We are always flipping through magazines to see what we can't live without. But sometimes, things get weird....
Like this one of Lady Gaga. I just want to say to her "get it together...you are better than this!" but then I think of her new jam "Love Game" and think, no this outfit is pretty right on.
Hello - Crazy! Someone should tell Furgi this hairdo only looks good if you are a samurai warrior. It is wound so tight it looks like it should be put around a pillow and sold at Pier 1.
Sometimes less is more. But other times, well, MORE is more. Looking at this picture I can think of several things Fugtoria Hevery could use more of including food, sunscreen, and fabric. YIKES!
We had one of our models come over this evening, and decided she will totally rock this yellow dress. It made us think how great yellow is. While we are certainly partial to pink (clearly) we have been totally digging the color yellow. It is just so happy and fun...there is no way you can wear yellow and be sad.
We would be remiss if we did not mention our long time swoon, Gavin Rossdale. Ok, so we maybe dating ourselves a bit with this one...but come on!
Gavin holds a special place in our hearts, partly because he looks really good without a shirt on, but mostly because once we found out we both shared the same fanatical love for Gavin as pre teens, we knew we would be friends for a long time.
Often we compare our then obsession over the Bush rocker by thinking of the weird things we did to show our love of Gavin....
Carly: Had a picture of Gavin in a heart frame, which she carried with her to sleepovers
Lauren: Had a Gavin themed birthday party, complete with cut outs of Gavin's face on Popsicle sticks, for the guests to wear as masks
Carly AND Lauren: Had a scrap books of Gavin's magazine photos
Is it hard to look back and think how weird and awkward we were? Yes, yes it is.
Our love for Gavin has been an inside joke between the two of us for a long time. For Carly's 23rd birthday Lauren made her a Gavin Rossdale themed cake - because she is cool like that.
But who could forget that magical moment he sang Glycerine in the rain
We may have grown out of the awkward pre teen obsession, but Gavin will also be a swoon....
Let's be real. The more time goes by, the less amount of people remember Wayne's World. This is a shame on many levels. The hysterical comedy stylings of Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar should always be remembered and Carly and I chose to acknowledge that fact everyday.
Sometimes, it's like we're speaking our own language. We get funny looks, we get the 'what are you two talking about stares', we get the gentle compassionate faces from people in checkout lines at stores who think we might be crazy, but what they don't understand is that we're speaking in "Wayne's World." That's right, based on this killer movie from 1992, that we have probably seen a cumulative 200 times, we can have an entire conversation based in quotes.
For example:
Carly: Where's the tagging gun?
Lauren: I don't even own, a gun! Let alone many guns that would necessitate and entire rack! What am I gonna do... with a GUN RACK?
______
Loan Document Lady: We're going to make sure you have everything together and everything you need for Pink Slip Boutique!
Carly and Lauren: We're not worthy! We're not worthy!
_____
Lauren: Happy Birthday, Carly! Here is your present. Open it!
Carly If it's a severed head I'm going to be very upset
_____
State of Illinois Articles of Incorporation Department: Do you have a lawyer?
Lauren: Yes. Ahm, no. We're between lawyers right now. You see, our first lawyer screwed our affairs so bad.
Carly: That's right. I walked right to that office - that's what I did - and I reached across that desk and I grabbed him by his big fat head and I said "Listen, man. I'm not going to jail for *you* or for anybody."
We could go on for days.
We realize we're dating ourselves with this but we like to pass the film on to younger generations who otherwise might never know the true meaning of 'spew'. NETFLIX IT TODAY!!!
This week Lauren is dancing around to Pull Shapes by The Pipettes.
Things we love about the Pipettes: 1. Their name reminds us of chemistry class 2. They are from England 3. They love polka dots dresses about as much as we do!
Carly's jam of the week is The Strokes - What Ever Happened?
Ok, so I am not sure why this music is queued to the Marie Antoinette movie...but it is all I could find, so deal!
p.s. things that are lame: "Embedding disabled by request" thanks for nothing you tube
