But the interesting thing we can take away from this is a point that NBC producer Ken Strickland made that I think is great. It's that Harry Reid, no matter what happens, he is showing to the liberal base that he has done...
In my attempt to bring back the '80s (I don't think I ever mentioned this, but I will now: I'm trying to induce an '80s redux), I've been breaking out the leg warmers. They make me feel a little kitty-ish but it's okay, as it's all in the name of the eighties. I've been rewatching (for about the hundredth time each) the John Hughes classics (uhm, Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, Ferris...
I BEAT SWINE FLU!!!! Yes, it's true! After a week of moping around the house, doped up on Vicodin, I've finally fully recovered from the horrors of H1N1. Glory is mine! For those who've not been cursed with this plague yet, basically it feels like someone beat you up with a lead pipe (Ms Scarlett, in the ballroom'). But that is over with now, and I can appreciate life in a new light. And I'll start...
In the 1930s, that glorious first decade after the movies learned how to talk, Hollywood was the sum of its studios, each with its own distinct brand and personality. MGM, the glossiest of them all, boasted that it had "more stars than there are in the heavens," which hardly seemed an exaggeration.
Yesterday's photoshoots went really well. We had three of them back to back in Swansea and it took about eight hours. Each turned out completely different, and I love them all! Here are my favourites... #5: Emily V For Emily we wanted to do a Madmen-style pin up set. I did her hair with hot rollers, but all the clothes are hers, she did her own makeup, and the natural light was perfect. This has been...

The term “It Girl” was first coined by Elinor Glyn in 1927 to characterize up-and-coming starlet Clara Bow. Glyn, a well known novelist and screenwriter of the times, boldly described her new turn of phrase, ‘”IT’ is that quality possessed by some which draws all others with its magnetic force. With “IT” you win all [...]

Go away. Why won't you leave? What is it about me that beguiles you, so that you seem incapable of turning away and heading downhill, even after I make express request that you do? Come on, now, go on. What are you waiting for, your mother's dinner call? Oh, I see, you want a reading before you go. Hmmmph. Is that all I'm good for, to you? What a relief! This means that you'll be going away as soon...
These are the dark lippies from Chanel's Noirs Obscurs Collection. The lipsticks are heavily pigmented, vampy shades that vary from chocolate to blue violet. The color pay off is outstanding.
