"The artificial fascinates me, the bright and shiny"

Aron and I headed to downtown Nashville on Sunday to see the Warhol Live exhibit at The Frist. I wasn't really allowed to take photos inside the exhibit, but I managed to sneak a few. Don't worry, I didn't use the flash :)

The Flying Saucer is next door to The Frist, this is where I will have my birthday gathering in a few weeks. 
I loved the exhibit, and the ability for Warhol's art to make me smile....and to think. His work asked the question-What is art? I feel Warhol's work is art, but some people disagree.....and that is what makes it wonderful :)

The exhibit focused on Warhol's relationship with music and dance. I love The Velvet Unerground, and it was fab to learn more about them and their music.

After The Frist, we went to Sitar for some yum Indian food, and some Ben & Jerrys :)
I leave you with one of my favorite songs. Have a great week!

Fall Wishlist Part One

Yes, like every other blogger in the land, I am presenting you with my Fall wishlist. Am I the only one who starts planning my Fall wardrobe in July? Didn't think so :)

My Fall style (and style in general) seems to be a hybrid of retro/pinup looks with a dash of earthy and hard edge stuff thrown in. I have no idea if this works or not, but let's hope it does.



ASOS CURVE Embroidered Shoulder Bed Jacket


ASOS CURVE Exclusive Katie Lace Dress


Black Cherry Lace Back Cardigan


I can't currently afford the ASOS items on my wish list, so I will be patient and hope they end up on clearance one day.


Now, onto wishes that came true. I purchased this ASOS maxi dress on sale a few weeks ago, and it fits well, aside from being about a foot too long. But then again, I am 5'5.


ASOS CURVE Exclusive Tank Maxi Dress

I purchased the sweater below with my Torrid Haute Cash. I was up in the air about the pattern/color, but I am glad I took the gamble and purchased it. The fit is AMAZING! Trust me ladies, you want this sweater. I think I will pair it with the maxi dress and boots, when it's not 97 degrees outside.





The last dress was purchased last night. It is on sale for around $25, so I went for it. I love to layer shorter dresses with leggings, boots, and sweaters in the Fall and Winter.


Well, back to reality. Hope you all have a fab weekend :)

Blood, Sweat, and Pizza

Hello Again,
Yes, I have been super busy....blah, blah, blah. I've been in work horse mode, and not feeling very inspired. But, I have a few life nuggets to share, so here I go.....


We set up at Fright Night Film Festival in Louisville, KY last weekend. The show was OK....we didn't make the profit we had hoped, but we did alright, so I can't complain too much. One thing I can bitch about is the air conditioning situation. The air was on the fritz in the dealer room, making for some sweaty moments. So, here is a sampling of some sweaty photos below:

On our way out of town, we stopped by a rad pizzeria called Spinellis. They have the walls plastered with comic book covers, so Aron and the guys went nuts :) Oh, and there was no air conditioning at the restaurant either :)

Where's my pizza?

Have a great Sunday :)

Wish I was inspired......

...to write a lengthy post, but today is just not the day for it. We spent most of last weekend doing funnybook inventory for one of our businesses, Twisted Heroes. Thank goodness Ben and Tracy helped us, or it would have taken us a month!

Here are some life nuggets from yours truly....

I have been obsessed with hair scarves, here I am sporting a cherry one from Domino Dollhouse.
