The Kardashians Close 'Smooch'
Kourtney Kardashian has announced on her official blog that her family is closing 'Smooch' after 6 years of business.
My mom and I opened our children’s clothing boutique Smooch six years ago. My grandmother has had a children’s boutique in LaJolla for 30 years now, and it was always a dream of my mom’s and mine to have a store of our own. I used to work in the store all day, every day, stay hours after closing and was obsessed with it…Smooch was my baby! The energy and love I put into the store truly paid off and in a weird way, the store really helped me deal with my father’s death…I put my feelings into the store!
After thinking about it long and hard, we have decided to close Smooch. This does make me sad, but I also know that I don’t have the time (especially now that I will have my baby boy to take care of) that the store deserves to be the Smooch that we created. It is just not the same without me and my mom there to run it.
The reality star has some good news though for all of you savvy shoppers.
That being said, almost everything in Smooch is now half off! All of the adorable furniture and accessories are for sale as well. Happy shopping!! You can always call the store for assistance (818) 222-4211. And you never know what can happen, maybe we will open a Dash kids one day if I am missing it! And for now, the Smooch website has a few of our best items that we will keep up… www.smoochkids.com.
If you live in the area, get over there right away! Half off is a great deal. ;)

It sounds like she really enjoyed herself the first time. Here's what she tweeted after her first concert:
Wembley Arena. London. How can I tell you in 140 characters how much I loved being with you tonight?
And with Taylor booking a second date, it sounds like the love is mutual :)

Jason Schwartzman Has A Great Outlook On Life
Jason Schwartzman can find joy in cleaning.
The ‘Darjeeling Limited’ actor always tries to look for positive aspects to everything he does, even mundane daily chores, but admits it is sometimes a struggle.
"You can be cleaning your house and all of the sudden get an exhilarating feeling. When I'm walking my dog and he does something beautiful – it's all about finding these little pockets of heat in the world. But it's hard. It's like mining for gold."
The 29-year-old star says he has always been a positive person, even when having problems in his youth.
Speaking about the similarities between himself and Ash, the young fox cub son of the titular character he voices in animated movie ‘Fantastic Mr. Fox’, Jason added to USA Today newspaper:
"I related to that character. I didn't hit a growth spurt until a little bit later. I was an athlete, but I would have loved to have been a better athlete. I liked girls who typically liked someone else I knew.
"My dad was a little bit different. He really loved me. I also was different because I tried not to get grumpy."
Man, I wish I could find joy in cleaning and walking the dog. Something I need to start working on apparently! :) What's your attitude towards mundane chores? Do you try to find the positive in everything? Or do you just get done what needs to get done?

Colin Farrell And Girlfriend Visit Mexico
Colin Farrell and his girlfriend Alicja Bachieda were seen boarding a plane at LAX and heading out to a romantic holiday in Mexico. Once they landed, the pair quickly got into their bathing suits and enjoyed the warm waters.
Colin and Alicja were also seen grabbing a bite to eat on their resort's deck. So beautiful! Looks like Colin brought a book to the table to read. This vacation is all about peace and relaxation. I'm sure Colin isn't thrilled the paps found out.
