Hump Day & Chill

Kylie Jenner

"What Are We Talking About?" is a meme I spied online made from one of Kylie Jenner's photos for her current chat with Jennifer Lawrence in Interview Magazine. While I'm not quite sure why the meme was made we are going to Hump Day & Chill to it because I said so.

Here's the why: many times when we converse, especially in groups, conversation can, and usually gets lost in translation. Inevitably at some point someone is left wondering "What Are We Talking About?" 

So this is a Hump Day & Chill dedicated to those moments that we all have, and a reminder that it's OK to get lost in a piled on discussion amongst friends, family, whatever, etc...

The next time you are feeling confused don't be afraid to say it loud, say it proud and well simply, say it, say it!

Hump Day & Chill Minions and be sure to do it by uttering the phrase "What Are We Talking About?" at least once today, you know you will feel the need to.

In 24 More Days...

Channeling Elsa...
Kylie Jenner

What's the fun of Spooky Season if we can't have a Halloween Countdown flown in on a broom occasionally for good measure? I ask you? I'm waiting as usual...

Say what you will, or won't, or better yet say nothing at all about Kylie Jenner seen here as The Bride of Frankenstein. 

For those of you not in the know the Bride of Frankenstein is a 1935 film starring Elsa Lanchester as, well, The Bride. I saw it for the first time a few years ago, there is a reason it's considered a classic of cinema, it's terrific! Highly recommended for any lover of horror out there.

Kylie's homage as a sexier version of The Bride to me is dead on (no pun intended, or perhaps it was) - So with only 24 more days left, join Kylie and myself as we get in the spirit of the season.

It's the most wonderful time of the year after all...Boo!

Hump Day & Chill

Kylie Jenner

While I have a mere passing interest in fashion, I do loosely keep tabs on certain designers that catch my eye. One of them is Jean Paul Gaultier, hey I like the really creative type of fashion, that's the way it goes.

Much to my shock & awe he has teamed up with Kylie Jenner of all people for his latest campaign.

Reading this sounds lunatic, but it turns out as you can see above amazingly inspired! A match made in fashion heaven where everything is half off.

Thus we are gonna Hump Day & Chill to this dynamic and inspired duo. Whoever thought of this deserves a really good paycheck.

Paging Kris Jenner...

Monday Motivation

Insecurity Vanquished
l-r
Stassie Karanikolaou & Kylie Jenner

Sometimes motivation, especially on a Monday takes on strange bedfellows. While I am not a Kardashian fan, I couldn't help but notice this image of Kylie Jenner and her BFF Stassie Karanikolaou on the WWW - why you may ask? Because Jenner finally got rid of the hideous lip filler she has been using for a spell and looks great!

Those lips made her look like something from the X-Men movie series I tell you what. Now she is back to looking like her attractive normal self.

She cops to her lips being an insecurity of hers, thus the filler. I say hats off to her for overcoming that insecurity and realizing she is better off, and more attractive without the plump.

Like I said Monday Motivation can take on many different forms and entities. Today's sermon is let go of things that no longer serve you. Your insecurities are just that - something that makes you do things that really don't work.

Thanks Kylie!

Ever get the abovementioned feeling?! I sure have, but in the words of Barbara Streisand & Donna Summer "Enough is Enough!" BTW abovementioned is a legal term for those of you who think I pulled that out of someone's ass. "Yes" I am on the prowl and quite dangerous, deal with it!!!

Considering the state of the world we live in, I find this quote from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland quite appropo.

I Get My Kicks Below The Waistline, Sunshine

"I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine" - Murray Head, One Night in Bangkok 

The 80's hit One Night in Bangkok came to mind this week, Thus I juxtaposed the lyrics to caption my photo and then presented the actual ones.

Why? Well because the sentiments are two contrasting extremes and life is about balance. Like everyone some of my kicks are mental while others are physical. 

But when mental and physical connect it's spectacular. In case you were wondering if that's something I have, why "yes" it is. If your happy and you know it clap your hands!

It's so bizarre, the floating chicken...

"I wish I was like you...Easily amused" - All Apologies, Nirvana 

It takes a lot to amuse me in the world of entertainment. In life not so much there are so many amusing and amazing people, places & things to engage in the world around us. While I am not one of those overly perky people I am certainly not a pessimist either. I would clarify myself as a realist. 

Life is a series of moments and how you experience them is up to you....time to throw me in the shallow water before I get too deep!

Let's all put on a folk hat and learn something about a foreign culture

Khloe Kardashian & Kylie Jenner are both pregnant. Smells like ratings spirit

Did you know you can purchase Vampire Repellent from Gwyneth Paltrow's life style brand Goop? It's supposed to ward off "Emotional Vampires" - I can save you $100, cut them out of your life. Yeah, it's that simple.

Fashion! Turn To The Left!

We Are The Goon Squad
l-r Tyga, Kylie Jenner & Madonna

Fashion! Turn to the right! We are the goon squad and we're coming to town beep-beep!

When David Bowie sang the iconic song Fashion and mused about the mythical "goon squad" I am sure the threesome of  Tyga, Kylie Jenner & Madonna at the Philipp Plein Fall/Winter 2017 show, was what he had in mind, think about it, no too hard though.

Nothing other than New York Fashion Week could bring such strange bed fellows together in the name of couture. 

The million dollar question of the day? Did the three actually engage in polite salutations and a photo-op, or did they actually have and interesting exchange of sound bites? If utterances did occur what could have possibly been said? I'd love to know, wouldn't you?

Whatever went down here is the "goon squad" to get you over the proverbial hump. Ciao!

Don't Let The Door Hit You On The Way Out 2015!

Don't Be Grumpy, 2015 Is Almost Over!!!

While 2015 was far from the worst year I have ever had, there was plenty of room for improvement. It was mainly a year of transition where nothing really happened, but the changes, forced or not, on people's lives that were preparing them for an amazing 2016!!!

2015 also was a pretty boring year overall as well, and I will always remember it as the year ignorance raged on like a bonfire. 

So to kiss this year off I have compiled a list of some positive headlines from it. Ya know to show 2015 a little gratitude for having successfully survived it.

Selfie Sunday - "Two K's and a C"

We Are Family
Kim, Kris & Caitlyn

So this actually happened. On August 7th Caitlyn and Kris Jenner came together to celebrate daughter Kylie's 18th Birthday.

Of course Kim Kardashian-West was there as well, and did what she does best...took a selfie of all three of them.

She captioned the photo "The Parent Trap" I personally would have captioned it "Two K's and a C" that way they would sound like a hip new band.

Where did Kim post the shot? On Twitter of course!

Have a Super Selfie Sunday Peeps!
