We all know, even though men say otherwise, that it ain't easy being a woman nowadays. And men don't have it as easy as women think.
Media always promotes the vision of a perfect, unreal woman/man, and these make them feel ugly, unwanted and incomplete. Finally a friendly product!.

The yay!Scale is -obviously- a scale, and works as one, except for this little detail: when someone stands on it, she/he will read a compliment like "cute", "hot" or "perfect".
And let me tell you there is more to it than an original design and great concept. Each and one of the yay!Scales is unique and handmade.

I'm singing in the shower...

If you are a music nerd (like me), I know you'll enjoy this. All of you who enjoy singing in the shower, now can do it with style.

This original sets consists in several pieces: A cute vertical piano ready to hold your toothbrush, a soapy keyboard, matching trashbin and cup, a jazzy soap dispenser, and the neat shower curtain that includes twelve quaver-shaped hooks.

Shhh...

Do you have a secret you've never ever told? A secret you don't have the courage to reveal?
Well, so the 200,000 people contributing to PostSecret.

PostSecret is an art community. People send postcards (annonimously), revealing secrets of their own. Every sunday, we can enjoy on www.postsecret.blogspot.com some of the newly arrived secrets, posted by the man in charge (and creator) of this project: Frank Warren.

I have become a great postsecret fan. Since I first visited the website in 2004, I visit it periodically. Reading the secrets -the truths-of other people, promotes reflection and empathy. That's why I suggest PostSecret's books. Even though you can view the secrets for free on the website, the book contains even more of these beautiful, revealing artworks. You never know what you'll find. Maybe your own secret, just written by someone else... Your own truth...

I know I have ;)

House M.D.


And he's back!
After six exciting seasons, Greg House returns to the small screen for a seventh season that promises to be just great.
Haven't watched House yet? No problem. Here's what you need to know:
Gregory House (Hugh Laurie), head of the diagnostics team at the fictional Princeton‑Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, is a very controversial and grumpy human being. His medical abilities though, are of great genius.
Every episode features a different medical case -a puzzle- for House and his differential diagnosis team to solve. However, due to his excentric medical theories and practices, he is very often seen clashing with his boss, his team, or even his patients (and patients' families).
This show has many reasons to be called wonderful. the biggest of those, is the writing.
The sarcasm and morbid humor of the characters (especially House), make this a non-precedent medical drama.
If you have watched it, I'm sure you know what I mean. If not... What are you waiting for?

Adidas Originals: The importance of being you!


I've always believed a piece of clothing, or even a collection, must be original and seasonproof. But most importantly, it must have that trace of you. A touch of something that makes you like it no matter what was on the latest Fashion Week runways.
Now, this store, doesnt't have what it takes... It owns what it takes! Every single outfit yells a statement of personality and innovation, without losing the sense of comfort and every-day fashion.

Control your world with your fingers



I would like to dedicate this entry to a fruit that changed my life: Apple.
It all begun this past spring, while I was visiting NYC with my mom. I went there with the idea set on my mind: I wanted one of those music-touchy-pretty thingys.
After 20 minutes inside the beautiful 5th ave apple store, I knew I was the proud owner of a 32g Ipod Touch. What I didn't know was the difference it would make on my life.
Hang on. Before you picture me as a technology-addicted freaky geek, let me tell you I'm not. (At an early age I started developing an interest in technology, and currently we get along very well, but that's it. What I actually am is a music-addicted nerd).
Anyways, I got this device, and it and I have been inseparable since then. Why?
It just does EVERYTHING.
So, a piece of advice: If you thinking of buying a new mp3 player or new cellphone buy an Iphone. In the log run, it will turn out to be the cheapest, most reliable and of course COOLEST thing you ever purchased.
If you're not thinking of buying any of those things... Buy an Ipod touch! Why? Just give it a testdrive in the store.
You'll thank me...
