Katie Holmes, Jimmy Choo, and Rattle Snakes...

What does a girl do on a Saturday night when her husband is working the late shift in the ER? Surf's fashion sites of course. I found a site that is completely 100% dedicated to Katie Holmes hair. Yes, it has finally happened. Her hair has gained more celebrity status than her acting capabilities. It's true, the only time you hear of her (minus Suri) in the news these days is when she gets a new ugly cut. I use to think Ms. Holmes was a cute girl but since she cut her hair into that yucky bob two years ago, it's been all down hair (oops, I mean hill). She looks like my old high school gym teacher with the really, really, really short hair. Very few woman can pull that look off (like Halle Berry). Halle Berry is gorgeous in short hair.


I think 90% of us have made that mistake of cutting our hair super short before. I was a thirteen when I asked my mom's hairdresser to cut my hair into a short sassy style. It was the early 90's and I wanted to look like Josie Bissett off Melrose Place (old school Melrose) but it turned out more like the lead singer, Mike Score, for the Flock of Seagull's (not cute). Thankfully those newsboys hats were in style that year while it grew out.

Did y'all see the Jimmy Choo "Blyth" collection? I love this bag! It's large enough to be a decent mid size tote but elegantly shaped. And those side straps gives it a little devilish personality. Yes, I really like this bag. Will my husband let me drop $1900 for one, ummm....gotta say no. But hey, a girl can dream. The name makes me chuckle because theirs a burned out desert town on the border of California/Arizona called, Blythe. We drive right through it on I-10 between L.A. and Phoenix. When we are back in California visiting relatives Richard likes to tease snooty strangers by telling them he's from Blythe just to watch their reaction. He gets them going for awhile until he finally reveals that he's not from there. It's hilarious to watch their eyes when he talks about killing rattle snakes for lunch, LOL! Guess you have to be there. It's late and I'm heading off to bed. Have a fabulous weekend.

Love the bag but not for $1900... not gonna happen over here. :) Love the stories about y'all visiting family. Too funny!

I had my hair cut short in the 8th grade. It was inspired by an Esprit Ad. Remember that brand? My dad hated it; I haven't had it short again!

I totally remember Espirit! I use to have the rainbow Espirit bag. Remember the black one with the bright rainbow lettering? My sister had the white Espirit sweatshirt.
