The Perfect House Outfit

Lately I have been repeatedly asked the same question over and over. 'Where do you work?' or 'Where are you going?'
No where! I don't have a job. I wear what I wear on a daily basis! At home, I would love to look like this. It's similar to the other Linda evangelista picture I posted. Could be from the same shoot. The toweled up hair, full make-up, at home but still looking fantastic!! Reminds me of Sex and the City when Carrie wanted to be "Lovah-ready". There's something so romantic about always looking your best.

Healthy Romance That Let's You Breathe!!


This wall is at the Anthropology store on Regent St. in London. I can't wait to have one of my very own! Fresh oxygen and gorgeous foliage. It's almost as good as finding a flowery meadow in California except it's vertical and in your home!! Yay!

Love Letters of Great Men Vol. 1


Napoleon to Josephine

I wake filled with thoughts of you. Your portrait and the intoxicating evening which we spent yesterday have left my senses in turmoil. Sweet incomparable Josephine, what a strange effect you have on my heart! Are you angry? Do I see you looking sad? Are you worried? ... My soul aches with sorrow, and there can be no rest for your lover; but is there still more in store for me when, yielding to the profound feelings which overwhelm me, I draw from your lips, from your heart a love which consumes me with fire? Ah! it was last night that I fully realized how false an image of you your portrait gives!You are leaving at noon; I shall see you in three hours. Until then, mio dolce amor, a thousand kisses; but give me none in return, for they set my blood on fire.
-Bonaparte

Chris Weitz I'm Going to Kill You!!!


I can't believe he took over directing the New Moon Saga. I'm not sure what Summit was thinking!! The Golden Compass, Chris Wietz's, Weitz's, whatever, 'LIKE I GIVE A SHIT,' last movie, was a total FAIL. Why did they let him take over the Twilight Saga?
So I'm sure most of the people who love Twilight have already seen New Moon. I'm not really here to spoil anything for anyone I'm mostly just ranting on how crappy a job he did. I'm not going to lie, Twilight is cheesy, but Katherine Hardwick still did it successfully. Chris Weitz directed the film from the point of view of a guy who laughs at the books and thinks oh God, how gay is this? This is proven by the fact that there's a preview of the 4th film (sort of), where Alice talks about how she's seen the vision of Bella as a vampire in the future...do you know how this was depicted?
Edward is running in a forest, and from the right side of the shot, Bella comes running out of a bunch of trees in a floaty chiffon empire waist dress and flushed cheeks and joins him. OK. Floaty Chiffon dress with flushed cheeks = vampire? SHUT UP!!!!!!!
Can we fire him now? Should we start a petition to get him kicked off as director? Why did anyone think this was a good idea? It's a chick book. Why would you get some douche bag to take over this?

YAY FOR ME! BECAUSE...



1. This is my 101th post! I've actually not gotten so incredibly bored that I've abandoned this website altogether. A few years ago, this website would have been neon pink and built with one of those aol geocity, computer illiterate website builders. The letters would have been turquoise LOL.




2. I have had a disgusting couple of days because of my crazy neighbor. I am now accomplished and very important woman after filing civil harrassment order against her, restricting her crazy saggy titted (sorry for the profanity but she deserves every bit of it) racist S.O.B ass from ever coming near me and my family again. BITCH. A thousand curses to you. I would love to curse her worse than any roman has ever cursed another.




3. Am making some sort of progress on summer project and have decided to reprogram unconscious brain to focus and still have fun.




4. I am a believer in hope and the fact that I am a magical being, not of this human world and have been placed here on a celestial mission which I am partially sure has to do with creating beauty (good clothing, accessories, etc..etc...) which in turn generates happiness in its consumer which she/he passes on and so on and so on. I feel like a saint, no blasphemy intended. hehe. I just feel good!




5. I am obsessed with Arcade Fire right now. "Wake Up" is my life!!! It makes me want to run through some flower infested woods!!! I'm such a free spirit LOL.

Love Happens Sucks

Sometimes you don't realize how much you hate a movie until you sit down and write the review for it.

Love Happens
PG-13 (maybe G? Who the fuck cares, they only kiss once in the entire film)

Love happens or does it? If it were up to Jennifer Aniston and Aaron Eckhart to demonstrate this, it appears that it doesn’t. The film centers on the life of Burke Ryans (Aaron Eckhart), a self-help author whose expertise is overcoming the death of a loved one. Unbeknownst to his fans is the fact that though he is able to teach them how to deal with their sadness, he is unable to deal with his own. His knight in shining armor comes in the form of Eloise (Jennifer Aniston) whose presence forces him to come to terms with what he’s spent his life avoiding.

The trailer for the film basically explains the entire synopsis but the attitude of the film isn’t nearly as light-hearted as it would appear to be. Love Happens is a depressing and poorly written film disguised as a romantic comedy. Every moment of happiness is immediately foiled by the random surge of depression that just oozes from Burke Ryans. Sure he has a great smile and is fantastic at being charming; perhaps his character is suppose to be that way but it surely isn’t pleasant to watch. He mostly just comes off awkward when he’s not his public persona.

Even worse is the character of Eloise, pronounced E-loo-ise, whose quirkiness and free-spirited attitude is reflected in her physical surroundings but is absolutely unbelievable coming from Jennifer Aniston. Of all the annoying ways the writers have tried to make her interesting, the most annoying is the fact that she uses a lavender marker to write obscure words behind paintings at the hotel she provides floral arrangements for. Why she does this is never explained, it’s just written in to force an initial attraction to an otherwise boring woman. Why Jennifer Aniston was chosen to play the part of a “free-spirit” is a complete mystery. She is rigid and uptight despite the fact that she drives a live-action version of the mystery machine” from Scooby-Doo and does unpredictable things for Burke on their dates.

At this point, both the characters are boring, so maybe, just maybe they have a connection through their boringness. Unfortunately, even that is missing. Both Aniston and Eckhart get upstaged not only by their co-stars, Martin Sheen, Judy Greer, and Dan Fogler, they are also upstaged by a parrot. Yes, a parrot. It is the only part of the film where anything remotely happy happens.

Love Happens is actually only ten percent about the relationship between Burke and Eloise. Its mostly just about Burke and his internal struggle with awkwardness and not being able to handle his own issues. There is no love in love happens. Watch this film if you love extremely slow movies with a predictable plot, boring characters, and non-stop backdrops of hotel rooms, it’ll be the only love that happens in the screening room.

"I can't help but wonder"

Two of the designers from Louis Vuitton came to do a project with us early in the year. One of my research images included this picture of a Middle American bunny and I won't go into detail on what the rest of the research was about but basically I ended up with the idea for a woven sheer wire mesh with the LV monogram woven in, surrounded by a peeling colorful decaying leather.



1. research photo


2. my fabric sample illustration


3. Sample Louis Vuitton Bag Sketch

4. Love Magazine Issue 2, Louis Vuitton Bunny Ears, woven tulle Louis Vuitton Monogram

I have to say, its really cute and a job well done and maybe they didn't do it consciously but the fact that the designers came and did a project with us, and this came out afterwards kind of makes me wonder.....

Who Says You Don't Need Calculus In Day to Day Life?!

I hope some nerd who took calculus at school but ended up with a shitty bank job where he/she does nothing but count bills or do simple arithmetic all day gets the task of solving this equation. LOL. What is this guy's name? It looks like it says Pony Mr. Well Pony Mr, I think I'm in love with you. You're brilliant. If you were my boyfriend, I'd make you write me equations to solve for fun and to earn my affection!!

My Neighbor Is Getting Cursed Tonight


The crazy bitch who lives next door flipped out today because she was cranky and feeling sick, probably because she's dying, and our dogs were supposedly barking and disturbing her rest. Well mom and I were out walking for exercise; we must maintain our slim and youthful physiques, and she ran over to furiously ring the doorbell that we weren't there to answer. My sister happens to come home at the time when this happens and she runs up to my sister and starts ramming her body into my sister's shoulder and screaming that my sister hit her. LOL. Then she proceeds to call the cops and say, "OMG she hit me! She's wearing high heels and blue jeans!!" Then she says, "You better watch out for your dogs!"

That's when I flipped out. I was ready to fuck a bitch up. We've already put a curse in place. Its just like that show "Bewitched," with the crazy retired neighbor who has nothing better to do all day than to freak out and spy on people. Yes, we are witches. Too bad its modern day so she can't have us burned. Besides, as per Harry Potter, real witches can't really be burned anyway. We mostly just work our cute magic and get away with everything. HEHE!

Long Live Lacroix


This Peter Lindberg shot for Vogue of the Lacroix shirt is "so hot right now!"
So sad to say, my ready to wear version looks like shit when compared to the couture version.

Ouch! Poor Anna Wintour


This NYPost article is really harsh. I've seen September Issue, she's not really that horrible. Maybe she has that disease where you can't control yourself and just blab out whatever you're thinking....sometimes she does it with her face instead of her words...LOL. You get the point. Give her a break.

This Blog......

LOOKS LIKE HALLOWEEN!!! I wonder if I've suppressed my desire for it (since the celebration of it in London is not as huge) by manifesting it visually in cyberspace.

Good Karma for Me!!

I am a true Gryffindor. This is a proven fact now that I have done this deed.

Today upon arriving home, I look on the floor to see a house centipede. I will not attempt to post a picture of him as they are frightening to look upon and would ruin the beauty flow of this blog. Anyway, I found a cup and put it over him and basically left him for dead knowing my mother would destroy him in the morning. Then something happened to me. As I went back to my room, I felt an undeniable guilt....I judged him for his ugliness and not for his actual harm factor. So I decided I would do a good deed and set him free.

You might think oh whatever, people do this all the time but I don't think you understand. Getting in that close proximity to a live centipede is horrifying. Still, I did it....I was able to set him free.

Now I feel fantastic!!! Then I got a letter from tarot.com about how the full moon is affecting karmic order. Coincidence? I think not. I am righteous and brave. Gryffindor to the infinity power. PURE WIN.

Grace Coddington


Wishlist gift: Grace Coddington Thirty Years of Fashion at Vogue





A page from her book Catwalk Cats


Vogue Age Issue Shoot Inspired by Herself. AMAZING.


She seems to be one of the funniest and most talented women I've ever seen! Perhaps she's the new Diana Vreeland. A little bit nutty, and instead of an insane fondness for red, its for persian cats. I love that she has a book called "Catwalk Cats." Its too cute!!

My Newest Obsession

What is it about clans that make everything so much more awesome?


I was so happy to be close to a predator that my face turned into a pacman.



I don't even like kids but WOW, good picture. Its epic. Should be on a birthday card. Today, you are a man, now stop being a little bitch and hang out with some predators. YES!

THERE ARE NO WORDS TO EXPLAIN HOW COMPLETELY OUT OF MY FUCKING MIND I AM FOR PREDATORS.

Narcissa Malfoy = Daphne Guinness


I wish they would have just used Daphne instead, but perhaps she can't act. She is so amazing to look at.
The Harry Potter movie was a little bit crap actually. It lacked a lot of emotions...I didn't even cry when (SPOILER ALERT)

Too Late Bitches, I'm Prancing Away!! LOL


You ever have a crush on someone for a long while, then you decide to review it because its torturing you and realize that this person would never be able to give you the kind of romance, life, relationship, or love that even just one song, in my case, Chopin's Op. 64, could convey for me in the short amount of time that it plays?

All it takes is one picture of him with a random girl to know that its just not right. When a guy can make you feel insecure without even meaning to, you know he's not giving you enough.

Listen to some classical and forget about him. There's so much more out there waiting for me.

Thanks Fred (Chopin)!

2.55 Romance in a handbag

Who knew the 2.55 was so romantic? A compartment for love letters?? That's amazingggg. Chanel thinks of everything!!

The 2.55 handbag bears that particular name simply because it was originally issued in February 1955. Her features have all a piece of tale to tell. From the inside out:
• The lining - The lining’s brown color represents the color of the uniforms from the convent where she grew up.
• The inside compartment - there’s a zippered compartment at the inside of the front flap. That’s where Coco Chanel hid her love letters (from her lover at the time).
• The backside - there’s a back outside flap on the handbag – that’s where Ms Chanel stashed extra money.
• The shoulder strap – as I said before, Coco Chanel grew up in an convent, at the orphanage. The caretakers hold the keys at their waist dangling from the same type of chains as the 2.55 shoulder strap chains.
• The front lock – the 2.55 front lock is different from the classic double CC logo. It’s logo is called “the Mademoiselle Lock” (because Ms Chanel was never married)

I WANT TO PET YOU

Oh the sleekness of your sensual leather and delicate dangling chains. Look at your tiny waist and small armholes. Those broad shoulders are powerful but still feminine. You're so irresistable. I'd like to take you out for Valentine's day and shower you with kisses. Imagine if you were mine. I'd treat you like a queen and wear you with the amazon.com three wolves shirt. Sexyyyyyyyyy...........

Sharing a Birthday with Michael's Death

Its not necessarily a bad thing. We laughed; we mourned; we lip synced to 'Remember the Time'. Still, it was a damn good soiree. We love you Michael!!



The spread. Pink peonies, chocolate cake, tuna tartare, tea sandwiches, pico de gallo (sp?) with scallops and assorted goodies, love. LOL <3

Classic asian lucky cat pose.


Birthday Girl and Boy. We won't age anymore now because Michael's death has stopped time.


Self-timed Group photo. Self explanatory really. You can see how awesome we are. This is the future of fashion + a Hollywood starlet in the making.



Home girls, cousins, call us what you will. We're O.G and we will cut you.
Special thanks to my BFF Veronica for making pretty sandos and helping plan the party, Shaun Samson for being my birthmate, and all the other BFFs who celebrated with us and made the night as f'ing amazing as it was.
P.S. I'll admit, my outfit could have been a hell of a lot better but I didn't have time to shop. So sue me.

Breakfast at Chanel



How amazing would it be if you were a pro-tennis player sponsored by Chanel?!!



Chanel PHONE.



Oh you are so hot. I'd love to carry you around and smack people with you. P.S. Yes that ugly writing on the bottom corner is mortifying, at least its a real bag. LOL.




Ahhh....backpacks...so much more comfortable than shoulder bags. Sometimes kind of stupid looking when you run, but it'd be ok with this baby. Its like Stephanie in Full House used to say when she touched Uncle Jesse, "ZZZZZZZ Ouch!! The man is hot!!" That's what I'd say if I touched this bad boy.

I'm watching Breakfast at Tiffanys right now. I'd rather have Breakfast at Chanel so I decided to reward myself with a visual smorgasborg of Chanel goodness.


I thought I was over you but I was wrong


I still totally have a crush on you you delightful little darling!! Can I have you for my birthday?

So You Want Your Cake and You Want to Eat It Too


I got to thinking about that phrase "You want your cake and you want to eat it too..." Who made this phrase up? You're an idiot. Why would you make that a bad thing? Why would I want cake if I didn't want to eat it? STUPID.
