Winter Cozy

 Winter Cozy

Next Best

The top featured in Avon Lady - Winter Cozy is no longer available.  With that said, my next best suggestion would be the Retail Therapy Hoodie.

2-Pack Everyday Leggings

The boots featured in Avon Lady - Winter Cozy are no longer available, so my next best suggestion is the classic sneaker with two style option to choose from -

The tie dye Printed Spring Sneakers Size is available in 6M and 11M.

The stripe Printed Spring Sneakers Size is available in 6M and 11M.

The watch featured in Avon Lady - Winter Cozy is no longer available.  With that said, explore the full collection of watches on Avon.

Avon Lady - Winter Cozy

Some time ago fashion was in style on Set List.  The official music video for "Girl Panic!" was inspiring.  However, the interest in fashion eased and I dropped the subject.  Yet now, I feel compelled to return to my in style looks on Set List.

And so in this edition of Wednesday In Style, I am offering a mini series featuring Avon products.  

Avon.  I am thrilled to say that yes I am an Independent Sales Representative.  Follow my eStore link under Lauren's Top Links.

In this second edition of Avon Lady, I am opting for winter cozy.  In the steamy hot summer months, may "Winter Cozy" inspire the relief of colder weather and relief from the miserable heat index.

Classic Versus Tuesday

Versus Tuesday began with a drum cover and a song.  Versus Tuesday later became Instrumental Versus Tuesday.  Somewhere in between and to now, I have Classic Versus Tuesday - song versus song.

In this classic Versus Tuesday, I am comparing "Ordinary World" recorded and "Ordinary World" performed live.

If you are a Duran Duran fan, which would you choose as your favorite version?

In this edition of Set List Reader's Choice, your top favorite is:

Classic Versus Tuesday

As a refresher, Classic Versus Tuesday featured "Eminence Front" and "Where the Streets Have No. Name."  The reason behind the two in the versus theme is the anticipation of the actual performance, whether instrumental anticipation or newsworthy anticipation.  Piqued intrigue best defines both.

In this post, I thought I would share a brief background behind both songs.

The Who

"Eminence Front"

- Written and performed by Pete Townshend

- 6th track on It's Hard (1982)

- No. 68 on Billboard Hot 100

Reception -

- "..."Eminence Front" as the album's high point..."

- "Eminence Front" as the only song on it (It's Hard) that he felt was worthy of being released." - Roger Daltrey

(Wikipedia)

U2

"Where the Streets Have No Name"

- First track on The Joshua Tree (1987)

- Third single to be released

- No. 13 in the U.S. ... No. 14 in Canada ... No. 10 in the Netherlands ... No. 4 in the UK ... No. 1 in Ireland

- Certified Silver in the UK

- Staple in concert performances

- Grammy Award for Best Performance Music Video

- Most popular song from the album

Classic Versus Tuesday

Versus Tuesday began with a drum cover and a song.  Versus Tuesday later became instrumental Versus Tuesday.  Somewhere in between and to now, I have Classic Versus Tuesday - song versus song.

In this classic Versus Tuesday, I am comparing two songs as recorded on unique and intriguing music videos.  Both will say the rest of it.  Enjoy the performances below.

"Eminence Front"

The Who

"Where The Streets Have No Name"
