Regular blogging programming will resume next week. Please bear with me.For now I just can't bring myself to blogging about fashion and my usual "day-to-day" life when this heartbreaking tragedy is still very fresh here in my country.

I just saw the pilot episode of the Ashton Kutcher-produced show 'The Beautiful Life' and I can already tell that it will have a SERIOUS following among the young and the fashion-enthused.

I'm also using every single spare time available to practice on my sewing. Yep, I've finally taken my old...

Who knew that there would actually be some spare time to do this? Thank my lucky stars for this incredible day job(go on-air, do nothing. go on-air, do nothing. repeat 50x)! So today I decided to finally get a move on with this simple DIY project that involved some nuking and a little bit of [hand]sewing (since i couldn't lug the machine to...

Image haul courtesy of the Flickrs of Calamity Jem, Post Scriptum and The CovetedI've been thinking a lot about DIYing things lately. Among the one million other things I need to do and think about.
