Besides going to the PX(military dept. store) I really didn’t go anywhere else except OLD NAVY. And we didn’t even get out of the house until about 11am. I love bargains but not crazy enough to face the mad crowd. Not today anyway, heh. Even at the PX I didn’t really find anything clothing wise. I saw my $17 electric griddle and I was good..LOL. YES, I’m a fashionista who loves to cook hence my giddiness over kitchen gadgets. Anyway, back to fashion. I only found 2 things from OLD NAVY. Well 2 things that I cared to look for anyway. I knew I wanted to get jeans coz besides Levi’s and L.E.I jeans, Old Navy Jeans make my derriere look really good which is why it’s a favorite brand of mine.

Project Runway is sort of lackluster in comparison to previous seasons. I think it’s because there isn’t a “bad guy” yet: You know, no Jeffrey, no Santino, no Wendy Pepper. The contestants seem kinda nice and a little too genuine. This was particularly obvious when celebrity guest judge/fashion icon Sarah Jessica Parker showed up to poach one of the designs for her inexpensive and unimpressive clothing line Bitten. The designers totally lost their shit when she entered the room, and Chris March (aka the Harvey Fierstein lookalike) even started crying. It was all a little too reminiscent of Oprah’s Favorite Things audience.

First, I hope you have recovered from Thanksgiving and had a wonderful day of food, friends, and fun. I did. I was not nearly as exhausted as I thought I would be last night, and everything  pretty much went off as planned.

This morning was a little crazier than I thought, though. I really wanted to scoop up that Sony VAIO for $399 at Best Buy for my two younger ones, but a friend told me that yesterday at noon there were people already camped outside the door, so I decided not to even bother. But crowds were everywhere I went this morning.

Now let me preface this by saying that discount stores are, by nature, dangerous shopping grounds. You never know what you’ll find, and the quality can be scary if you’re not careful. But I can’t resist the 15 Dollar Store, which has Junior Plus pieces perfect for those of us who are going to head out on a cruise or take a warm vacation. Even if you’re not, try layering a chiffon top under a lightweight sweater this winter for style and comfort. I personally like this Shirred Chiffon Sleeveless Top.

Here’s cool list from my fellow T-shirt blogger, Mike Payne: Top 7 Hottest T-Shirt Girls on the Web, although well I don’t totally agree with the list since I see more T-shirt girls as I browse dozens of tee shops in daily basis.

Heh, seriously maybe I should make my own list later; but for now enjoy Mike’s list. It’s pretty hot list!

I think I shall have to soon learn the pains of not being able to keep any of the loveliness that I pull for photoshoots.  As the shiny black Brittique box arrived in my office and I pulled out this Tata Naka dress, I got the most heavy thud of deja vu, with memories of buying new party dresses flooding back.  The black velvet peter pan collared dress that I wore when I was three.  The yellow tulle bridesmaid dress that had a mini train of fake flowers attached to it (my sister wore the pink version).  Then the number of 80’s prom dresses I acquired when I went through a phase of having just discovered vintage promgear and literally going wild over anything poofy, shiny or sparkly.  Of course, in material/monetary value, none of that compares to the literal weight and cost of this Tata Naka dress.  There’s a lot of fabric on this gold brocade coat dress with a scalloped hem.  Everything about it has a ‘big’ factor - the oversized scallop on the hem, the huge poofy bow, the puffed up sleeves, the buttons (is it me or is there something oddly rewarding about doing up huge rounded buttons….?). 

Designed by identical Georgian twins Tamara and Natasha Surguladze, Tata-Naka is one of those labels that has been around a while in London and in my opinion is quite underrated.  I love their ability to go and do something whimsical and completely selfish, taking inspiration from their motherland of Georgia.  Their collection for AW07-8 is my favourite to date (Brittique also sell the mini mouse dress which I raved about a while ago…) and since then I can’t seem to find the whereabouts of their SS08 collection…

Dear Reader:
As our esteemed colleague Anna announced this morning, today is our six month anniversary. Now give yourselves a pat on the back for contributing to our momentous growth and all around well-being. Done? Great. After a few days of extensive data mining, we’d like to take this opportunity to present to you a psychographic profile of the average Jezebel reader. Who is this elusive hussy? Is she for or against period sex? Does she think Tyra Banks had a nose job? Does she like black, white or Asian babies best? We used the scientifically infallible method of culling your poll answers to create a foolproof Jezebel reader profile. Our results after the jump.

In the bedroom, Jezebel might be described as a “sloppy vixen.”

I read this news from the blog of Specktra, and I must say that I am very astonished! In a good way! Every brand is seeking to get a share of the mineral makeup hype slash trend that we have now, and it would be very interesting that MAC, the holy grail makeup company of many, and great makeup artists, would launch their own mineral makeup this 2008. It is said to have an applicator with the product already, and would be in limited edition.
