iCiNG. Like a party with magazines, thick black eyeliner, cupcakes and gin. And the Velvet Underground, maybe? And glitter. Reading iCiNG makes me all squealy and gets me out my not-infrequent funks these last couple of weeks. It's run by Gala Darling, an adorable badass. Firstly, that is her legal name--she chose it herself. (Having legally changed my name at the age of 22, I have a special soft spot for others who do this.) Secondly, she's kind of all over the place--fashion! health! self-image! travel! boys! fun!--which is always a million times more interesting than keeping with the same theme all the time. Thirdly, and perhaps most important, it would be all too easy for this type of site to go horribly awry. But owing primarily to the balance of frippery, common sense and a genuine interest in other people, Miss Gala's iCiNG is a delight.

This magic, right here. As you may or may not know, Mr. Eastwood enjoys a rather exalted status in my household (or would, were he ever to visit). I think this collection of all things Eastwood is a damn fine thing. Have a look at this set of three teaser designs from a UK press sheet for A Fistful of Dollars.



Also, apparently he was a badass even as an infant.

I just soiled my diaper. Feelin' lucky, punk?
Yeah, sorry, I just couldn't help myself.

...just checked out iCiNg and loved it! Thanks for sharing :). I love that shirt featured on the most recent post!
It's so much fun, isn't it? Perfect for a magazine junkie like me. Particularly as all my faves are folding. :/
I was wondering what drop.io was. Now I know. Thanks.
