How To: Make the Most of Crafting in Skyrim

There's a lot that you can do in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Sure, you can do the predictable thing and be a gay cat-man that shouts at dragons to death. But you can also take on even the most mundane of tasks. Want to make pies for twenty hours? There's an oven right over there, get baking. How about living an honest life as a blacksmith? Well, by golly, you can do it!

News: Somewhere (2010)

Here is the movie trailer for the feature film "Somewhere" directed by Sofia Coppola Here are 3 movie clips for the feature film "Somewhere" The weirdest thing about this film to me is that I actually happened to be at Stephen Dorff's house in Malibu when he got the call from Sofia about this film. I was there for a totally different project, but he was very excited. I think this film looks really great, when Sofia tackles stardom I think she really shines.

There are lots of simple "hack-like" fashion projects on the web, but kudos to the Glamourai for bringing Style into the equation. Her "Scarf-tan-ette" is surprisingly chic considering it's simplicity. Relatively uncomplicated to make, all you need is a couple vintage scarves, some chain, pins and a sewing machine. (The YSL sunglasses help the look as well.)
