Cher 15th Anniversary Box (60) 

My friend sent me the Cher 15th ANNIVERSARY BOX! 

It was surprising that they’ve done another bag with their catalog release. Last season they said the wouldn’t be including a bag anymore. Maybe the bad economy made them want to do another free bag in order to sell? Or maybe they were using the announcement before to sell out of THAT catalog? humm, hummm!

This box came with an eco bag made of denim with rope for handles. VERY spring meets summer I think. Capitalizing on both the denim and nautical trends. There is also a pouch in similar style. It’s faily large and I might use it as my new makeup bag! It also came with 2 catalogs. The latest Spring/Summer 2010 catalog and a special edition 15 years catalog that includes 2 pages from all their previous catalogs. I want to scan a few pages in of both. Their new S/S 2010 looks are soooooo nostalgic-vintage-casual! I forget how wonderful their warmer weather looks are sometimes~
And the 15th Anniversary catalog has Rinka in it from 2002! When she had that super short hair.


The bags needs to air out a little though. They smell like pool toys because of the plastic used for putting the logo onto the jean material. I described it as “pool lining” while Mike went for “inflatable killer whale pool toy” smell.
I have some photos from the weekend I figured I’d dump here too! I had such a great weekend! It was really hard getting back to work today to be honest. BTW I decided I’m wearing glitter eyemake all week! I usually avoid wearing glitter makeup to work because it’s sorta seen as childish. But I wore a lot of it on Sunday and fell back in love with all my glitter makeup. So screw it! I’m gonna wear glitter all week! I miss my glitter makeup!

No Wig, No Life (99) 

A few weeks ago I posted this video~~ It’s about how the use of “fashion wigs” has gone up 207% in 2009! They got many girls to remove their wigs in public. They also did a comparison in the amount of time it took to get one’s hair ready. As you can see below the full wig took 4 minutes while curling ones hair took 31 minutes!

watch video
*sorry, embedding was disabled*
Seriously!? Wigs are a freakin’ time-saver!? I never thought of it that way!
And I started thinking, what if I really did buy a wig? For fun!? For cam whoring? For actually wearing??!!! For putting on 7am on Saturday morning when Mike wants to “do a Starbucks run” that morphs into us being out for hours on end at stores and cafes~~!! Because that happens A LOT. At night too. When I think we’re not going out and I remove all my make and my hair is crap we suddenly decide to do random date night and I end up going out looking like a soccer mom. To at least have perfect hair would be AMAZING~!

I feel bad too because I think the wig kinda looks better


Many girls choose for the wig-parts instead. Like clip-in extensions or hair bun pieces. This girl is using hair bun piece, but I love how HUGE of a fan her friend must be of Wakatsuki Chinatsu! She even looks like her with the full nude make going on & decked out in W
C! Hahahah, すごい~~~ so cute!

Under the “read more” there are a lot of photos (50+) so beware if you’re on your phone or something~~

My Style Muses (57) 

As much as I love fashion magazines, when it comes to the models that actually “inspire” me I look more at their blogs for looks rather than what they’re wearing in a photo shoot. I’m just more interested in what THEY choose to wear out!! Some models really do stick to their magazine’s style, but some tend to gravitate towards a more relaxed version of what you’d see them wearing in magazines. Or maybe they prefer one style more often than you’d guess from the magazine spreads. I’m rambling.
Anyway~
I wanted to do a picture post! Mostly of Popteen models but some others thrown in. Of girls daily wear outfits and not magazine photoshoots!
Also, for the model blogs I follow DAILY you can find the links in my LINKS SECTION.
Before I post model pictures, these are from the SNAP BOMBER section of Popteen. I scanned these in last week before I got sick, haahaa! Just gals’ outfits that were submitted. Usually they’re super tiny photos on the bottom of the page. I find these SO inspiring because they’re everyday girls rocking the styles and it seems attainable seeing these girls pull it off! It’s one of my favorite sections of Popteen. I want to start scanning these in more often and sharing them~
