Christmas Wish List Item # 1
2007-11-06 03:59:00 I've been on a self-imposed exile from jewellery lately. I haven't bought any new pieces, because when you run a shopping blog you find a new great thing every day and it gets a little overwhelming. However, this Hammered Layers Necklace from Orange Button is absolutely perfect, but a little out of my price range. Lucky for me, it's almost Christmas ! More About: List , Item
I Really Need A Job
2007-11-05 17:01:00 I think I've previously mentioned my love of sticky notes. I especially love them in assorted sizes and colours. So this Self-adhesive Note Set from Russell+Hazel is, in my opinion, an absolutely essential buy for the office. Not only are the colours adorable, but the little ones are called "chicklets" and that is reason enough to make me want them. I'd also like to mention that the Russell+
Woody Allen (Without Heels)
2007-11-05 13:15:00 Encountered 'Who Tall Are You?' in my goode olde locale bookshoppe last week. While hardly a Eames chair, I'd imagine it would be an interesting talking point during dinner parties... for the rest of your life.

PSA: Word Games
2007-11-03 02:53:00 Free Rice combines the best of both worlds: charity and online games. Learn words, test your vocab and help donate grain to impoverished countries. So even if you are avoiding work at the office, you are still being productive in the grand scheme of things (take that, facebook). In fact, we should give you a medal.

In The Style Of...
2007-11-01 13:47:00 I guess I've consumed enough bangers and mash for, a few days ago, I was awarded with the British fashionista's secret: ASOS (as seen on screen). It took a lot of white wine but I got it! Basically? Webshop which copies outfits from the red carpet/Starbucks espresso lines and sells them to the (British) public. I realize that creating clothes that replicate celebrity wear is not a real original More About: Style
My Arm Is Cheaper Than $30
2007-11-01 13:09:00 I am a big fan of self-photography... that is stretching your arm out and taking a picture of your and your eighteen friends drunkenly huddled together on the dancefloor in some club (or, for some reason, the street afterwards). Why? Basically at that distance the flash automatically photoshops your face to look as smooth and luminous as a Maxim cover model. And no one will steal your camera.
Bizarre Theatre
2007-11-01 04:06:00 Dear Thomas Paul, Please stop with the whole "everything I make is amazing" thing you've got going on. I mean, I appreciate it and all, but my sanity (and my bank account) can't take it anymore. I get a little depressed when I see you come out with one beautiful thing after another. Your line of tote bags is no exception. More About: Bizarre , Theatre , Thea
Our Existence Has Serious Side Effects
2007-10-30 19:23:00 It's no big surprise that I would immediately fall in love with the new Wintersleep album, Welcome to the Night Sky, but to give you an idea of how much I love it, I just listened to the song "Dead Letter" about seven times in a row. IT'S THAT GOOD. For realz. More About: Side , Side Effects , Effects , Existence
Beauty Before Age
2007-10-30 16:18:00 I am totally head over heels in love with Shannon Fagan's work. Her Nursing Home series is adorable and touching and gorgeous all at the same time. (via swissmiss) More About: Beauty
You're My Hero
2007-10-30 01:40:00 So I was going to post this and try to pass it off as something for the boys, since Ty has been harping about buying this game for the past, like, hundred years. BUT. We picked it up yesterday morning and BOTH of us have been playing it non-stop ever since. Yes, I'll admit, I do enjoy Guitar Hero III for XBox 360 with the wireless remote guitar (my male counterpart made sure that I included
Oh Those Bones, Oh Those Skeleton Bones
2007-10-29 23:14:00 Do you know that Jenga is my favourite game? Well, it is. But I might have to convert over to this deliciously spooky Bone Stacking Game from Chocosho for Halloween! I don't think I could help but sing "Dry Bones " every time I play it though. More About: Skeleton , Kele

Turn Up The Volcom
2007-10-28 21:10:00 I really enjoy the Volcom site. Because I am a huge skater. No seriously. Because I love their Volcom Artist Gallery. It's just y'know... rad.Ok, and their clothes are also kind of hip. Check it out. More About: Turn
I Like Wooden Bangles

Halloween Spirit
2007-10-27 21:16:00 It's almost Halloween . That means it's perfectly o.k. to buy yourself this pair of Kawaii Skeleton Over The Knee Socks that you secretly love, as long as you pretend they are just for the holiday spirit, and not for every day wear. (Even though they totally are) More About: Spirit , Allo
A Murder Of Crows
2007-10-26 21:34:00 When I signed up for a photography class recently, I had forgotten that you actually need to bring things to classes, like books and paper and other required materials. A backpack was out of the question because they are way too bulky, and almost never cute. So I decided on this Crow Tote from pushmepullyou design, and I feel like it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. More About: Murder
The Elephants Are Coming!

Tagua, Say WHAT?
2007-10-26 18:14:00 I love rings. I especially love big rings. But I only have ONE ring in my entire accessories collection. And it's one of those boring wear-everyday-to-show-that-you-are-in -a-relationship rings. You know what kind of ring I'm talking about. So, to fix this problem, I am going to purchase one of these "fabulously big" Tagua Nut Rings from The Carrotbox in EVERY COLOUR. Take that, jewelry box!
PSA: TED Talks
2007-10-26 14:38:00 I figure its been awhile for some cheap entertainment here at LIAL. And to prove we are not just a bunch of pretty, gorgeous, flawless faces I will share with you some TED talks lectures. TED is a huge, annual ideas conference. Conceived by an information designer (like me!) they aim to get brilliant people into rooms and then let them puke out their idea guts. For the betterment of the world,
For The Boys
2007-10-26 14:25:00 Please, I do not want to get into a gender role argument but I think AK may be postmodern enough to play with these dada dolls. I dunno he seems 'into these things' if you know what I mean (and by that I mean Constructivism, Futurism, Dadaism, etc). Let me introduce you to 'Frank' (above) and for LIAL ladies, there is Callie who has cakes inside! More About: Boys , The Boys
Feature Wall
2007-10-26 14:10:00 While the real grownups may have developed some class, I still buy my picture frames at Ikea. And even then, ambitious as most of my photos are on: flickr, harddrive, box on my dresser, taped to the wall (in that order). I'm sorry, spending loads of money per frame seems ridiculous, as well as hanging them up straight and properly (no tape). Which is why I'm quite chuffed to see wallpaper More About: Feature , Wall
No Really, Get This Out Of Here
2007-10-26 04:35:00 The last time I didn't feel well, I googled my symptoms and diagnosed myself with either Leukemia or a brain tumor. I was fine. My point? Someone needs to keep this book away from me. More About: Get This
Brought To You By The Letter W
2007-10-26 04:26:00 I love, absolutely LOVE, these Reverse Carved Initial necklaces from Day-Lab. These beautiful vintage pieces were carved in lucite sometime during the last century. And you know what? They are fabulous. I just realized they sell a W. W as in White Elephant Vintage. It's official... I have to get one. More About: Letter
Good Mornin' Happy Campers Everywhere!
More articles from this author:2007-10-25 18:01:00 Did you know that I did not go camping once this past summer? I KNOW. Travesty, right? Well, there's nothing I can do about it now except cry, and maybe buy this Great Outdoors Notecard Set from The Curiosity Shoppe to remind me why I must plan things farther in advance next year.
