get your nails did

Wine and Dine Me

Another success brought to you by Vintage 415 marketing. If you happen to be around San Francisco's Financial District and in search of wonderful food and good vibrations..I urge you to head to Taverna Aventine. Wonderful atmosphere, down to earth staff and a melt your mouth menu. The oysters are to die for! I would have to say the best feature of Aventine is its bottom floor/cellar which hosts private alcohol lockers. (can I have one for Christmas please?) The decor is reminiscent of old tuscany and is lust at first sight...check it!

Like I said...

6 days! Get your ass out and VOTE SON!

Sexual Political

I’ve always been a democrat & hated a red domination
For the last 8 years its been nothing but inflation.
Our dollar ain’t shit what happened to the Gold Standard,
We gotta wear Obama pins on our phone lanyard.
I’ve always been blue, not green nor red,
So when we’re dating please don’t bring up politics in bed.
I can respect your views you’re entitled to an opinion
But you sound like McCain or some ignorant West Virginian.
Sex & politics are two different subjects
So please keep the two separate as completely different objects.
I am all about free trade, and taxation on the rich
So don’t whisper in my ear about that stupid Palin bitch.
You told me I have potential to be your first lady
But I won’t turn republican just to be your baby.
I’m tired of the foreplay accompanied by updates on the election
You’re about to get cut so I can move to my next selection.
Everything grooves, except our political belief
When the presidential race is over will there be a sigh of relief?
No matter who wins, the end of the election won’t fix
The fact that sex & politics is something that just doesn’t mix.

Quote of the day

“You can shed tears that he is gone,
or you can smile because he has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that he'll come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all he's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see him,
or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember him only that he is gone,
or you can cherish his memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind,
be empty and turn your back.
Or you can do what he'd want:
smile, open your eyes, love and go on."

Still a Favorite

Thierry Le Goues shot this beautiful spread for Hermes months a go, and it's still stuck with me. I would LOVE to do a shoot like this...absolutely stunning.

makeup & condoms?

Nars has come out with something called "the safer set" benefiting Amfar programs to promote global safe sex. a little shocking but nonetheless, for a good cause. so if your friend asks for a cheek highlighter this christmas, you should definitely pick up this goodie & get her what she wants and a little extra ;)

FCUK

French Connection had a release party in the heart of San Francisco last Thursday night to release their new line of men's suits. The suits were sexy & stylish. I went straight after I had a fashion show, so don't mind my hair!

Sorry!

I have had one hell of a week so I'm sorry for the lack of posts..but I'm back at it today! Glad everybody enjoyed Broken House & Steezy Bitch! Stay tuned folks...

Steezy Bitch

Don’t you wish you had a steezy bitch
One that could rock the heels and handle the whip.
A powerful female with a smile that shines
With rings that sparkle like her diamond eyes.
She’s got a bad fuckin attitude but its part of her charm
She can handle herself when you’re out at the club, she socializing she don’t need your arm!
She can keep her composure, calm, cool, and collected,
But if you cross her one time you gon feel rejected.
She pay her own bills and drive her own wheels
She wears manolo’s, louboutin’s, or some bangin chanel heels.
She cusses, throws up the middle finger, tough on the outside
She’s a brat, a smart ass, but soft on the inside.
She’s the only girl you know that when she falls asleep
She looks the same the next day, now that’s a girl to keep.
The type of girl you wanna treat like a million dollar bill,
Cuz when she comes out the shower, naked, she still dressed to kill.
She gonna make you wanna re-write the Constitution
But like I said, if you fuck up, there will be no restitution.
She’s the type of girl you could lose your pride to,
The type that messes with your head, so you don’t know what to do.
Many would drop her because they don’t know how to treat her,
But you can’t be friends and go back to how they were.
When you meet this type of bitch you’re gonna be poppin champagne,
Celebratin, rejoycin, like you won the championship game.
So when you meet a steezy bitch, recognize your match
Things will take off to cloud 9, sit back & watch.

We all need a good laugh sometimes

And seriously, this video is hilarious, just please, watch it all the way through, I promise the pay off will be worth it

a man of style

Zac Posen @ Chanel Mobile Art Opening, he wore this number. Gold Louis Vuitton jacket, paired with a Chanel scarf, and Tom Ford pants...doesn't get much better than this...shout out to FRESH! I think you need this jacket...

I guess we can count on Palin to help this economy

It has been reported that since Palin was signed on as McCain's running mate back in September she increased her spending and has been known to drop $40,000+ at Saks & Neimans for clothes and accessories, and to date has spent $150,000. No matter how hard she tries she will NEVER top Michelle Obama. Now Obama, she can rock H&M and still top Palin. Let's face it, Michelle Obama is a prime candidate to be the next Jackie O.

Broken House

(This poem was written for all those people out there who have finally gotten over that one that stuck with them a little too long)

Woke up today with a smile on my face
Not because of you, but for the next that will take your place.
Finally hit my breaking point and had enough of your shit
Ready to forget you, move on, and quit.
You bought the house, but couldn’t maintain it
Now the house is crumbling and falling to bits.
Your lies were clever and filled with detail,
But you forgot one thing, the cleverest lies have no detail.
There is no honesty, truth, or communication
And that’s why there is you, and me, but no relation.
The next time I see you I’m gonna wanna kiss you, hug you, and hold you
But I’m gonna keep my distance, gotta keep my cool.
Because everytime I talk to you your words sound good, they really really do.
But I got to do whats right for me, not what feels good to you.
I’m going to appreciate what we had every single day,
But things won’t get better in the future if they continue this way.
The house is broken, dirty, and demolished,
It’s done, finito, no chance to be polished.
I respect you, and hope the feeling is returned,
So let me be, before we crash and burn.
This is no longer your property, so please no trespassing.

my heart goes out to kanye <3

Kanye West's new single "Coldest Winter" is about his mother. Kanye is on a mad hype right now. The new beats, and lyrics are so good.

Kanye West - Coldest Winter Lyrics :-
On lonely nights I start to fade
(On lonely nights I start to fade)
Her love is a thousand miles away
(Her love is a thousand miles away)
Memories made in the coldest winter
Good bye my friend will I never love again

Memories made in the coldest winter

Its 4am and I cant sleep
(Its 4am and I cant sleep)
Her love is all that I can see
(Her love is all that I can see)
Memories made in the coldest winter
Good bye my friend will I ever love again

Memories made in the coldest winter
Winter, winter


Good bye my friend will I ever love again
Good bye my friend will I ever love again
Good bye my friend will I ever love again
Good bye my friend will I ever love again

If spring could take the snow away
(If spring could take the snow away)
It melt away all of our mistakes
(It melt away all of our mistakes)
Memories made in the coldest winter
Good bye my friend will I ever love again

Never Again....

I would definitely walk through the rain in these

A man of Struggle

He came from nothing
Made nothing into something
He came from the streets
A man who knows about struggle
His eyes have seen more than I’ll ever know
His heart has felt more pain than I’ll ever feel
He used to be nobody
But now he’s somebody
A man that looks less than average
But was at the top of his class
I like a man who’s got a story to tell
And if it ain’t him talkin, his tatts could do it for him
He’s the man on the streets
Always surrounded by a crowd
Always trying to please
But theres still something not found.
When the glitter has come down
And the lights are turned off
Whos there at the end of the day
To help you through your struggles?
There may be a bitch in you bed
But not a soul in your heart
Only women who want something
Flood your inbox.
You’re a smart man
That’s what got you to the top
But know there are females
Who can get you even higher.
Your struggles have been tough
But theyre meant to be shared,
There’s a woman out there
That will make it less rough.
That woman could be me
But as of now I’m going through a struggle
Not only with you but with myself
and where are you?
No where to be found.
I told you I liked a man who came from nothing
But there’s no way I can fall for the stranger you’ve become.
It must be lonely at the top,
No where to go from here.

Excerpt

"I want to be courted by the truth. Let the stories that are telling our lives spin out in long multicolored threads. Don't tell me too much too soon. Don't hide anything. Tell the tales of your heart and offer them like perfect pearls coming up from the depths of the sea to be strung together, each gently clicking against the other, luminous and iridescent as they roll out of the moistness. Ten years from now I want to hear a story of your childhood I have never heard before and know the delight and ongoing awe of seeing each other for the first time, again and again. Give me each picture slowly, so I can sit with it and find you, and the glimpses of me, and the foreshadows of us there in the details. I want to talk in seamless conversation all night long and find ourselves able to hold the silence together for days, our intimacy sharpened by shared solitude."

Women have all the fun

So Marc Jacobs wore a pair of high heels made by Rick Owens to his show in Paris. People thought that he was wearing them to find out what type of pain women suffer from, from wearing them. He not only said that it wasn't bad, and that he was able to achieve the look he was trying to accomplish...also came to say this OH SO true quote, "I like wearing skirts and high heels and stuff like that. I don't see it in a way that it's like women suffering. I see it in a way it's like women get to have all the fun." That's right guys...it's a lot of fun up there...I should know

Quote of the Day

"Remember what it used to be like? You couldn't exactly be Venus Williams or a Spice Girl and be in capital S Society. You know who opened up society more than anyone? Anna Wintour. She made fashion not about rich people, but about talented people. It isn't a race, it isn't a religion, it is a meritocracy and Anna started giving dinners for people like that, especially The Costume Institute fundraiser every spring." - Isaac Mizrahi

Please come to San Francisco....

Chanel's mobile art exhibit, designed by Zaha Hadid will be touching down in New York this month! It takes up 2,297 square meters and will take about 3 weeks to assemble. I would give anything to get inside the beautiful attraction. Said that the works contributed, "explore the notion of the handbag as a cultural symbol, often with a dash of irreverance." Chanel paid Rumsey Playfield in Central Park a 7 figure sum plus a $400,000 usage fee...worth every penny. IT will be open October 20- November 9....if you're in the area, take the trip to Central Park.

86 them

It’s been a minute since I wrote about relationships. Over the last few weeks I got to thinking about the term “abandonment.” As one of my great friends once said, “abandon those who abandon you, the only person you should never abandon, is yourself.” This is oh so true. If the person you are dating decided to peace out on you, then you should do the same. I was stumbling on the internet and came across a website www.gethimback.net …and thought this is pathetic! An entire website for women and how to “get him back.” Now you know that there is NO website www.getherback.com . Come on now! Ladies, when the relationship is done, let it be done, don’t sit around and waste your time on how to get him back. It is not a good look. Move on, because you better believe that if he/she's not calling you, they're calling somebody else.

I'm a vote OBAMA way
