The new Chrome Experiment 100,000 stars is stunning and a lot of fun to play with. 

The Target and Neiman Marcus Collaboration Holiday Collection has a lot of cool gifts. They go on sale December 1st. 

Speaking of Target, although I love the store, they are following in suit with many other retailers this year and opening on Thanksgiving in hopes for more sales. I think everyone should have the right to be with their family and friends on Thanksgiving including Target employees. If you agree, you can sign a petition here. 

Check out the Holiday Gift Guides for Gadchick the girls put together. 

The Renegade Craft Fair will be in Brooklyn this weekend. If it's not too cold, I might head on over. 

Ox blood, burgundy, whatever you call it, it's the color of the moment and here are some pretty ways to incorporate it into your makeup. 

I've been listening to Grimes the past couple weeks and this video is almost hypnotizing. 

Have a super awesome weekend. 

a new week

National Geographic Feb 1976

saw the Dark Knight Rises for the second time, spent time in the pool and the sun, played Call of Duty, cheered for the USA in the Olympics, and drank a bit too many Modelos. I also shared a surprisingly tasty bag of M&M's which made me wonder if it was because they were "fresh" or just kept at a consistent temperature. Sometimes I think too much about silly things... I hope your weekend was just as fun.

to smile more!

I feel sometimes I come off as having "chronic bitch face" or just awkward and a lot of that would be solved if I just smiled more, at strangers, at friends, at everyone. 

Do anything fun this weekend? Find anything cool? Have any goals? I wanna know!
