The MP3 Experiments aka Flash Mobs

Flash mobs are when a group of people pick a predetermined place and time to spontaneously (to other people who aren't participating) bust out in some kinda crazy pre-planned activity like a dance orrrrr taking off your pants on the subway. LOL These have become increasingly popular because they are an effective way to grab a large group of peoples attention and apparently they're also very fun. Target recently had a flash mob perform at one of their store locations. A group of dancers led by former American Idol contestant, Todrick Hall, broke out into a choreographed dance to Beyonce's, "Till the End of Time", in celebration of her new album, 4, which Target is currently carrying an exclusive, deluxe, version of. Improv Everywhere, the New York city based group responsible for the No Pants Subway Ride in which 5,000+ New Yorkers participated in this winter, has added a twist by using a download-able MP3 to direct these flash mobs in real time! Their website says that each event is usually 45 minutes long, and they do it once a year in New York. For more info and pics click here. You can just image how disruptive this could potentially be lol Aside from the MP3 Experiments the group has tons of "missions" on their website.

SO! Tell me would you be down to participate in one of these random activities?? LOL

"Eyes Wide Shut"

I previously posted this "Eyes Wide Shut" look and deemed it ridiculous but it makes for a cool effect in this black and white pic from Gaga's tumblr page, amenfashion.tumblr.com

Hennessy VS Cognac x KAWS




Im not a fan of Hennessy but I would love to own one of these limited edition bottles designed by New York artist, KAWS. They are numbered and only available at select distributors. The bottle is branded with all of KAWS signature details.

I also learned that Hennessy supports America for the Arts and has partnered with the organization on the Artistry GIVES campaign which supports the advancement of arts education and provides resources for emerging artists around the country.

"Become a fan of Hennessy Artistry GIVES. Hennessy will donate $1 to Americans for the Arts for every new fan beginning on September 15th with a goal of donating $25,000. Click the “like” button here to play your part!"

Made to Fit


This is a great gift for a seamstress, tailor, designer, or someone with a love for fashion. The bangle which is a replica of a measuring tape was designed by Monserat De Lucca. Being in the fashion industry I can tell you that this is one item that is just as important as a pen and a pad. Image via trendhunter
