Hello Darlings,

Once in a while a girl comes across certain things that make her everyday life more fun. My two most recent discoveries are florals and Pinterest, which may seem as completely different things, but one did influence the other. And with how fast people seem to be adopting Pinterest, I thought to add my 2 cents about why it's making my everyday life more interesting.

New social media options are introduced seemingly every week. Let's recap: Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Tumblr are the main ones that I am using (and already struggling to keep up with regular updates). Still, the latest addition to the mix is worth checking out, which is Pinterest.

Hello Darlings,

Trends come and go but there’s a select few that become classics. Amongst the little black dresses, a-line skirts, blazers and black pumps is also a sneaker. A sneaker that is traditionally defined to be the blank pump of sports shoes. I am speaking of a tennis shoe and in particular the classic Tretorn Nylite. The very first luxury sports shoe.

Tretorn Nylite an ultimate preppy kid sneaker with an impressive history behind its shoelaces. Since their first release in 1967, Sweden, the shoe took the world by storm along with tennis ace Björn Borg. During the period when Björn Borg’s awesomeness would put Kanye West to shame—both fans of Tretorn— the Nylite’s ruled the shoe world.

So I asked my friend Wilder Weir for his perspective on this delicate issue. As the ever-charming host of Oh So Cosmo and a creator of Paddling Bryans – Wilder Weir can talk “guy stuff” with men while still relating to women. I interviewed Wilder Weir while shooting an Oh So Cosmo segment, and here is what he said:

Hello Darlings,

With Valentine’s Day just days away, who better to ask about the love holiday than the dynamic duo— Josie Dye and Wilder Weir— who star in Cosmo TV’s popular show Oh So Cosmo that explores everything to do with men, sex, relationships and fashion. And indeed, Wikipedia does define Valentine’s Day as a holiday with its origin dating back 1,500 years! The holiday became associated with romantic love in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

Beginning with a woman’s perspective on Valentine’s Day, Josie Dye is a well known television and radio personality. Josie stars in the television show Oh So Cosmo and also has her own radio show, on 102.1 The Edge. I interviewed Josie while shooting an Oh So Cosmo segment, and here is what she said:
