Alice in Fashionland...


Tim Burton and Alice in Wonderland go together likes bats and caves.  Well aren’t they all just our favorite things!!  So we are super duper 3-D shades excited for March 5th and the opening of Alice In Wonderland in 3-D.

Zac Posen and Pamela Love are designing an awesome line of Alice jewelry. What the f is this amazingness?  This stuff is all so freaking creepy cool I couldn’t decide which pics to share. And actually this Pamela Love chick is pretty badass…. She also has a line of WTWTA jewelry, which is so awesome And she has a True Blood line in the works??  I swear she is our kindred tree friend. And I think she reads our blog.   Love it as much as we do?  Check out the Spring lookbook

Urban Decay has come out another Book of Shadows. And yay for us its Alice themed!!

Here’s what the site says: “Open the palette to reveal a pop-up scene of Alice in the mushroom forest. Her “drink me” bottle discarded, she staggers past towering mushrooms, only to cross paths with a very peculiar, hookah-smoking caterpillar. A large mirror rests behind the scene – you feel as if you are transported into the film itself.

Hidden inside a secret drawer are 16 best-selling Eyeshadows, given topsy-turvy names like White Rabbit, Jabberwocky and Oraculum. Alongside them lie travel sizes of Eyeshadow Primer Potion and two 24/7 Eye Pencils.”

Ok. WOW.  We NEED to have this. Urban Decay, Tim Burton, Disney, and Alice in Wonderland? Yes, please and thank you.

There is a nailpolish collection too, by our fave nailpolish line, OPI

Names and Colors:
Absolutely Alice (blue glitter)
Mad as a Hatter (multi-colored glitter)
Off With Her Red!  Thanks So Muchness! (shades of red)




 
Sue Wong has a line of dresses, some of which are pretty cute.  A little too feminine for my taste but still worth mentioning.

Even Bath and Body Works is in on the action with their Goldie Line: Alice lip plump   … but its out of stock so must have been popular!

"It would be so nice if something made 

sense for a change."  ~Alice

"Twinkle, twinkle, little bat! 
How I wonder what you're at."  ~The Hatter

BETTER THAN SMURFS

Last night I finally went to see Avatar.  In 3D.  I don’t know that I can ever see a movie not in 3D again, and I am sure I want to see every 3D movie they showed.  #1 being Alice in Wonderland and #2 How to Train a Dragon.  The second is mostly because I figure that’s a skill I will need to take over the world.

I thought Avatar was amazing and I am pretty sure I lived there with them.  Like to the point where I questioned my own humanity.  So did Dustin.  The graphics were clearly amazing but I was down with   the story line too.  At one point I realized I still knew what was going on and that made me happy.  I felt morally conflicted but in a good way.  I hate long movies and this one made me feel like it was real life and so i was cool with it.  At the end I actually said "Can we do that again?"  It may have destroyed all regular movie watching for me for life.  It was worth it.

I must admit that there was a point when blue dude made a reference to a “situation” and myself and 3 companions bust out into a fit of laughter.

I am pretty sure I want to be: (and I totally get why people fall in love with the blue lady)


I am sure I am in love with:



Facts that support my opinion:


Avatar as been No. 1 at the box office for six consecutive weeks.

It's official: Avatar is the highest-grossing movie ever, with tallies coming in at $1.86 billion.

Avatar became the most expensive movie ever made, at more than $300 million US.

WEASEL WEDNESDAY #1: BAD ROMANCE EDITION



We all make stupid mistakes when it comes to the opposite sex.
I have officially decided… today is the day to stop.
Its time to stop blaming them and start looking for the signs. Justin Long says it best when he says (S)He’s just not that into you.
And if he’s not who cares.
Let’s call them out on it. If you have a stupid sign you missed, post it as a comment. And for Pete’s sake please put them out there. Otherwise Tuesday Bluesday will turn into Wahh wahh Wednesday. And we don’t want that.
IF:
10. He can’t talk to a girl without flirting with her…
9. If he isn’t telling you he likes you… he’s just not that into you. (or even if he is)
8. If you find out he is dirty texting your friends the same thing he’s dirty texting you….
7. You find yourself in a room with his ex girlfriend and a girl he is seeing but didn’t know about…
6. If he is sleeping with other people….
5. If he dates you for over 3 months and still doesn’t “officially” call you his girlfriend….
4. He sleeps with his ex girlfriend less than 24 hours after sleeping with you…
3. If given the chance between you and a stripper, he chooses the stripper…
2. He sleeps with your best friend while you are all in the room together…
1. He says your theme song is Bad Romance…
HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU.
Hugs and happiness.
Is it normal this list reminds me of purple leopard print? Maybe its my inner teen rawring out.

WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE


So I just got to go to a very special screening of the Where the Wild Things are movie with one of my favorite people. She knows how much I love it and worked very hard to get me a ticket. My son's room is decorated to revolve around the theme, as will his first birthday party. Let the Wild Rumpus start. She is the same person who would bring me home men's WTWA tees from Urban Outfitters when I was too fat to fit in my small ones. So i wore my small tee all day to represent. (I was very excited) but luckily changed out of it before the screening so i did not look like "that girl." So we got there nice and early and took our perch in the back row overlooking all the hipsters. She proclaimed these were the "blow job seats" and that she was hoping to get some. Did it work? I'll never tell. So the scenery was great (hipsters all dressed alike but thinking they are so original) but the movie was even better. I loved it from the first scene. I don't want to give away too much on here because I hope you will all go see it. The kid who played Max was great, it was a great play on the book, it was funny and even relatable. Everything was awesome, the soundtrack, the effects, the concepts, the voices, I can't say enough great things about it. Go Wild Things!!!!!
