Stuff and Junk: August 12, 2010

• Holy crap everybody, I’m gonna be reading stuff I wrote at Scratchpad #3 on Tuesday at Mama’s CrowBar! The Scratchpad Reading Series, started by the wonderful Mary Phillips-Sandy, is a quarterly fiction/nonfiction reading that features works-in-progress. Please come if you live around here!
• This is old, but hilarious: vandalism of Diesel’s obnoxious “BE STUPID” ads.
• I would like to draw everyone’s attention to this gorgeous dress.

gorgeous!

• Please buy my boyfriend’s car, even though he mocks my glorious station wagon in the Craigslist ad.
• Nobody listens to me: despite my best efforts, everyone will soon give in to the Canadian Business Suit.

PROFESSIONAL MODEL. DO NOT ATTEMPT AT HOME.

• Aw look, it’s Diane from Ferdinand! Look how adorable she is and how awesome her store is! Do it now!
• Another fabulous local store, Find, is celebrating its first birthday, which means snacks and a sale!
• I don’t understand why I’m not wearing this outfit:

• I hate that there is a Glee clothing line and that it’s all just tshirts instead of Emma Pillsbury outfits.

Google image search inspiration!

Kate Nash:

I haven’t really listened to much of this lady’s music, but she’s a snappy dresser and I LOVE her makeup  here.

Keith Richards may not have aged well, but he had the best hair:

I need this haircut

And here, I should be thinking “drug problem,” but I just want to print this out and bring it to my hairdresser (Althea):

that belt buckle is pretty sweet

Other good ideas:

• Vince Noir
• Josephine Baker
• Louise Brooks
• Joan Jett
• Jessica Rabbit
• skate witches (Althea and Tara taught me everything I know)

YES

Note Joan’s gorgeous eyeshadow and the manicure in the foreground.

I am excited about this picture.
