H&M Store: hm.com

I don’t know about you, but I am waiting very patiently for H&M to grace us with some online shopping action.

I am the reigning queen of online shopping, at least in my household, so H&M is a brand I’ve been salivating for to hit cyberspace for quite some time.

While I wait though, I can let you in on the fact that at least now Latin America is getting their first taste of the brand.

I guess I shouldn’t be so greedy! more…

By: Alexandra Campuzano, guest blogger

For the past few months I’ve been adjusting to life in a new city.

Anyone who has made a change from a city they consider home to a city that is virtually the opposite of home will understand the transition is tougher than anyone might have warned you about.

Prior to the big move, friends who had made similar transitions tossed bouquets of advice my way.

“Don’t forget to keep a weekly and monthly budget”, “Make sure your place has a night guard”, “Have a few months of rent and utilities in your savings account, you know, just in case”,”Don’t be afraid to live off Cup-o-noodle—it’s a perfectly decent meal.” more…

jp SKITTLES articleLarge Skittles: Taste the Colour of a PR Crisis

David Goldman | Associated Press

For the past few weeks I’ve been watching an atypical type of public relations crisis unravel — that of Skittles.

Skittles, you know, the taste the rainbow, fruity, sugary hard candy you chomped on endlessly until you hit university and gained the Freshmen 15.

Yes, that Skittles.

Why, you say?

Because of Trayvon Martin: the 17-year old teen who was carrying only a packet of Skittles and a drink when he was shot and killed on February 26, 2012 in Sanford, Florida by George Zimmerman.

The strangest part of the aftermath from the Trayvon Martin shooting is Skittles are flying off the shelves. more…

HungerGames Sasha edit Hunger Games Mixology: DISTRICT 7,8,9,10,11 and 12 Cocktails

By: Ashley Bryce, Liana Cole and Sasha Muradali

Each year the Hunger Games are held inside the Capitol, in the county of Panem.

Panem rose out of the rubble that once was North America and had thirteen districts that surround it, each having a unique purpose. Tired of servitude, the thirteen districts of Panem rebelled against the Capitol and the nation turned into a battle ground.

In the end, the Capitol held down the resistance and District 13, known of its nuclear power, was destroyed in a disaster.

The twelve remaining districts signed the Treaty of Treason and the Hunger Games were born as a punishment for the costly rebellion.

Each year the districts have to sacrifice one girl and one boy, known as tributes, to the games. These tributes engage in a battle to the death with
one survivor.

The victor who goes back to his or her district with fame and fortune.

In recognition of these yearly games, we present drinks for the remaining 6 districts of Panem.

Happy

Hunger Games!

 The Badoo Project (#BadooProject)

“NYC was an easy choice as the place to first introduce Badoo to the U.S. It’s young, diverse, and social–a lot like Badoo!”

It’s no surprise we love Badoo.

 The Badoo Project (#BadooProject)

We’ve been writing about them for quite sometime now and thereby, it still should not be a surprise that when heard about The Badoo Project, we took our happy little selves to SoHo for an evening to hang out with our favourites from Londontown.

 {Beautirati} Butter London: Disco Biscuit [Swatches + Pics]

Hello Spring! and Hello Summer!

This is “Disco Biscuit,” part of Butter London’s SS12 line of polishes, and it makes me want to say “Disco my biscuit.”

Don’t ask me why, but if I were Cher, and this was “Clueless,” I kind of feel like that would be something that would slip off of my tongue with ease.

… Melissa McCarthy can get a Supporting Actress nomination for playing an obnoxious, disgusting, cringe-worthy piece of trash (yes, I said it! and no I’m not taking it back) named Megan Price in Bridesmaids, BUT Alan Rickman (aka international acting royalty) cannot get a nod for his role as Severus Snape, a character who has officially taken its regal place in literary history as a contemporary Byronic and tragic hero like Heathcliff, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II. more…

Facebook%25201 Facebook IPO: Is a $100 Billion Valuation Cool?

One of the most anticipated events in .com history is finally upon us: Facebook has filed for its Initial Public Offering (IPO) and everybody is speculating about how high the company’s valuation will go.

We asked a couple of experts to shed some light on the matter: Professor Mark T. Leary, of Olin Business School, believes that at IPO the firm will have a total market value in the $80 – $100 billion range:

“I don’t doubt that investors will be willing to pay that price for the shares, based on the valuations coming out of their past private issuances and recent online auctions for private shares,” he says.

But just because people are willing to pay that price, does it actually mean that Facebook is worth that much? more…
