Allow me to introduce you to mah bouncing bay-bay:
Because CLEARLY I didn’t have enough going on, or enough things to do on the internet, Catherine of Her Bad Mother and I decided to throw ourselves headlong into another project, called We Covet (frankly, I have a thing for the word "covet", and am ever so glad to be able to deploy it here on the intarnets).
So what is this new site, you ask? Here’s the four sentence(ish) break-down:
We Covet is a blog written for women by women about consumer goods, services,
design, and style — the good, the bad, and the ugly that we all
encounter on a daily basis. Here we review products and product design,
heralding the greatness of things we love and thumbing our noses at
things we don’t — from makeup to toys, clothing to cameras, furniture to cleaning products, you name it. We
want to share our finds and findings with you, have a few laughs, and
make life prettier, easier, and more fun for our readers. Better living
through consumerism! HUZZAH!
I wanted to create a space where I could share with other women my unvarnished, dead-honest opinions about things I buy, use, and yes, covet. A space that while being intimate and reflecting my taste(s), is a touch less personal than Sweetney, so I don’t come off sounding like a cheesy infomercial (or, alternately, a devotee of Adbusters). Anyway, I’m really, really excited about being able to talk style and design and let my consumerist roots show a little, and I hope you’ll enjoy peeking in on our design finds and product findings, and maybe in the process find a thing or two that you’ll covet, too.
I’d love to hear any feedback, suggestions, ideas, or tips you might have about the site. And both Catherine and I want to feature reader picks for products and services they love, so please don’t hesitate to email us at any time: wecovet@gmail.com
So please, go check it out, and let me know what you think!
