keeping note

It’s sooo damn hot! Cypress and I can’t take the heat…it’s unbearable. We went home for the long weekend and have done absolutely nothing; it’s too hot to want to do anything.

At times like these there’s only one logical thing to do. Enjoy the air-conditioning at my parents house and online shop hha. Seriously, when you want something to do, turn to the internet.

I started out watching stuff on youtube, but I felt like I was caught up on all my subscriptions so then I decided to check out my online shopping haunts. What was I looking for? Bags…definitely not clothes…I stuffed myself with 4th of July deliciousness which meant I felt horribly deformed.

I found some really cute bags though. The theme being very Ivy league Oxfordian Indian Jones! It’s very Cypress (my sister/KN writer) Hah hopefully I can get her to buy one and I’ll just borrow them from here :D!

Hmmm…Shall we going in order of price? Yeah, we’ll go from least to wallet hemorrhaging…

ON CALL CANVAS DOCTOR BAG

I actually think Cypress bought this bag (YESSS! :D) It’s such a good deal too because it’s on sale for under 30 bucks! It has leather detailing and is exclusive to Urban Outfitters…they always have cute, (over priced) stuff. I really only buy from them when they have a sale or if it’s an item I’ve been obsessing over. If you wanna be twinsies and buy the bag too CLICK HERE…there are more detailed pictures too.

CENTRAL PARK BAG

This casual bag has a smart look to it and it looks big enough to tote around your scholarly needs like library books. Honestly, I’d bring my library books in it hha. It’s animal friendly too ^.^ woof! Che Che Check it out HERE.

IVY LEAGUE WEEKENDER

PICNIC bag! I really like the plaid with the vinyl trim. The trim actually looks like it’s going to look even better as it ages( like George Clooney)…or if the vinyl scratches and gets beat up a little it’s just gong to add some vintage character (not so good for Clooney). The Bag is 66 bucks, but if you buy it from Fred Flare, before Monday the shipping is free. Clickity click click HERE to see more of the weekender.

FILSON MEDIUM FIELD BAG

Ok, get some band aids for your wallet because this ones gonna leave some marks. Filson’s Medium Field bag has an amazing and clean look to it. It’s made for action and it can hold quite a bit. It’s the same price as most Fossil bags with the same look, but I love the feel and look of this bag more then their messengers. If you’ve got 200 bucks laying around you must be riding a bike, because most people are feeding their cars with their moolah. I’m sure this bag looks great while bike riding hahaha. CLICK HURR for the Filson bag.

WAH! I really want to buy ALL of them…hmmm…I’LL BUY THEM ALL!

(Man…this heat is really making me delusional.)

Check out the Woot.com shirt of the day.

They must be getting ready for Jack in the Box’s free taco day!

BTW…if you haven’t heard of woot.com…they’re a deal a day site. Each day they have 1 great deal and that’s it, even if they sell out. I’ve seen anything from iPods and computers to comic books and toys for sale at amazing prices. They also do a t-shirt a day too…like the awesome one above. It’s called “The Greasy Grasp Of God”. Delicious.

To buy the shirt CLICK HERE.

If you want it you should buy it ASAP. The designs are only up for 24 hours and if they sell out you’re SOL…I haven’t seen a reprint yet.

I am a slave to product placement. When I saw Speed strut across screen in that blue jacket, I knew that I had to have it. Whether I wore it or I roped my boyfriend/brother/anyone into wearing, I knew that this movie wasn’t the end of me and the jacket.

I don’t feel ashamed because everyone has had a moment like this. After tirelessly searching for the jacket, I was just about to give up until I found this webpage.

filmjackets.com

These guys help you find the jacket you are looking for. Search their site and see all of the great movie apparel they’ve hunted down from Indiana Jones to Cry Baby. They even confirm if it’s the actual brand manufacturer from the film.

I’ve asked them to find one for me since it’s their specialty. I know it’s from a company called Belstaff that outfits tons of hollywood blockbusters. Let’s hope the site can come through!

Olly Moss’ 88 ghosts shirt is going to be mine. It’s so cute!

If the name Olly Moss sounds familiar it’s because he’s credited with some great shirts that are available on threadless.com. Like THIS ONE. I bought his threadless shirt, “spoilt”, a while back because I was feeling the typography…plus I’m in love with things that are film related.

But yeah, the 88 ghost shirt sold out last time I checked and now that it’s available again I’m stoked.

“‘Yves Saint Laurent died Sunday at 11.10pm,’ the source in Pierre-Berge-Saint Laurent Foundation said.”

Whoa! Pete Wentz’s clothing line, Clandestine, is available at Nordstroms.

They carrying hoodies, screened tees and an exclusive DVD.

Here’s the bulletin that Fall Out Boy posted through Myspace:

“Hey guys, check out Pete Wentz’s new fashion line exclusive to Clandestine Industries and BP.

Nordstrom!

The styles include a bunch of super cute, art-themed tops. The series of cereal box-screened tees are so delicious we’d eat them if we could! The word search hoody and tank are also a couple of our faves… think ya can you figure out what all the word jumbles actually mean?

There’s also an exclusive Fashion Documentary DVD. You get to go behind the scenes and see some interview footage with Pete, see his house, meet his cute lil pup Hemingway andddd get a peek of his not-so-normal life. It’s kinda awesome.
Go in store or shop the online boutique at Nordstrom. com and check it out!

Oh, and by the way, you can also visit the BP. Nordstrom MySpace page or download a Hemingway ringtone on the BP. Mobile site.

And don’t forget to check out Fall Out Boy’s live cd/dvd, “**** Live In Phoenix”, featuring “Beat It”.

Head over to iTunes now to purchase “Beat It,” complete with a fresh solo from John Mayer!”

Clandestine in Nordstrom? WEIRD. I would never think to associate the two together…it seems… almost unholy.

I’m sure it’s going to be placed in the tween juniors section, be an online exclusive, or snuck next to the L.A.M.B. displays.

But at least it will distract people from this.

Yikes! I saw this at Nordstrom a while ago…it looks screened on and it cost over 400 bucks :/

I will give him this- the word search hoodies are cute and he didn’t jack up the price even though it’s in Nordstom.
