This commercial has been playing for a couple of months and I have to say that I still love it as much as I did when I saw it the first time. A, she’s beautiful and perhaps the only woman I’ve ever seen who can pull off frosted green eyeshadow. B, I love the message, “goofy is sexy” (for obvious reasons). And C, the song makes me clinch my fists and roll my shoulders to the beat a la Big Willie Style…that’s Will Smith for those of you who didn’t spend the 90’s gettin’ jiggy with it.
Enjoy!

Chris and I in the Sahara, 2011. I tried to find a picture of me with a kid to show how much I like them but I don't have any. But still, do I honestly look like a woman with no income and no kids? Wait, don't answer that!
I realize the title of this post suggests that I’m either pregnant or I’ve gotten a job… sorry mom.
So the blog has been talking to me and I’m feeling that “NINK” isn’t really representative of who I am so I’ve decided to finally purchase the domain for “Spice Jones” and switch everything over to a name that truly says “me” (har har har). Hey, finally something positive about not having followers! Just in case you’re wondering, my name really is Spice Jones… Sunday Spice Jones to be exact.

How fabulous is the face slap?! I’m one of those Sophia Loren types who wants women to still be able to slap rude men across the face. Did I type that out loud? Ooops! I absolutely love the guy’s shocked expression after she whacks the living daylights out of him for giving a double take on her long and lean tires… as if she was the most beautiful calculator he’d ever seen.
But seriously, who can blame him? Even I’m willing to admit that I can’t take my eyes off of this woman. Seeing her and the way she’s dressed has done more for my fitness resolutions then all of Rodney Yee’s Yoga tapes combined! And doesn’t it make so much more sense to have a High Fashion Italian Vixen in a Fiat commercial then JLo?
In all seriousness, from the casting to the script to the wardrobe to the look and feel of the entire spot, this is possibly an all time favorite for me!
Speaking of Italian Vixens, here’s a little O-mage (Homage) to the most beautiful woman on earth!

Imagine trying to wrangle the person Marshall Neilan is describing and you have 18+ years of my life. I’m not going to lie, this is seriously a fun person to be around but at the same time trying to get the work done pretty much BLOWS!
