Misa contacted me after I posted a negative review of Misa Indescribable. They said that they would do their best to rework the formula to create better, less streaky application. I was really impressed that they reached out to me as a dissatisfied customer. Indescribable was the first Misa polish I tried, since then I've had much better results with their polish. Kudos to Misa for the excellent customer service.

Sugar Sugar is Misa's previous Spring/Summer collection. It is composed of 3 base colors and 3 'toppings'. It's my personal opinion that these polishes were meant to be worn layered over each other. The name Sugar Sugar is very fitting, all the colors in this collection look powdery and sheer on the nail. But you'll find, like I did, that this seemingly princess-y collection has a darker, cooler side. All these polishes applied exceptionally well, no application issues at all.

First, the base colors:

Misa Sugar Daddy is my favorite from this collection. Gorgeous. I've been loving whites lately and this one has very fine silvery microshimmer that sets it apart from the other whites in my stash. It's opaque but still somewhat translucent at 3 coats. I feel that Misa Confection Section was meant to be the topping for Sugar Daddy.

Misa Lolli Jolly is a soft sheer pink with microshimmer. Lolli Jolly is dupish to OPI Princesses Rule and Sinful Glass Pink. It's still very sheer even at 3 coats. Misa Candy Girl compliments Lolli Jolly.

Misa Honeybunch is the silvery white version of Lolli Jolly. This swatch is also 3 coats. In the image Honeybunch seems to fade from very opaque on my index finger to very sheer on my pinkie finger. That is the result of shading. Interestingly, Honeybunch looks more sheer in the shade and more opaque in full on sunlight. Finally, I think the teal in Misa Sweet Pleasure compliments the silver in Honeybunch.

Here are the three base colors side-by-side. They may look similar but each one has it's own charm. I actually did try to capture images of all these polishes layered over each other. I just couldn't get the subtle shimmer to show up accurately with my camera. Suffice it to say that the combinations are really pretty, especially using Candy Girl and Sweet Pleasures together over Lolli Jolly as a base.

Now for the 'toppings':

Misa Confection Section is a chunky multi-toned glitter polish. You can use this one over any polish in this collection (well really over any polish, period) but I think it's especially suited to be layered over Sugar Daddy.

Misa Candy Girl is a pink jelly base with suspended blurple microshimmer. Ultra sheer, it's gorgeous layered over Lolli Jolly. It's my second favorite from this collection, you'll see why below.

Misa Sweet Pleasure is teal toned microshimmer suspended in nude jelly polish. This is 3 coats in the sunlight. Even in the full on midday Sun this polish is very subtle and tame. It's beautiful, I don't say that very often about sheers.

Now for the really exciting stuff - the 'toppings' over black:

Sugar Sugar is rocking the major undercover bling.

Candy Girl is blue to purple duochrome! DUOCHROME! *dies* Confection Section becomes green toned over black, very 'the truth is out there-ish' so I think this will be my mani for the X-Files opening this weekend. Sweet Pleasures over black looks a bit like Zoya Kotori but more bling.

Special thanks to Misa.

Presenting the only MP3 player that can actually claim that it has a "compact design" - Inno B2 (or Barbie MP3 player) weighs in at a tiny 33g and has vital statistics that stick insects would be envious of - 52.4 x 54.6 x 15.1 mm and not only does it look like a makeup compact, it actually is!

Your new compact-come-MP3 player has a 96 x 96 mm display, heart shaped buttons, FM radio, USB 2.0 connectivity and supports up to 2GB worth of MP3's, WMA's & JPGs. If pink isn't your colour, you can choose from either black or grey and at 89,000krw (around £43/$87usd).

If compact mirrors aren't really your thing and what you really want from your MP3 player is a fashion accessory, try Inno's even smaller B0, 16mm deep, 1GB player, which can be worn as a badge, pendant, or even ring!

If that isn't enough to pursuade you to buy a plane ticket to Korea, not only do these tiny 13.5g, players come in the "barbie" range, but there is also a limited edition range, designed by the Wonder Girls (some Korean teeny-bopping-girly-band-thing) which, for the same price as a Barbie one, you can get yourself four pre-loaded Wonder Girl tracks.

If you are not in-fact a teenage, hello kitty, pink, loving teenage girl but still want to get in on the act (it's called peer-pressure) you could go for one of the plain swirly ones (which apparently President Lee Myung-bak is stocking at The Blue House to give as gifts to state guests).

All the Inno B0 players are priced at 59,800krw (around £30/$50usd) which is cheaper than a shuffle and you can actually wear it as a fashion accessory and not look like you are trying to fill your apple void! Both the Inno B2 & B0 are available from Homeplus or Inno who also offer a range of accessories to fill your Inno void!

I told you that I would have show you a couple of ideas to combine my new skirt...sooner than this I couldn't do it!!
I believed that vichy fabrique would have been harder to combine especially with colors but in the end I wasn't right and in my head I still have a coulpe of ideas turning around to put into practice...and then I discovered that wearing high waisted things isn't so bad for me as I thought...even if this isn't the perfect skirt for me to be worn like that...but there will be more soon!

Achei essa matéria supimpa na revista Manequim desse mês. Confira as combinações com tons e estampas para você criar looks de arrasar!

VERDE

COMBINA COM: vinho, roxo, azul-marinho e pink.

• Com meia colorida, a blusa vai bem a aniversários e baladas. Para compor um look mais comportado, prefira a meia preta. Assim, você pode ir até ao trabalho, se for de ambiente informal.

• Quando usar cores fortes no dia-a-dia, escolha tecidos opacos para não exagerar.

ROXO

COMBINA COM: verde-escuro, vermelho, amarelo e pink.

• O decote em V contornado por chatons valoriza os seios e o colo. Já as mangas amplas são ótimas para disfarçar braços cheinhos. Quem tem pernas finas pode ousar com uma meia-calça colorida.

• Tons neutros, como preto, caramelo, cinza e marfim, geralmente vão bem com todas as cores vibrantes.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

AZUL

COMBINA COM: salmão, verde-claro, roxo e marrom.

• Com estampa em preto e branco é fácil compor um look com este tom. Além disso, peças de modelagens clássicas, como o blazer, equilibram o visual.

• Por cobrirem uma área menor, os acessórios coloridos são mais fáceis de misturar com as roupas chamativas.

VERMELHO

COMBINA COM: rosa-claro, azul-petróleo, marrom e roxo.

• A modelagem solta, a gola alta e o comprimento na altura dos joelhos minimizam a exuberância do vermelho.

• Cores primárias destacam qualquer imperfeição na roupa. Sempre que for confeccionar uma peça nesses tons, invista em tecidos com qualidade e formas elegantes.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

LARANJA

COMBINA COM: amarelo, verde, azul-petróleo e pink.

. Para misturar estampas com cores fortes, escolha elementos neutros ou da mesma família, como laranja, amarelo e vermelho.

• Evite usar roupas muito fechadas ou o look inteiro da mesma cor para não ficar com o visual carregado.

PINK

COMBINA COM: rosa-claro, roxo, amarelo e marrom.

• Feminina e alto-astral, esta cor é ótima para usar em festas como formatura e casamentos. Durante o dia, prefira os tons pastel e à noite abuse dos tecidos com brilho, como cetim, xantungue e tafetá.

• Invista em formas justas ou que valorizam o corpo, como as pregas e a cintura alta desta saia. Se usado em modelagens soltas, o rosa cria uma aparência infantil.

______________________________________________________________________________________________

AMARELO

COMBINA COM: roxo, azulclaro, marinho, cinza e vinho.

• Por ter forte apelo visual, esta cor deve ser aplicada em detalhes ou em pecas pequenas, como o bolero.

• Embora seja mais usado em producoes diurnas, o amarelo vai bem ate em vestidos de festa. Eleja tecidos nobres e abuse de acessorios poderosos, que podem ser dourados ou prateados.

buddleia / butterfly bush zoom experiment 1, ursprünglich hochgeladen von martin zeile photography

 

I tried this time something I saw recently to give this organary flower photo a more sophisticated touch.
I used my Tamron 28-300 macro zoom on a tripod (vibration control turned off). I made this one in the early evening with ISO 100 and 4 seconds exposure (f/22). The first 2 or so seconds I did nothing. the last to I slowly zoomed in, beginning at around 50 to 60 mm up to 150 or so. I needed a few tries but finally i got what I wanted and what you see in the two pictures above - a shallow glow-like halo around the flower. I did not try it the other way (to zoom out) as it comes to my mind right now, but for sure I will.
The black background was achieved by a black shirt hanging on my kitchen door in 50-75 cm distance, as simple as that is the small "home studio".
I hope this encourages you out there to try this as well.

'till next time....

Warning: I am a self-professed PRODUCT WHORE !!! I love trying new products, especially all natural products. Feel free to comment and give your feed back once you try some of my favorite things.

On a recent trip to out nation's capital, Washington, D.C., I spent the majority of the week on my feet. I walked, danced, and walked some more. Needless to say, by Wednesday I was in desperate need of a pedicure/foot massage. Much to my dismay, I couldn't find a reputable nail spa in all of downtown D.C. Now I know your thinking “yeah right...no nail joints in all of D.C. Who is she kidding ?” But seriously, I wasn't just looking to get a pedicure or a quick color change, I wanted the works. So to the internet I go, in search of my nail spa and their location in D.C. Only to find that they do not have a D.C. Location

DASHING DIVA - My Favorite Thing !!

Ladies, Dashing Diva was designed for the little princess that lives in all of us. The décor transports you to a “ultra girlie very pink paradise”, with over 165 shades of nail polish to choose from. The pedicure stations are plush pink sofas, 1 step above a pedi-spa and 2 steps above the floor. The nail station is ultra modern with sleek furnishing in a soft muted pink tone.

Their services include a variety of “diva” manicures and pedicures, facials, waxings and mini massages. The nail spa even offers a signature service, virtual nails, that is not available anywhere else.  Unlike acrylic or gel nails, there's no filing or drilling thus, no damage to the natural nail bed. Once the client is sized, application can be done within minutes. Virtual nails last for up to 2 weeks (mine lasted 3 weeks).

My favorite service is the Spoiled-Diva pedicure , which includes a micro-dermabrasion treatment from your knees to your tippy toes, a special foot wrap and a full leg and foot massage. Trust me, your feet will thank you.

Also, try a visit on a Thursday or Friday evening for “Girls Night Out”,  when you'll be served Cosmo's while your serviced. On Saturday mornings you'll be treated to a light contenential breakfast before noon (check your location for details)

The most important thing about Dashing Diva is their commitment to cleanliness. Upon your first visit you will receive your own on nail file, buffer and cuticle pusher. If your fit for virtual nails, you'll also receive a card with your specific nail size labeled for each finger.

Make your next nail treatment at “Dashing Diva” near you.  Dashing Diva currently has locations in Brooklyn, Manhattan, North Carolina, California, Japan, China, Kuwait, Australia and the Philippines.  Be sure to make an appointment or come in at least an hour before closing as most services take about an hour each.

Ladies, you can thank me by sending me gift certificates to “Dashing Diva” on Smith Street (Brooklyn, NY)

ترتیب زمانی ترانه های Pink در EU (غیر از جزایر بریتانی):
(2006) "Nobody Knows"
(2006) "Dear Mr. President"
(2007) "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)"

ترتیب زمانی ترانه های Pink در اقیانوسیه:
(2006) "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)"
(2007) "Dear Mr. President"
(2007) "'Cuz I Can"

به گفته Pink این ترانه نامه ای گشاده برای رئیس جمهور آمریکا George W. Bush و یکی از مهم ترین ترانه هایی است که نوشته.
Pink گفته که این ترانه هیچ وقت در آمریکا منتشر نخواهد شد، چون خیلی مهم بود تا فقط به عنوان یه تبلیغ منتشر بشه. "Dear Mr. President" در کشورهای اروپایی، استرالیا، کانادا و بریتانیا منتشر شده.

ویدیوی زنده Pink از این ترانه در Wembley Arena نیز جزو ویدیوهای شبکه VH1 بوده.

طبق گفته Pink به رادیوی استرالیا، وقتی گروه دختر Young Divas استرالیایی از این ترانه ازشون می پرسه، می گه:
"این ترانه رو در روز Martin Luther King در سال 2005 نوشتم. من هر روز روزنامه The New York Times رو می خونم و اخبار رو می بینم. من ازش متنفر شده بودم و احساس کردم که نیاز دارم یه ترانه بنویسم."

این ترانه مجموعه ای است از سوال ها و انتقادها از مسائل جنجالی و رئیس جمهور آمریکا مثل:
جنگ در ("Let me tell you about hard work/Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away") و ("How do you feel when a mother has no chance to say good-bye?")
هم جنس بازی در ("What kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?") که این موضوع می تونه به نایب رئیس جهمور آمریکا Dick Cheney اشاره داشته باشه که وقتی دخترش هم جنس باز هست، حقوق همجنس بازها را نمی پذیرد.
آوارگی و بی خانمانی در ("What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street")
سقط جنین در ("What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?")
استفاده بیش از حد از دارو در ("You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine")
و سوال هایی از قبیل "when you look in the mirror are you proud?" و ...

در مصاحبه ای با MTV News پینک اعلام کرد که امیدوار است جورج بوش این ترانه رو بشنود. هم چنین افتخار بکنه به اینکه ما در جامعه ای زندگی می کنیم که می تونیم عقایدمون رو بیان کنیم!
وقتی Pink این ترانه رو در Jimmy Kimmel Live در تاریخ 11 آوریل 2007 اجرا کرد، ضمن تشکر از Jimmy Kimmel برای اجرای ترانه، اعلام کرد که هیچکدام از ایستگاه های رادیویی DJ و شوهای تلویزیونی آمریکا بهش اجازه اجرای این ترانه رو نمی دادن.

مشابه ویدیوی ترانه "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)" ویدیوی "Dear Mr. President" نیز بصورت زنده اجرا می شه.(تور I'm Not Dead پینک در لندن در Wembley Arena)

ترجمه لیریک Dear Mr. President:

Dear Mr. President
آقای رئیس جهمور عزیز
Come take a walk with me
بیا با هم قدمی بزنیم
Let's pretend we're just two people and
بیا وانمود کنیم که مثل دو نفر عادی هستیم و
You're not better than me
و تو بهتر از من نیستی
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly
اگه بتونیم صادقانه حرف بزنیم، می خوام ازت چند تا سوال بپرسم

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
چه احساسی داری وقتی افراد در بدر و بی خانمان رو در خیابان ها می بینی؟
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
شب ها قبل اینکه بخوابی، برای کی دعا می کنی؟
What do you feel when you look in the mirror
چه احساسی داری وقتی به آینه نگاه می کنی؟
Are you proud
احساس غرور می کنی؟

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
چطوری می خوابی وقتی بقیه ما در حال گریه کردنیم
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
چطوری خواب می بینی وقتی یه مادر حتی شانس اینو نداره که خداحافظی کنه
How do you walk with your head held high
چطوری سرت رو بالا می گیری و راه می ری؟
Can you even look me in the eye
می تونی توی چشم های من نگاه کنی؟
And tell me why
و به من بگی که چرا...؟

Dear Mr. President
آقای رئیس جمهور عزیز
Were you a lonely boy
تو یه پسر تنها بودی؟
Are you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
یه پسر تنها هستی؟
How can you say
چطوری می تونی بگی
No child is left behind
که بچه ای باقی نمونده
We're not dumb and we're not blind
ما لال و کور نیستیم
They're all sitting in your cells
همه اونا در سلول تو نشستن (و زندانی هستن)
While you pave the road to hell
در حالی که تو جاده ها را تا جهنم فرش و آسفالت می کنی

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away
چه جور پدری حقوق دختر خودش رو نادیده می گیرد؟
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
و چه جور پدری از دخترش بدش میاد اگه همجنس باز باشد
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
فقط می تونم تصور بکنم که خانمت چی باید بگه
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine
تو راه طولانی رو از ویسکی و کوکائین اومدی (از ویسکی و کوکائین زیاد استفاده کردی)

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
چطوری می خوابی وقتی بقیه ما در حال گریه کردنیم
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
چطوری خواب می بینی وقتی یه مادر حتی شانس اینو نداره که خداحافظی کنه
How do you walk with your head held high
چطوری با سری که بالا گرفتی (و با غرور) راه میری؟
Can you even look me in the eye
می تونی توی چشم های من نگاه کنی؟

Let me tell you bout hard work
بذار برات در مورد کارهای سخت بگم
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
که یه حقوق حداقل داری با بچه ای که در راهه
Let me tell you bout hard work
بذار برات در مورد کارهای سخت بگم
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
در حالیکه تو مشغول بازسازی خانه ت هستی پس از اون بمب هایی که باعث خرابی شد
Let me tell you bout hard work
بذار برات در مورد کارهای سخت بگم
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
و جای خوابی از جعبه های مقوایی می سازی
Let me tell you bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
بذار برات در مورد کارهای سخت بگم
You don't know nothin bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Ohhh
تو چیزی از کارهای سخت نمی دونی

How do you sleep at night
چطوری شبا می خوابی؟
How do you walk with your head held high
چطوری سرت رو بالا می گیری و راه می ری؟
Dear Mr. President
آقای رئیس جهمور عزیز
You'd never take a walk with me would u
تو هرگز با من قدم زنی نمی کنی
می کنی؟

The hot new collection from the legendary designer Christian Audigier with the inspired tattoo designs of Don Ed Hardy is gracing all the hot bodies at the beach this summer, so join in on the fun! The Ed Hardy Bikini is a great and stylish way to show off that smoking body you spent all winter and spring working to perfect!

Ed Hardy Bikinis has been worn by celebrities like Britney Spears and Christina Millian, but the popularity is building. The brand has overall been promoted by such stars as Madonna, Fergie, Diddy and Paris Hilton. With locations in New York, Paris, Australia, Africa and even Delhi, India, it's no wonder the name has grown to become an international empire.

Wear an Ed Hardy Bikini with a pair of Ed Hardy Sunglasses and you'll be sure to turn heads. The audacious designs and intricate detail, Ed Hardy Swimwear is the only way to show your hot bod all over the beach, and snag some guys along the way!

Joey Pepper's got an interview in the Sept. issue of Skateboarder. Go cop it.

Now go watch The Dark Knight, if you haven't already.

In a recent interview with People magazine Hart says,

 "It's a tough situation to be in but I love her to death. We talk all the time and try to stay connected as much as possible. I miss everything about her."  Hart also threw in "I'm not in any rush to get back into a relationship." But to bad for Carey, Pink has moved on.

I live in an apartment and really didn't want to paint the walls. The association is horrible and we don't plan on staying there for long after the baby arrives. Do you think I could get away with just hanging artwork and photos? I like this idea because when she gets older, I don't have to repaint, I can simply take these down! This particular one is a handpainted canvas which means that there is no glass - something I really prefer in the nursery. What do you think?
