Happy everyday

Get dressed like Kate Moss

One would imagine that choosing an outfit would be difficult for Kate Moss. Not that she wouldn't look pretty fabulous in absolutely anything, because she would, of course. But, can you imagine her closet? It would take us all day to choose from all those choices, but not Kate.

"I follow my feelings and just get dressed," said the supermodel. "I go with a feeling or emotion and don't necessarily plan, unless perhaps it's a special occasion."

She's not only low maintenance when it comes to packing up for a night out. In addition to making sure she wears "the highest heels and the shortest dress," Kate brings along "black eyeliner, keys, and money." Well, we'd add lip gloss and a cellphone to that list, but otherwise, we're pretty much just like Kate Moss!

Tokyomilk: My favorite gift-y brand! Gorgeous, gorgeous gift-wrapped soaps in cheeky, glittery paper, glass bottles of bubble bath with cool images of birds, skulls, Marie Antoinette, etc, and much more. Today I picked up a delish little Sparrow Perfume which smells like neroli, gardenia and rosewood. Yum!

Rock and Republic Cosmetics: Yeah, they have jeans. But more importantly (at least to me), Rock and Republic also makes a bright fuchsia blush that I could just die for. Pressed Blush in Kinky! It’s genius. Rock/Rep had a makeup artist doing makeup touch ups at the lounge, so I stopped in for a quick refresher and saw their upcoming lip gloss launch called Rock the Cure. It launches at the end of October and 100% of the proceeds will go to City of Hope for cancer research and prevention.

Fall Boots Street Style from NYC

In New York, the crisp fall weather has encouraged women to break out their best boots. From tall boots to booties, cowboy boots to classic black boots, there was plenty of variety on the feet of fashionable women when photographer Alys Kenny took to the streets with her trusty camera.

Check out the results of her style expedition that went from uptown to downtown and everywhere in between.

2tjc Fall 2009 Fashion Week – Backstage at Matthew
  










Fall 2009 Fashion Week - Backstage at Matthew Williamson



SHOW: Matthew Williamson MAKEUP: Charlotte Tilbury for M.A.CHAIR: Paul Hanlon for GHDBEAUTY SNAPSHOT: Graphic minimalism and 90s chicTHE SCOOP: Matthew Williamson is known for his boho inspired runways, but this time around the designer wanted a whole new look. Hairstylist Paul Hanlon explained "We wanted to reference the early 90s, like the photos Steven Klein used to take for Vogue. It's all very graphic and minimal. Normally Matthew's girls are a bit boho and this season he wanted them to be the opposite. Much more finished, harder and more graphic." To get that feel they used a ton of hairspray at the roots and brushed the hair very smooth. "The result is almost like when a woman comes up out of the water." Makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury also followed the 90s theme creating a blended gray eye and a red-ish brown lip. "Everything is matte and there's a lot of blending. We are using lip liner which is seen as very 90s but I think everyone should use it. Liner evens out the lip and gives you the perfect pout."

GET THE LOOK MAKEUP: M.A.C Lipstick in Half 'n Half, Lip Liner in Spice, Eyeshadow in Print

GET THE LOOK HAIR: GHD Thermal Protector, Ultimate Hairspray, and GHD Reflection Spray

Fqgg Christian Louboutin Sale on theOutnet.com_107
  










Feeling like you could use some uplifting news this week? Then get ready, because theOutnet is hosting a blowout Christian Louboutin sale starting Tuesday, March 23, before noon ET.
Fans of Christian Louboutin will not be disappointed by the selection — theOutnet, from the fashion gurus behind Net-A-Porter, promises over 100 styles of the red-soled shoes with discounts of up to 65% off. 
The drool-worthy sale is just another smart move Christian Louboutin has made recently. 
Besides inspiring a Jennifer Lopez song (who can forget her notorious catsuit-clad performance of “Louboutins” on New Year’s Eve?), the shoe designer teamed up with young label Ruffian for Fall 2010 and provided just the right bit of boost for models at J. Mendel’s pre-Fall 2010 presentation.
Thankfully, theOutnet’s sale selection isn’t bottom-of-the-bin. Christian Louboutin’s classic “So Private 140″ peep-toe platform sling backs have been marked down from $895 to a more wallet-friendly $313.25. 
For more glitz, the “Paquita 120″ satin gladiator heels in gold (above) will go for $348.25 instead of their usual hefty $995.
With these seriously slashed prices, footwear fanatics will surely rush to be the first ones on theOutnet. So arm yourself with your mouse and be ready to click! 
In the meantime, check out the limited-edition Barbie that Christian Louboutin recently designed.

8jgb Chanel Jade’s Sexy Cousin, Jade Rose_1354
  










In all the hoopla surrounding Chanel’s new “it” polish Jade (the minty green color that was previewed on Chanel’s Fall ‘09 runway, then launched September 10 at Fashion’s Night Out to kick off New York Fashion Week), a few things have gone overlooked. 
    Despite being a gorgeous shade, not everyone wants to be flaunting green fingernails, and it’s not exactly the most work appropriate.    There are waiting lists to get the coveted color.    Jade has an equally chic counterpart, Jade Rose. And it’s stunning.No one seems to realize that Chanel launched two colors this season, and Jade Rose is the more wearable option.
The dusty shell-pink color with a hint of shimmer is subtly sexy, yet suited to any occasion (board meeting included).
To us, Jade is a fashion-forward, quirky college girl and Jade Rose is her sophisticated and stylish older cousin who runs her own business and can actually afford a quilted Chanel bag.
Jade Rose isn’t alone! Check out our other favorite nail trends for fall.







Chanel Jade's Sexy Cousin, Jade Rose

Chanel Jade Rose is pretty, versatile, and probably not sold out!

3jpc Button Necklaces by The Jewelry Workroom_2439
  










Button Necklaces by The Jewelry Workroom



Today's featured indie designer is Pat Dippre of The Jewelry Workroom. Pat has been designing elegant jewelry for the past four years, including her own original take on the classic button necklace.

Tell us a little about yourself and your work. I live in West Chester, Pennsylvania with my husband. My full time job is an administrative assistant to a school nurse and I couldn't be happier there! I design my jewelry in my spare time, after work and on weekends.

My designs are mostly neutral earth tones; I feel one gets more mileage out of a piece if it goes with many articles of your wardrobe. I feel that my designs are chic and updated; I love to create pieces that are over the top, or my line of button necklaces.

Button necklaces have been around for many years. Many that I had seen were very simple and I decided to make mine more elaborate, with layers of buttons, in varying shapes and sizes and weaving beads and/or crystals through them. They're so much fun to design! 
How did you get started as a designer? A friend asked me if I wanted to take some beading classes and I was hooked! I did it for fun, but got some serious inquiries about my jewelry and decided to give it a try. 

What inspires your work? I'm inspired by beautiful colors, iridescence, and sparkle. There are so many factors to inspiration; sometimes a person inspires me, or a mood, even the weather! 

Who are your favorite designers? I have so many favorites, let's see, Donna Karan, Liz Claiborne, Ellie Tahari, Gianni Versace, Nicole Miller, Daniel Espinosa ... so, so many. 

What are your top fashion & beauty must-haves? The color black -- I wear it almost daily in some form! Plenty of silver jewelry is a must, mostly earrings and rings. 
Any advice you would give to aspiring designers?  If you love it ... don't give it up! Sometimes we all need to put things on hold for various reasons, but if it makes you happy, don't give it up. 

The style you choose to create is your own. If it excites you, it will surely excite others. Success takes time; it's a matter of finding the right market and constantly tweaking your work and improving the various aspects of it. Photography, descriptions, materials, they all need continual monitoring. The world changes and we must be willing to change with it, in order to look current, even if we are selling vintage items!

Where can people find your work?  I sell primarily on Etsy at jwlrywrkroom.etsy.com 

We love all of the amazing independent designers out there and we wanted to find out more about what makes these creative types tick. If you do too, check out more of our Indie Designer Interviews.

Qhwe Burger King Spray – Eau de Gross_2873
  










Burger King Spray - Eau de Gross



You're not gonna believe this. Have you ever wanted to smell like the above? On purpose?

Burger King has launched a body spray called "Flame" ... "the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat." 

The body spray is apparently for men, but we're gonna go ahead and assert that it's for no one.

The Burger King Flame Body Spray is a highly affordable fragrance at a sexy $3.99, and available at Ricky's NYC locations and here on their website. The photo of this product is 99% likely to give you nightmares. Don't check it out before bed.

If you're really sure you don't scare easy, check out this additional website they created - FireMeetsDesire.com. You get to spray the bottle and weird stuff happens. The creepy Burger King king is on there. He's half-naked, and he totally points right at you.

kubz Vermieter muss sich um Mängel kümmern_689
  











Vermieter muss sich um M?ngel kümmern

Der Deutsche Mieterbund in Berlin informiert, dass sich Vermieter um die Beseitigung von Wohnungsm?ngeln kümmern muss. Der Mieter kann die Sch?den in seiner Wohnung erst nach einer unbeantworteten Mahnung selbst beheben lassen.

Hat der Mieter den Mangel jedoch selbst verschuldet, oder es handelt sich um eine v?llig belanglose und unerhebliche Beeintr?chtigung, so ist eine Minderung ausgeschlossen.

Laut DMB z?hlen notwendige Reparaturen in Wohnungen zu den grunds?tzlichen Aufgaben des Vermieter. Meldet sich der Vermieter nicht auf eine Mahnung, oder geschieht die Reparatur nicht umgehend, hat der Mieter Anspruch auf Mietkürzung. Je nach Umfang und Auswirkung der Beeintr?chtigung kann diese Kürzung bis zu 100 Prozent betragen.

Der Mieter hat au?erdem das Recht, auf M?ngelbeseitigung zu klagen, reagiert oder verweigert der Vermieter die notwendigen Ausbesserungen. Der Mieter kann nach einer nicht beantworteten Mahnung die M?ngel selbst beseitigen lassen und dies dem Vermieter in Zahlung stellen.

Dan Rosensweig to be named Guitar Hero CEO
