ON & ON...

the beat goes..on & on...

CONGRATS to all the graduates this year - Class of 2008!!
It's amazing to see three different age groups graduating - little Clayton growing up and "promoting" to high school (Class of 2012..sounds weird man), Ellie doing her thang and graduating high school embarking on a new journey, and finally my friends that are taking the big leap towards "real life jobs" post college education. Reality can bite us all in the ass...but you'll be able to look back at all the fun memories and your achievements in order to move on in the future. It is too damn late to be writing something deep so it's time to sleep! Good luck to everyone! Go on & on like the beat goes...

SATURDAY!

Probably THE place to be at this Saturday:Chomp up some Barracuda!

DOUBLE UP!

..and no, not with Kellz.
I'm talking about these Hellz Bellz Double Up shorts I found at Boundless NY. The one summer trend that I truly love is the high-waisted short - it allows you to wear unique, figure shaping shorts without being hoochie/hoodrat/daisy duke/bootylicious status. I'm always on the lookout for the perfect simple pair, as well as a unique pair that can be worn with a plain AA v-neck.
When I saw these from the Hellz Bellz summer delivery collection, I fell in love with the patchwork that's enough to make a statement, but not too overwhelming - just the right amount!I also love the stitching - details make all the difference. Anyway, cop these at Boundless NY or your fave HB retailer!

AND ANOTHER ONE FROM KENDO

Ladieeeesss! Summer time is here and the good folks at Kendo are having another sale.Can't have enough shoes - ever!

SCREWED.

Frantic mode .

Post hiatus for about 15 hours.

SCARLETT LOVE.

I found these amazing pictures - and I fell in love again.Aside from her breath-taking roles and hotness, she's got a debut album for about a month now: Anywhere I Lay My Head.
Scarlett Johansson's inspired Atco Records debut album ANYWHERE I LAY MY HEAD features her distinctive interpretations of ten songs by Tom Waits plus one original selection, "Song For Jo." Johansson co-wrote the track with TV On The Radio's David Andrew Sitek, who produced the album and lends his multi-instrumental talents throughout as well. She is also joined by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist Nick Zinner, Sean Antanaitis from Celebration and others.
She's got talent...and awesome LIPS! Love her!

NO SUBSTITUTE LOVER - ESTELLE

Estelle's got the jams - and the rhymes (Brit style). Check out all the cameo's - LOL @ Christian!

TESUCHER CHOCOLATES.

As I mentioned yesterday, I stopped by Teuscher to visit my favorite salesperson, Jacqueline to order some treats for my grandpa. Located on 9548 Brighton Way (and Camden) this is what you need to look for, the red sign calling out your name to chocolate heaven:The interior is a whimsical chocoholic fairytale - facing the cafe (fresh coffee and espresso at your service):
Chocolate wonderland.
Sorry about the blur, I was there for a really long time and I was in a rush. I think they got fed up and coerced me to leave with a free chocolate sample.
This is Jacqueline! She speaks chocolate-ese well - she's got the answer for your chocolate needs. As a plus, she knows Japanese!! Ask for her on your trip over.
Make sure you try to their famous champagne truffles! It's a bite of bliss.
