you are getting verrrrrry sleepy!

There is not a whole lot I like better than... well, hmmm. Let's just say, I love to sleep. I made a rule with friends and family that they aren't allowed to call on weekends until double-digits. Better still if it's 'single digits again' in my book!

Even on the nicest of days sleeping in until 1, 2, 3 o'clock is not a bad thing in my book. I love bedding, beds, sleepwear, linen spray, bedstands, --anything that makes sleep more stylish and comfortable is just gosh darn ducky.... Egyptian cotton, down feather beds & comforters, custom duvet covers hand made of silk in Thailand. If it makes my sleep more fun, comfortable or last longer - I'm all about it!

my favorite on-screen audrey hepburn fashion is not the gorgeous jewelry, big sunglasses, and kickass mini-tiara she wears whilst having 'breakfast at tiffany' in the opening credits















or her 'little black dress', "aligator shooooz" and sun-hat for visiting Sally Tomato in Jail...



what i do love seeing her in, is the sleepwear and AWESOME sleep ecoutrements that she sports when answering the door for George Peppard one early afternoon in the film.










that is my favorite! I mean seriously - a sleep mask decorated with glitter and sequins and eyelashes and earplugs with tassles, and a tuxedo style sleep shirt that buttons up the back!

What better sleep attire could there be!?

I also fell in love with the black silk pajamas that Winona Ryder wore in Beetlejuice, and insisted my mother get me a pair - stat!

So you can imagine my excitement when I found that one of my favorite bloggers wrote a book on sleep positions - which I've been promising myself to buy every day since it's release - then I rationalize it by saying I'll get it at the release party/book signing... (wink wink)....

The fun thing is - Evany - my partner in sleep-crime created a fun mini site for the book and there is a great test that shows you what your sleep pose is!

Find your own pose!

Switch...

notice anything different?

well this post is being written on my new Mac - intel duo core iMac. I now have an iLife!!!!! how exciting is that?

I was brainstorming to see what my 'switch' commercial would be about....

not parfaits.... not zines....

fashion??
maybe.

Now that I've switched and I'm online shopping with the new computer, it seems much much smoother, and I feel cooler having that slick white well designed machine helping me find better designed clothing. You'd think that using the sony laptop i had before, I'd be more in touch with the hip, cutting edge Japanese fashion, but.... no, now I feel so much more hip and in the know, and elite with my Apple... you know Apple is the name of a very famous movie star and rock star's child.... that probably helps a little, seeing as Apple as a company is based in San Jose/Cupertino/Silicon Valley if you will... (which I feel I must mention here is my hometown...)

Wait - do the die hards actually call them Apples or are they called Macs? uh oh. Anyway, I feel that since I've switched to a better designed machine now, that I'm able to identify and purchase much more fashionable items while shopping online. I feel like somehow that's communicated to the places that I'm buying from and they're practically pulling out the 'good stuff' from the back room or something, as if they know now that I'm a true design afficianado, ya know?

UGG....

....lee!!!!

So apparently Uggs have become the new commuter shoe for women. Once upon a horrible time in the 80s women would wear socks and trainers with their suit-skirts and hose to make their commute time walking more comfortable and less damaging to their feet.

In the past years it changed to the flip flop since 'sans-hose' became the trend.

Now the winter time commuter shoe has turned to the Ugg. SOOO GROSS - it's almost like seeing someone in bedroom slippers.... wrong. and the dumbest version of this awful abomination is when the women are sloshing through rain puddles in their sueded glamorized bedroom slippers.

I think what we have on our hands in general is a case of commuter-foot. (as opposed to athletes foot...)

Really?

Is there really nothing going on in the world that *this* is front page/portal news?! wow.
