guilty pleasure #3...

...$HOE$.

heels - stilletos, wedges, platforms, sneaks, kicks, ALL of iT. i'm a sicker than sick aDDiCT to footwear.\



and yes, please believe they cost a pretty penny.

p.s. i didn't even include the 'work appropriate' shelf

guilty pleasure #2 + EARTH DAY!

...MOViES. namely, DOCUMENTARIES. le sigh! i truly have a siCK aDDiCTiON to documentaries. is it even possible to BE such a nerd? ...while trying to unwind in your off time???

i suppose it is.

so in lieu of today being Earth Day and the attempts to conserve our energy + natural resources, do something that requires little energy from you/theEarth/thelocalPowerPlant --- get comfy and catch a few flicks on your laptop! :) watch the following list of docs and gain a better understanding of the largest threats we are facing as a human race right now. i had to netflix these - they're not gonna be at the local redbox or dvdplay, my friends.

my top picks for Earth Day 2010:

The Future of Food

FOOD, INC.

End of Suburbia

BLUE GOLD: World Water Wars


.....and after you've settled into the bleakness of it all, these might serve as a reminder to what it is we're fighting for + came from:

guilty pleasure #1...

NAiL$.

...and since i started doing my own nails a year ago, i've become an aDDiCT as well.

don't get me wrong, i was never big on getting fake nails or even simply sporting nailpolish; i guess somewhere along the way i discovered the awesomeness of unique manis and i was hoOKeD. started off with the basic primary colors and mixing what i needed to an eXplosion in color+tools+doodads.

a few rules i gave myself when i started designing&doing my own nails:
1) no repeats - new designs everytime! i haven't worn the same mani twice... and i don't plan to.
2) no reds - though red seems to be everyone's staple 'fem' color, i just don't dig it. no offense ladies+gents, red just ain't a stroke for this folk here.
