Summertime TV

This is what I plan on watching this summer

 

The World According to Paris – June 1. She’s sort of disappeared from the lime light, which is odd, but I'm curious to see what she’s been up to.


  
Love Bites – June 2. I really, really love Becki Newton so I'll watch this hour-long romantic comedy. There are only nine episodes and it won’t be renewed, but I want to give it a shot.


 
Pretty Little Liars – June 14. This is such a guilty pleasure. The story kind of drags, but I can’t help but watch. Plus, I really love looking at the clothes and all the girls are so adorable.

 

 
Weeds – June 27. Excited! I love crazy Nancy. Most of the rest of the cast annoys me though.


 
Entourage – July 24. I haven’t really loved it the last few seasons, but I gotta see the show to the end. I have a girl crush on Emmanuelle Chriqui.


 
I think Flipping Out and The Rachel Zoe Project will be back in August. These are the two reality shows I live for!



 
I also plan on catching Mike & Molly, Gossip Girl and 90210 repeats. I didn’t watch these all year and feel like I missed out.

 

 
 
I've also recently started watching Ally McBeal again. The entire series is on Netflix. Man, I loved this show when I was in college.
 
 
What are you watching this summer?

CON TODO EL SABOR DEL PEÑON DE LOS BAÑOS



Tues 31st May: Arnhem Mode Biennale - "Elements" - Bless












Its always a joy to see the work of Bless in different settings and scenarios. At this years Arnhem Mode Biennale they have taken advantage of the large expanse offered to utilise in free reign for an installation. Initially Desiree Heiss and Ines Kaag wanted to implement their surreal interior design by creating a labyrinth of string. Experiments were made working with twine but unfortunately the fire risk meant the Health & Safety regulations put a stop to developing this concept. But the limitation was turned into advantage when they discovered a Spanish manufacturer to collaborate with on recreating the illusion in metal. Links are put together by hand to construct chain curtains which meant pixelated images could be recreated in enameled links. Inbetween the hanging hardware images nestle a mix of their integrated and morphed mechanics e.g a vacuum cleaner table or saddle chair. The best part is a car clad in a camel leather outer covering, sewn in panels to replicate the fixtures and fittings of the chassis. Inside the hard looking shell is bouncy foam from a sofa so perhaps its function could end up as a large bean bag to crash out on ..........

ABC Wed: T for tribal chief





http://abcwednesday-mrsnesbitt.blogspot.com/


Here I was rubbing shoulders with a tribal chief. This Kelabit chief from the Bario highlands of Borneo was not only big in his position as a chief. He was also a very big man physically.

When I asked to take a photo with him, he obliged, but he probably wonder why. My friends tease that I was flirting.

Please note his long ears.

Tues 31st May: Arnhem Mode Biennale 2011 - RA "The Sugar House"






I have come to Arnhem for the Mode Biennale 2011 entitled "Amber" = A for Arnhem, M for Mode, B for Biennale..........
The last time I came to visit ThreeASFOUR exhibiting here was in 2007, when I covered the event in real time as a contributing journal for SHOWstudio, which you can view here.
Today started with a sneak peak and explanation as part of the press tour from curator Joff .........all of which will be unveiled officially at the opening night tomorrow. Celebrations kicked off around town this evening with Antwerp's initiative RA who took over the Biennale offices to hold a one off pop-op up installation for a select crew of the designers they represent. Here are images of Narelle Dore's purple crystals, Elise Gettliffe & Fahd El Jaoudi's foam flowers and leather patchwork back-pack and Romain Brau's Mermaid............... a little collective taste of what more lies in store for the rest of the month long festival.

See the full line up of exhibitors for this years Biennale here.

Man Candy Monday - Milo Ventimiglia

First up, my newest bloggy friend, Christianna, featured me today in her “Any Friend of Mine” series. So head on over to The Girl With The Blue Bow, read my interview and then stay awhile. Her blog has become an instant favorite of mine!

Now let's get to the candy.


I’ve had a crush on Milo Ventimigla since he played Jess on Gilmore Girls. I always wanted Rory to end up with him. I think he's hot and I kinda like his crooked mouth. Plus, he looks good in a suit. Or shirtless. Take your pick.









Since Heroes ended, I haven’t really seen much of him. He'll be in The Divide later this year. It's a post-apocalyptic thriller about eight survivors hiding in the basement of their apartment building. After getting settled in, a hazmat team comes to rescue them. Or so they thought. The hazmat team ends up attacking them. I pretty much like every post-apocalyptic movie, so I’ll probably see this. Check out the trailer:

This was in Singapore, there was a tropical storms, and many trees were uprooted. I think of the tornado in USA this past week. I imagine a lot of the trees would be uprooted too.

Sunday 29th May: Burger Queen Beauty Contest





Scottee held a little soiree in Soho to announce his new project "Burger Queen" at a reception complete with glittery burger cupcakes. The idea behind the competetion is a spectacle to celebrate diverse personal beauty in protest to the promoted encouragement of adapting to "accepted" ideals in current media. Instead of staying in to watch "Supersize vs. Superskinny" use your precious time to better effect and get down to The Royal Vauxhall Tavern for a much more enriching and fun experience. Better still, why not enter the competition to impress an array of judges with your fashion, culinary and talent skills in order to take home the £100 prize and crown of Burger Queen 2011.

The doors open for the first heat this Wednesday with resident judge Amy Lamé (seen here) joined by a stellar lineup of famous faces......... concluding with an incredible crew of judges for the final including Paloma Faith and Lisa Stansfield.
Tickets are £6 or £9.99 with burger & chips or £19.99 if you fancy attending all four shows. For dessert Scottee will be showing a video diary documenting his weekly self inflicted fad diets running in conjunction with the contest. This week's film follows a cabbage soup diet........ good luck Scottee, I think I'll stick with Sue Tilley's homemade burger cupcakes.........

1st June - Heat 1, 8th June- Heat 2, 15th June- Heat 3, 22nd June- Final
RVT, 372 Kennington Lane, SE11
Doors at 7pm, Show at 8pm
