Speaking of leather jackets... I grew up in a tiny town where all this stuff is made for export. So there was always some really good export surplus around for those in the know. I have bought some drop-dead gorgeous boots for as less as the INR equivalent of 15$! And leather jackets in all lengths and colors for 30 to 50 $.
I love her look. I think I am going to dig out some old jackets.

God, I love Mark. Wayfarers, not! But my brother loves them. In any case, I don't see a point in asking for the deadline, considering India is not in the running for Streetwalker. Or is it?
But Natalie, next time you are here, for a spiritual quest or whatever, do check out the fashion scene in the subcontinent.

The colors are great, love the boots. The tights though are not happening.
A friend of mine makes the kind of necklace she is wearing.

Are these for real? Of course, I will wait till next September! I have never been good with pens myself, so I guess I will just have to wait.

I got married two years ago and invested in a set of sturdy Samsonite luggage. It works for me. I totally agree that expensive luggage can make a you a target for thieves.

Not happening for me. I agree with Holly... looks like table cloth.

Trust me, your friend is not the only one! I have a neighbour like that. I work from home, so comfort comes first for me. I have this set of wear at home tees that I would spend all my life in if I didn't have to step out. So yes, we do dress up for other. Really.

Ummm... beautiful visual. But have to agree with Rockmantica. It seems familiar.

Ummm... The necklace is cool, for sure. But then again, it's plastic. I say one word, Clearance!

You know what? If I ever had that kind of money, I'd pay her 1 M to perform. Gawd, she is cool. Minus the drugs, more so.

Wow! Would they want one from India? I am a big fan of TS. I choose my stuff online and then get my family to pick it up for me.

Look what you've started! That many comments? What two penny bit can I possibly add? Oh yeah. Asian skin. Sallow and prone to break-outs, even at the ripe old age of THIRTY!
Not wearing make-up helps. Well, sort of. Though I dread to think of what it would be like if I wore make-up.
Entry: The Comics Are Coming...

Oh come on, Guest@17 Mar...! The influence of comic books has sort of been around for some time, but not really endorsed by the big names. Manga comics have always been a huge fashion influencer, especially in Asian countries.
This had to happen. Really. I mean, look at Hollywood! Sin City, 300, History Of Violence... Graphic novels have dominated the pop culture scene for quite sometime now. So this comes as no surprise. The hoodies were a flash in the pan. This... is going to just get bigger. And bigger.

Yeah... she has really slimmed down. I saw her in that Grind House movie and boy! She was BIG, and nice. But still, it's a welcome change.

Ummm... I'd say that it's far more motivating being at a gym with good-looking people around you. Raises standards or something. I don't really out on any make-up, since I try and work up a clean sweat, but cute gym clothes are really my thing.
