It Overtakes Me {22 Aug 10}

I’m still making my way through Gala Darling‘s past posts, so some of these might seem repetitive if you’ve been following her for a while, but I’ve added my own in there, too. 🙂 Here are some treasures I found this week.

I don’t understand a word this blog says, but the pictures and videos make me happy.

Suffering From Shopping Shame is a fanTAStic article from Stylish Thought. This “condition” does actually have name after shopping. It’s called Cognitive Dissonance, which is pretty much the guilt you feel after shopping, but she’s talking about before you even spend the money. The article is very well written. Her blog is adorable, too. *Subscribe*

This dress on Jak and Jil … *gasp.* This is one of my favorite blogs. The shots he takes are amazing!

These pictures of New York in the 70’s are super fascinating. The first ones don’t work. Scroll down and they’ll start working.

What’s Your “Plan Z”? is a great article. It’s such a great attack method. Especially for those of us that would like to start our own business. Love this!

I’m Under Arrest for What? 50 Bizzare U.S. Laws ~ I always love these. … Really, Idaho?

Kim Joon’s Naked Body Art ~ I agree with the rest of the title. It’s probably NSFW, but definitely amazing.

On Private Sales, Gambling and Dangers of Innovation ~ Sorority Life, Farmville, Mobsters, Cafe World and any other Facebook game fans, take note!

Le Bardot ~ Look at this shop I found! The store was featured on Sense of Fashion on Friday. This dress can be worn 5 different ways! Look at this picture. … Those 3 looks are the same dress! I can totally see myself wearing the one on the right. How would you wear it?

*Sings* I fly like paper, get high like planes… Paper plane art installation. Love. ❤

The Celebratory 2010 FIFA World Cup T-Shirt is pretty well done. 🙂

Where can I fly for how much? Just type in your city and see how much it costs to fly … wherever you want. I’ve put in Houston because that’s where I would fly from. You put in your city.

Videos:

The video in this article about the moving rocks in Death Valley is really interesting!

The video in this post is insane. (Of course, the Dean Martin song at the beginning made me love it that much more!) Talk about advertising overload. Watch out for the language.


I loved 500 Days of Summer.
This is how it would look as a thriller.

FanTASTIC commercial!
I just saw it on TV and had to share!

Go to 2:26 ... It came on the one the other day.
Such a great show!

My mom and I used to watch Home Improvement together. Those were good times. 🙂


LOVE this video!
Even though it has nothing to do with the song.
If only I had the money:
