Long Time, No SeeWhat I'm Wearing: Hello Dahhhling

Today I wore a forest green simple maxi dress that I picked up at forever 21 for $14.90 this past weekend. I am so in love with this color for fall and I want so many more pieces in it! It serves at the perfect blank slate for accessories. Today I chose a leopard print infinity scarf, wide woven brown belt, menswear watch and boots as my accessories.  I can also see layering this in so many fun ways for fall.

Hello my beauties! How are you all doing? I cannot get on a schedule where my blogging is consistent. For that, I apologize. I've been missing all of you and missing commenting on all of your blogs too! I actually wore this outfit yesterday to work. My mom picked me up several neon belts at A'gaci while she was in Texas on vacation and I was dying to bust one out.

Is anyone else just absolutely adoring neon accessories as much as I am? I think it's the true 80s child coming out in me. I went for a retro loop on the front of my ponytail too. I was just really wanting to be a throwback I suppose. I really liked this outfit and the way the neon danced off the navy dress background. Cute, no?

Hello my fabulous fellow fashionistas! Halter Prom Dresses uk Are you all having a great week? I hope so.  I went as one of the representatives of maurices to a Chamber of Commerce event at the country club this morning so naturally I had to bring a bit of glamor. I just love this derby hat. It makes me feel fabulous. Polka dots, bow adorned heels and a fabulous hat is a no-fail combo in my opinion. I got tons of compliments on this all day. What do you think of it?

Femininity The Choice For 2012 Prom Dresses

Poetry is the runt of the litter when it comes to the arts. Most people see it as a pretentious teenage whim or a way of taking a bucket-load of clichés and putting them in a rhyming blender to see what happens. Roses are red, we get it already. For most, some of the great poets like Ginsberg, Blake and Notley are names that most will never know.

Makyla Curtis, the current editor of Potroast a zine which features on work that’s experimental and exploratory, be it visual or literary, has a different take. “If you view poetry in the same way as art, and look for the same things, they are the same. The only hard thing about poetry is that you can’t glance at it and know you want to keep looking, not like in art.” view more

“Rebel Press is a not-for-profit anarchist publishing collective based in Te Whanganui ? Tara.”

This is an official line from Ali Nissenbaum, one of the minds behind the collective that has been working diligently since 2006 to bring Anarchist and Radical literature of all shapes and sizes to the people of New Zealand. Rebel Press started from humble beginnings, in a place where many a sound, radical outlet for ideas and expression has been fostered for hundreds of years; a university.Long Prom Dresses

“Torrance and I were bored in a sociology lecture, and he randomly said to me ‘wouldn’t it be cool to start an anarchist publishing press?’, says Nissenbaum. ‘I was like, ‘yep sure’ not thinking it would ever actually happen. The next week he showed up to uni with a book he’d made by hand after looking up instructions on YouTube. So it turns out he was damn serious.”view more

“I have this strange obsession with Princess Diana and pictures of meat.” Everyone, meet Hana Aoke, creator of My Dreary Modern Life and ziner since the age of 11. She also has a little sister who’s Tumblr famous (currently age 12 and has racked up 200 followers on Facebook as well) and an artistic liking towards commercial exhibition displays like the ones in Briscoes and the meat displays in supermarkets “I just stare at different cuts [of meat], there’s no picture of which part of the body they came from… it’s just a lump of dead animal with lights shining on it and cold air coming out of it, I mean that’s a full-on sensory art experience right there.”view more

The Returned ‘Lucy’ – Series 1, episode 6

SPOILERS: Do not watch this if you have not seen episode 6 series 1 of ‘The Returned’

For the first time in the series the titular character of the episode is the most interesting one. Where did Lucy come from? Why did she pick this town? Why was she travelling alone without any money? Was she a revenant before she arrived in town, and why is she so sexually driven? There is such a richness to her. She reminds me of a Miranda July character: obsessed by death, a sexual quirk, and a simple curiosity to allow room for thought.Open Back Dresses

But her characterisation points to something more universal about the show, and how it has elevated to stunning new heights. We have now arrived at a point where the revenants have developed far beyond the stock character, or even an amalgamation of stock characters. They are now commanding full personas.view more

The 10th anniversary of the death of David Kelly might have been an occasion to restore some balance to the debate about the Iraq war, which I have tried to do in the updated edition of my biography of Tony Blair (there is an extract here; download the e-book here or buy the paperback here).

In The Independent on Sunday, however, I have taken part in an unsatisfactory debate with Miles Goslett, who persists in propounding the conspiracy theory that Dr Kelly was murdered.

I say unsatisfactory because I felt Goslett refused to engage with the starting point of his case, which is that his demand for a new inquest presumes that murder was a serious possibility. It is frustrating trying to engage with someone who talks about the supposed absence of fingerprints and other details without explaining why he thinks they matter.view more

Having spent a comfortable night at the dog-friendly Burlington Hotel in Sheringham on Wednesday, we set off towards Norwich. BBC Norfolk was on the car stereo and we were thrilled to hear them trailing ahead to our interview about the Barking Blondes book on the afternoon show.

Organza Prom Dress

Shortly after a track from 1976, there followed an item concerning a local funeral director attempting to deal with an increase in requests for dogs and their owners to be buried together. Not all human cemeteries accept dogs and for those who don’t consider that dogs have souls, it’s inappropriate maybe, to allow them to be buried on consecrated ground.

This then led on to the question of what to do if your dog was to outlive you. Would it be immoral to ask for your pet to be euthanized in order for the two of you to end your days together? Even if the animal was young and healthy?

We decided to talk about this on our radio show and we were met with a deluge of incensed callers. Every single one of them accusing the thought as selfish and ethically wrong – to end a life prematurely even an animal’s life.view more

In An English Country Garden.

Fran and Duncan have got the balance of rustic AND glamorous just right. The combination of gorgeous wild flowers, candelabras and pastel tones for the wedding party alongside the simple interior of the barn and the beautiful Hampshire country side is perfect.

It’s romantic and whimsical but also sleek and stylish. And looks effortlessly so at that.

I’m so pleased that it was important to Fran to have a dress that was sexy and unusual – and her gown is definitely both. It fits her like a glove and she shines out from every single photo.V-Neck Prom Dresses uk

When it comes to first dances, Fran and Duncan have hit that nail on the head too. I’ve always thought I’d be too shy to have a choreographed first dance, but the images of this lovely pair have made me re-evaluate my opinion – Duncan and Fran look so elegant and lost in the moment, despite all of the watching eyes.

All of this fabulousness was captured forever by Guy Collier.view more
