Eye See You!

I have bought specs from Zenni Optical before, and I have blogged about them here at 1NetezNet on more than one occasion because I am always surprised and impressed by the wide range of frames they sell and the price they are able to sell them for — you can get eyeglasses for as little as $8, which given the prices these things cost in the big high street stores here in the UK, is pretty amazing.

I was pleased as punch when I logged on back in November and discovered they had a new range of holiday frames, mainly greens, reds and golds…the colours of the season…they also had some really funky ones with flowers on the side and the like. I ended up buying a few pairs for myself because at just $8 a time it’s hard to resist. I wear them all the time, my much more expensive glasses have been relegated to the drawer!

I was just reading an article about Zenni on Examiner.com from back in November and it contains pretty much nothing but praise – it explains how Zenni are able to offer these super cheap eyeglasses but still maintain the highest of quality.

I would definitely buy from them again :)

If I were a rich girl, na na na na na na na na na na naaa

1b_3981I just watched an old episode of The OC, from back when it was good and not the trash it soon turned into. Now I want to rush out and buy louis vuitton replica handbags so I can waltz around looking like a little rich girl as well.

Of course it would have to be a replica one and not a real one, aside from the fact I couldn’t afford a real one even if they were on special offer at 75% off – I wouldn’t want to, I am not a desinger name type of person, I have never seen the point in paying so much just for a name.

If I were an actual rich girl though I am sure I would change my mind about that ;)

 

Hey, it’s…erm…thingy!

Justin--Colin-3I was in Matalan (my favourite clothes shop fyi, yes I am cheap and proud :) ) the other day and noticed the selection of top design furniture from Colin and Justin, I stood there for a while thinking that I was sure I recognised those faces – then I realised it was Colin and Justin off I’m A Celebrity! How funny that I had been watching the show for two weeks but never really questioned who they were or why they were famous.

Well now I know, they are interior designers.

So there.

 

I wonder if they have penis jewelry down there?

vivieenewestwoodpenispendantAm I the only one who sees people covered in piercings and tattoos on reality shows, such as Lydia from Big Brother USA and instantly wonders if they have any of their private bits pierced?

“I wonder if they have Penis Jewelry down there”

It’s the first place my mind goes. I don’t know why

 

Why not recycle them?

davy_jones_costume_adultCostumes that is – people go out and spend a fortune on them each year and with more and more events where people are dressing up either for fun or because they are required to it can seem never ending! Most people also seem to have this idea that an outfit or costume can only be worn once.

So why not find a way to recycle or return them – and by recycle I don’t mean literally, I mean like maybe creat a swap group at your work or in your group of friend – so when you are done with a costume hand it in and select a new one from the others your friends have handed in themselves.

I found a site that has loads of information on holiday costume returns at Costume-returns.com – they let you know exactly what items are returnable and what are not. Mascots for example cannot be returned.

The site also has loads of links to other related sites and I found lots of really cool costume sites from there. With halloween now over I guess it’s time to start thinking about New Years Eve as that’s the next event I would usually dress up in a costume for :)

 

I’m not trying to change him, just make him better ;)

funny-tshirtWhen my fiance and I first started going out he wore offensive t shirts all the time, and when I say all the time I mean all the time. The first time he met my parents he was wearing a mildly offensive one and he wore them to work! Now I don’t mind a good funny/rude t shirt, I own many myself to be honest, but I think there’s a time and a place, right?

Thankfully after 6 and a half years together I have managed to talk him round a little bit, so he only wears them half the time now ;)

 

Project Runway Movie Genre Week

product_9359_112_52_9I just got around to watching last weeks Project Runway, where they had to create a look based on a movie genre. Why were the all so against getting ‘Western’? It was left til last and the two that got it groaned while all the others laughed at them.

Nothing wrong with a big of Cowboy inspired fashion, personally I would have struggled more with the Sci-fi genre.

And who had the last laugh because as it turned out the two Western inspired looks were two of the best, with Christophers coming a close second overall. His outfit made me want to go out and buy Frey Boots from SterlingLeather.com and rock it like his model did down that runway :)

 

Professional web design doesn’t have to cost a fortune!

designs_webI’ve been using free templates for Wordpress for many moons now. I actually used to design all of my own sites, but with so many great free templates out there now it’s easy to get lazy and rely on them — the problem with that of course is that they are not unique, you can browse blogs and probably hit across one that uses your template as well within 15 minutes.

If you are serious about your site, this is not a good thing. A custom template is an absolute must to make you stand out from the crowd. But they don’t come cheap and generally if you pay for Professional Website Design you’ll be paying a small fortune — the guy who did our website at work charged just shy of $500 for something that probably took him an hour.

Cue the recession busting deal currently on offer at ReflectStudios.com, to help promote their new site they are offering a full website that includes the code, design and install for just $99, a much more reasonable price for small businesses or individuals in this current climate. To take up the offer simply visit the site, click on “The Brand” and then “Apply for red label”, enter the special promo code REFLECT09 and fill out the form.

Then sit back and wait for the perfect design to make you stand out from the crowd wing it’s way to you :)
