rihanna’s animalistic jumpsuit
just came across this photo on STYLE SAVVY. how did i miss this last month? i dont believe rihanna actually has style. i think she just likes the shock factor
dead mouse USB
apple iPad
unveiled this morning in san francisco. it’s pretty and sleek like all apple products. from the iphone, palm pre, droid, and google phones we are definitely moving toward touch screens for everything. apple just decided to speed up the timeline. steve jobs said there is a need for a product in between a smart phone and a laptop. is there? i’m not sure i agree.
the screen is a little less than 10 inches. it would be like just using the screen portion of most netbooks. i like my netbook and am not ready to give up a physical keyboard just yet. but, it is pretty…

Guest Post: Rain Boots Go Away
It’s rainy season, which means an inordinate number of hideous rain boots have crossed my path. If you have eyes, you have noticed that a lot of liberties are taken with rain boots than with other kinds of boots. For instance, this pattern would be silly on any other kind of boot:
On these, I don’t hate it. It’s simple and cheerful and doesn’t annoy me.
But then (cue ominous organ music, please) there are these:
Tell me, People Who Wear Weird Patterned Boots, is it because you just want something different/weirder/more cheerful/just ridiculous when it’s raining? Or perhaps, Wearers of Huge, Chunky Rubber Boots, you think nothing better exists?
If you want to wear ugly shoes it is your right to do so. If you want wear rain boots that don’t scream Juvenile! or Pretending I Don’t Give a Damn! or I Am Not Having A Mid-Life Crisis!, here are a few to consider:
1. The London Fog Wales are only $99 and come in cement (my personal pick) and black. I know from experience they are comfy, lined in something warm and fuzzy, and can be worn indoors as well as out.
2. The Kate Spade Randi is a cute- and cheerful- heeled option.

3. And then there is the Hunter Original: classic, sturdy, available in a ton of colors. These look sleeker than a lot of other rain boots and in solid colors instead of a pattern, they are extremely versatile.
Now that you know you have options, do every one a favor and get rid of the Barbie-print/graffiti/overpriced & revolting Pucci print boots. Please help stop the madness one ugly rain boot at a time.

judith leiber – ganesh clutch
judith leiber is known for her crystal-embellished clutches of animals, fruit, or whatever none of which i have ever liked. this one is of the hindu deity ganesh. is this offensive? i’ve never seen a jesus clutch. this reminds me of american designers that use the british flag. why not ours?
