Peek-a-Butt

This is a real life picture of a real life hot mess, taken by, yours truly. E, M and I followed her all around Marshall's in an effort to figure out her peculiar summer wardrobe. The back view does NOT give her justice. Honestly, she looks topless, BUT she is actually wearing what appears to be a string halter type thing. After some research, we concluded that she has absolutely nothing on underneath that hideous black cloth. Every time she took a step her butt cheeks would take turns popping out to say heyyyyy. It was horrible. Each boob was pointing in an opposite direction. And i don't think u can tell from the pic, but she is sporting a silver-glitter purse that looks about big enough to store her drug of choice. She kept pacing around the store, feverishly picking things up but never buying anything. The least offensive thing about her may be her white, pleather moccasins. I mean COME ON! You didn't look in one mirror? Or worse, u did, and you still thought you looked decent enough to go out in public in broad daylight?!?! Thanks to her we have our winner for Sunday HM.

50 cent looks like 25 cents



Yikessss. 50 has shed some lbs for his upcoming movie, "Things Fall Apart", where he plays a football player with cancer. He certainly looks like he is falling apart. What does he have on his eyebrows? And I am not gonna lie, I probably won't be running to the box office to see this movie. Let me know how it does.

Preach!

Now that summer is approaching and the weather is pretty decent, I have been making a conscious effort to excercise once I get home from work and before I morph into the sofa. Warmer weather= less clothes, which = more attention to your figure. That being said it was refreshing to read this quote:

"When the truth of the matter is that men enjoy the hourglass shape. The Beyonce, the Kim Khardashian, the Christina Hendricks. Those are perfect hourglass shapes, baby, so stop trying to kill yourself with cucumber salads and mineral water all damn day."


THANK YOU for the real talk. This quote is from 'O Hell Nawl', a blog that provides its readers with a males perspective on many issues. A very down-to-earth perspective, at that. It's nice to know that not all men want a size 0. I used to constantly be offended at being grouped into the category of being a "thick" or "curvy" female
... now i plan on embracing it. Shake what your momma gave yah.

Cooler than A Polar Bear's Toe Nails

The Huffington Post has a very informative article that most men should consider reading. For the definitive list on how to be cool.....please click here. My personal favorites are "move to Williamsburg" and "hang out with Steve".

Cry much?



I'm not gonna act like I don't cry. Because I do, I am a softie. But this is nuts. I literally laughed at this for a solid 30 minutes.

::Bulletproof:




la roux- Bulletproof is my new summer anthem. I may have listened to it about 40 times on repeat and sampled all the club re-mixes. I can't get enough of her. This isn't the official vid, but its all i could get my hands on. Its like retro meets house music. Im diggin' it.

Denim Debauchery

I love jeans. I wear them for everyday errands or when I go out on the weekends. I wear them with sneakers and sandals. I prefer to wear them in the summer, too. HOWEVER, the jeans below are simply uncalled for and foul. I would not be caught dead in these. Enjoy : )



Do you wear underwear with this or is the thong built in?






<<< uhm these are guaranteed to make you look 2ft. tall!



















Word on the street, these are D&G. These are fucking ugly.







<< Really? It looks like there is a diaper in there.

Pimpin' Ain't Easy...

Nor is this hair-do.



Im pretty sure this is ri-god-damn-diculous. Meet Allen Brown, pimp from Jersey City. He is headed to the slammer for pimpin out his momma from their home. I don't think anyone in jail is going to appreciate that side ponytail. But I sure do. Pimp Brown, you are my HOTMESS for the month of May. ((Thanks to E for passing this along, she always finds the good stuff))

Green Day on Broadway


http://willyoumissme.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/americanidiot.jpg

I spent a beautiful Sunday afternoon in NYC and saw a matinee of Green Day's musical. Their Grammy winning album was adapted into a 90 minute theatrical performance. To be honest, it was PHENOMENAL. The cast was brilliant and their voices were awesome. The constant set changes and edgy costumes/choreography kept my attention the entire time.

The lead role, Johnny Gallagher Jr. stole the show...and my heart. Absolutely adorable. It had been far too long since I had seen a show. Maybe that will be added to my bucket list of summer plans. If you get a free momento check out the videos on youtube, or better yet, go see the show.

In case you were wondering....

i. you CAN purchase a gift certificate from the dollar store. Don't question this, accept it as truth. I would know because I love aimlessly pilfering through the isles.

http://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2010/3/30/saupload_dollar_general.jpg
this is my all time favorite store; but don't be fooled, all items are "generally" $1.00

ii. there are still people out there that wear chained-wallet's. The ones where in case it were to fall out of your pocket it would still be hanging behind you on a long chain...

to be fair, this is not the stud who i am referencing.

iii. You can pay $19.00 tonight to have a piece of paper mailed to NY by tomorrow. FedEx saved my ass.

iv. Finally, I am going on another road trip, this time to BEANTOWN. It will be epic. I am stoaked.

Long hair, don't care



too bad her hair isn't long enough to cover up all that nonsense. This is OUTRAGEOUS.
the good thing about summer is we will be seeing a whole lot more of this hot-messy-ness.
