The Only Solution Was to Stand and Fight

 What I'm Wearing:
  • ASOS navy military constructed blazer
  • Micheal Kors white button-up shirt
  • White v-neck sweater
  • Bullhead khaki skinny pants
  • ASOS brown leather shoes
  • Gap brown leather belt
    I wore this outfit to a job interview that I had for the Arts Council of Oklahoma. I definitely did not want to wear denim jeans to a job interview so I chose to wear my skinny khaki pants. I also threw on my new ASOS military blazer on top so the outfit would be a little casual, I did not want to be too overdressed, that would have been silly. In my opinion, this is a perfect outfit for anyone going to a job interview. It is sophisticated yet casual look.

      Have Your Cake and Eat it Too

           The former French Queen, Maria Antoinette was rumored to have said “Let them eat cake” when her peasants was starving because they had no bread. Now cake is serve on birthdays, weddings, and many other special occasions. Which gives you all the more reasons why you should have one of Elizabeth Collings Jackson Pollock inspired triple chocolate cake.
          Jackson Pollock is an abstract expressionist American painter from Wyoming. In 1947, he perfected his drip technique which made him famous. Unlike traditional painters who used easels, Pollock laid his canvas on the floor. Instead of using brushes, he poured paint directly from the can and used stick to drip them. Pollock moved freely through his huge canvas, almost as if he was dancing, he called this technique, action painting. Even though his paintings have no meaning, they are filled with movement, energy, and passion.
          Elizabeth Colling modeled her triple chocolate wedding cake after Pollock’s drip technique. She first took a panel of milk chocolate  and drizzled melted white and dark chocolate with a spoon. Lastly, Colling attached the panels of chocolate art onto her rich triple chocolate cake covered in smooth fondant. Viola, a cake inspired by Jackson Pollock’s masterpiece ready in minutes.
