How to dress like Serena

I love watching the serie "Gossip Girl" and I wanted to post someting about it. But I didn't just want to talk about what happens in this serie or what's so great about it, so I picked a subject more specific; Serena Van Der Woodsen's style, I choose this because i love the way she dresses.
I did a little bit of research on the internet and I was really suprised by all the commotion about her style, a lot of blogs talk about her so that makes it easy to blog someting about her myself. I picked one blog out in particular; How to dress like Serena Van Der Woodsen. The person who wrote it, observed Serena's clothes very well and gives you all the advice you need to look like her, even how to get your hair wavy like Serena. What's certain, is that the outfits this actrice wears in the serie are not cheap, really expensive actually. The blogger tought of that, so she references to a couple shops where you can buy clothes who look like her's for less money, you can even buysome of her clothes on Ebay!
I think it's lovely there are blogs like these to dress like Serena because she has a fabulous style but in my opinion, you shouldn't copy everything she wears and it's best to create your own style using tips from blogs like these!

The power of Raggae

I was watching the popular tv-quiz "De allerslimste mens", i normally don't really like this show but when the right people are involved, it can be great to watch. This time, there was a video involved that really impressed me. It's a video where you get to see a child who gets really annoying when he needs to sit in his car seat. The father is a deep believer of the power of raggae and he plays a song from Bob Marley, he puts on the recond "Buffalo soldier". The child calms down when he hears the song and makes a happy face. This is the proove that Raggae does have a great power over people! It brings peace and cheers people up. The people in the video even see it as a sort of faith, like believing in Jesus. But instead of believing in a god, they believe in music like raggae and chronic!

Kanye's Runaway

I've seen the short movie called "Runaway", directed en played by Kanye West, the famous singer. In this movie, he saves a girl. But it's not a normal girl, you can call her rather special. She is a bird, a phoenix actually. A real pretty bird, with lots of colours. At the end of the short movie, the girl or so called bird burns to death and turns into stone. That's tragic for both of them because kanye and the bird-a- like fell in love. You can call this movie weird but i think it's really pretty, the images are wonderfull. And it may be not that normal but it's special in a good way. The movie is also full off music, there is actually more singing than talking. I do like the songs in it, but one in particular; Runaway, called after the movie itself. I especially like the clip, the dancing ballerina's. I love watching ballet, it's gracieus and elegant. here's a link to the song/clip, it's also part of the movie but they made a cut version of it.
