It's Okay Sarah

Last night while I was strenuously working out at the gym, CNN (oh, just my favorite channel to watch) came on and was reporting the scandalous story about the Republican National Committee that spent more than $150,000 on her clothes and make up. And then, the other TV had Access Hollywood on with the same story. It is so annoying to hear these dumb, worthless issues broadcast all over TV. There are images of shoes, jackets, suits - I mean look at Hillary Clinton, her suits are an array of every color! People should just really focus on the campaign and less on the BS.

Here is my issue about her clothing...the woman has got to look good! Like seriously, are you going to put the possible VP of the USA in some scrappy clothes? Um, yeah, I don't think so. She is the underdog and taking on something new is challenging, especially for the fact that she is a woman. I am proud that she gave it what she could, even if she came across a little "out there." It is funny that CNN also tried to make her look dumber during an interview this week. Hm. That's just my 2 cents.

Confused

Still confused.

This is Getting RIDIC

This cute little sugar pie from Florida was called racist by her 7th grade classmates for wearing a McCain/Palin shirt says Fox News! WHAT!! This poor 12 year-old cutie :( See, this is what makes me a little MAD about OBAMA supporters. I'm scared to put a NOBAMA sticker on my car because I feel like it will get beaten with bats! These people are crazier than the Red Neck Republicans down south! I think that parents need to show their children all sides before just planting them with their own beliefs. So what if this sugar-bee likes McCain and Palin? Another example of this was an inner-city school that displayed Obama advertisements above where the children entered school, and the teachers also passed out Obama buttons. OKAY WAIT - these are young kids, and I understand teachers play a role in shaping their minds, but don't force politics on them! LET THEM SEE BOTH SIDES. GAAAH people these days. I am going to start forcing Britney Spears on everyone and see how they like it. And then repeat Fran Drescher's laugh over and over and over and over.

OHHH MAH, Adult Swim Makes Shoes?

Yah Yah, all you Adult Swim nerds can not only watch and drool over your fav shows, but now you can wear them. Woooooo Hooo!! Aqua Teen Hunger Force time! I actually thought these shoes were dope, so I had to share this with everyone - the Aqua Teen Hunger Force Ignigknot Etnies Shoes. Cool to all you Adult Swim junkies. Live on...ariba. areeba? aryyba?

I just hope they don't come out with a Family Guy shoe - now that would be a little over doing it.

Lyrics that made me Melt

During my morning coffee before I started work, I sat down and read Paste Magazine. Every issue they include sample CDs, so as usual, I popped it in my lap top and listened to every song. I was not totally impressed with the CD until track 16 came on. It came on while I was in the middle of working on a project and I just stopped everything and melted to the lyrics, acoustic feel and incredibly hot, seductive voice of Matt Hires. He is such an incredible artist from Tampa, FL. I HIGHLY suggest listening to this if you love acoustic music. I can totally see this song, "Honey let Me Sing You a Song" appearing in movies and TV shows. Gaaaaah this dudes amazing. Maybe I'll have him play at my wedding...if I ever have one, or ask him to come over....and sing to...me.....

I'm still listening to it. Matt, hey Matt, if you're out there, you're on repeat.

The Raddest Little Thang On Your Wrist

Oh baby look at this nice representation of the 80's - my prime years. I cannot get enough of Freestyle's Shark Cyan watch. For $55 bucks this baby lasts a lifetime. I recently bought one for surfing because not only is this watch hot, but it is waterproof, snow proof, beer proof, you name it and it's proof. I love this thang and it gets more attention than my, well, yeah....

They come in many colors. Check them out at www.freestyleusa.com

The company even sent me 2 free shirts and stickers. Whoa man, nice. Surf's up and leg warmers on.

Palin's Approved

Okay, Sarah Palin did not come out of the woods. If all you avid Vogue readers will recall, they had a Democratic and Republican spread in the Feb. 2008 issue. Here, Palin is revealed. Although people may not take her seriously, I think she is doing a damn good job keeping her cool and being herself, even though many will claim she is inexperienced. However, I admire smart, determined women who can get up on stage and take the heat of pissed off, rude people. Check out the zinger below.

Oh, and one more thing that makes me a little upset and mad at liberals is the fact when I am walking around (giving an example when I was in California recently, which is a VERY liberal state) with a McCain sticker on, people were actually yelling at me. I don't disregard any Obama supporters - I respect their opinions and beliefs. I thought California was a free speech state, yeah man, speak your mind. Guess I was wrong. Palin's got my vote.

California Chronicles: Wine Country

QUINTESSA ROCKED.
great wine, great service, vip tour from Darin, stunning facility

GRAPES

darin's showing me grapes

MUMM WASN'T SO COOL, BUT PRETTY.
bad service and the chick never really explained the wines and sparkling champagne, then left and we had to get service from another server, who then explained the NEW sparkling red champagne you can only buy at Mumm.

PARADUXX WAS COOL.

awesome descriptions of wines and beautiful facilities.

Duh - Go to Cali and not visit wine country? Please. It was the best ever - especially if you know someone who works in the industry. Winery's will either give you a discount or complimentary industry tours and free wine tasting. We took advantage of this. We found in our travels that the best places were Paraduxx and Quintessa. Mumm's was horrible service, although they have a great new sparking red champagne that was to die for. Tastings can run from $20 to over $100 - depending on what winery you visit.

California Chronicles: Graffiti

Ever going to visit San Francisco? If you do and don't want to look like a tourist, wonder over to Haight Street, where all the ex-hippies and Grateful Dead heads lives (you can even visit their homes - Joplin, Grateful Dead, Hendrix, etc). The area has awesome stores like True, Stussy and other urban street wear for your closet. Just be nice to the bums - one whipped out an iPhone on us.

Oh and avoid the Tenderloin district. Sketcccccchy (Jones St. that is), unless you want to buy crack at 1 in the afternoon from a man in a wheelchair.

California Chronicles: Food for Thought

Or:

Would you rather cook a meal or share your meal?

Cali Chronicles: This Man

Driving through the streets of San Francisco - where UC of Berkley is - we came across this homeless man that totally wins for the most fashionable bum I have ever seen. Like seriously, look at his coat, then look at the impeccable red undershirt that matches his awesome red hat. Must have picked through some nice clothes on his way to work on the streets. Next he needs some dentures.

FOUPHLEX APPROVED IS COMING!

I forgot to mention....I am in the process of building an illnasty website and throwing a launch party for it....so that means no more blog when it launches :( butttt the site is gona be amazing so STAY TUNED!!!

The Teenagers

Okay, so I have totally been lazy with my blogging, but I have been so busy. I just wanted to share this rad band, The Teenagers. Ahhh love them. They are indie/rock/weirdo band that has the greatest style. You cant even classify them in a genre. They dont even have a CD out yet, they only have 5-6 songs. Check em'

Listen the song, Homecoming. Lyrics are nuts.

Lovee it and they have sexy french accents.

FYI PEOPLE COPY MY LIFE

Okay, that is fine and all, but listen to this Page 6 story about Miss Winehouse....they used my WORD CUTLETS!!! This is the story! At least I know I thought of it first :)

this is before the patriots went to hell, and on my shit list. but atleast brady is going home will gisele...and money.

Gillie Goes to Rehab

This is what I looked like this weeked. And no, not because the Patriots lost, because I had a "clearing my head" extended weekend. I'm over it, and back on my game. I ordered neon orange tights and dyed my hair blonde. I thought it was similar to pulling a Britney, but shaving my head would make me look like a man, and unless I had clues that my boyfriend was gay I would totally do it. Yea, I am crazy. Watch out, I'll be on TMZ.com soon.

Absolute Vodka Saving The Planet

I knew this day would come. Thank god, because everyone is jumping on the bandwagon, and I knew Absolute would do the same. fghkjghjkdhf I AM SO HAPPY.....

Nylon Magazine says, "The vodka brand teamed up with Live Earth for ABSOLUT Global Cooling, a year-long global warming initiative to with the catchy tagline, “Every Sip Makes a Statement.” The program kicked off at Sundance, where ABSOLUT hosted the Live Earth Green Screen Lounge, but the bottle you buy at the bar around the corner can help too: Just register its “cocktail code” online and pick which eco-charity you’d like ABSOLUT to donate too, from the Fruit Tree Planting Foundation to the Ocean Foundation."

okay now I'm off to the liquor store....ta ta let me drink while I save the planet. THANKS ABSOLUTE.

I should have been on this show

Damn it. Damn it Damn it. I am kicking myself in the ass for not creating this first. I mean, who doesn't like shows of college girls running around naked, having sex with random objects and funneling beers until they take their panties off? Jeeezzz. So theres this 20 episode show coming out Feb. 4 about "Dorm Life." Wow.

Adage.com says, "The 20-episode Dorm-Life was created, written and directed by a mix of seven current and former college students. The 20-episode mockumentary was created, written and directed by a mix of seven current and former college students, and follows 10 collegians thrown together to live on the same dormitory floor. Mr. Law calls "Dorm-Life" "a platform for organic, not-as-obvious placement" that targets young consumers "wherever they get their media."

I don't know what channel it is on, but I will keep you updated. And I will keep you updated on my guest apperence when I am running in from a Frat party wearing nothing but Hollywood Pimps and Ho's Black Crown hat and my thong, while taking Restless Leg Syndrome perscription meds, with a box of Trojan's.

Is your leg restless? OH NO!

Please take 3 minutes out of your day and watch this...

restless leg syndrome.

Increased gambling...whaaaaaa

Glo Ho's Are Everywhere

Despite the fact I like this clothing line, their models remind me of trashy whores. But it's okay, somebody's gotta do it. Beverly Hills Pimps and Ho's clothing line is normal, standard. Except I really like this hat. I think every lady should have a princess crown above their head at all times...execept these girls...they need more like, of a....hmm....Gardasil shot. This is the Black Crown Hat for $69 bucks.

Me Likey

I am totally on a glowing kick this afternoon. I am obsessed. More obsessed than that Japanese guy rockin the glasses, scarf and bright ass shirt with tight jeans in my previous posts. Look at these dudes; they are ballin. Completely ballin. They don't even need gang chains, they got bright ass colored shirts. Throw the bling bling blang away bust out your bright wear.

Format Magazine says, "RockersNYC is the hot new streetwear line to hit the market. This may sound like a redundant term around these parts, but fresh color palettes and screamingly loud punk designs, give RockersNYC that undeniably staying power."

Kanye West Likes Glowy Shit

What on earth can be better than a glowing bicycle? I mean come on, when I run away from authority, I must make sure that everyone can see me. No but seriously, I think this is ill and I am totally going to invest in one so I can ride down the street at night naked and have everyone staring at my bare ass, while I wear my chicken cutlets and hope to God they fall off so I can have my fans take them and then ask me to sign them with my personalized Sharpie markers (whoaaa that was one long ass run-on sentence, my teachers will be upset with me about that one). Kanye's blog says, "This Spring PUMA® introduces the PUMA GLOW RIDER, the third edition of the PUMA bike. "

Usually high-end designers stick to print ads...but The New York Times states that Louis Vuitton will be advertising on television. This will start on Feb. 15 and consumers will be seeing the ads not only on TV, but in movie theaters around the world. Apparently the campaign is going to show "average" people instead of crack head celebrities like Lohan. So this means, I'm outta the picture. Damn. No more free Louie bags for me.

NY Times says, "“It is supposed to touch our clientele and viewers in ways that perhaps other media will not touch,” said Pietro Beccari, Louis Vuitton’s head of marketing. “This is a way to say Louis Vuitton is different. It is something éphémère, but also something that stays.”

Scarf Obsesstion number 3785893457

My scarf is better. Just stare....yup bitches yup (this is when the chicken cutlets were attached. If you do not know what I am referring to...read the traumatic story below).

ATTACK OF THE CHICKEN CUTLETS

No...these are horrible. This is the second time I have gone out and they have fallen off my tits. They look just like chicken cutlets and they feel like chicken cutlets.

So here's my issh with the chicken cutlets....Last night I went out with the girls to the bar and then a club. There I am, dancing away like a diva on the dance floor, people are everywhere and the place is jam packed. All of a sudden one of the cutlets falls to my belly button, then the other shortly follows. I throw my hands to my chest and check the room to see if anyone is looking; thankfully only like 35 people saw. So I have 2 choices. One, leave the dancing slash lose my girlfriends and two, ditch the cutlets. Option two sounded better. So there I am, trying to act all nonchalantly and I release the cutlets from my pretentious grip, and they drop to the floor, falling down my dress. Then I am stuck in a pickle again because I'm like shit, here are these 2 cutlets on the dance floor and they are bright. I mean, they stuck out. If you saw them on the floor you'd be like damn, who is roasting a chicken tonight? So I blame the dirtay deed on my BCBG shoes and kick them to the side, and then grab my girlfriends hand and drag her away from the crime scene. Just as I kick them away from me, far, far away, I catch this dude staring at me. I almost died(and lets get one thing straight, these things ARE NOT easy to kick away. They stuck to the floor everytime they rolled over. And to make it worse, they jiggled like friggen jell-o). I stare at him for a good minute and mouth, "Don't you even fucking dare tell." He then looks down and the cutlets are right by his feet. I made a quick dash to the other side of the room.

I am just dying to see the reaction of the janitor when he gets a load of those. Hopefully he doesn't try and feed his family with them, because he'll be eating a big roast of fake titties.

Victoriaaaa

"I want to be as famous as Persil Automatic," says Victoria Beckham. Besides the fact that she semi-looks like an alien and is into that Scientology crap, I think this chick has got great style (ignoring her tits and anorexia). Lets dissect her. First off, the hair. I know so many women that have cut their hair to match hers. My mom is a hairdresser and let me tell you, that she has never seen so many requests for Miss Beckhams hair-do. Now, she has been criticised about her outfits, but honestly, she has the balls to wear them. I mean, she has the body, the face and the money, so why not. I know I am going to be getting calls from my boyfriend bitching to me about this, but I'm over it, I'll just send him a shipment of Sharpies.

A book I have by Paul Arden, titled It's Not How Good You Are, It's How Good You Want To Be, has a page about Miss Beckham. The book is kinda like for you're not sure what the hell to do with your life, so I usually ready it on the toilet, because it's one of those quick reads with big fonts. Anyways, he calls her a "world brand." It is totally true. She has made herself into such a well-known celeb.

All in all, I am totally obsessed with her style and choices of outfits. American Apparel has this green tube top dress and she was wearing it recently, and yah I'm a sucker and bought it.

She has started so many trends that have made their way over from London to America. I think we need to thank her, and having the balls to wear some of this obnoxious couture shit. Basically this post is just a rant on how much I love her.

She has worked hard to be where she is today. January 2008 issue of Elle Mag, she quotes,

"I work seven days a week, and I so love what I'm doing. People think I go shopping all day and boss David about."

Amazing, Simply Amazing

I found this on Facebook somewhere in a random album and to my apologise I forget whose album it's from, so if it's yours let me know. But this dude has got crazy style. I actually copied this outfit last night, not even joking. I loveeeee love love it. The sneakers are classic. I frikken love this shit. Obsessed with you dude, whoever you are. He's ready for spring. He should have been in that fashion show below. I'd take this outfit over Lucy Liu's classy puff ball. I am not sure if this photo was intended for a joke, but I love it; he's just missing a fanny-pack.

The Lord from above has saved me. These are simply fantastic. I love the bright colors. Spring is bringing, and I feel as though all the designers are going BRIGHTER every year and that makes me so, so happy. So this morning I became religious and I feel like a new person. I am rejuvenated. Start clapping your hands and singing tunes ladies and gentlemen.

Valentino's 100 Person Dinner

I am not sure what to think of this pink attire. My emotions are mixed. I feel bipolarish. I am about to laugh, then I feel like I am going to start crying, and then bam - I start crying and bitching and moaning to my boyfriend. Okay wait - now since I have been staring at it for a good 20 minutes, I think I like it. Wait...is it warm or heavy? Shit, I hate it. Couldn't Lucy Liu have worn something that wouldn't mess with my bipolar.


Valentino held a 100-person farewell dinner at his Chateau de Wideville. The event was an ultra exclusive affair. He invited me, but I turned down the invite because my Sharpies finally came in the mail, and I could not pass up a night of drawing all over my drunken friends.

Personalized Sharpies

When I read that Sharpies are letting you customize your own sharpies, I almost passed out. I use Sharpies for everything - drawing, doodling, autographing and coloring on my drunken passed out friends. I think this is the greatest thing that has come out, other than Cloverfield, I mean come on, that movie was just so realistic and had the best plot line ever. I bet the writer even used Sharpies to write the script. Sharpie jumped on the Nike train bandwagon and is yet, another company that is letting the consumer do whatever the hell they want with their product. A 6-pack costs $12 and a 12 pack is $22.

You can design your markers with different fonts and even use symbols, like skull and cross bones. I love it. Yea, and you can make hearts and butterflies too.

Please do not use any obscenities or offensive phrases. Be bold, but don't offend!
No celebrity names, please! Unless of course it's YOUR name!
No professional sports team names - we know you love them, but we want to respect their trademarks too!
No names of major events or landmarks.
No product names, trademarked names, copyrighted names or business names! If you need more information on how to get your business' name on a Personalized Sharpie® Permanent Marker, visit www.sanfordb2b.com.
No school/college/university names! Use your imagination to find other ways to show your school spirit!

That didn't turn me away...haha I think it's hilarious, although they may turn down my Nicole Richie personalized pens.

puma and ferrari partner

Puma and Ferrari. Pretty cool. I just bought this hat in Philly at the Puma store for $20 bucks on sale. Although, it is not on sale on the website. I did not even know that Puma and Ferrari have been affiliated, but I think it's a totally rad move. You can see the Puma and Ferrari logo on selective coats and accessories. I heart.

Puma also features, like Nike, a 'create your own' Puma shoe called, Mongolian Barbecue. The company calls it "cook up your own shoe." The catch is they only offer a selected shoe to design, and that my friends is the RS-11 running shoe.

Music: Rogue Wave

Rogue Wave caught my attention when I heard them on the Zune commercial. I fell in love and haven't stopped listening to them since. Maybe you know them from the movie Just Friends; they featured the song Eyes. They are also featured on the Spiderman 3 Soundtrack, with Sightlines. They are a chilled out acoustically sounding band with a great vibe. Their current album out is Asleep At Heaven's Gate, which was released on September 18, 2007. The song, Lake Michigan, which is on the Zune commercial is so good. I cannot even express it. The band is more of an indie/rock band than anything else. Their wicked good, catchy and on tour. It's good driving music or hangin with your crush.

maki maki no good

Sushi, so delicious right? There are some that could die for it and some that will not even go near it, but even if you're not a sushi connoisseur, and you eat tuna fish, or any other species that lurks the deep salty seas, take a look at this...

On Jan 24, 2008, The New York Times posted this, "The international conservation group Oceana has issued a report that found levels of mercury in fresh tuna in stores and restaurants across the United States that were as high as those reported yesterday in a New York Times article on tuna sushi sold in Manhattan."

So what is the deal with mercury? Well if you're pregnant stop eating it. It can cause serious harm to your little fetus. Too much mercury can affect the neurological development of your fetus, states The New York Times.

The New York Times states, "Oceana tested samples of fresh tuna, swordfish and tilapia, as well as tuna and mackerel sushi bought in 26 cities and found that the average mercury concentration of tuna steaks in 23 grocery stores was 0.68 parts per million, even higher than the 0.57 parts per million that was the average for tuna sushi that The Times bought in stores. Swordfish levels were even higher; tilapia and mackerel were very low."

Eeekkkk, so I guess my plan is to limit my sushi intake to like ummmm twice a day. I'm learning to ween myself away, but I can't. ITS SO GOOOOOOOOOD! MOREE TUNA MAKIIII.
