Halloween Countdown 2010 Day 30: Edmund Dressed As Batman In Gaia Online

The shop keepers at Gaia Online are once again dressed up in costumes and handing out candy for Halloween. One of the most interesting is Edmund at H&R Wesley. He is obviously dressed up as Batman with a white pointy beard. Too bad Louie is dressed as a white suited vampire instead of Robin.

Militarize!

Rock The Trend

One trend I`am excited to try out this winter is Military. I know it has been around for sometime but I didn`t do it last winter. I think I like it more this season. I specially love the jackets.  The Michael Jackson ones!  His death really brought these back. I like how you can pair it up with different textures to make a hard or soft look.

Here are some looks I put together for different occasions and with different types of styles.






Night Out 


This is a very hard look with all the buttons and embellishments.
Zara has a similar coat for Rs.5,590/-


Lunch/Brunch
This is a soft and feminine look while the jacket gives it a little structure.


Running Errands In The Cold
The ring and studs are from forever 21
This is a perfect no fuss look. Laid back and casual and it has all the Military colors!

These type of jackets will be available in any high fashion store like Zara, Mango even Forever 21.

Although I have been dying to get my hands on these Balmain jackets.Its what started my love for military coats!



[I`ve tried and used clothes that wont be hard to find in India. The picture may not be of products or brands available here but I`am sure you can get something that looks like it. Wherever possible I have tried to mention where the products are from and where you can get similar things. But I haven't mentioned all the products because I see no point in talking about things which are absolutely not available here and its easier to find things which look like it without burning a hole in your pocket.]

Did you like the looks i put together?                    How would you rock this trend?

What are the trends you are excited to try out this coming winter?

How?

Now we all know Taylor Momsen who plays Jenny Humpfrey on Gossip Girl.
So you must remember sweet little Jenny from Brooklyn right?

Good.


SO how does this sweet little girl
 


go on to become 
this...

There are about a gazillion pictures of her dressed inappropriately. Here is another one which puzzles me greatly.What is Wrong with this girl. She`s just seventeen for gods sake. I mean you can see another Lindsay Lohan waiting in the line.
And her inappropriateness doesn't stop at her dressing sense. She has a band called 'The Pretty Reckless' They were performing I think a week ago somewhere and guess what our favorite raccoon eyed teen did? She flashed the audience. I kid you not, Google it. Did i mention she`s SEVENTEEN? I mean wtf? She`s Underage! So does that mean the entire audience can go to jail for that though? But atleast she had pasties on! (to cover her..you know)
She`s real classy I tell you.
She`s the perfect kind of role model the teens of today need! 

But she this gives me a great idea for a Halloween costume! [How many of you wish we in India celebrated proper Halloween and not the cheap version of it! Its the perfect holiday you get to dress up and try to be as creative as possible!] Anyway. If you want to go as Taylor Momsen for Halloween all you need is something black and teeny tiny (preferably ribbed) to cover your personal parts (or not!) and some charcoal.

STEP 1- Close your eyes 
Step 2- Rub charcoal all around eyes

Tada!

Gossip Girl Easy J Welcome Home.

Tim GunnIsaac Mizrahi and Ivanka Trump all came out for gossip Girls latest episode. And so did Blake Lively`s Boobs.

I dont mind the whole boobs out all the time thing. Sometimes she looks good with all the flaunting but not this blazerish top.[How cute is Serena`s latest conquest? Or conquerer?]  Come on. They could`ve given her a much better top. And the hair. My god. I dont know why this weird stringy braid and totally tangled hair are her favorite hairstyles.

One person who Did have good hair this episode was...


The Hump
even though I hate to admit it, she looked alright.


Jenny was pretty okay in the whole episode actually. And what she said to Blair and Chuck was true!



Quick shout out to Leighton Meester looking fab in a Victoria Beckam dress.



The best scene hands down was





You could actually feel the chemistry between these two. And the timing of the song was just perfect [Love The Way You Lie-Eminem ft Rihana]
Thank god they`ve stopped their 'war' So now there are more chances of them getting back together!! I cannot wait btw.


Favourite quotes

Chuck: Before you say anything I'm only calling because I saw Gossip Girl. I wondered if I might be able to offer some assistance.
Dan: Well unless it's a murder-suicide I think I'll pass.
Chuck: So dramatic. You should be a writer

Blair: Are you happy now that you've humiliated both of us?
Chuck: It's in your own bloody hands, Lady Macbeth


Penelope: The Boom Boom Room is a private club and we're having trouble with the door guy. Can you help?
Blair: Penelope. This isn't Congress. Accomplish something!
