Uh...I mean...I didn't do this at work. Yah. I did it at home. That's right. Anyways, I wanted to elaborate on my "This is what I feel like when I listen to Coldplay" sketch from the earlier post. So I modernized the darling and gave her some arms and a torso. How generous of me right? Anyways, I think it's fun. Lotsa movement.
This was in my latest catalogue from Sephora. They are press and peel eyeshadow pads. It looks like they're available in leopard print, two different zebra prints, and camo.
I have to say, I'm not impressed with the zebra print ones. I'm not a big fan of zebra print in general though. And I don't think I'm the type of girl that wears camo anything...no I know I'm not the type. BUT. I LOVE the leopard print! Doesn't that pic at the top look awesome! Now obviously this would not be an everyday look. Honestly the only time I would consider wearing this would be for Halloween or a night out to the clubs. Oh, btw, I'm not the clubbing type either so really we've narrowed it down to Halloween. But how awesome would that be? Yes, I'm now designing my entire ensemble in my head around those leopard print eyeshadow pads. It's going to be fabulous dahling!
My dad and sister rode out Hurricane Dolly in South Padre Island, Texas yesterday and sent me videos while it was taking place. These were taken with his Blackberry and he hooked his laptop up to a charger in his truck and connected to the internet via a Verizon aircard.
Hurricane Dolly reached CAT 2 status and the eye of the hurricane hit right around South Padre. Don't worry, they were perfectly safe. That's my dad and sister on the video and they were staying in a house that's rated for hurricanes. Also, my dad has now been through 9 hurricanes (5 of them at sea!) and he's also an environmental consultant for the coastal region. He was actually excited that they were going to get to see the eye of the hurricane.
Today he and my sis are out helping clean up and measuring the damage and effects to that region. If you follow the videos back to the YouTube page they're on, look at the comments, especially on the second one. I love the internet. It cracks me up the things people feel free saying on it.
So of course I have subscribed to the Daily Heller from Print, and what should I find in my Inbox today? Why it's yet another reason why I heart Obama and I don't heart McCain. Look at Obama's Bauhaus-esque fantabulous poster! It was created by Obama's design team in honor of his trip to Berlin. I LOVE IT! Seriously, I want to marry that poster.
Do you see the difference, people? I'm not saying you should vote for Obama just because his poster is better. You should vote for Obama because his policies and ideals are better, the poster is just icing! Haha, you know what I just realized? McCain's poster which claims that "peace is born of wisdome" has fighter jets on it. Peace....fighter jets...and golden clouds for some reason. Yeah, good job. (and Jizzy Crizzy McCain is old!)
I recently found John Mathais through a link on Design Sponge. I love that his work is both feminine and retro and some of it has a slight punk feel to it. Enjoy :)
