ArM IS MiSsInG!!! Say What!!!

Hey guys it me again, I bet your all getting tired of reading my blogs, but that’s all good. I’m Sorry to tell you this but, I will have to be making blogs for the END

OF THE SCHOOL YEARS!!! YIKES. I know when I heard about that, I freaked out too. But that’s not the reason I’m writing this blog, the real reason is because I would like to tell and show you a small article I came over when looking around on the internet. It’s about the Retailer Ann Taylor. I was reading that they were trying to retouch some of the models for their magazines, and they accidently took off one of the models LIMBS. SAY WHAT!!! Yea you heard me, they took of the models limb, and it’s not just any limb it was her ARM. That poor poor arm will now be lost in digital world, just looking for its missing body to attach to. It has also been said that Ann Taylor hasn’t done this just ONCE, they have done it multiple times. SAY WHAT! I can’t believe that, they have done this retouching more than once. For the first incidence they got caught with was when they were “retouching” other models waste line. So when they did this, their models look really really skinny, like alien skinny. THAT’S SOME SCARY STUFF!
Well i want to think you for reading (if you read it)Thanks again readers!! :)

Thank you guys! ^_^

Thanks to all the people who took the survey. Sadly, however, Ms. Young decided my topic of "Austin's style" was too broad to write a good feature story about. I'll find a way to somehow integrate all the survey data into my new feature story. :/ SO I now will be able to interview an actual stylist down on 6th street! c8

As for this weeks blog post, I'm here to encourage you all to fill up on avocados! Avocados, as it turns out, have many health benefits such as cancer prevention, heart disease prevention, better eye health, stroke prevention, better nutrient absorbtion, lowers cholesterol, regulates blood pressure, and the list goes on and on!

Studies show that One cup of avocado has about 23% of the Daily Value for folate, a nutrient important for heart health and is shown to significantly lower the icidence of heart disease.Avocado has a rich source of monounsaturated fatty acids including oleic acid, which has recently been shown to offer significant protection against breast cancer. It also is now considered a diet food due to it's newly found weight loss benefits.

SURVEY ALERT. please take it. :3

You all would be a GREAT HELP by taking this survey and telling your friends to take it also. It's about Austin and fashion. Below is the poll. THX <|:B

Fashion Cruelty

How can people kill cute little animals just for their fur? Almost 50 million animals are killed just for fashion. The animals that are being killed are being basically tortured before being killed and they don't even get to experience the freedom of being wild since most of them come from fur farms where they are kept in small filthy cages and give them little food until they are brutally slaughtered. I can't even call this fashion anymore it's just plain cruelty.

2nd blog about a review of a make-up called The Sonia Kashuk Lip Quad in Bronzey Corals and I Are Drugstore BFF’s

Hi guys, its Brittanie again. I thought I would tell you about a review I found on the internet. I know this doesn’t apply to some guys, so guys if you’re reading this, you might as well just close this page right now!!! :). Well in this interview about The Sonia Kashuk Lip Quad in Bronzey Corals found in drug stores, I found out this make-up is very good and last a lot longer than expensive non-lasting make-up. For example the eye liner is only $12.99 and so is the lip balm. I think that’s pretty cheap. I say this because I’ve herd of stores who sell their make-up for over $20.00. Just think about all that money you could be saving. Also the eye shadows are a lot cheaper too. Think about it, some of you ladies could be spending $17.99 on MAC eye shadow, while if you were to spend your money on The Sonia Kashuk Lip Quad in Bronzey Corals, you would only be spending $7.99. LOOK AT ALL THAT MONEY YOU ARE SAVING!!!! Now think about that deal. Look, millions and thousands of dollars that are being saved on make-up that could be put to better use. Now ladies, or girls, since you have read my blog, I’m hoping you can see those deals are out there, and they could be saving you lots of money.
Thank you for reading and I hope this made a difference.
Thank again

SILLY BANDS: Funny or a Replacement for a Bad Pickup-Line?

Hey guys I'm Brittanie, If you want to check out some cool stuff about silly bands, check out this link http://www.wallofstyles.com/2010/09/04/silly-bands-not-just-a-fashion-statement/

I was looking online and I found out that silly bands are a great way to hit on a guy at the same time making a new fashion statement. For example, a man was interviewed, and he said that he went out on a date with a girl and she gave him a silly band. He said that when he received the silly band, he felt important. He also said that when he goes around town people notice his fashionable silly bands. But as things are starting to progress, silly bands are starting to get worse. Silly bands are not only used to make a fashion statement, they are also being used at clubs and bars to make a love connection with somebody. New York Daily News says that “Adults on the prowl are using the colorful bands instead of bad pickup lines to make love connections.” As you can see, silly bands aren’t only used for children to go around showing off; they are also for adult to have personal close connections and attractions with each other. So if you see adults wearing silly bands think to yourself, are they trying to make a love connection with somebody, hit on a guy, or trying to make a new cool looking fashion statement?
Thanks for reading, I hoped you enjoyed

Lady Gaga :O

Who's the man?
Lady Gaga. JKJK but I'm gonna talk about this lady's outrageous different fashion sense.

Everyone sitting in front of their TV watching the Grammies was totes surprised when a group of people came walking down, carrying a large egg on their shoulders. Instead of a ginormous baby, however, Lady Gaga popped out. This just goes to show how CRAZAY loud her fashion statements are.

Out of all singers and actresses, Lady Gaga is one of the most well known, probably due to the items she keeps in her wardrobe. One of the most strange of these items is the famous "meat dress."

Check out this picture of the meat dress:

Not only her clothes, but her hair is done up in a serious do, too.

To top it all off, she finished the outfit with some "outlandish" makeup.

The way she looks is definitely appropriate for the style of music she brings us.

RAH RAH RAH AH AHH. ROMAH, ROMAH MAH, GAGA OH LALA. WANT YO BAD ROMANCE.

Peace, Muffins (Rania >8B)
