Sunnies

I like the Australian word for sunglasses; "sunnies," far better! Here are a few new sunnies coming to Maiden Rapture Vintage next week...

Thanks to my lovely model and roomie, Melody!

Summer is coming, guys... I can almost taste it!!!!!!!

Just Because

I watched Woody Allen's 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' last night. If there's enough Javier Bardem for ScarJo and Penelope Cruz, then there's enough for all of us, too. Thought I'd share.

You're welcome!!!

My god where comes your genes???

I stumbled across this video on YouTube today...

A few things I love about this video:
1. That teenage girl is SO adorable and confident!
2. All those boys are WAY shorter than her.
3. None of the boys have any clue how to respond.
4. Everyone is awkward and geeky.

This hilarious comment was under the video:
"Mine would be like this: "Do you know where you're accent come from?? Is beautiful!!"
or "My god where comes your genes??"
or "I would join you to shopping!!!!

You know they like shopping!!!"

Pretty clever, dude!!! I don't even have to sarcastically ask if you thought those ones up yourself!

I was obsessed with pick up lines in high school, too. I used to carry around a huge list of them that I printed out off the internet. It was a good, sneaky way to flirt with boys by showing them that list. Not that they were interested. Hmpf!

PS Do you have a quarter? 'Cause I told my mama I'd call her when I fell in love.

Orchids

OHHHHH, how I worship orchids... the shapes, the color palettes, the aromas.... the mystery and the sex appeal....

That being said.... Be still my beating heart!!! Are these mirrors not the most gorgeous tribute to orchids ever?? The older I get, the more I tend to unconsciously avoid mirrors. However, if I had any one of these mirrors, I'd be admiring myself every chance I got. In fact, I'd slap on some make-up and a pretty dress just to see my fragmented, smokey reflection in one of these beauties.

All from the Lobmeyr Orchid Collection. Handcut black mirrored crystal and steel. All for the low, low price of $11,000 each.

Ha. I'll keep avoiding mirrors for now, I guess.

Twitter?

Does Twitter creep anyone else out? Why not just start a REAL blog? Does anyone really need to know anyone else's play by play moments throughout the day? And I thought Facebook was a little too stalkerish/weird. I dunno.... Jus' sayin'....
