Angelina Jolie's $1,195 eye candy purse by UK specialty designer (actually not over-the-top expensive by celeb standards), and then you click through a slideshow of similar styles, colors -- including a tote available at Target.com for $19.99. At a $1,175 savings, that certainly delivers on the "Look for Less" promise!

Hannah Montana Jumping on the Bed ....

Friday, March 21, 2008
As discussed on radio this week, if you've ever been around Disney stars & their handlers, you know they run a tight ship. So, THIS must be a calculated decision to let Miley be Miley along with her best friend Mandy Jiroux as she transitions from having a 7-9 year old following to maintaining & building pre-teen & teen fans.

Reminds me of the transition of Lizzie McGuire to Hilary Duff.

The antics are pure 15-year-old. According to People Magazine, Miley does the editing. In other words, it's pretty much what every other teen girl you may know is doing -- except the beds they're jumping on are at the Four Seasons and the snacks they're pigging out on are on a private plane vs back of the station wagon. Otherwise, same, same.

Will say this ... Miley probably has 18 months tops before hanging out in bed with your girlfriend is going to have a whole different connotation & be the kind of viral video that cultivates the wrong kind of fan base. I hope she & everyone who works with her gets this & doesn't learn the hard way.

See what you think. As with the Hannah Montana concert, you may want to adjust the volume DOWN ...

Message in a Bottle

Saturday, February 23, 2008

A friend brought this site to my attention. He friend Megan Siegel created it. It's quite the creation. Have seen a lot of photo sites, but never anything quite like Zenie Bottle. Definitely take a look ... The music really makes it all come together. The virtual collages are relatively easy to put together & it doesn't cost a thing. There are some really creative ones. You can post anonymously which is nice option to have. Fun way to share photos of a certain event or around a theme. You can even insert video. Plus, you can post your bottle on your website or Facebook page. Pretty neat.

Here's a sweet one called "My Best Friend's Wedding!" , another for an Inspiring Athlete one of my friend's lovely family.

Free, Legal Music

Wednesday, February 20, 2008
I'm an iTunes girl, but there are other options if your looking to diversify & cut costs (maybe steer your kids this way). Here's three legal music sites offering free downloads:

SpiralFrog.com - Download the latest hits from Amy Winehouse and Rihanna for free (this prospect was very exciting to our research/writier/producer La Toya). Because the site is completely supported by advertising, there's no cost to download music. They give the majority of their advertising revenue to publishers and labels who own the music. But, the music downloads are not compatible with iPods and you can't burn CD's. So, this is great if you want to turn your PC into a stereo (my daughter has), otherwise limited.
