Name Update!!

Hi Everyone..I wanted you all to know that I am switching over my link from https://active4fashion.wordpress.com to http://activeforfashion.com Please update your links!

Thanks!!

Can I just say I am super stoked for this movie to come out. Watching the trailers it seems as though K-Stew has lost her annoying stumbling act when she talks. She better do Joan Jett justice. 🙂

Eclipse

I just got the Chills!! Ahhh!

My style Muse for this week is Krysten Ritter.

Krysten Alyce Ritter (born December 16, 1981) is an American actress and former model. She appeared in the films What Happens in Vegas (2008), 27 Dresses (2008) and Confessions of a Shopaholic (2009), and had recurring roles in the television series Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars, and ‘Til Death. She was the lead in “Valley Girls” (an episode of The CW’s Gossip Girl), was featured in the AMC television drama series Breaking Bad, and will appear in the romantic comedy She’s Out of My League (2010). I love her elegant romantic style. Most notable are her strapless A-Line dresses.

This week has been the week to end all weeks. I have been so busy with work and other issues that have been going on with work that it has been a nightmare. Thankfully, it is Wednesday and I just have two more days and then the weekend. Phew! Happy Wednesday

What’s On Your Stero?

This morning while I was getting ready I always have my ipod playing and rocking out while I blow dry my hair and find something to wear. I scrolled down and came upon 311 and started to play their self titled album 311. BROUGHT ME BACK! So..in lieu of my 27th birthday coming up, I decided to write down some memorable items in the 90’s which was the time that I was growing up. Today we’ll start with what I was listening to in the 90’s. Its pretty eclectic which is how I still am!

So..To Kick off the list..The repeated item that played CONSTANTLY in my TAPE PLAYER was Green Day’s Album, Dookie. Basket Case was my favorite song! haha! When I Come Around was right up there with it. This was my first tape that had bad language in it..hehe! Love it..Billy Joe I fell in love with!

Next..I had No Doubt’s, Tragic Kingdom. Gwen..rockin’ her AMAZING wardrobe signing “I’m Just a Girl.” I was so jealous of her style back then. To this day I’m still Jealous of it. 🙂

To mellow out my mood..The Verve Pipe..Freshman. I was listening to this on Youtube this morning and seriously forgot how much I LOVE this song! I was talking to my sister through Instant Message and wrote out the lyrics for her..just in case she forgot the song. hehe!

Bringin’ it to the Grunge phase..Nirvana, Smells Like Team Spirit. Amazing song. STILL love this album.

Lastly..When my sister was in high school she dated a guy that absolutely loved Sublime..which then in turn I started to listen to. I had to listen to what the “cool kids” were listening to. Plus..My sister use to tease me because I had a little crush on her boyfriend. hehe!

Wow..I could go on and on..but this just gives you a brief glimpse of what was playing on my Boom Box Circa 1993! Happy Tuesday!

Award Night

Welcome back to the new week..Monday Monday..Ugh! Last night the Academy Awards were on, and normally I don’t watch them, but I was intrigued to see the outfits and who was going to win in each category. Take a look at what some of the stars had to wear..

I love love Kate Winslet

I was so excited she won for Best Actress!

She also gave a great Acceptance speech! I love Sandra Bullock!

Love Tina Fey and Elizabeth Banks

Ben Stiller was just disturbing..but oh so funny

Okay..So..I am so sorry, but Kathy Ireland was so uncomfortable to watch. She did this weird thing with her right hand the whole time and her hair was a nightmare. I am so sorry..but it is so true.

Kathy Ireland

Happy Friday to everyone. This week as I was surfing the World Wide Web I found some incredible links..Lets Share the Love..

Wren Clothing
Wren Clothing posted their new Spring Collection..Yay! I want one of everything. 😀

As I was looking at Hellz’s blog I came across Gemma from Fade to Black and have absolutely fell in love. She has great style and I love the lipstick she rocks.

Amber from Them Dry Bones has some great items for sale on her Etsy site. She is my friend’s wife and I must say she is quite talented. 😉

Following up on my Typography love that I have, I was looking on Lettercult and found this amazing Typographist (is that a word?) I just made it up so yes it is. 🙂 His name is Jon Contino..Amazing

Happy Friday!

Style Muse: Alexa Chung

Model..TV Host..Journalist..This is just some of the lines of work that Alexa Chung is known for. Alexa Chung already has a loyal following across the pond as a cheeky TV personality and model. Now the 25-year-old Brit is charming us stateside as the coolest MTV host since Downtown Julie Brown. As with her predecessor, it’s Chung’s irreverent spin on conventional dressing (she wears H&M with Chanel) that’s also leaving quite the impression. “I hate dressing up,” she says. “I never feel like me.” Instead, the self-proclaimed tomboy prefers the more laid-back vibe of her style icon, pop chanteuse Françoise Hardy. “She always looked sexy without wearing ass-skimming or boob-flashing clothes.” Here, Alexa Chung does it her way. -Marie Claire

This Morning as I was looking onto my now new favorite website Lettercult They were posting the new Alphabattle..Here are some of the postings. Have a Wonderful Wednesday!

Rainy Day Fun..

A little late on this..meant to post it on Monday, but at least its not Friday! LOL. Over the weekend I decided to host a Crochet Party. I invited over some of my friends that wanted to learn how to Crochet, we popped open a bottle of red wine and had some delicious treats and crocheted all day. It was such a fun time! Great girl time and I was surprised that EVERYONE there learned how to get their Slip Knot down and their Chain stitches working! hehe! I hope to host another craft party sometime soon! So much fun ladies!

Chicken Salad Mitten and Sock Sandwiches!
