Keeping a Promise

I promised myself I would try to post everyday. I just got home from surgery yesterday. I guess I had a chronic infection in my typorum bone? Who knew? So here is my oh so short post in my medicated up phase.

Since I have been to the hospital recently I have started to pay more attention to medical facts (especially since I am an obsessive fan of House, I know Hugh is amazing). And If I have learned anyone thing that is most important, it's that you ALWAYS have to voice your opinion on how you should be treated. Especially if that treatment has to do with pain medicine, that way you dont end up like little ole' me in constant pain.


For Your Consideration,

All new name, All new post

So lets state the obvious, I changed the blogs name. Do you guys like it? I always appreciate your opinions. I had some kind of crazy/insane andy warhol esque inspirational moment where I just wanted to make things. So..... I decided to personalize my vans hi-tops. Also awhile back a friend of mine taught me how to make some really cool space scenes, so i made one with spray paint.
And finally, sorry for my utter laziness, I actually have some photos of my little creative endeavors.

What do you think?

I thought I had an obligation to try to do atleast one post a day so... this is my way of doing so. I have a couple favors, to be blunt I need your opinions.
Heres the questions (and please answer the questions, and be honest).

-Do you guys like the name of the blog. Or do you prefer just "The Prodigy"

-Also, would you guys like if I posted some more pictures of my own life, i.e. some outfits and mumbo jumbo like that.

Sorry to put you on the spot, but I'd really ppreciate it (:

and to make you guys smile, I thought I'd throw in my favorite superbowl videos *commercials. Since it is Superbowl Sunday. Here you go:

I thought it was utterly hilarious.

Have a great night,
Domino

Phoebe RETURNS

Ok let me make this clear, I like Hannah McGibbon but seriously who was better @ Chloe than Phoebe? Now that shes at Celine she is going to do great. I feel her debut collection was magnificent. so I figured I'd go through some of my favortie looks.


Three words Elegant, Detailed, and
Sophisticated. Seems like she was going for a look to be weared at the office or at a Dinner. That trend of dressing more business esque at events is still standing strong.


The detail and tailoring that went into this coat is flipping amazing. Its so geometric yet modern and has like a battle armor feel.


First let's talk about the top, I mean come on? Leather is really coming back and the construction of this top is exquisite (fancy word choice... hope I spelt it right). And the skirt; Phoebe did a lot of these German beer girl type skirts *subtract the over the topness, which are very tailored and cropped to perfection.

In all, the entire collection focused a lot on construction and tailoring it seemed. The colors were pretty neutral (black, white, camel, and khaki)and it seemed very successful. Everyone loves you Phoebe (like shes totally going to read this) and I have a feeling your going to be seeing a lot of Ms. Phoebe Philo.

Rain Rain Go Away

Soooo another gloomy day in socal. Therefore it is chai tea and Lost marathons on hulu for me.(yay for rhymming!) I thoguht I'd do some collaging today, cause im the total artsy type.

Vampire Weekend's Contra

So i decided on too posts a day. Two posts in a day, how exciting! I know im so kind.
but i am in love with this CD. It's on a constant replay in my head, and i am glad it is. So you should totally listen to one of my favorite songs in the video below.



Have a wonderful night,
Domino

Oh Mr.Lagerfeld why do you have to be so dashing ?

Sorry for my hiatus of sorts and the oh so late review of the TO DIE FOR chanel couture 2010 shows. Fail. But it was to amazing to not talk about so...



I loved the hair and the makeup, and I thought that the whole hair idea kinda remined me of cruella devilla with a more feminine touch (flashback 101 dalamtions!... yes I know off topic).


how this has been in my dreams...awkward pause :/... this coat is straight from heaven, I mean seriously? Genius. In my opinion the coolest piece of the collection.




Total Ivanka Trump/Claudia Schiffer 80's power glam suit in a way. but still very "ill totally beat you in the board room" sort of way
