| Carlos Miele Fall/Winter 2008 | | 2008-07-15 11:41:00 | | I know it's a shame for someone who blogs about fashion to admit, but I JUST discovered Brazilian Fashion designer Carlos Miele and boy am I happy I did. His runway shows feature ready-to-wear fashion unlike most other designers, which I love.His look is best defined as "highly structured and busy pieces, bold color combinations, plenty of patchwork, bias-cut sheer gowns, clingy silhouettes, plunging necklines, low backs, and jagged hemlines open to the thigh." (NY mag).While watching the runway show I noticed his designs indeed include alot of simple looking dresses which gorgeous fabrics, spiced things up with very sexy, plunging back lines in intricate designs.Another trend in this Fall/Winter 2008 collection his the use of greys paired with various shades of green as well as ruffles.Check out clips from the runway show (; it's so worth the look because you get to see the sexy backs..); it's divided in 2 parts below.A few favorites of mine:Photo's: NY Mag | | By: ~*Come Share My Fashion Addictions*~ | | |

| Top 2 Jewelry Trends For Fall 2008 and Winter 2009 | | 2008-07-05 17:23:29 | | Unlike past seasons where minimalist clothes demanded that one goes sans jewelry, this seasons looks are best highlighted with statement pieces. Timeless pieces that turn heads and go with simple clothes in black, or rich colors. Hey, you can even wear with spring and summer's lightweight dresses to add oomph to your look.For starters, costume jewelry is back. With a vengeance. One can only go so far with precious gemstones. Even if you could afford statement jewelry items with giant diamonds or rubies, you would be a walking temptation to robbers, even in broad daylight. Who wants to get mugged?Even the very wealthy with stashes of priceless jewelry would keep the real items in a safe and wear imitations of their jewels in public.1. Trend #1 Stunning NecklacesThe best thing about these imitations is that they are very affordable. You could dress like a millionairess even if you are on a tight budget. Just accessorize your new gown or little black dress with an absolutely stunning neck | | By: Travelling a broad | | |

| Winter Afternoon along the Quais, Paris | | 2008-07-02 09:30:13 | | Winter Afternoon along the Quais, Paris, originally uploaded by Rita Crane Photography.This brisk winter afternoon in Paris, I was very much excited to take some pictures because it had rained and my favorite conditions were showing up. The low lying winter haze of the last 9 days that had prevented me taking the pictures I had hoped for, was finally over. I had extended my visit to Paris -- changed train reservations and hotel arrangements to stay an extra day in the hopes that there would be beautiful rainclouds and light. I was not disappointed: after visiting the Musee D'Orsay at midday, I came out onto the quai to a fabulous sky!! Slowly making my way towards Notre Dame I shot an entire set. The sun, being low in the west created a rosy golden wonderfulness, throwing winter shadows on the wall. The magic time of day was here!1. View in large if you like.2.

| How to be miserable in Winter | | 2008-06-26 18:33:00 | | Go on a low carb diet!My God....I have had a miserable week.The weather has been cold and windy and instead of cuddling up to nice hot high-carb food I am munching away on boring salads and chicken.I'm not sure how much longer I can go on for. And it's only been a week! Not even a week actually. 5 days. I have done this diet once before and had no where near as much misery. In fact, I didn't find it that hard to do. This time, I'm barely coping and moping around the cold office like Scrooge.Is feeling thinner the same as being thinner? If this is the case, then I can go off my diet and start cuddling up to yummy warm carbs. I do feel thinner. However this isn't going to help me come the Spring if I am actually not thinner and have only been kidding myself.Help! What to do...what to do...?? | | By: Sydney Girl | | |

| In the Darkness of Winter Hope Came..... | | 2008-06-10 14:57:48 | | Something remarkable happened this week in Our Country. Millions of people that barely know each other stood together and stood up for Change. And All the people came via a remarkable journey.The one aspect of the story that the Media rarely covered or even alluded to was the most beautiful. As Obama waged a battle across the Country, and as he came to every state, there was palpable excitement. Someone that wanted to talk about Our Civil Liberties and the Constitution and Fearmongering and the Senseless War, was standing in front of us. After 7.5 years of people huddled in their living rooms this man bravely spoke of Hope and Change.The lines were huge, thousands of people at hundreds of events, it was remarkable. In St.Paul the night of Obama's Victory, the lines were over a mile long to see him.19,000 filled the Excel Center, and then 15,000 stood out in the rain to listen to his Speech that night.People wanted to be a part of the Event and that moment in Our History.

| Winter Soldier Rules of Engagement | | 2008-05-30 09:15:55 | | On March 14 President George W. Bush spoke from the White House to U.S. soldiers during a video conference about their deployment in Afghanistan. "I'm a little envious. If I were slightly younger and not employed here, I think it would be a fantastic experience to be on the front lines of helping this young democracy succeed. It must be exciting for you...in some ways, romantic...you know, confronting danger."Romantic was not the picture painted just a few miles away in Silver Spring, Maryland, during the second day of testimony by U.S. veterans during "Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan," organized by Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW). "For those of you who don't know, those are brains," said Jon Turner, a former Marine, while showing a slide of the inside of a man's head who had been killed by one his friends in his platoon.Turner and other soldiers on the "Rules of Engagement" panel depicted their tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan as horrifying events in which soldiers indi | | By: The Peace Tree | | |

| Winter Morning Sunrise - Sky Watch Friday | | 2008-05-29 16:55:00 | | "Welcome to Winter!"Sunrise on a cold, clear morningSky Watch FridayWe're really into Winter here in Australia. The sun isn't rising now until about 6:20am, which means that I'll often get up when it's still dark. This is great for capturing sunrises, although it's not too conducive to getting out of bed!Another benefit of capturing sunrises during Winter is that the atmosphere is usually very clear. Often when the sun comes up there will be no clouds or haze in the sky, just a clear, cold morning. Of course, this means that the sunrise will look very different, and it is sometimes harder to get a good sunrise without any clouds. I'm hoping to wake up early enough one of these days to get the sun rising over the valley - landscape shots tend to work best on clear mornings.This photo taken with the Fujifilm S9600 digital camera.

| Winter shelters close, homeless encampments grow | | 2008-04-27 22:23:36 | | "The Amherst, MA Survival Center is starting to get more calls as emergency shelters are closing. People need tents," the email began. "Do you have one hanging around that a homeless person can use until they get on their feet? Please... we only have 2 left and the phone is ringing off the hook!!!"Thus begins the annual ritual of closing winter-only shelters, not only in Massachusetts but around the country. For the most part, homeless people won't be moving from the shelters to housing, although Springfield, MA's homeless coordinator says 7 of the 12 people in the overflow shelter do have housing waiting for them. Elsewhere in the state, Northampton's Cot Shelter will close on April 30. There are already 50 to 90 people sleeping out on the Cape, according to Cape Cod Today, in 40 or so small encampments.In Plano, TX, many of the homeless people that had to be turned away by the Samaritan in this winter have been sleeping in their cars in the parking lot of the local library-- at | | By: Michaelann Land | | |

The sun stings and the sky is as blue as a sky can get. This is the moment many of us have been waiting for, after the moody weather we had in Italy in the past months. Gone are the memories of rain, wind and dark loaded clouds.And by coincidence (there are no coincidences in life), our favourite spot in Fregene, Singita on Miracle Beach, is opening after their winter break. What more proof does one need to have that winter is over!Picture courtesy Matteo Cocco

| Protecting Your Herb Garden for the Winter | | 2008-04-09 11:27:29 | | Preparing your herb garden for the coming winter can actually be done in late summer or early fall. In order to prepare your garden for winter, do not fertilize when you are within about one month of a first hard frost. Most of your annual herbs will begin to die back during late summer and early fall months.To properly prepare your garden for winter, you may mulch and use cover crops to prevent soil from eroding from rain or snowmelt. In many cases, gardeners may also grow small patches of annual herbs between the perennial herbs in the garden. Perennials should be mulched during the winter. In most climates, except for the warmest ones found in the Southwest, such motions can provide insulation to the soil that will keep it warm during those winter months.However, wait until plants are dormant and about one inch of ground soil is frozen before you apply such mulch. If you are not sure, wait until temperatures at night have dropped into the 20s for at least three days and daytime temp | | By: Home and Garden - Information on Gardening, Garden | | |

We must have had about 2 inches in just a few hours. They had given for some snow, but going on what we normally have here we had no idea it would be anything like this. It has been a glorious morning with blue skies & sun so although the snowing is thawing its just blowing off the trees and hedges rather than dripping.

| Book Review: Winter's Bone by Daniel Woodrell | | 2008-03-06 19:24:17 | | Daniel Woodrell now has eight novels, the majority of which are set in the Missouri Ozarks, where the author resides. His most recent work, Winter’s Bone, presents the reader with a horrifyingly primal set of characters who live on the fringe of society. The book shines as an easily readable tragedy that has much in common with Dorothy Allison’s Bastard Out of Carolina (Allison endorses Winter’s Bone in its long list of PR snippets). Where Allison creates a compellingly torn character (Bone) whose main goal seems to be surviving and escaping her own hell, Woodrell creates Ree, a character who is comparable but lacking any real control of her own world. Winter’s Bone follows the tale of a young girl named Ree Dolly whose father, a “crank” cooker, disappears, leaving behind a debt that threatens to take the family home. Aside from Ree, the other characters are broadly drawn and Woodrell’s descriptions seem more focused on propelling action than explaining the motive | | By: Motiveless Crime | | |

Although most of the winter peonies or botan were past their best some of the blooms were splendid and retained their beauty.There are a number of different shades and shapes of peonies cultivated at Tokugawaen.From subtle salmon pinks to brassy reds and from tight compact flowers to the more exuberant ruffled styles.

| M.A.C Make-up Artist Vimi J on Winter '08 Trends (Part Two) | | 2008-02-14 07:00:00 | | Make-up this season is all about taking inspiration from the past and making it futuristic, or new age. Permanent beauty themes are now updated with new techniques and possibilities. Classic beauty statements are being translated into makeup that responds to the new digital age.Skin now goes beyond the pale and natural look into a technically transgressive trend that works with brand new possibilities of texture, three-dimensionality and light–effects.Katrina Kaif is wearing M.A.C Powder Blush in Frankly Scarlet“Skin this fall-winter should be highly-sculpted and 3D. This can be achieved by using M.A.C Studio Tech that matches your skin tone perfectly. You can then use deeper-toned blushes (M.A.C Powder Blushes in Frankly Scarlet, Flirt & Tease, Fever, Format, Ambering Rose) to add depth and dimension to you face. Finish the look by adding a highlighter (M.A.C Mineralize Skinfinish in Light Flush) on your cheekbones or under the brow and on the bow of your lips,†says Vimi Jo | | By: i heart make-up | | |

| winter strawberries (atami, japan) | | 2008-02-12 23:00:00 | |
this might sound a little strange, but the Japanese seem to have a fruit, vegetable and flower to mark each season. as winter starts to wane, many people go to these large greenhouses, pay about Y1300 ($12) and get a small two-partitioned plastic tray. one part is to hold the strawberry stems; the other holds a large glob of condensed milk.
then people are let lose inside one of the greenhouses-- eating as much as they please for 30 minutes.
one of my friends put it this way: 日本人の大好きなことは、食べ放題と飲み放題です。Japanese tend to love places that offer "all you can eat" and "all you can drink".
