R.U.F. #8

RANDOM USELESS FACT #8:

Donald Duck comics were once banned in Finland becuase Donald doesn’t wear pants.

He’s a cartoon character, let him be full on nude if he wants. Yogi the bear’s body is totally naked except for the hat and tie. Why can’t Donald have a little fun?

McQ collab?

Madge, Comme Des Garcons and Roberto Cavalli for H&M?  Then Colette and Pierre Hardy for Gap?  Zac Posen, Richard Chai, Rogan, Jonathan Saunders and Luella Bartley, NOW ALEXANDER MCQUEEN for Target?  I know I’ve left quite a few out, but I just wanted to drop a few names for measure. I remember hearing something about this earlier in the month but was hesistant on writing something about it, but I can’t contain my excitment for it any longer. I normally don’t get all hypebitch on certain collabs but the line looks pretty decent, of course seeing in in person could be different after viewing the quality of the garments. BUT! Until I see them I will continue to be excited.  The McQueen for Target line will be available in stores and online March 1 through April 11.  Don’t believe me? Research for yourself.

Keyboard for blondes

Being a brunette I find most blonde jokes to be pretty silly and very old because it’s funny how blondes do catch a bad name for not being “all there”.  At first when I saw this I thought certain keys were funny, but after reading this short blurb I feel a little insulted as a woman.

Writing for a newspaper must suck, even if you don’t agree with a certain topic everything gets adjusted, flipped and fucked around with by someone else. Well this is what Richard or DICK Vanderford had written about this bubblegum pink keyboard for blondes.

OMG! There’s a new keyboard to make a girl’s life easy.

The $50 bubblegum-pink Keyboard for Blondes, talks back and has funny titles for boring keystrokes – think, “I need my space” bar.

Best of all, there are dedicated keys for such 100-times-a-day texts like “OMG,” “LOL” or “ZZZD,” girl-speak for boring date. “It’s pink? That’s great,” blonde Samantha Dubin, 34, said wryly. “I wouldn’t know how to use it otherwise.”

The $50 keyboard lets you tap out musical notes on the number keys, exclaims “oops” if you hit the backspace and makes the cash register clinking sound when you hit the dollar sign.

The “F” keys across the top spell out “Useless keys.”

I think the company forgot the keys to remind the woman to cook, bake and fold the laundry. Fuck this keyboard. The pink colour is nice, but the keys are offensive. I have a pretty good sense of humor about things but this one won’t slide for me.

Still want

I had a dream last night that I owned these pretty lil’ thangs. Then I woke up and realized I DON’T!  BOOOOO!

Plastic jewelry fun

How awesome are these pieces? There are lots of other fun pieces too.  I really want the first necklace but only hot dogs I like on my neck aren’t plastic ones they are the ones that are attached to men. Sorry, it’s been a while LOL Funny how I selected hot dogs & bananas. Meh. Well go buy some of this fun jewelry.

Can I borrow your baby?

So I can use this Marc Jacobs x Bugaboo stroller! I could maybe want one. I’m still not so sure, but seeing things like this make me want a little bundle of joy.

Colette will be the only European outlet to carry them, starting November 26th.

Beauty pick of the week

The way I see it I should start using eye cream now being a 20something. You know preventatives are always the safest way to stop an issue before it becomes too big. Yes, fine lines around the eyes will happen someday but until then I will continue to slather on this amazing eye cream.  I don’t have any lines around my eyes yet, but as you know the texture and elasticity is super mega important. No one wants wrinkly bags right? I have used so many different eye creams and I really like this one by Biotherm.

Helps reduce the signs of premature aging and improve skin texture.

This dual action formula features the antioxidant power sourced from the fruit and leaf of the olive tree, to leave your skin smooth and radiant.

Age Fitness Eye immediately smoothes the skin. Day after day, fine lines are visibly reduced.

I like it because of the price especially if this is something you are using 2xs a day. I also like this eye cream because it’s created for the first signs of aging for those who are concerned and would like to slow those ungodly wrinkles down. Not that the skin around my eyes isn’t smooth or flawless, but after using this cream I’ve noticed that it’s even softer so that means it could be working on stopping fine lines/wrinkles. How fucking awesome does that make me feel?  Amazing & pumped about this product and will now try out other Biotherm products for you guys & of course to keep myself looking fly.

Stay tuned for next weeks Beauty of the week product!
