Apology note pad $5

Product description : Make communication simple with these little note pads. When you're at a loss for words, just check the boxes or fill in a few simple blanks and voila, you've got a silent (and sometimes hilarious) way to get the point across.

"How to make me happy" checklist $7

Product description : Check yourself, or that special someone -- before one of your wrecks yourselves. Honesty is easier when you harness the power of multiple-choice options and say what you mean: Start smoking, Take the high road, Give a damn. Choose the when and the what, and how much you want it -- then sign off to make yourself understood.

Drinking game $9.99

Product description :The most f*cked up drinking game ever; now dirtier and grosser than ever! Would you staple your lips together for $100,000? Would you rather catch food poisoning or head lice? And lots of other things we can't repeat here. Predict your friends' answers, and if you're wrong, drink up! Comes with dice, game chips, and 2 question booklets.

Linus blanket $34

Remember Linus from the Charlie Brown comic strip? Remember his blanket?
Now you can have one too !

Photo album $16

In case you can't see the words clearly, it says "Best F**king Trip Of My Life". LOL.

Give Me Some Bacon !

Faux Bacon Strip Bandages, $5 from fredflare.com

Aren't these bandages the cutest thing ?
They should also come up with a sunny side up egg design, and maybe toast as well. Then they can call it a Breakfast Pack ;D

Trend : Leggings

In summer, leggings were paired with tunic tops and dresses.
This trend has made the transition into Fall, and looks great with sweater dresses or knitted tunics. You can dress up the look with boots, or go casual with a pair of flats.
And it's great for travel too. It doesn't crease, takes up minimal space, and you can wear it in so many different ways. Check out the many ways that leggings can be worn :

Jovovich-Hawk

Did you know that actress Milla Jovovich has a clothing label?
Jovovich-Hawk was launched last year, and is a collaboration with her friend Carmen Hawk.

Milla (left) and Carmen Hawk (right) with a model

Having seen her in movies like Fifth Element, Resident Evil and Ultraviolet, I had somehow assumed her personal style in real life would be similar to those kick-ass characters that she often plays.
So I was quite surprised to see that underneath it all, she's a girly girl after all ;)
Check out these pieces from their Spring 2007 collection.

Frock Horror

I don't quite know what to say about this dress, except - what was he thinking when he designed this??? I can't decide if the skirt looks like an ostrich, or a bush. Either way, I can't imagine anyone who would want to wear this.
OK, perhaps Bjork.
