Link Love:Creative Inspiration: Dress A Day
A coworker of mine (shout out to Caryn!) tipped me to the blog New Dress A Day. Basically, poor Marisa hit 30 and lost her job around the same time, and felt like she was in a rut, but instead of sitting around feeling sorry for herself, she came up with a plan. Inspired by the movie Julie and Julia, she decided she would create one new dress every day for a year. Each dress would be created from garments found at flea markets, vintage shops,and garage sales. Her budget? $1 per day. That’s it. No other clothes shopping than that for an entire year.
Marisa’s blog is a day by day chronicling of each dress, (or, on occasion shirt) depicting the garment in its original state, and then the new dress she made from it. She also includes a description of how she got from point A to point B and oftentimes a real world example of her inspiration.
I find her whole endeavor very inspiring, and am really impressed with her creativity and commitment. She is already up to day 240, and really seems to be having a blast with the project. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if at the end of all this she ends up with great opportunities to make money doing the thing she loves. What do you think? Crazy? Inspired? Or both?

At a quick glance you wouldn’t be able to tell that this seductive looking lady is none other than Blake Lively, onE of the upper East side prepsters that she plays on everyone’s favorite show Gossip Girl; personally not one of my favorites but when you look this good acting promiscuous in a jail cell looking room that reminds me some what of something in a Law and Order SVU episode.. and of course if you decide to throw in the all American package of blonde hair and baby blue eyes… well then yes, this definitely deserves to be on many of your favorites list. Don’t you just love when the true side of all innocent looking girls finally comes out to the world …
Even if this blondie doesn’t play the top bitch of all backstabbing bitches, you know you still love her.

SOURCE:Ditch The Neon: 3 Straight-Off-The Runway Rich Lip Colors To Ring In The Fall
With September right around the corner, it’s time to kiss the bright lip shades of summer goodbye. But what colors could possibly replace those neon reds and hot pinks that make summer beauty so fun? Don’t slip into a beauty depression – check out three new amazing lipstick shades that will get you through the season in style:
Fall 2010 shows, like Peter Som’s (above, at left) saw some deep purple, almost black, lips. While that doesn’t exactly translate to everyday life (unless you work at a voodoo shop), you can go goth-lite with the trend using Fresh Sugar Plum Lip Treatment SPF 15 ($22.50). The shade looks deep purple in the tube, but glides on to a sheer berry, so it’s totally office appropriate.
We’ve been loving Maybelline’s ColorSensational ($7.49) line of lipsticks since it hit stores a few months ago, and the Red Revival shade is the ideal crimson for the cooler months, just like the one seen in Donna Karan’s runway show. This moisturizing lipstick is easy to apply and the rich color, though not for the shy, will make you want to grab a camel coat and some leather riding boots. It’s autumn in a tube.
Yet, for every bold red or purple lip that marched down the fall runways, there was a nude, almost matte, pout to counter it, like the ones at Alexander Wang. Go Ali MacGraw circa ”Love Story” with Revlon’s Colorstay Mineral Lipglaze in Timeless Nude ($6.74), a natural color with a hint of pink that looks good on all skin tones and won’t wash you out.
