Love this video of British plus sized actor Lisa Riley & Robin Windsor jiving to ‘Hanky Panky’ on Strictly Come Dancing, and yes I love the dress.

Did you know there is a term for the distance between your socks and your skirt in Japanese fashion?
‘Zettai ryouiki’ is a term for a japanese fashion that translates roughly into ‘Absolute Territory’ or ‘Absolute Region’, which are catchall terms for any exposed legflesh between the tops of your socks and a skirt. Zettai ryouiki are excellent for cosplay, lolita, and just about everything. Even keeping (most) of your legs warm.

I am the Social Media Coordinator for Cool Neon. They created this electroluminescent wire peacock costume for Katy Perry in 2010. I had never seen the video before and I liked it so much that I thought you might enjoy it too.

On CBS News Sunday Morning, a TV show I have been watching as long as I can remember, they did a review of Hats: An Anthology by Stephen Jones, an exhibit at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts. It was amazing and I want to share this hat in particular that Stephen Jones designed for Dior. Each little “paint dab” is made up of 2,000 sequins.
Here is a must see video which was made when the exhibit was in New York:

My friend Catherine Gacad ask me to be a guest blogger on her “Money Monday” series because my husband and I retired early. I worked in the financial industy for 35 years in addition to my husband, Tom Mingle, being a strong influence on my spending habits. It is pretty basic advice. but I wanted to include it in case you were interested. Thanks for the invitation Catherine, I look forward to posting about other financial subjects.

Happiness arises as a result of different causes and conditions. If you harm someone out of anger, you may feel some superficial satisfaction, but deep down you know it was wrong. Your confidence will be undermined. However, if you have an altruistic attitude, you’ll feel comfortable and confident in the presence of others. Dali Lama
