Oligo Mixed Tape: NY Fashion Week

Oligo Mixed Tape: Love Songs
January 30, 2009
Love is in air with Valentine’s day just around the corner. This week Oligoville has been all about kindness and love starting with our great string ring giveaway. There is still time to sign up for that if you havent already. Then we featured a gorgeous red dress with a 50’s flair which inspired our closet remix article spotlighting the beautiful silver screen fashions of Oscar nominated film, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. So why stop there? I wanted to finish this week off with some songs that will keep all of you love birds out there thinking about your special someone. Its also a great time to start planning for Valentine’s Day. *hint *hint ( I’m talking to all of you forgetful guys out there..dont blow it.) Enjoy!

Whether you resolved to stop smoking, stop procrastinating or loose some of those extra pounds, here is some music that will add a skip to your step, a smile to your face and keep you focused. One of my favorite quotes, usually said in some strange accent, comes from any of the Adam Sandler movies and that is, “You can do it!”
