Thank you Leisure Dive and Thrillist for some hilarious pictures that had me giggling for the first hour of work. But then, all I could think about was going swimming, which in turn made me think about this song and it’s 2 versions. Which do you . . . → Read More: Friday Music – Who Sung it Better – Waves Today’s post is all about other posts – calls to action, meditations on time/space, a profile on a great NYC writer, and a hilarious rant about how writers should be rock stars. Sometimes the interwebs is just too full of good stuff to pass up. There has been talk of a Keystone pipeline, a means of transporting some . . . → Read More: Link City New Yorks sweetheart that has become one of the hottest designers to be featured during Fashion Week since 2009, (her success has actually catapaulted since ’09, yet she has been an up and coming designer since 2000) It may be the middle of July, but I speak for myself and quite a few New Yorkers when I . . . → Read More: Charlotte Ronson Last Friday, the day that blew all the hottest day records right off the chart. The day where people walked around with shoulders slumped and faces turning red in the sun.

Tonight at 7 . . . → Read More: What To Do This Weekend Two specific fashion collaborations are coming up, and I think they may go the way of Julian Louie and Aldo Shoes (aka SOLD OUT). One is H&M’s upcoming fall collaboration with designers from Versace Fashion House. The sneak peeks are actually quite exciting, showing lots of bright colors, pretty details and demure silouhettes. It’ll be . . . → Read More: Fashion Collaborations That Make Me Melt Carl J. Schramm, president of the Kaufmann Foundation, posted a wonderful article on the Huffington Post this morning about how to really jumpstart our economy. The brunt of it is talking about how new businesses have positively affected the economy over the last 30 years. Most of his argument (suggestions?) hinges on this because he wants to . . . → Read More: Financial Problems Solved! I’ve been hearing dire talk about the lack of female role models in the world today, and it gave me pause.
