WINNER WINNER // CHICKEN DINNER

Well, not really a chicken dinner.
More like a super-rad necklace from one of my favorite jewelers: Gorjana

A month back I entered a Twitter/Gossip Gil contest and was 1 of 3 winners!


See!
A winner!! :)

Here's a link to my win:


Last night I picked up my mail and guess what arrived?!
My necklace!!!





 Look at the packaging!


Oooh!
So pretty!!


Love! Love! Love!


However, being the blonde that I am, I forgot to take a picture of me wearing my contest win.

Go figure.
I'll be sure to get an outfit post up soon featuring the new piece :)

PortmanteauLists - Top five (mainly) TV kisses of the last two decades

Following my imminent and continuous self-imposed re-training of a cynic in intensive therapy, I've taken to insisting on girly talk with girl and boy friends and watching what-I-now-no-longer-call-soppy-but-merely-romantic films and series. In the spirit of this session I've put together my favourite kisses which didn't make me gag but genuinely aww and/or find very hot (am I allowed to say that or does this violate the "girly" rules?)

Post me your top five in the comments, I'm curious to see what everyone else came up with - and listen to Silly Love Songs (Yes, the Glee version for obvious reasons) while you look at the gifs. Enjoy!



1. Kurt and Blaine aka Klaine / Blurt in Glee

Trust me, apart from the B&W topsy turvy close up, these are all different parts of the same kiss. Take a close look. Seriously. We can all learn from this kiss, I've never seen a kissing scene so perfectly executed. Emotions, intensity, technique, drive, timing, context and serious, serious levels of hotness. Did I mention intensity?

2. Blair and Chuck aka Chair in Gossip Girl

Hot. If they didn't cover the essentials so much with positioning and annoying overlaid cinematic effects this could almost be classified soft porn.

3. Willow and Tara in Buffy

First kiss I ever cared about. Ever.


4. Joan and Cherie aka Kristin and Dakota in The Runaways

Hnnnf.
That is all. Damn that groping law. "I wasn't actually allowed to grope her or anything. There were major restrictions."



5. Rachel and Ross in Friends

The joy of GIF

I discovered the gif specific setting on google today. I didn't even have that much fun when I was a child in a children's toy store. The best searches are narrowed down to TV shows, as generic terms merely result in badly drawn static graphics, which defeats the purpose of gif animation to illustrate a point, expression or feeling better than anything. And I wanted to do a really cheesy, TV based post. Just because.

What you have to do is go to google image search, click on the link that leads you to the Advanced Search section and select "GIF" in the drop down menu for "File Type": Google Advanace Image Search.

You're welcome.

So, I know what you're thinking. "She only discovered this now?"

http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn2/LittleBlackyPro/tumblr_li6pziWa3v1qap4ct.gif

No, of course not. It's just the first time I've actually had fun with it. So here are some others that I know myself to "think" and "do" in reaction to things I've seen and know I shall have to use in the future. As a little collection for future references, if you will.

Anyhow, http://static.tumblr.com/hcyenj7/Q1Ilj31nk/black_books_-_this_is_fantastic.gif

And to be really girly, some kissing scenes I like. That's not exactly in the spirit of the other gifs, though,I just like looking at them. Yes, I iz a girl, as rare as that may come across. If you haven't watched any of the following, this is a SPOILER WARNING.
http://inky.me/gif/amelie-revenge.gif

Amelie, the episodes of Glee called "Originals" and "Sexy" (season 2), Ugly Betty, Friends, The Runaways, Gossip Girl, and Romeo and Juliet (the one with Claire Danes). I warned you. Apologies for doing this to you.

And the best kiss on TV of the decade. Or even since the Ross and Rachel kiss. Le sigh.
