I love clothes. I love fashion. I love reading fashion blogs. "What I Wore Today" is one of my favorites; I just adore the way Kasmira presents herself; a combination of innate personality, the way she puts herself together, and the attention to detail she puts into her outfits and posts. This entry is a prime example. I hope you also enjoy it!

If you follow the link, you'll read things like "And at nearly 500g a week, we eat twice as much sugar as we used to. We also consume more processed and junk food. One of the problems is that these often rely on corn syrup as a flavouring and cheap preservative. And, as nutritionist Katherine Zeratsky explains, when we metabolise this form of sugar, it doesn't trigger the production of hormones that help regulate appetite and fat storage."

I could have written "Everything that Karen O is, is everything that I aspire to be. She's fierce, fun, raw, eccentric, playful, beautiful... For me, she is the epitome of a female rock star." BUT THE COOL THING IS "Karen O for composing music for the soundtrack to 'Where the Wild Things Are'! Called 'Karen O and the Kids' the rockers in the band consist of her Yeah Yeah Yeah companions Brian Chase and Nick Zinner along with Dean Fertita (Queens of the Stone Age, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs), and many more crazy talented rockers. They also have an untrained children's choir contributing to the songs and soundscapes." The post has an imbedded YouTube video of the first single. :)

Shira, some of what Byrne says in this article reminded me of the comment conversation in your journal regarding the Bust magazine insurance "rape" twitter...

"The poisons cause the little dogs to slowly bleed to death, thus weakening them and making it easier for other animals to catch them and eat them... since the drugs can linger in the prairie dog's body or carcass for weeks, anything that comes along and eats them also gets the poison in their body. In this case, threatened and endangered species are inadvertently harmed. Black-footed ferrets... Swift foxes, golden and bald eagles, American badgers, and ferruginous hawks are also all at risk."

Quote from the article: "Perhaps in the back of our minds we already understand, without all the science, that something terribly wrong is happening. We know that it cannot possibly be healthy to raise such grotesque animals in such grossly unnatural conditions. We know that if someone offers to show us a film on how our meat is produced, it will be a horror film."
