» Can You Tell Spike Jonze and Wes Anderson Apart?

“Imagine a police lineup of thirty-something white Hollywood auteurs.  The crime? Conspiracy to dazzle you visually while making you want to buy a pair of converse then listen to 60s French pop at a vintage vinyl store.  Would you be able to confidently tell Wes Anderson and Spike Jonze apart?”

» Hot New Hair Trend: Ombre Color, Rad Or Bad?

I accidentally had this hair-do earlier this year after giving up trying to cover old highlights, but then kept cutting and cutting.  Now I want my hair back, especially if it would’ve ended up anything like this.  First spotted this look here and loving it here.

“ I was obliged to have a bath of champagne. And I really didn’t like it. It was very cold, so it’s not so nice. But it’s also a ritual—a ritual I do not understand. It was freezing.

I usually do whatever I can not to dress up for Halloween, but this Mac Spinning Wheel of Death costume completely satisfies my not-so-inner-dork. That said, I’ll probably still disappear to a place where costumes are passé. (via)

Cute DIY jewelry that looks do-able for the craftily challenged.  I really like this Tom Binns inspired necklace.

Currently I’m obsessed with Nars Flamenco and expect to be wearing it all winter. Seeing MJ in Nars Red is further proof it looks good on anyone, guy or gal.  The photo is part of a book the brand put together a book to celebrate its 15th anniversary. (via)

From the United Bamboo 2010 calendar featuring kitten photography by Noah Sheldon.  Personally I’m a dog person but this is insanity, in a good way. (via)

Bruce La Bruce photo from a Perez Projects/Daddy The Magazine display at the NY Art Book Fair.  It’s a pretty picture, though unfortunately grabbed me for less obvious reasons.  I’m devastated over the loss of my very own ‘daddy’. (via)

Dolly Parton - “Jolene”

Spending my morning with this beautiful voice.

Most good nights end with Jolene, though she’s appropriate any time of day.
