The Filthy Youth...love it.

The other day I was randomly perusing the website and I came upon the band The Filthy Youth who is led by the wonderfully brilliant (okay cute, whatever) actor Ed Westwick who plays Chuck Bass in  Gossip Girl. I had heard he sang and was in some band but never realized what a talented musician he really was.  Check this video out. It's nouveau punk (I just made that up) . It's raw.  It's AWESOME!!!!


I just had a flashback to the 80's: I haven't heard music like this since my so-called punk music stage listening to TSOL's "Dark Sounds of Liberty" /Suburbia soundtrack album of 1983.

No fashion postings as I'm getting ready for Jamaica and thinking about sun and bikinis and frozen drinks.

Great Movies of 2010

I'm trying to recall all the great movies I've seen in 2010.  Top 10 are:

1. Tron
2. The Runaways
3. Kick Ass
4. Inception
5. The Ghost Writer
6. Invictus
7. An Education
8. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
9. Red / Iron Man 2
10. The Swan - which I have yet to see but I know I will like.

5 Days Until Jamaica




So I'm thinking about doing a travel blog but the only thing is I don't plan on traveling for quite some after this Jamaica trip.  This above dress is what I will wear to the beach wedding minus the heels. The only thing is that I don't own a pair of flip flops AT ALL so I'm going to have to venture out to the Target or Payless and see if they have anything available this time of year.  I really don't want to spend too much on something I rarely wear even in the summer time. Cross your fingers.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

It's New Year's Day 2011 and it's my Birthday. 






dress: Forever 21


Last nights festivities including dinner at our favorite Italian Place which turned out to have a New Year's Eve menu and didn't include most of the great dishes.  We enjoyed the evening and the Owner/manager sent us lemoncello after dinner which ended the evening pretty well. I never made it to any of the bars/clubs  and we ended up watching poor Dick Clark on the telly. 


I haven't really thought much about the past year mostly because it wasn't too great until just recently. This year was partially good to me where I maintained my weight (still didn't make my goal), got a surprise cash overpayment from my doctor's office ($K) and kept my job. The bad: B still hasn't found a job but we'll deal with that in the new year. 


New Year's resolutions:  to make my weight goal and live a bit more frugally.  We've have had to cut back on dining out and shopping less and most of my purchases have been through Ebay or H&M or Forever 21.  I'll need to concentrate on buying quality  and not quantity from now on.

Happy New Year Everyone!!
