'Looks like you just hooked yourself a Bass'

My one complaint for the season 2 finale of Gossip Girl was that there was a severe shortage of Dorota action. Besides that, it definitely delivered!

I could gush. BUT instead I'll allow the scene to do the talking...



Blair: Why aren’t you in Europe?
Chuck: I was, and Paris. Only to get your favourite macaroons from Pierre Herme.
Blair: And Germany?
Chuck: … To pick up your favourite Faux Stockings, you know how I adore them.
Blair: What are you doing here then?
Chuck: You were right, I was a coward running away again. Everywhere I went, you caught up with me. So I had to come back.
Blair: I want to believe you, but I can’t. You’ve hurt me too many times.
Chuck: You can believe me this time.
Blair: Oh, is that it?
Chuck: I love you too.
Blair: But, can you say it twice?
… No, i’m serious, say it twice.
Chuck: I love you.
I love you, 3.
I love you, 4.
I love you, 5.
I love you …

All my pathetic tweeny dreams have come true!
You have to admit, it was a long time coming as such SO worth it. Now what do I do with my Tuesday nights...

In other GG related news, Leighton has teamed up with Cobra Starship in what I find to be the strangest collab evver for the single 'Good girl gone bad'. This follows the track that leaked a couple of months ago 'Birthday' with Awesome New Republic. I'm liking her efforts far more than Taylor Momsen's (Courtney Love with a side of Ashlee Simpson anyone?). The less said about that the better...


I'll leave you with this amazing Chuck Bass memory, and the hope that Valley Girls will still be going ahead...

Sweet Valley high

As vitamin water continues to invade the planet on celebrity at a time...
(exhibit A and B)


...it can only mean it's time for one thing: Gossip Girl!

Last week my heart was in a million pieces for Rufus. He has no money and the Humphry kids are milking him for all he's got. Dan wants to go to a swanky uni. And Jenny needs a lot of money for what we can only presume are haircuts and 'edgy' clothing.
I was promised a re-emergance of the secret love child of Lilz and Rufus, but instead Georgina returned and got all religious for like 2 minutes. All said and done, I'm completely confused who I am rooting for with Blair. But seeing as how that doesn't look like it is about to be resolved anytime soon, let's move on to next week's episode...
Which takes us to VALLEY GIRLS. Yes the much anticipated spin off is happening next week. So on further investigation I found that Josh Schwartz will involve Kirstin and Jimmy in the equation if the show goes into a second series. Is it me or is he overlooking a major factor here: forget young Jimmy/Kiki....I'm talking young SANDY.
Imagine those brows on a teen kid. Brutal. You wouldn't like the Sandy when he's angry.


Anyway, No Doubt will be on the spin off episode performing 'Stand and Deliver'. I am really hoping that the guy in these promos is a young Rufus...



From the pictures floating around alone, I'm warming towards Lily's sister's character. But I'm really unsure as to how annoying it will be having to cross the storylines of the regular characters on Gossip Girl with Lily's past.
Yes I'm one of those people who sits through films constantly saying 'But that couldn't happen!'. On the other hand I love trashy TV. And next week's episode looks frought with things for me to explode over...

Nate and Blair...?


Blair minus Chuck...?


Dan and Serena...? Okay not so much trauma over this storyline but I'm sure SOMEONE still cares...


Dan mark 2 a.k.a mini Rufus...?! All will be revealed...

XOXO....no doubt?!

No Doubt are going to be on Gossip Girl! Be still my Gwen shaped beating heart!
Will Gwen sport a Chuck bass esque ensemble??
Or will they all have rags in their hair in homage to Adam Ant, as they're performing "Stand And Deliver" ??
Part of me is opting for a Chuck Bass ensemble. Think of the possibilities. Nay. Think of THE SCARF.
Note: I did not make this collage. I am not that obsessed....probably.

Well if Gwen and the crew fancy fixin' up before their appearance, they might want to go here and get their craft on. I love that someone was so obsessed with the scarf that they investigated it...ahem.

Until then, I'll just have to be happy with the promo...


And of course this vintage Penn photo..haha I can't cope!

Cakey Perry...yeah I went there!

Although nobody really needed to hear another reason why Katy Perry is the epitome of all that is amazing, she wore the best awards outfits I've seen in a LONG time at this year's Europe VMAs. One of my favourite pieces being this cupcake bag from Judith Leiber. I think Katy wore it far better than when it featured in sex and the city film, mostly because I barely noticed it in the film despite me being a cake obsessive and the bag practically having a starring role. However I also put this down to the fact that I was most likely blinded by the sight of the gawdawful louis vuitton crazy coloured mess that carrie gave her assistant...but enough of that as I could complain for hours...
This bag also incorporates my love for all things crystalised! I have big plans for my blackberry....

To see more by Judith Leiber go here!.

Dexter sweet stand

My favourite serial killer is back- season 3 is here! In America anyway....
To promote the launch date, these Dexter themed stalls were set up around America featuring faux magazines (such as Rolling Stone) with Dexter on the front, and of course blood red, colour co-ordinating sweets.


The last season launch for Dexter had blood spouting fountains set up everywhere, totally in tune with the show's black comedy. This would definately have scared me a bit if I'd have been cruising down the strip in vegas, it's like something our of 28 weeks later!

I can't wait to see the next series!
