brothers bloom

Elaine and I both happened to end up at Movies 10 Friday night to watch an indie flick, Brothers Bloom. It was a really really good movie -- the plot, especially nearing the end, was fantastic!! We both agreed that the stars of the film [Adrien Brody, Rachel Weisz, Mark Ruffalo, Rinko Kikuchi] had some great fashion.

PS: Random Fact of the Day - Did you know that Elaine and I have known each other since we were 4 years old? That means we've been friends for 13 years. CRAZY!
PPS: We almost have 200 members in our Facebook group and almost 1000 page views here. YAY!
PPPS: Last night, I was whining about shakos being everywhere on Twitter ["... i see another marching shako on another korean pop celeb. ... why??? why shakos? why are they fashionable? =|"], and Mr. Lipe [former student band director] replied: "Shakos are the way of the future. You can't deny it; you might as well embrace it! You should wear one on the first day of school." Touché, touché.
PPPPS: Also, guess what I realized? The vest that CL of 2NE1 is wearing [in the previous entry] is the same as the one in our banner! That means it's a 3.1 Phillip Lim vest. Pretty cool. I am still hunting for my own military vest/jacket. Hmhmhm.

mish mash

This is just a bunch of random stuff that I wanted to share.

First, two Twitter-related events. I told the Uniform Project brains [AKA Sheena Matheiken] that I blogged about her and got a reply!

AND, I won something off of a F21 Twitter Tuesday contest! LOL. So they first asked a question regarding a twitpic. You were supposed to name the Summer Must-Have according to their website [the romper! -- I agree!], and then choose which of the three tops you wanted. However, no one claimed the first one, so they said to name the name of their blog [The Skinny] right as I refreshed my Twitter homepage. Therefore I was the first to reply! YAY! Here's the conversation, and what I won.

Top #1 [It's short so I guess I'll have to work my belly and/or layerlayerlayer.]

If you guys have twitter.. well, I guess you can see my username in those pictures, so follow me if you so desire! (: Click here.

Okay, next subject, Chictopia. I made an account like, maybe a week ago. But wasn't really sure about what outfit to post first so I haven't uploaded any pictures yet. But, if you guys have Chictopia accounts, befriend me there! Click here.

Remember zippers? Well, here's another great accessory that I found on F21 with zipper accents.

Zipper Trim Flower Headband $5.80

Also, military/marching-band style jackets are everywhere in Korean pop fashion right now. And what's even weirder to me [I'm down with the jackets] is that shakos [AKA the hats worn for marching band] are too!

The ever-so-fashion-forward G-Dragon of Big Bang in their newest Japanese music video, Gara Gara Go. [I know these are not the best quality pictures or the most flattering, but I had to work with screencaps and uncompromising YouTube videos. Also, later in the video, you see TOP wearing a red military jacket.]

Another picture of GD, this time in a red military jacket and a single white glove [MJ style!!] for the filming of Big Bang's Hite Beer CF.

House Rulez in their new concept for their 2.5 album. [shako -- far left, saxophone -- center, military vest -- far right]

CL of 2NE1 for their first mini-album cover photoshoot with a military-style vest.

SNSD for their new military concept for Tell Me Your Wish (Genie).

The Plano Band style. [Although no one is actually wearing them in these pictures... but that is besides the point. Photo credit: Grace Suarez]

Also, I have some kind of top-secret info regarding something that may be coming up with Shake the World hehe. I am very excited, so I'll keep yall posted!

Also, TOMS Shoes just showed up on my sidebar on Facebook. FB is such a stalker [it probably got TOMS Shoes from me and Devin's wall posts about them].

Okay, I think I'm done being random. Also, I would like to apologize for how image-heavy all of my entries are. I just like pictures =( They're worth a thousand words, right? Haha. Also, I would like to apologize for my incessant use of "also."

[Because this is so random, look at how many tags I have for this. Crazyyy.]
