OF YOU!
ReplyDeleteChance by Chanel and Miss Cherie by Dior. Got them in the airport on my way back from Europe. Love em! Dior one's a little bit strong though~
♥ thelittleforestMy boyfriend recently surprised me for my birthday and arranged for a tour of a high-end perfume store in order to test a bunch of scents that were unique and figure out what I liked best (best gift ever).
My fav brands were Heeley (Sel Marin smells like your skin is kissed with sea salt after the beach. Cuir Pleine Fleur is amazing mens cologne that smells like your favorite leather chair), Comme des Garcons (#2, 888 - they are known for avant garde scents like adding smoke to a perfum), Diptyque, and L'Artisan Parfumeur. Highly recommend testing these out!I wear Ore by Zents. It's sexy, alluring and a bit masculine. It's a long-time favorite of mine. Here's a link to it:
P.S. Men have walked up to me and asked "What perfume are you wearing? I'm going to buy that for my wife!" - this has happened on more than one occasion, ha!I've been wearing Sarah Jessica Parker's Lovely for years and I still love it. They say that when choosing a fragrance you should find one you love and stick with it, especially if you're a parent because it will help your children remember you. Our sense of smell is the strongest tie we have to our memory - whenever you children smell your fragrance it will give them strong recollections of you, even when you're gone from them.
ReplyDeleteCreed Spring Flowers is SUCH a lovely fragrance. It was created for Audrey Hepburn. Their perfume is expensive as heck so I don't wear it that often, but the splurge was well worth it. It's made with really high end ingredients so it doesn't ever have an alcohol-y smell.
I also love Stella by Stella McCartney. It's floral but sexy--definitely get asked "what perfume is that??" on a regular basis by guys :)There are several perfumes that I love and used to wear regularly, but when I started having babies I didn't want them snuggling into me and absorbing all those toxic chemicals. (Many of the same chemicals that are found in cigarette smoke.... what's the difference for your kids???). Plus I liked the idea of my children knowing "MY" scent, not a synthetic version of something else. My youngest is 16 months so maybe when she finishes breast feeding I'll consider perfume again. But I love essential oils for scent right now. And to be honest I think I'll be very careful before I start "spraying" myself again! xx
ReplyDeleteI wear by Taverns & the Hague by Caroline Sabas Anthropologie. I adore that citrusy scent. I dropped a bottle once just days after buying it & I actually cried.
Find That Warm Fuzzy FeelingDuring the fall and winter time, I like wear warmer scents, I love love love Alien, and Lust by Fresh. Scent has such power. One thing I'll always remember about my mother is her love of perfume, her favorites were Chanel, Donna Karen Cashmere and Tresor. I sometimes used to secretly spritz the tiniest amount and pretend I was a classy dame.
ReplyDelete- kaela d.4:17 PM
Beyond Paradise by Estee Lauder in this beautiful little rainbowish purple glass bottle. I'm in my early 20's and have been wearing it for about 10 years..pretty sure it's my signature scent. I don't think I've gone a day without it...I feel naked. And honestly, at this point I don't even think I can smell it that much because I'm so used to it.
The other day my friend Scott said, "Some lady came into my job and smelled exactly like you...I could've sworn you were in the store." I thought it was quite a compliment. :) - Madeline4:23 PM
I have been wearing Kiehls musk for the past 7 years. I have had others but nothing is quite like it. I love it and get complimented on it all the time. Perfect for day or night, I like to think of it as my (and probably a million other smart people out theres...) signature scent.
ReplyDelete Have you ever been to Bond No. 9 on Bond St.? They have the most beautiful perfumes! I also love that they're kind of special and that you can only find them in a few stores. I love West Side the most, but all of them are lovely. The bottles are kind of cheesy, but the scents...the scents are incredible : )
ReplyDeleteperfume is one of my favorite things. I would love to have a signature scent, but I haven't settled on any one scent yet. Right now I'm using Annouck Goutal Ambre Fetiche and Grove New York Luxe based on my mood. But I think the thing I get the most compliments on is my Lush Dirty Body Spray!
ReplyDeleteChanel No. 19.
For today, yesterday and forever.........
It is clean, slightly green, fresh and powdery with a bit of a 50's vibe.
I get many compliments (from men and women), my husband loves it, as do my children (if I ever have anything else on they say I don't smell "right")
...totally agree with Bethany's comments about children remembering your fragrance. My youngest son took a scarf of mine to hospital as it smelt like me (he was only 6 at the time) as it was a great comfort to him.
...but most of all I love it myself - it just makes me happy!I've been wearing Coco Chanel since the mid 80s, when it first came out and I was a teenager. My Mom went to a conference with my Dad and all the wives were given swag, which included a tiny bottle of it. I loved it so much I kept sneaking dabs, until the bottle was gone. I got a full size one for Christmas that year and I've worn it ever since. I've flirted with other fragrances (Opium is wonderful and sexy, especially mixed with sandlewood oil), but I never feel quite like myself without my Coco. My husband and I were in London recently and we went into a Penhaligon's shop to "play." He loved the way Artemisia smelled on me, and we bought some (including a beautiful silver plate compact with a solid version in it), and I do like it a lot, particularly because it reminds me of our time in the UK, but I still prefer Coco. I'm terrified that Chanel is going to stop making it!
ReplyDeleteI've gone through phases -- in college and law school and through my early 20's I wore Anais Anais by Cacharel (my husband still says that's the smell that reminds him of me. To me, it's the smell of Paris from when I was a child), then I switched about 5 years ago to Hermes Un Jardin Sur Le Nil (smells like grapefruit and rain) and lately I've been wearing Jo Malone's Orange Blossom.
ReplyDelete- leathergal5:51 PM
I'm super picky and can't stand overwhelming scents. I too go for clean or light floral scents. I adore Pacifica's French Lilac-I bought the roller-ball version last Christmas and still have some left! Their Tahitian Gardenia and Tunisian Jasmine are awesome too:) at $12, they can't be beat!
ReplyDelete I started wearing Clean and Clean Sweet Layer a few years ago, and then a couple of my friends liked it and bought it too...and it seemed to smell better on them. You know how certain perfumes respond better with certain people's body chemistry? It made me a bit mad, so I switched.
Now my day perfume is Hesperides by Fresh, which is citrusy.
I need a good night time perfume for when I want to take it up a notch, but I don't like to be toooo perfumy, so I'm happy for all these suggestions! :)I used to wear L'Occitane's Vanilla Bourbon exclusively but then they changed the formula and it's never been the same. I love caramel and vanilla notes, so I also like Angel by Thierry Mugler and Creme Bouquet by Stila (ordered it off of Ebay, thank God I found it again!). Marc Jacobs is also really nice... floral and a bit coconutty.
ReplyDeleteGosh, I can't remember the last time I wore perfume! Maybe I should, there is something sexy about smelling good.... Always loved Abercrombie 8.
Joanna or anyone that can help, could you email me where you got your blackout shade for Toby's room? I am in need of one and can't find. Thank you! firstname.lastname@example.com, I'm a little bit perfume obsessed, but I'm really drawn to weird, original scents. I really hate generic ones that smell too chemically to me now. I think it's sort of like becoming a wine snob, once you taste really amazing wine you can't easily go back to bad merlot...or whatever. Ok, that might make me sound pretentious, but I swear I'm not! I just really love perfume :)
So, my main go-to is layering Comme de Garcons' Avignon (which is a strong incense that smells exactly like a European Catholic church during mass) with L'Artisan Parfumeur's Vanilia, which is a slightly ashy sweet vanilla. It's a grown-up vanilla that isn't too formal, but when it's paired with incense, it's this great strong, sexy sweet, smoky combination. I adore it.
Other perfumes that will always be on my all time favourite list (but can not afford...sad!) are Chanel's Coromandel (exclusive line) - it's also kinda hippie but sophisticated. Slightly patchouli, which I have always loved growing up with hippie parents, but then really chic vanilla and spice... it smells like the most graceful lady you can imagine - but you know she had a little bit of a wild youth :P
Then, my other love is Liasons Dangereuses by By Killian. It is the most sensual, beautiful, floral, berries amazing perfume ever. So so beautiful. It smells like a picnic in a forest dripping with flowers and fruit... Oh man.
There are more (obviously, haha), but those are my all time favourites to date :) I would encourage you to check out Katie Puckrick on YouTube - great perfume videos, as well as the Perfume: A to Z Guide - super great perfume reviews. Ok, stopping rambling now!!!
- Marita- Anonymous9:58 PM
my husband bought me champs elysee, a perfume i never would have even tried out since its so...womanly. he told me he smelled it in a coffee shop, and tracked down the girl who was wearing it to ask what it was. he said "excuse me, what perfume are you wearing? i think my wife would love it." i asked if she thought he was a creep coming on to her, but apparently she thought it was sweet!
ReplyDelete Got a sample of a bvlgari jasmin I absolutely love and hopefully will get it for Christmas. I usually don't wear anything, but I like soapy clean scents, coconut, vanilla...once in France, this girl smelled amazing so I asked her what her perfume was and she just said vanilla. It was the most perfect vanilla.

Being a member of the clean plate club can lead to obesity. Surveys by the American Institute for Cancer Research show that 69 percent of Americans finish their restaurant meals most or all of the time, regardless of an entree's size. Because typical restaurant servings tend to be two or three times what normal ones should be, cleaning your plate means hundreds of added calories per meal.

And by forever, I mean the eyeshadow itself lasts forever on your eyes, but also in its case!
I have had this particular Too Faced Eye Collection since I was in 8th grade - I am going to be a senior this year. My mother also used mine, so it was used by two people up until a year ago! My mother finally bought her own.
Pigmented, no fall out, AWESOME SHADOWS
Too-Faced Natural Eye pallet is AMAZING. Unless you are smearing the shadow all over your eye, there is absolutely NO fall out! When you swatch the colors, they have a velvet- like texture. You can create natural OR dramatic looks with this pallet. There are cards with ideas on certain shadow combinations, but you can do SO MANY looks with this pallet. I wish I could give it more stars.
Overall, it's worth the 36 bucks. Give it a try!
made me feel great after actually using it!
so im living in Mexico right now and i go back home to LA every time i can, one of my have to places to head to is obviously is a sephora store! i was planning on buying the urban decary naked palette, every girl's have to item!! i started grabbing a bunch of stuff and realized i was going way off my budget! i wasnt sure what to do, if to leave some of my other goodies behind and get the palette or just wait a while longer and come back and get it, turned right over to the Too Faced gondala and saw the gorgeous palette and couldnt help to notice the great price as well!! so i grabed the tester and campared it to the naked palettee and had very similar colors. so i got it, and i am extreamly in love with it!! and the best of all im not leaving remorse on not getting the naked palette....
this is amazing! it has all the colours you will ever need for everyday looks! it suits any skintone and has a definite multitude of different eyeshadows, but is still natural. colours are nicely blended and can easily be mixed to create your own personal eye colour! my favorite colours are heaven, since its a basic colour and comes in handy, velvet revolver, which is amazing for transition colours (if you have darker skin tones, this looks amazing over the lid), and coco puff (not just because the names adorable) but because it look phenomenal in the outer V. i also love sexpresso to line my lower lashes everyday. i think this is worth every penny. if you dont want to splash out on this amazing product i would go for the Sleek au natural palette which has similar colours and is also one of my favourites! :)
This was my first Too Faced pallet and still my favorite. I love every color in here and can do so many different looks with it. You can keep it light and simple or make it dark and sultry. Definitely recommended!
Love It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a great everyday eyeshadow palette. There are light colors for the day time and darker colors that you can use for night time or special occasions. It is very glittery. If you like glitter and dont mind having it on then this eyeshadow is meant for you. If you dont like glitter it wouldnt satisfy you. I LOVE glitter and i LOVE this eyeshadow. I recomend it.If you get it i recomend also getting Too Faced's eyeshadow primer. It helps set the eyeshadow and helps the eyeshadow last long on your eyelids.
great for everyday look I use this a lot jus to do the little things I gotta do deff mommy friendly I know in the morning I am to tired to get me all dolled up n my four kids ready for school so I like this easy to apply cute packaging. I Just wish the colors were a bit more pigmented I have medium skin and it is light
Fantastic colors for everyday use!
I saw this kit on Pinterest and had to have it! These colors are perfect for me. I had never bought any Too Faced products or anything from Beautylish before and I was extremely impressed with both. I love the eyeshadow collection and the little guides that go with it and explain how to wear the shades. It arrived very quickly and beautifully packaged with a handwritten thank you note. I love that!! The colors are gorgeous and really last. As another reviewer pointed out, the more glittery colors can leave a bit of glitter around your eye when you first apply them, but it I just wiped that off with a tissue and didn't have anymore problems with it. All in all, a fantastic kit!
I bought this on a whim while on a shopping spree and I don't regret it. The colors are gorgeous and they stay on for quite a while. My only complaint so far is the erotica shade is a bit too crumbly for application but other than that it's wonderful. I especially like the booklet in the box with all the different styles for complete eyemakeup novices like me!
