"My personal style is girly. I love dresses, high-waisted skirts and flirty little skirts with cute flowery things on them. I love headbands and old antique necklaces. I'm really into retro fashion like things that were beautiful then and can still be beautiful now in a more modernized way. I very rarely wear jeans because awhile back I decided that jeans make me tired, so I just wear skirts and dresses. I couldn't live without comfy cardigan sweaters because I get cold really easily. I'm always wearing a dress, so whenever I go inside where there's air conditioning, I'm the first one to get freezing cold, so I need something to put on top like a little wrap."Taylor loves:

"I got a necklace I really like from Urban Outfitters: it's really long with a charm on the end of it.""I'm inspired by how people dressed in the 60's and that beautiful, feminine energy of Jackie O. I like how faeries look with little dresses. I like sparkles. And glitter."Taylor's tips for dressing your height:1. "Keep an eye on length. Dresses made for regular heights can look like shirts on tall girls. Find styles that hit just above the knee or halfway up your theigh. Avoid cuts that sit at the top of the thigh."2. Don't be afraid of high heels! I went through a phase where I wouldn't wear high heels because I felt like a giant giraffe. Now I wear heels. It's all how you carry yourself."3. "Walk like a model. Throw your shoulders back at all times."
Blog* Nothing attracts men more than being nondescript! Title is from Mystery Science Theater 3000.* I blogged every day this month. I deserve a damn reward of some sort. REWARD ME.Awesome* This dude duct-taped his plane together to fly home:[Found at Unique Daily]THEN HE FLEW IT HOME. He flew home via the power of duct tape and his own mad genius. That is awesome, so long as I do not have to be IN the duct tape plane. I don't think I'd handle that well. I dislike regular planes. WIthout duct tape.Fandom* Russell T. Davies and Joss Whedon, the two men who most consistently break my heart via television, are merged into a glorious collaboration of credits:AND NO ONE DIES, SIRS. YOU SEE HOW NICE IT IS WHEN YOU DON'T DESTROY EVERYTHING GOOD AND PURE? ....I'm sorry. I watched the series finale of Dollhouse. And I just purchased Torchwood: Children of the Earth. These men are NOT on my good side.Food!Fail* I love junk food. I do. I think White Castle is the height of fast food, and if it's unhealthy, I will probably be first in line to eat it.Hand over the french fries, and most of you will live.But I do not delude myself into thinking fast food is healthy. Of course it's not healthy. That's the POINT. It's like when I went to a baseball game and they listed the calories for every food item. NO ONE on the planet thinks that a deep fried cheese-filled pretzel is good for you. But it is delicious.Which brings me to Taco Bell. Taco Bell is good, NOT good for you. Taco Bell is delicious and delightful, and I would NEVER in a million years imagine it as being healthful. SO DO NOT TRY, OK?WHAT? NO. LET MY FAST FOOD BE UNHEALTHY. IF I WANT HEALTHY, I'LL GO ORDER A FREAKING BAKED POTATO AT WENDY'S.Click here to see a longer commercial, with full-commentary by the ISS. I'm going to go deep fry some butter.Technology* I have a slogan for the good folks at iPad: "For that heavy flow.... of information, use an iPad!" (Please don't send Steve Jobs to turn off my computer, I need it).And the mockery continues, indefinitely:

How can you NOT? Here's a name: iTab, It makes me think of the soda, but at least I don't immediately think of women's feminine products.Politics* I really, really like Jenny Sandford, soon-to-be-ex-wife of Mark 'I Cry When I Get Caught Being A Complete Shithead' Sandford. His wife is a smart, classy woman. She did not stand beside her husband while he spouted a torrential flow of bullshit, and CRIED (I'm sorry, but it cracks me up. You are lying to EVERYONE, and leaving your state, which needs you due to economic FREE-FALL, and you go off to bang your girlfriend, you get caught, and you cry? Dude. At least have the balls to man up.). Jenny Sandford focused instead on her sons', and her own well-being, and refused to be party to her husband's pity parade.I do not agree with her on many issues (or any, I think), but she is a very smart lady with morals and ethics and a sense of self, and I would be delighted if more women like her joined the political arena. At this point, with the parties so divided and everyone freaking out at the opposite side, I think it would be a nice change to really respect the person you're debating.PS Her husband is the Nite Owl of American politics. He cries naked in his Basement of Shame.Daily Hot Guy[Tom Felton from the Harry Potter series, looking every bit the smug, condescending bastard from high school that you hated so much you totally wanted to make out with him... or was that just me? Smug, condescending bastards are sexy, in an angry way. Admit it.]Dollhouse* Look, I'm upset about Dollhouse getting cancelled, too, but this is hardly the time to- Oh, forget it:[Found at Emails From Crazy People]Priorities? Anyone? No?Daily Icon[Patti Smith, punk rock poet, lover of Robert Mapplethorpe, singer supreme, writer, political activist, and one of my biggest heroes. If Ms. Smith saw what had become of CBGBs, she'd rain down eternal hellfire and damnation on everyone involved. Plus she totally covered a Bruce Springsteen song, and lived in Jersey for a time. SO JERSEY WINS HA.]Nostalgia!Win* Remember My So-Called Life? Back before I hated Claire Danes, and back when everyone wanted to lose their virginity to Jordan Catalano? Great show. Anyway, then Claire Danes made me hate her through excessive suck, and Jared Leto stopped bathing, which is something only CERTAIN people can pull off. But lo, a change has come:[Found at World of Wonder]His hair may have distinct hints of Twilight sparkle!fail, but you know what? His outfit reminds me of David Bowie, so I am going to pretend Jared Leto is going to play David Bowie in a movie. That's right, I'm starting an internet rumor. Spread the word.Movie!Fail* Dear Matt Dillion:

Thandie rocks my world in this gorgeous Matthew Williamson Resort 2010 silk dress.
