• Someone actually outsmarted The Price Is Right! Terry Kneiss, a former weatherman bid the EXACT PRICE for his Showcase and won over $50,000.00 in prizes.

• I love this Madonna-inspired photoshoot by Ellen Von Unwerth.

• Writing about fashion is harder than it seems. Last year’s hot words are suddenly passé. Let Garance Doré explain.

• Verhext has been graciously doing a show and tell of her recent European travels, mainly centered in France. She lists shops, the paths she took and really helpful details that would come in handy for a first time traveler. Read them all!

She is Herself explains what it feels like to be judgmental and why it isn’t doing anyone (including yourself) any favors.

Showcase of Sweet Chocolate Websites is actually chock full of great design, I swear! I am glad that someone picked up on this trend — I’ve been a huge fan of the Charles Chocolates website for years.

• A case of the dreaded Big Brother, perhaps? Rupert Murdoch sees all and notices if you are wearing shorts to work. Creepy!

• Michael Zinman collects signs made by the homeless. What do you think about this?

• Oh my god, this cottage actually exists! Straight out of a fairytale, don’t you think?

    Thanks, Nubs! I haven’t put up my absolute favorite day yet, the If You Have One Day In Paris You Must Do This Day day, so keep checking back!

    Have you been? It was interesting how much my ideas didn’t sync with the reality – I had no idea Paris was so crowded!

    Verhext: That’s what I find so refreshing and interesting about your posts — that the reality was different than you imagined. I think that happens often to all of us because we build up and fantasize so much about a place but when we get there, the reality sinks in. Dirt, people, expense, etc.
