The Animal Print Shop makes me think of the segment on The Tonight Show when Jay Leno features animal experts. It’s my favorite thing ever. No one ever really knows how the baby lemur will act — will he eat his banana or pretend to pick bugs from Jay’s hair. The unexpectedness of the whole thing draws me in. I imagine while Ms. Montrose [...]

In my real, full-time job life I work as an editor at a technology firm and am all too familiar with personas — real people (corporate stock photography) — who help clients identify their job function with a familiar face. When, I saw these ads by Allan Peters for Proximity Minneapolis, I immediately thought of [...]

Have you noticed the cheeky penguins popping up around Boston’s subway stations? If you’re not Boston-based, let me fill you in. There’s Roast Beef, the ladies man who won’t mate for life; Plum Pudding, the bad boy who stands his ground when it comes to fish; Lillico, the petite female whose people insist she’s not a diva [...]

I am really excited to tell you about Trephin, a new salon that our friends (and stylists) Brian Rand and Moe Smith are opening in Boston in July. The inspiration behind the salon’s name comes from a trephine, which is a drill used to perform a trephination — a procedure in which a doctor drills [...]

However, it actually wasn’t the intimate look inside the diva’s new Buddhist [...]

Well, like I promised in my previous Evian Live Young post, there was more to come in regards to the dancing babies . . . and here it is: How do roller skating babies, “Rapper’s Delight,” and Evian find themselves aligned in 2009? Just watch: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQcVllWpwGs] I’m still trying to piece these seemingly unrelated parts [...]

Do you remember the Evian campaign a few year’s ago that parodied the film Bathing Beauty and featured more than 60 babies performing aqua aerobics while singing “Bye-Bye Baby?” No? Well, that’s OK, because you can watch it again here. Pretty cute huh? Since the original ads were such a huge success, Evian decided to [...]
