With all this Shakespeare on Twitter and Shakespeare-meets-Fashion in our heads lately, we've gotten super-cultured. And so, we decided to bring you our new *Favorite Things* page in poetry form. This will be blank verse. With the look of a concrete poem. If you've studied this in school, you will catch our drift. If not, click on the links. We are not so skilled at writing in iambic pentameter. We hope you understand.

the bard goes digital


Yesterday, we Tweeted about a curious new (bizarre) form of Shakespeare.

Twitter!!
Twitter??

Huh?

We learned from a FB friend that "Romeo and Juliet [...] is happening live and in real time - in modern Britain and on Twitter." It's a project and a Website called Such Tweet Sorrow where Romeo and Juliet is "performed" by six characters -- members of the Royal Shakespeare Company -- over a five-week period. That's kinda super-cool when you think about it. I mean Romeo and Juliet is love story about a couple of 16 year-olds right? And who better to Tweet than 16 year-olds? I love love love this idea, and am eager to follow the whole cast on Twitter and watch this play play out. And I can't wait to Re-Tweet Juliet's line from yesterday,

RT @julietcap16 Reflecting on today... Montague is a murderer!! I WAS BORN A #Capulet AND WILL DIE a Capulet!!!


Wasn't it Shakespeare himself who wrote for his character, Hamlet, "The play's the thing. Wherein I'll catch the conscience of a lot of new followers." I do believe so.

happy tax day everyone!


We interrupt these fashion messages to bring you a curious freebie food Tax Day message. Apparently there is an ice cream pizza in existence? That you can get for free? If you wait on line between certain hours? At certain locations? And apparently this ice cream pizza is composed of ice cream, red frosting and white chocolate? But you didn't hear it from us.

sprinkles cupcakes





Let's try a little word association:

Los Angeles
Sprinkles Cupcakes

Yup, me too. And that icing! How do they get their icing to look so darn mouth-wateringly delicious? I wonder if our sales team is ordering Sprinkles to the Dollhouse LA Market showroom right now? They could send someone to the store in Beverly Hills on 9635 Little Santa Monica Boulevard to pick some up. Or they can order online. I hope they get the Red Velvet.

tavi is always amazing



Remember Tavi, the then-12-year-old Super Fashion Blogger whom Teen Vogue featured and then we featured? Well, we have continued to admire Tavi's blogging talent remotely, in W magazine where she was featured, in videos during New York Fashion Week where she was personally invited to cover the shows, and of course, on her own Super Fashion Blog, Style Rookie. Tavi is always modest. And always so blow-your-mind talented in her fashion observations and writing style. Sorry to gush Tavi. But we admire you. Continue to do what you do! Like take over the planet through great writing. Fine with us.

katsuya is full of stars


Katsuya, a Japanese chic (or shi shi) sushi place designed by Philippe Starck with four tony locations in the Los Angeles area is where our sales team will be dining on Monday night. And we who are left behind are a bit jealous. I mean, yes they do have to do all the work selling the Dollhouse line to all the major stores, and yes, they certainly MORE than deserve a great meal with Brad Pitt and Kim Kardashian (at nearby tables), but that doesn't mean we don't have to be a bit envious, no?

Check out Katsuya here. Have you been? It looks and sounds fab. We here can only imagine.
