Oh Adriana…
I’m kind of loving their holiday videos. It’s a cute way for people to get to know the Angels better whereas in the past, I really had no clue at all unless I took my questions to Wikipedia.

A Reminder To My Future Self
“I used to feel so alone in the city. All those gazillions of people and then me, on the outside. Because how do you meet a new person? I was very stumped by this for many years. And then I realized, you just say, ‘Hi.’ They may ignore you. Or you may marry them. And that possibility is worth that one word.”

2011’s Most Memorable Quotes In Pop Culture
Initially I believed that Kris Humphries’ quote about people not caring about Kim Kardashian after she has kids was the winner of 2011, but now New York Magazine’s post is making me have second thoughts. The magazine has compiled a list of quotes from celebrities, movies, and television series that are catchy, memorable, and just downright silly. A few of these got a chuckle out of me, but I think my favorite ones come from a couple of movies that I did not watch from this year.
“If you don’t surrender that list, I will kill every friend you have — Zake, Keelie, neighbors, even your boring teachers — and when I’m finished you will be responsible for the death of every friend you have on Facebook.” – the villain after Taylor Lautner’s character in Abduction
“This is aaahr time.” – Kenny Wormland’s character in the remake of Footloose

Free People Goes Grunge
Having grown up in Seattle, I always felt obligated to embrace the grunge look. Although it isn’t very me and I know for a fact that I can’t pull it off, I still have a place in my heart for it. It also doesn’t hurt that Free People knows what their doing in their new look book.
