of vouchers already. I am officially rubbish at using up vouchers. They usually run out. I'm so conscious of spending them wisely, I procrastinate. These are cute though. Ta Viv...

Farrelly Bros props
Accidentally ended up watching There's Something About Mary the other night. I completely forgot how fucking funny it is. Such a shame that people tend only to remember it for that stupid (albeit funny the first time around) scene. And also, Sarah Silverman's in it. Did you know that the Cardozo, the hotel that Ted stays in when in Miami is really owned by Gloria Estefan? Nah, neith did I.
"Husband... negative. Children and a Labrador... negative. Tight little package... affirmative."
Ted: I think I still want to look her up.
Pat Healy: Who, rollerpig? Are you nuts?
Ted: You said she was a real sparkplug.
Pat Healy: No, I said buttplug. She's heinous.
The last time I had a pap smear, the guy needed leather gloves and an oyster shucker.

stupid christmas parteeeez
Our all-Agency one insists on us adhering to a "theme". What a fucking terrible idea. Worse when you consider that the theme in question is "NATUTICAL BUT NICE". Bleurgh. It probably came about in the following way:
X: "Hey, how about we have a theme for the christmas party? that will be really fun, what with people having to get dressed up in really funny outfits?!"
Y: "Yeah! that's a great idea! Oh, but hang on....there is a recession on, and people might not want to spend money on outfits that the may only wear once.....how about we pick a theme which will be really easy to stick to from clothing people already have?"
X: "Great idea! What about......STRIPES! EVERYONE'S WEARING STRIPES!!...YEAH! NAUTICAL...BUT NICE!! That's do-able right?? it doesnt matter that no-one will look very authentic and everyone will look generically French does it?? NO! lets do it!"
Or how I imagine it to have gone anyway.
I have been researching naval girls from the 40's as I am taking this very seriously. Jewellery obviously isnt a priority, but I've kind of got stuck looking at some of the sweetheart pieces from that period. WELL cute.

So Sofie
Is my lovely friend from noo yawk. She is mad though to be fair. Today she told me that she has been using some meds they use for glaucoma patients on her eyelashes to make them grow. Like I said - mad.
However, since eyelash-gate in August ( I had to let my real ones fall out as they'd been welded to some fake Brixton trash ones what was evidently TAR) mine now resemble stubby toothbrushes. Not LOL at all.
I am tempted to try this magic potion. That makes me mad too, right? Better to be mad than have a rubbish face though, non? They are gonna BANG ME UP if I ask for that shit in Boots...

Not what you might think.
Just appreciating use of the space, s'all.

I don't like them but I cannot fault this piece of inspired ad-marketing. Best of all, its from Cheesestrings my top processed vice.
Sentiment > Execution
so I stumbled upon these on lochers.com - can't say I'm keen on the finished article but the messaging is BANG ON. I'll be getting my yarn on this weekend...

A delectable pairing
Dominic Jones' new collection - fangs, thorns, GOLD. What's not to like? Not even the press shots to be honest. *covets*
Now where exactly am I gonna get some silver metal talons....

As much as I enjoy this video, I am vitriolic with confusion. I get GaGa. I know what she's about. I appreciate her creative vision and commend her bravery and nudity (yes, nudity, she has a stonking body so why not show it off). However, this only lends to confound my utter confusion as to why she would pollute such striking visuals and great storytelling with such blatent product placement.
I'm loathed to propogate this shit any further than necessary, but...I...can't...stop....myself. No fussed on the song or the dancing, but I can't...stop.....watching....her (andheramazingsungoggsthanks).

The aforementioned Eric Testroete, is also responsible for this little genius offering. A giant paper head modelled on his own image, created using computer geo wire-frames. Freaky-deeky I think you'll find....

Daihatsu revealed this little number at the Tokyo Motor Show. Functional, boxy (in a cute way), in pastel, with a removable roof - what's not to love huh??...

I don't think this was much of a stretch for him. Fans have whinged though and his site's just taken it down. Spike Jonze directs. Sublime....

8. Cashmere pyjamas
9. A harem pant that gives me an arse to speak of
10. A chainmail waistcoat - I'm not even kidding
11. A Wang bag wouldn't go amiss either but I fear this list has already got out of hand...
12. ....oh! And a Blanmange rabbit mould. There.
