Paper Doll - Photoshop Style

I found this both amusing and impressive. This guy takes high resolution photos of WWII militaria and insignia to create Photoshop images of himself in the Captain's uniform of both axis and allied armed forces.

View them all here!

Among my favorite features are the ever-changing facial hair and the way each uniform gives him a different personality.

Which one is your favorite?

Captain US 101st Airborne
Captain, French Foreign Legion

Captain, Long Range Desert Group

Fun Shopping in the Twin Cities


Looking for a new place to shop with the girls? Check out Fun Sisters - a boutique of jewelry, handbags, sandals, and more, all in bright colors and trendy styles. My sister, a lover of all things pink and colorful, got the seatbelt purse shown here.

The name of the boutique has an unique origin: the sisters were convicted of transporting counterfeit merchandise and the customs agent who brought the case against them dubbed them "the fun sisters." They're now selling legal merchandise, but it's still inspired by high end designers and sold at affordable prices. They have limited hours, but multiple locations, and definitely live up to their name!

These are pages from the JC Penny's 1977 Catalog. When I say I've survived the sevenies, well this should explain alot!
