House is one of my favorite TV shows


I like this picture from last week's TV guide. Are there any other House fans out there? Hugh Laurie is now my favorite actor on one of my favorite TV shows. I like him because he is smart, witty, good-looking and complicated. I particularly liked last season's final episode where he was involved in Amber's death. If you've never seen the show, it might take a while to understand the story and the characters at this point.

Real motorcycle boots






There have been a lot of motorcycle boots on the runways this season. I really like the look, but buying from a big fashion designer is definitely outside my budget. I'm thinking about getting some real motorcycle boots from somebody like Harley-Davidson, even though I have never riden a motorcycle. They are definitely more "authentic" and I would imagine that they are much more reasonably priced.

Obama comes to my hometown!













Last Friday Obama came to speak in my old home town of Chillicothe, Ohio. Although I could see him, he was too far away for me to get a good photo. I really like this picture of me and my dad.

Victoria's Secret has wide leg jeans



A couple of days ago I was searching the internet for some baggier jeans like I had seen recently in the news on celebrities like Katie Holmes and Victoria Beckham. Thanks to the Asian Cajuns (blog at www.asiancajuns.blogspot.com) for telling me to check with Victorias Secret. I don't usually shop at this store, but I might if I decide to buy some in the near future. I noticed that one of these was called the "70's jean." I was in high school during the 70's and maybe that's one reason I like this style. I am also fairly tall and broad shouldered, and this style usually suits my body shape.

Hel-looks.com blog features black leather jackets



It looks like a lot of people are wearing black leather jackets in Finland these days. Some of the people look so great, it makes me proud to say that I am part Finnish. Does anybody know where I can find these wide-leg pants in the US?

I like Pink's style













I really like Pink's style. Not just her hairstyle, but I love her tough, yet approachable persona. On the recent MTV music award she gave a super-cool performance where she would simply snap her fingers and stuff would blow up. She was a real bad-ass, and I loved it. I hope that we will be able to enjoy her performances for years to come.

If I were to pick a style icon, its Gwen Stefani






Although I don't know any of her songs, if I had to pick a celebrity as my style icon, it would be Gwen Stefani. Although I'm quite a bit older, I have bleached blond hair and sometimes like to wear bright red lipstick. I also am partial to the glam rock chick style that she is known for.
