POTD: Karmaloop Hiring Male Models!

Wow Karmaloop, I know we're in a recession and everything, but did you really see this guy and think 'YES! Now that guy is the male model we want to use for the Spring Collection!'? I don't think so. Let's all just be honest here, this guy stumbled into your building for warmth, you threw this RVCA black t-shirt on him, gave him a cup of coffee for his efforts and called it a day. Charming.

POTD: DSQUARED "Hiking" Shoes

Ok, so today I am cheating a little. I honestly couldn't decide which of these shoes was the most absurd/hideous. So today it's up to you: Which shoe is more grotesque? The Dsquared hiking sandal or the Dsquared hiking platform pumps? And I won't even start on how inappropriate the term "hiking" is for both.

POTD: That's some pumpernickel!

The makers of this westphalian pumpernickel bread are proving that sex sells pretty much anything. Makes a great Valentine's Day present!

POTD: Supplied Air Hood

These supplied air hoods remind me of the scene from E.T. where the scientists raid the house, except with now with more moustache! That scene was so terrifying to me as a kid, I wonder if it would hold the same horror for me today? Hmmm...probably.

Image of the Day

My friend Sarah was telling me how she has taken up doing Hot Yoga. Curious to learn more, I googled it and THIS image pops up. This didn't answer any questions, but rather created new ones. Such as 'Is he going for the Jesus crucifix pose?' and 'Why is everyone else in the class just as freaked out as I am?' as well as 'Does he always match his headband to his speedo?'

Take that Ann!

After reading about my friend Kelly's experience with a fabulous velvet blazer, I was more than a bit wary of purchasing a velvet blazer for myself. But then I happened across this little number on sale from $175 to $98 at Ann Taylor's pad. Not only that, but the nice little sales lady was handing out 40% off coupons like candy. I've been wanting a blazer and am a complete sucker for anything involving a bow so this was a pretty easy sell when the saleswoman told me how incredible I looked in it. I liked it so much that I wasn't even deterred when my husband informed me that I looked like a Hobbit in it. Hey for a fantastic deal like this, I can put up with a few hairy feet references.

Let's review shall we?
Originally $175.00
Purchased for $60.40
= Savings of $114.60 or 65%

Hey Ann, now we are even for that blouse I bought at full price, wore to my company's holiday party and then you put on mega sale the next day.

POTD: Coyote Hat

I can't really explain this coyote fur mountain man coyote hat other than than they must've gotten so tired from hunting down and killing the coyote that they just couldn't muster up the energy to finish it. Kudos to this male model though, who is really trying to make it work. In fact, this company puts him to the test with all their products and he gets to show his amazing versatility.
