Hong Kong Collection by O.P.I




OPI has came out with a collection of 12 NEW colors for their Hong Kong Collection for Spring/Summer of 2010..!!! I love the colors from this collection, they are Very Colorful, Bright and Bold. There are three shimmery colors ( "Bling Dynasty", "Pearl of Wisdom" and "Meet Me on the Starry Ferry").

Some GREAT colors for this Summer if your into bright colors i think are "Hot & Spicy", "A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find" (even thought they do look a bit similar "A Good Man-darin is Hard to Find" is a lot BRIGHTER).

However,  I do think "Red My Fortune Cookie" looks a lot like "Off With Her Red" (Alice in Wonderland Collection).

My personal FAVS are:

-"Dim Sum Plum" (Dim Sum Plum is a cool pink/plum color. I LOVE Purple..! This one is the only color close to my liking. This is a color that pretty much always looks great..!!!)

-"Jade is the New Black" (Jade is the New Black is a Dartmouth Green, i was going to compare it to Forest Green but found it too dark, So, I Wikipedia shades of green and found Dartmouth Green was closest. I'm not really a green person, but this color caught my eye. From what i read this is one of the Popular Colors.!)

-"Meet Me on the Starry Ferry" (Meet Me on the Starry Ferry is a violet rose color. It's a more girly color than I'm used to. It is perfect for Springtime.!!!). 

-"Suzi says Feng Shui" (Suzi Says Feng Shui is a sky blue color. I love it , these kind of blues are always beautiful).

Heres the Sun in HD.

On March 30, 2010 NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory took different photos of the sun. The different colors coming off the sun are the different temperature ranges of the gases. Reds are cool, around 107,540 degrees Fahrenheit, blues and greens are much hotter about 1.8 million degrees!!!(Damn, that's HOT..!) The pictures are taken by a 3-ton satellite, which was thrown into the Earth's orbit 3 months ago, it shows our nearest star up close and in fine detail.

Richard Fisher, director of the Heliophysics Division at NASA Headquarters in Washington says "These initial images show a dynamic sun that I had never seen in more than 40 years of solar research, SDO will change our understanding of the sun and its processes, which affect our lives and society. This mission will have a huge impact on science, similar to the impact of the Hubble Space Telescope on modern astrophysics.”



Here is a video of The Sun's eruptions.



It is said by NASA that SDO will determine how the sun's magnetic field is generated, structured and converted into violent solar events such as turbulent solar wind, solar flares and coronal mass ejections. These immense clouds of material, when directed toward Earth, can cause large magnetic storms in our planet’s magnetosphere and upper atmosphere.

Cynthia Vincent shoes are hard to find in Target !?!

The Cynthia Vincent for Target shoe collection launch was said to be a disaster. Unless you got the pair you wanted. The problem was that even though Target had set the launch date nationwide for this past Sunday many stores didn't respect it.

The line arrived in some stores a week or two earlier, which was great for people who had caught it. Other people went to stores on Sunday and found nothing. Online, some sandals sold out within a few hours.

People were pissed that certain styles they had seen in fashion magazines and blogs never made it to Target stores. The brown gladiator wedges existed only in photos. From what i seen at Target the printed wedge and the strappy ring flat sandal were the only ones available.(Online, you can see if a store near you has them.)


Racked reports that some Target employees weren't even familiar with the collection, some were confused or misinformed.

The LA Times fashion blog: "If Target is going to continue it's strategy of whipping shoppers into a frenzy every few weeks over a new designer collaboration, it's  going to have to deliver."

The blog also reports that a spokesperson for Target said it would be re-stocked in mid-May.

For me, Target has finally created the best collaboration of designers!( Jean Paul Gaultier, Sonia Kashuk, Mossimo, etc.)

There have been some problems recently. Let's see how Target handles its launch of Zac Posen's collection, which is due to hit stores on April 25.

Cynthia Vincent for Target

Fashion designer Cynthia Vincent has made a line of sandals, heels and wedges that have FINALLY arrived to a Target store near you. 13 pairs within Cynthia Vincent's collection will take you on a style safari. As you'll see, bold and bright colors, peeks of patterns and sophisticated metal work. Five of the 13 styles will be exclusively available at Target.com.
