I DIE

Gorg


Stella McCartney Spring 2010 Shades are fabulous! Love the shape

This really freaks me out


This is Victoria Beckham's RTW Fall 2009 campaign video...and it really freaks me the fuck out. Like at first I thought it was cool & different, but then I hit the 20 second mark and the creeking of the swings and the in syncness just got to me. I don't know, people might like it.

First I'll do it in the park...then after dark

V #61







Kate Moss and some gypsies

This is such a sick clock


This would make it really easy to tell time. I could use this...

Supreme Fall 2009


Valentino


I love the simple elegance of a Valentino accessory. :)

30 Fun Things To Do When Driving

1. Vary your vehicle’s speed inversely with the speed limit.
2. Roll down your windows and blast talk radio. Attempt to headbang.
3. At stop lights, eye the person in the next car suspiciously. With a look of fear, lock your doors.
4. Two words: Chicken suit.
5. Write the words “Help me” on your back window in red paint. The more it looks like blood, the better.
6. Have conversations, looking periodically at the passenger seat, when driving alone.
7. Laugh a lot. A whole lot.
8. Stop at the green lights.
9. Go at the red ones.
10. Occasionally wave a stuffed animal/troll doll/Barbie out your window or sunroof. Feel free to make it dance.
11. Eat food that requires silverware.
12. Pass cars, then drive very slowly.
13. Sing without having the radio on.
14. Honk frequently without motivation.
15. Wave at people often. If they wave back, offer an angry look and an obscene gesture.
16. Ask people for Grey Poupon.
17. Let pedestrians know who’s boss.
18. Look behind you frequently, with a very paranoid look.
19. Restart your car at every stop light.
20. Hang numerous car-fresheners in the rear-view mirror. Talk to them, stroking them lovingly.
21. Lob burning things in the windows of smokers who throw their butts out the window.
22. Keep at least five cats in the car.
23. Root (cheer, not snuffle in the mud) for firetrucks.
27. Stop and collect roadkill.
28. Stop and pray to roadkill.
29. Throw Spam.
30. Get in the fast lane and gradually … slow … down … to a stop. then get out and watch the cars. Throw Spam at them.
31. Chinese Firedrill. Get at least 2 people in a car (the more the better) when the light turns red everyone get out and run around the car and yell “fire, fire!” Then get back in the car but switch drivers. Then drive off when the light turns green and act like nothing happened. (Called Chinese Fire Drill because China is so crowded that there is no place to run in a fire. So you have to get back in.)

Happy Birthday Crystal!


This post is dedicated to my best friend & business partner, Crystal. I still remember our first conversation...I have my sister & brothers birthday tattooed on my ankle, and one day at work, Crystal walks up to me and asks "Why do you have my birthday tattooed on your ankle?" This was the first of many hilarious conversations with Crystal. This girl reminds to take time out in my busy day and smile. Happy birthday Crys...love you mucho!



Happy Birthday Booger!


This post is dedicated to my beautiful sister Honore. It is her birthday today. Although her and I don't always see eye-to-eye, we have a bond that nothing can break. I love her to pieces, and on this day, nothing would make me happier than being with her. So, my dearest booger, happy birthday from San Francisco! I love you & I hope your birthday is fabulous!

Let's Get There


Well at least that's what I'm going to do

Gotta Show Love LA's Way

Apparently my vacation from all technological devices has taken a toll on my cyber support for the homies. I've already posted about this talented dude, and I still have the utmost belief in him. If you haven't heard about Skeme, you will soon. I know I'm late with this, but you know how the saying goes...

R.I.P. Aaliyah



Sorry to load y'all with so many videos, but today is the anniversary of Aaliyah's death. She passed on August 25th 2001 in a fatal plane crash. Not only was Aaliyah a talented singer and actress but she paved the way for many women. She wasn't the typical starlet. She spoke the words that many didn't have the courage to say, and wore the things women dare not to wear. Not only that, but as a dancer, I thoroughly think that Aaliyah is one of the few musicians where music flows through her veins. Her dancing is effortless yet extremely sexy. I have the upmost respect for this woman. So I would like to pay tribute to her by sharing with you, my favorite Aaliyah videos.







Rumor has it...

that LVMH may not only be selling Donna Karen, but also Moët Hennessy all for the possibility of adding Hermès to the LVMH family.

I guess we'll just have to wait this rumor out.

I've been patiently waiting & anticipating


The documentary is set to air Monday, September 1st at 10pm on the Sundance Channel.

RICHARD AVEDON Photographs 1946-2004


Dovima with Elephants, Evening Dress by Dior, Cirque d'Hiver, Paris, 1955
Whether photographing politicians, artists, writers, fashion models, or movie stars, Richard Avedon revolutionized the genre of portraiture. He rejected conventional stiff-and-staid poses and instead captured both motion and emotion in the faces of his subjects, often encapsulating their intrigue in a single charged moment. SFMOMA is proud to be the only U.S. venue for this retrospective that spans the artist's remarkable career. Featuring more than 200 photographs along with a selection of vintage magazines, the exhibition presents work spanning Avedon's entire career, from his earliest street scenes to his breakthrough 1950s Paris fashion pictures and the iconic celebrity portraits that brought him world renown. This in-depth retrospective reveals Avedon's singular ability to blur the lines between photojournalism, fashion photography, and fine art.
NOW at the SFMOMA until November 29 2009.

These kinda remind me of Timb's but I don't care


DSQUARED2 Shearling Booties $795

These will be perfect for when the snow starts to fall, and I travel north to our condo in Tahoe.

Great minds think alike?

About a month & a half a go, a friend and i went in to a fabric store...I came across a beautiful bag of multicolored feathers and totally got inspired to make a mini skirt with them. A very select few have actually seen this skirt because it is hanging in my bedroom, still yet to be completed & debuted. All i need to do is move my fit mannequin into my apartment (something i've been procrastinating to do for the last year, but it would definitely make my designing easier. After all its a little difficult to sew something on yourself lol). Anyhow...I am completely thrilled with how everything looks and has turned out thus far...

And THEN today, I was looking for some inspiration and I came across Peter Som's Fall 2008 runway show. I SWEAR I did NOT see this photo or that dress until today. And it completely blew my mind that I basically recreated a skirt already done by Peter Som, but in a shorter, much shorter version, and didn't even know it! If I had known, I totally would have done a DIY post.

Oh well, I guess I'm just going to have to say that great minds think alike!

Now this is 1 workout that I am A-OK with!


In honor of the 2nd season premiere of The Rachel Zoe Project (I was really skeptical about this show at first until I watched it and it is so entertaining: guilty pleasure #456,987,282 lol) V Magazine featured this spread in their September issue styled by the fabulously talented Rachel Zoe. Btw, have you ever worked out in heels? It's super hard, but it gives your legs and calves a great workout ;)

Let out your inner Geek


It's that time again for me to help y'all out. Truth: We are all on our cellphones more often than any other electronic device. And there have been so many times that all my girls are over and we all have our blackberries thrown on the table and none of us knows who's phone is who's until we light up the screen. There is nothing more that I hate in the world is to be just like everyone else. So I found a solution to my problem...Accessory Geeks. They've got basic stuff, girly stuff, and oh so practical stuff, to keep your connection to the world out of harms way. Here were a few of my fav finds:
......
Now I'm a fan of my black BB case, but I'm also a big fan of things that sparkle...

Do you ever have your phone on you, and whether or not you're texting/emailing or it's sitting on the table and the phone starts to ring and you can see people creepin on your phone? Well I've not only had that happen to me, but I've also seen people do it. Well this next 1 will definitely protect your privacy...I saw this on my cousin's phone a few months a go and I thought it was genius.

I absolutely adore the spearmint green iphone case, if I had an iphone I would definitely have this wrapped around it...

There are hundreds of other accessories and such on their website for all different types of phones. So if you're interested in stepping your phone game up & personalizing your most prized possession, click here.
Also if y'all love this kinda stuff as much as I do, follow them on twitter so you stay AHEAD of the game.

SMH

Well last night, Heidi Pratt (Montag?) performed her stupid song "Body Language" at the Miss Universe 2009 pageant. To kick off this post, let start by noting how similar her outfit was to Britney Spears 2000 VMA performance of "Oops I did it again."


Secondly, I don't know who told Heidi that it would be a great idea to dance all around the stage, but whoever it is that told her, obviously didn't have her best interest at heart. It makes my ears hurt to hear her sing, and my eyes hurt because she can't stay in one place at one time...girlfriend literally bounces around all over the stage.

New Job...New Outfit

I recently got a new job...which means I need new work clothes...I find these two to be a perfect combo for a day on the job.

Alice + Olivia

Christian Louboutin

It's important to have your sense of style & work ethic balance out ;)
