If there's one thing I love, its riding on the back of a motorcycle topless.

GOD BLESS 'MURICA!

Shot by Jason Lee Parry for QVEST, I couldn't resist sharing this awesomeness.

Models Masha Rudenko & Nadiya Chenko play two free-spirited young ladies on the open road in ripped denim, sheer layers, leather, and ripped T's. Like I said, makes me want to hop on a bike topless (EN VOGUE).

Reinventing the pen

In my hunt for reinvented throw-away objects, I came across these creative and very inspired little designs. In 2005 BIC sold its one hundred

billionth pen, which doesn't come as a HUGE surprise when you consider how many pens you have gnawwwwed the ends off of and tossssed away. Its a throw away object that can be kept out of landfills with a little creativity and resourcefulness.

Check out some ways a few imaginative minds have decided to reinvent the little blue, black, & red pens; quite clever...

RALPH LAUREN'S URBAN COWBOY CHANNELING ANNIE HALL

I think we all said: "ohh-la-la" to Ralph Lauren's Urban Cowboy themed show in New York yesterday, however, why was "la-di-da" resonating in my lil' head's amphitheater?

I must say, I saw a young Diane Keaton and her lovely character, ANNIE HALL shining through the looks. From the neckties and flowwwing coats and sweaters, to the Derby and delicious Pork Pie hats, Annie Hall's spirit of style prevailed.

While the showing was absolutely stunning, there were a few design elements that have been described as: "...heavy-handed...", costumy, and over-the-top Western. And while costumey belts and a suede jacket that might go down as the peacocking braggart of fringed, suede items of this decade were all present at roll call, I am a full-on supporter of grocery store runs in TOP HATS and pink wigs - so I am certainly not in the complaining club. I found the show to be beautiful, wearable, and very in touch with what WOMEN want. Therefore I sayyyyyy:

BRAVO SIR LAUREN!

Listening to: the quote that's stuck in my heead: "I just don't want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member..."

Marc Jacobs

So here are some key looks from the Marc by Marc Jacobs show in New York earlier today.

It looks to me as if Mr. Jacobs is still feelin' that midi skirtn' disco vibe as overall, the collection feels very young and fresh, with a very distinct nod to the 70's.

With high waists, retro bathing suit bottoms, and stripes runnin' all up n' down that runway,

the modelas, led by Swedish beauty Frida Gustavsson all hit the runway with frizzy hair like Gina from Scarface, blowin' in the stuffy wind of the stark white runway.
