Style, by Mary

Hi! I'm Mary Rambin, designer of Moe Bags. I'll share my style, essential tips, and you make it your own. Here's my take on fashion and how it relates to life. Fashion is not life. it just makes it more fun. (I post most of my entries as they happen via my iPhone, making it difficult to always have perfect grammar and spelling for several reasons. Also, like most people in my generation, I rely on Spell Check. I can't spell for shit. If you can't tolerate that, my apologies.) To learn more about my handbags, visit www.MoeBags.com. Anything you want to know...email me your questions at moedesigns@aol.com.

Picnic in Central Park. Mason has his eyes on my egg salad sandwich…well, as much as possible. The poor dog needs some sunnies. Picnic in Central Park. Mason has his eyes on my egg salad sandwich…well, as much as possible. The poor dog needs some sunnies.

We just finished an amazing meal at Surya. It’s my second time to eat Indian, but Meghan says it’s my first true experience. Delicious!! The others in the group claim Surya is one of the best in NYC. Surya is on the corner of 7th and Bleeker. We just finished an amazing meal at Surya. It’s my second time to eat Indian, but Meghan says it’s my first true experience. Delicious!!

We’re trying to take a serious picture of me teasing Megs’ hair, but it’s not happening. She demanded I do it, but we’re getting mixed reviews. We’re trying to take a serious picture of me teasing Megs’ hair, but it’s not happening. She demanded I do it, but we’re getting mixed reviews.

FINALLY!!!!  Holy Shit! I just called on a whim and got a reservation at Babbo, THE Babbo.  Voted one of the most difficult places to get into.  You can only book a month in advance, but even still, you can’t get a table. Walking in isn’t even easy.  If you’re lucky you can wait for over an hour, but they actually turn people away as well. Tonight will be my first visit.  Will definitely report back!!!

The Necklace Below

The necklace I’m wearing below, I bought on Prince in NoLita from a street vendor. On the weekends, some really talented artists set up booths and sell their designs at a bargain. Price = $40

You’ve seen it all over the red carpet, now you try the loose bun.  Instead of pulling all of your hair back, let the front hang loose.  So it’s like you have a thin bob.  Note: You can only do this with layered hair. Here’s how you do it: Gather hair without pulling back front strands. Wrap hair in a bun shape at the base of your hairline. Use a rubber band to tie back. Pull hair out of rubber band a little so it’s a funky bun. Use bobby pins to pin up loose hairs.  Also, you can reconstruct bun to cover rubber band.  This is hard to explain, just play around until you get a shape you like. Lots of REGULAR hold or FLEXIBLE hold hairspray.  If you use anything stronger, your hair won’t move naturally, and you’ll have a helmet head. Tip: THE BUN DOESN’T HAVE TO BE PERFECT. An easy solution for a bad hair day.

For a gloomy, rainy NYC day, I’m wearing a bold blue raincoat by INC.  Just because the weather is dull, doesn’t mean you have to be. (Sorry for the bad picture, I’m without camera again.)

HYSTERICAL!

Don’t really have an opinion on John Mayer.  His music is a little cheesy, he’s a little hot, he’s dated everyone, he must be doing something right.  HE DEFINITELY DID THIS RIGHT.

Thanks Funny or Die!
