GG "The Handmaiden's Tale"

I missed the first 15 minutes of the show =[ My father made me do laundry.
Vanessa, Dan's "friend", made an appearance for the first time on the show. In the book Vanessa is a pale, punk rock, angry at the world bald chick. This is her on the show.

Big difference, eh?

Oh my gosh, Jenny. She is so smart and funny. What she did to Chuck was so genious. It was so akward when Nate thought that Jenny was Serena and told her that he still loved Serena and didn't have feelings for Blair. And why did Jenny kiss Nate? Does she have feelings for him.. hm..other things that happened..Lily and Rufus kissed "to make Mr. Bass jealous." Yeah right. We all know they want each other. XD And I cant believe Nate's dad uses drugs and Nate got in trouble for it -- so unfair!
I think Vanessa and Dan seem like the better pair, but it's unfortunate because I really want to see him and Serena get serious. I think Serena and Nate will probably end up being together.
So, who do you think belongs with Dan, Serena or Vanessa?

GG "Dare Devil"

I loove Jenny's dress/jacket ensemble.

Ok so this episode was pretty intense. Blair hosted her yearly sleepover suaree, which Jenny was invited to in Serena's place, while Dan and Serena finally went on their first date. The date started out a little rocky and awkward, but after the stiff dinner, they had a "real Dan Humphrey date" at a bar, and Dan taught Serena how to play pool. Smooth, Dan. Then they kissed -- it was cute. Then, during the sleepover Blair dared Jenny to sneak Eric out of the Ostroff Center. I thought it was hilarious when Blair pretended to be a drug addict. XD After the whole sneaking Eric out and going clubbing drama, parents found out, Dan and Serena had to fix everything once again, and Lily and Rufus reminisced about their past. So, is Jenny turning into a bad girl? mm..peer pressure is kicking in. I was actually proud of Jenny for deciding not to sleepover at Blair's after all the truth or dare drama. Woo go J! And finally, what happened to Nate and Chuck? I missed them, well, when I say "them," I mean Nate =]

I had to post this picture from the makeover episode on Beauty and the Geek. This is John, and he looks like a model now. Back off, he's mine.

Au Naturale

The trend of the world today, it seems, is saving the enviroment. Using products from companies that are "eco-friendly" may not seem like a significant way of changing the planet, but it is a good start. How can using green products save the planet? One issue is that bottles made from PVC (a toxic plastic) are harmful to the enviroment. It seems like everywhere I look nowadays, there are commercials for creams filled with antioxidants, sheer as light mineral cosmetics, and organic food. When it comes to natural and organic, it can pertain to anything-beauty products, clothing, food, and more. So in this post is a collection of au naturale products that everyone should try out =]

organic food
Stonyfield energy drink, Kashi cereal, Wellness Grocer dried apples.

natural beauty
Origins moisturizer, Kiss My Face bar soap, Bare Minerals makeup.

eco-friendly fashion

GG "Bad News Blair"

Chinese Laundry boots. <3

I thought that this was a good episode. I used to hate Blair, but I like her a little bit more than I did last week after seeing that she has a nice side. Oh, and we saw Chuck's nice side too! I thought he was so douchy before, and I still do, but he proved that he is a good friend to Nate. I really wish that Dan and Serena would progress in their relationship already. Their romance is so dragged out, but they finally have a date set up next episode =] I can't wait to see what Blair does to Jenny next week! I hope nothing too bad, because I like Jenny.

Milan Fashion Week Spring '08: Gucci

This collection was another of my favorites. It reminded me of Grease, the look was kind of like the Pink Ladies meet the Greasers. I love the mix of tough leather with pink femininity.

The silhouette this piece creates is amazing.

Bye Fro.

Aw. I loved Mika's curly hair. I just can't imagine him singing Lollipop with this slicked back monstrosity.
