If you are anything like me, then you woke up this morning, checked your bank account, and realized that this holiday drained a larger portion of your funds than you had planned for (as always), leaving you with little to no spending room for a fabulous New Years dress. What to do.. what to do…
No worries, it happens. Here’s what we’re gonna do. First plan of action, steal something from your sister’s closet. Let’s be honest, you’ve never even seen her wear it. She won’t even notice if it’s gone for a few days. Buttt if that doesn’t work out, the second plan of action is to spice up that little black dress you’ve worn a thousand times, turning it into an outfit that everyone will think is brand-spankin-new. While this may sound a bit Fairy Godmother-ish, it is indeed possible and the most affordable solution. So bippity, boppoty, freakin-boo.
I’m gonna show you three different ways to transform that boring black dress into a ball gown (figuratively speaking, of course)…
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all of our Limbo Luster readers! What is a better way to say Merry Christmas than through the talented and graceful Will Farrell.So on that note, here is a little somethin’ somethin’ from us to you.
Know someone who is getting a new laptop this Christmas? Looking for a cute, unique computer case instead of those boring, ugly ones at Best Buy? Check out these felt laptop sleeves from Rare Device. They come in 13″, 15″, or 17″ and your color options are hot pink, orange, or light green. My personal fav is the green… just in case you were wondering :-).
These are great because you can slip them inside a larger brief case, bag, or suitcase and they won’t take up any more space than if the computer was in the nude.
Imagine this: 4 days of beer pong. Constant entertainment, including musical guests, midgets (yes it actually says this on the website), and nightly partayyys. Las Vegas. The best part? A chance at winning $50,000.
Now stop imagining because this is indeed a reality.
This is the World Series of Beer Pong. Whether you go to compete, or just to spectate, this is an event that no one should miss. If you want to sign-up, do it now because the deadline is December 21st.
Also, if you need to squeeze some last minute practicing in there, purchase your regulation-sized fold-up beer pong table immediately from…
Having difficulties finding a Wii this holiday season? Of course you are… I once was obsessed but now am just burnt out from trying to look for one. I’m sure you all can relate. I did however come across this article, How to Find and Buy a Nintendo Wii, from our trusty friends at GameKracken and thought I’d share the wealth.Hey, every little tip helps. Maybe you’ll be that lucky person who happens to be in the right place at the right time–man I hate those people.Either way, you may as well stick around for a while and check out GameKracken for other helpful tid-bits on gaming gifts this holiday season.

Our generation is constantly looking for the next useless, yet appealing, gadget. Well…I found it! I wandered into Restoration Hardware randomly one day and stumbled upon these little gems.
Four electronic drum pads plus a variety of percussion tones and rhythms all rolled into one… pun intended. If you are actually playing with this classy toy, instead of just using it to look cool, then you may also care that it comes with a headphone option and volume control. Go grab your roll-up drum set now as it is marked down from $59 to $41.99! Roll-Up Piano
If you were always more of a piano lover, or if you just can’t get enough of this roll-up fun, check out Restoration Hardware’s Roll-Up Piano. This 49-key electric keyboard can record your jam sessions as well as play them back. Release your inner-performing urge in style, and for only $59 at your closest Restoration Hardware.
There are few outfit options that can easily be dressed up and dressed down.
One of the best solutions for this is the Kimono look. Go for the three-quarter-length silky shirt with some type of floral pattern and throw it on over your favorite pair of dark-denim jeans. Want to dress up your look? Match it with a pair of heels and gold hoop earrings. To dress down the look, put on some flats and a solid-color headband. Either way, you’re good to go.
I’ll be the first to admit that Juicy can go a little overboard on the branding, but when I saw the Juicy Couture Boyshorts packaged as both cupcake and lollipop look-like sets, I must admit, I thought it was pretty cute. Perfect for this gift-giving season, these would make for the perfect Secret-Santa gift (given the right audience, of course).
This set comes in three pastels: pink, green, and yellow, all with the ‘Cupcake Couture’ logo and elastic waste. You can buy these now at Saks Fifth Avenue for $45.00.
The Lollipop-packaged boyshorts are packaged in cellophane on a stick, an read either “Live for Sugar,” “Keep Me Sweet,” or “Eat Candy.” These can be found at Saks Fifth Avenue as well, but for $18.00.
Sooo I was just watching Chelsea Lately’s talk show yesterday evening (hilarious, by the way…) and she was interviewing Jackie Warner, who as you all probably know, is the star of Bravo’s reality show, Work Out. So of course, being the blunt lady she is, Chelsea asks Jackie to stand up and show her abs on national television. Which, is no big deal, since we’ve all already seen them on her show.
What does come as quite the surprise however is that Chelsea, after Jackie complains that her once 12-pack is now merely an 8-pack, gets up and asks the audience if they want to see her abs… at which point she stands up and lifts up her shirt. Of course no one even notices her abs however, because everyone’s attention goes directly towards her beige pair of nylon Spanx, spanning up to her belly button. This was one of the most awesome TV moments I’ve seen in awhile. Literally.. hilarious. This just goes to show that obviously it is nice to have an 8-pack–not that I’d know–but for the rest of us normals, it is also nice to have a little under-the-table help as well. If you are unfamiliar with Spanx, allow me to familiarize you now…
At this day in age, there is literally a blog covering every topic and appealing to every audience. No matter how old you are or what you are interested in, there is bound to be someone who shares your hobbies that is blogging away on the internet. Most of us online addicts have our regular two to four blogs that we read daily. For me it’s the Uncrate, Engadget, etc. type of blogs. For my roommates, it’s PerezHilton and such. To each his own, eh?
The truth is though, it can be a slight annoyance jumping around from site to site every day just to read the latest or our favorite blogs. Wouldn’t it be nice to just have a simple dashboard on our computer which features all our blog favs and a glimpse of the newest content on them?
