Mod Emo Star Halter Top 2007-03-31 20:30:47
Her Side: Have I mentioned that Green is a great color? and I love the little pocket! Everything about this shirt is perfect… the neckline, the exposed back, the awesome pattern.. well you get the point. You can layer this on top of long tunic style racerback tanks for a unique look. Enjoy!
His Side: Think of all the good times you can have trying to put stuff in that little pocket. Saying that was even worth the karate kick to the shin she just gave me. Oh…because I had no idea, follow these links to learn what mod and emo mean.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3
His Verdict: 3 tiny pockets of fun

An Apple A Day… 2007-03-31 17:10:57
Her Side:Okay, usually I’m not into things that scream uber girly.. but I think this skirt may have made me a believer in girly yet still spunky designs (note the wiggly worms =D ). These skirts are handmade by a designer named Hannah for $68.00
My Outfit Idea: a cute cardigan over a lacey tank, some wedge heels or Converses, and some pearls for the fancy girls&hellip
;or a skull-bones broach for the spunkier girls. Think 1950’s but more modern… and less smile till it hurts.
His Side: This skirt is 100% cotton with a grosgrain ribbon. Its 21” long…so here’s hopin’ for some Marylin Monroe style action .
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3 - you get quality with handmade things… doesn’t mean I can always afford quality. *sigh* Read more:Apple
Bad Table…BAD! 2007-04-02 14:00:06
Her Side: What can i say&hellip
; i mean look at it.. genius. BUT as we all know… ingenuity comes at a price.. this sucker tops around $2000 from Cool Kids. yap thats what i said… pretty expensive table for a kid. Unless your kid is a 25 y.o bf.
His Side: HAHAHAHHAHAHA. HAHAHAHAHHA. HAHAHA. HA. Good times…good times. No material descriptions…drop them a line to ask. Its made for kids though, so its gotta be pretty sturdy. We read about this first at Rare Bird Finds to give credit where credit is due.
Her Verdict: Well.. I “tabled” myself when I saw it… and then I pooped myself when I saw the price. <3 <3
His Verdict: Food or table..food or table…damn my poor med student bank account.

Angel On A Wire 2007-04-01 18:30:22
Her Side: Who wants a prissy guardian angel? “OOO OO me me.. right here.” Just Kidding. This is a screen print tshirt that comes in styles for boys or girls. This angel looks like he means business… now that’s the kind of protection I need! $20 from StrongLikeBull.
His Side: This is one of the few times I have ever looked at a girls shirt and thought: AWESOME. Cotton t-shirt is a cotton t-shirt, only the design makes a difference these days…”the cut too!”, says the gf.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3
His Verdict: 4 guardian angels of vengence!
Tabletize your boring old notebook 2007-04-04 04:10:14
Her Side: wooooooooooooooo. SHINY. I’ve always wanted a tablet PC. HA! Take that Fujistu with your expensive tabletness. I win. Oh yea this is cool bc it comes in two types.. one that you can connect to your PC laptop and one that you can set on your table so that its like a palette type pen/art edit tablet.. but minus the tablet part.
His Side: This…is….AWESOME. NAVIisis‘ idea of turning a normal laptop into a tablet PC is GENIUS! This works in a similar way to the laser virtual keyboard we featured a while ago: lasers and infrared to interpret your motions into a digital signal that appears in your favorite drawing program. The ‘brush’ type and ‘ink density’ of you writing/drawing is easily modified with this setup for those artists out there.
The only draw backs I can see are one: this is only compatible with Windows Vista currently…not the best for all those digital artists out there that are apple fans; and I am kind Read more:boring
Green Thumb Extravaganza! 2007-04-03 13:00:35
29.95
Her Side: this is the perfect way to grow beautiful roses for the brown thumb in all of us. I say brown thumb.. bc i can’t harvest or cultivate for diddly… everything dies! eh.. what can you do. But actually these are string lights that look like beautiful rosies… you can bunch them up and have a glowing bouquet or string them out for a romantic mood.
His Side: These lights are pretty cool. They are made from leaves of the pipal tree, (or Bodhi tree…it has a lot of names apparently) with 6 leaves per light. This is the tree that Buddha himself sat under while he was training to become…well…Buddha.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3
His Verdict: they’re cheap, look cool, and have an awesome story you can tell your friends while you sit under them.
Her Side: NOW THIS… THIS is funny bc 1. I’ve never grown a tree.. 2. BF over there hearts trees. He’s like Paul Bunyon minus the blue ox. uhh.. but for 8 bux.. you can help Read more:Green

Earrings as Ornaments????? 2007-04-05 14:00:33
Her Side: So i thought it would be nice to post this…. since i’m always trying to convince you that earrings are must have accessories. Now instead of big lump o’ earrings.. you can display them as works of art… which is why you bought them in the first place .. right? Don’t like these? Well then choose from the others at Wrapables.
The left one / tree is: $39.95
The one on the right: $ 27.99(SALE)
His Side: I….really don’t have much to say about these two things. The earring stand on the left mimics the Chinese pagoda tree and they are both made of metal.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3
His Verdict: this is a “whatever makes her happy” item. Read more:Earrings

Lace Duct Tape 2007-04-04 22:00:50
Her Side: Thats right people. Lace tape. Move your stuff in style or really leave an impression when giving a gift. Make your own hip indie stuff and ship stuff out - well seal the deal closed with this tape! I promise that customers will come back for more! The above tapes are from two different designers… hence the two different lace designs…. but both come in the classic lace colors: black or white.. and both are only $10 per giant roll (the size of packing tape.) Click which ever pattern you like best above to link directly to the store.
His Side: Honestly, the only thing that suprises me about this is that I haven’t seen it before. Available from MATTER and Oboiler…both cool design stores.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Her Verdict: Its a cool idea even if its a bit girly. <dodges kick to shin>
Dont-cha wish your Secretary was HOT like me? Dont-cha? 2007-04-04 18:00:44
Her Side: overt prostitute sexy was SO last year. This year its all about the sophisticated woman of power. JUUUUUUST enough coverage to really make you wonder… i wonder what goodies lie beneath? haha. Well I also love this dress by Nikka because it really does look classy and clean~ and check out those FANTASTIC SLEEVES!? Layer it on top of a tight fitting black lace cami for a little less cleavage.
Added Plus!: This dress is on CLEARANCE! Yes it was originally $228, but now is only $129.99…
WHAT YOU SAY? you want a BETTER DEAL?! OK! Use the faaaaabulous coupon (I try to find you amazing deals online and then post them for your shopping convenience… you can thank me later) I posted a few days ago. But in case you’re too lazy to scroll… bc I would be.. here it is again:

Angel On A Wire - UPDATE 2007-04-06 21:34:22 UPDATE: We just got a comment from the designer of this shirt, Derek, from StrongLikeBull - the proceeds from all sales of this shirt go towards the medical bills of Derek’s father who is battling cancer. If you love the shirt like we did, you have a chance to look great and help a worthy cause at the same time! Click the pictures below to purchase!

Who needs to go outdoors? 2007-04-06 20:30:43 Her Side: It’s hard to bring nature into your home without it looking like the gardening department at Home Depot. … or CAN YOU?! Yes you can… for $4465 you can have a plush carpet of LEAVES! yes each leaf is cut to mimic the real thing on trees but have the softness of wool and felt. Talk about luxury.
$4465.00
what?! you don’t HAVE $4465 dollars just lying around?
Well .. then .. meet FredFlare.. who is bringing you something kinda similar for $24. Yes .. its green it has daisies and it reminds of spring time frolicking. But you might have to pass on the rolling around on it, since its welcome mat sized and made of similar materials. But it sure is CUTE!
His Side: We saw the first carpet on freshome.com …designer and 100%wool, its wicked cool. But the price tag is so outrageous thats all I’m gonna say about it. The second one is a welcome mat from the girlfriend’s perennial favorite: fredflare.com.

Urban Bargains 2007-04-06 13:47:18
Her Side: this is a FABULOUS warm season 3/4 sleeve henley. It’s SO lightweight, and pattern is this fantastic japanese fan with a wisp of leaves blowing past it. Wear it alone or over a light cami with some jeans. Fantastic … and of course… being the bargain hunter that i am… ONLY $9.99 from Urban
outfitters.com
His Side: well done, bargain hunter girlfriend, well done.
Her Verdict: <3<3<3<3<3
His Verdict: Can’t argue with 9.99. Or a tight, tight shirt.
P.S: As a student… I’m always in air conditioned rooms.. brrrrrr… so actually I love the fact that I can pick up winter season sales like this henley which is actually pretty light weight. Perfect for layering.. and those long, cold, lonely study sessions in the frigid library.
This one comes in three fabulous patterns, but personally I <3 the blue one! and still only $9.99
Myolee: Ella 2007-04-05 21:47:56
Her Side: This is a handmade indie shirt that I found on a website that tries to showcase the best of unique design. I really heart the flowing lines of this tank, and the added detail to the plus the plunging “back line” is so sheik. (I’m so sure I spelled that wrong, but spell check is giving me the a-ok!). I think it only comes in this color, but black is always a must in any wardrobe.
His Side: Will someone PLEASE explain to me why you would turn a perfectly good plunging neckline around to the back? please? This is limited edition from designer Myolee…one size of small/medium, and is a wool-synthetic blend. $100.
Her Verdict: <3<3…med student budget makes this a luxury. Myolee features some great designs though!
His Verdict: ditto that.
Look out IKEA! 2007-04-05 18:09:55
Her Side: This is not your typical ikea paper latern. This faux linen shade is actually made of copper wire and ceramic and designed by Lucy Brown. It’s really those unique punches of light through those holes that are really eye catching! She’s selling them ONLY through Rockett St George, which is this fantastic Euro site, which lucky for us, ships internationally.
Price: $68.80
His Side: Designed by Lucy Brown…she does a lot of work in ceramics and mixed media with ceramics. This lamp shade is ceramic with copper wire throughout and is available only from Rockett St George - along with the rest of her line.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3
His Verdict: Cool concept, not too shabby on the price side. Might be a bit dim if you enjoy a well-lit room.
Sakura lights 2007-04-07 21:30:03
Her Side: Sadly these are made by company Graham and Green… who is in the UK… that means international shipping. But its totally worth it for these wonderful Cherry Blossom Branch lights. Think about mixing the pink and red.. and bunching them together in a vase.. or arrange them on your wall to look like a beautiful Japanese cherry blossom tree to lull you into beautiful dreams. Thumbs up Graham and Green.
His Side: There are few blooming trees as famous as the Japanese Cherry Tree and its blossoms (Sakura
means Cherry Blossom in Japanese). These lights come with 35blooms per stalk…if ordering outside the UK, remember that you are probably going to have to change the plugs and check the voltage requirements.
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3 <3 - 16 pounds roughly converts to 30 US per stalk… its kinda a steep price .. and you have to think about the international shipping… unless your going to visit the UK or live in the UK…. then i retrac

Sakura Part Deux 2007-04-09 14:21:29
Her Side: This is a great cotton shower curtain - just line it with a cheap plastic curtain, and you have a mold free - bold statement in your bathroom. I found this at Anthropologie.com It’s my favorite store - which I can only love from afar bc i’m just that poor. But fortunately.. as is almost everything that I post.. this is on SALE. haha $78 –> $30
His Side: This is a great store - if you have the money for it. My wallet cried when she showed me most of the site…and then she showed me this, which is not so bad. I think she did that on purpose - scare tactics: “ohhhhhh, look at this 300 dollar dress…now look at this 30 dollar shower curtain”. She tried that with a pair of 200 dollar shoes too. She was trumped by my poverty though…MUAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3 - i have shower doors.. therefore no need for curtains…but maybe i could use it as a room divider or wall decor. the possibilities are end Read more:Sakura

Her Side: Sometimes.. you just need a cup of tea&hellip
; and a beautiful view. Well no need to drive into the wilderness and brave bears and wild moose..and the occasional bombadier mosquito. Now you can just enjoy the scenery on your cup! This cup and saucer set is fantastic - trees, and birds … oh my! The saucer is reflective… thanks to its plantinum plating… for double your nature enjoyment. $21
For UK visitors: you can get this set locally shipped to you by Rockett St George for $21US/$11UK dollars - lol.
For US visitors: you can get this set locally shipped to you by Jamaica Blue Mt Traders for $19.99US
~*~*~*~*~*~ For the Guys:
YA YA… i know… you could care less about trees and nature…. that’s why i’m providing you this “bang bang shoot em up” cup. The trigger is platinum plated so all your co workers will know that you’re a mild mannered paper jockey by day… but a bad-@ss cowboy at night. Ladi Read more:Caffeine

His Side: Kyo is a user of acryllics in her designs - and everything she does is hand sawed and hand dyed. Sterling silver studs.

Her Side: bare with me on the title of this article. This is a great 3 in 1 design…:
1. radiator : thats right! it makes your home all toasty and warm.. without the giant eye sore of a radiator that old farty homes come with –> HOT
2. Mirror: The glassy finish gives you a modern art piece of a mirror …. posh artpiece… great reflection of yourself –> HOT
3. LED clock: besides checking yourself… check out the time while your standing there gazing at your awesome-ness bc you purchased something this fantastic! –> TIME

You can thank me later on showing you the light =D
His Side: We saw this at Gizmodo. If you can read French, here is the product’s main page . Other than what the gf said, I can’t offer much insight…my 7th grade Fr
Shavings Shavings EVERYWHERE! 2007-04-10 18:09:28
Her Side: *color…color… sharpen … dump in trash* repeat x 100. THE DAYS OF SLAVERY TO THE PENCIL SHARPENER ARE OVER, ARTISTS! It sure took them long enough, but Satinbox has found a company that keeps the old timey feeling of using a wooden colored pencil but paired it up with the simplicity and ease of mechanical pencils. This set of six colors also comes with refills of the fanciful colored leads. Coloring books for everyone!
His Side: The plus side of these is that at least she can’t draw on ME with them…can she?! But seriously, these are a long time coming…what were you doing all this time, pencil industry?
Her Verdict: <3 <3 <3 - more colors please!
His Verdict: ditto
Posh Caves 2007-04-10 14:11:26
Her Side: Well as I was reading my daily 30+ resources to keep you guys informed of the newest and coolest gadgets.. I came across this “Cave” in Gizmodo . This fabulous idea came from ingenious designer Sakura Adachi . This Cave serves as a comfy well lit (thats right it comes with its own light), reading area… which also serves as a great room partition. YOU KNOW you will be crawling through that hole to get the other side of the room.. JUST for the novelty of it. It’s like educational.. Chuck E Cheese’s!
Sadly though, this great idea comes at 8,000 Euro… I don’t know what that is in US.. but I don’t think i wanna know!
For you Animal Lovers out there: Sakura Adachi also designs a smaller bookshelf for pets
His Side: Where was this when I was a kid? Seriously…my bookworm days as a kid would have been wayyyyyy cooler with one of these bad boys. (in a nerdy way…the gf says “relatively coole Read more:Caves
Floating Electrocution..$229.00 2007-04-12 22:12:28
Her Side: I saw this new fangled gadget by JVC a few weeks back in a gadget blog and fell in love. BUT… as usual.. with all my Japanese gadget infatuations.. it was only available in Japan. But today I was looking through my favorite Asian Gadget Store: AudioCubes and saw that they carried this… *squeel!* But alas… it is $229.00
What is it? Well its a floating mp3 player.. completely water proof.. and can be used in a bathtub, or pool… and even comes with a stand so you can use it on non liquidy surfaces.. such as a counter top or next to your bed. It also emits a cool blue glow so that your bathtub glows a calming blue while you soak those troubles away!
