my music mania

whoa, i miss breanne you know? i just want to be in print heaven in the pvd sometimes. luckily when i'm not there bangin' out celeb tote bags i get to work on videos. this week i am rocking out with gogol bordello, strange concept but fun energy and a whole but load of extras so a new challenge for sure.

anyway, grant, the director and i were stoked to find out that the first vid we all did together just made it onto mtvu!

check it out!

i won't get out of bed for less than 10k.

"Resort wear."

Left (one of my all time favez) and middle are Cavalli from a couple of years ago and the right is Gucci 08 (though it totally screams charlotte park avenue princess to me). Sometimes I feel like I'm the biggest fashion prude baby. Where is the Louis Vuitton? And Marni? Plus Missoni won't load. Guh. Fashion week is the ultimate for procrastinating. I'm exhausted by it yet can't stop looking. Oh, but I really love Vivienne Westwood's collection (ahem, houndstooth and digi patterns). Its quirky and weird and honest; one of the more wearable lines I've seen. House of Blaholland. I'll put that one out there just for his knits and sense of color. OK, I think I'm done and shall retire to thesis land for a bit.

Wait, Mr. Dior Coutureface?
I need a job.

slim aarons (i'm at the BEACH!)

I love his beach and resort photographs, they make me want to wear only navy blue and kelly green. And everything else. MIAMISPRINGBREAK!?! N/S and domino have used and published his stuff (n/s quite a bit) and there's a ton more here. A couple of my picks:


I'm looking at a bunch of "resort" wear, you know... Gucci, Cavalli, I'd totally wear to the beach. In my quest I found one of my favorite Cavalli dresses EVER, which I'll post later.

soft and pretty.

sass

i am loving sass & bide this season. i want to curate my whole look for transitional winter to spring around PVC Military Romance. i've got my work cut our for me considering my whole wardrobe looks like i dragged it out of the dumpster behind the set of Charlie's Angles: The Later Years. Anyway, one can hope right?

falling in and out of love

i really do fall in and out of love with the 80s from month to month. well, i'm back in it for a few really good reasons: nagel.



the 80s inspired fall season of house of holland (fashion boner):




and of course the most obvious one:



duh squared.

forest objects.

jus sayin'

"Interesting."
That's all.



PS: Topshop in NYC

i heart working for i heart

so i've been interning (it sounds worse than it is, its like free business spying for fun) for jill at iheart. she is so cool, kinda my hero, creating a successful, creative thriving business with little help. she got an amazing eye for whats out there and searches out different price points for a wide variety of shoppers. she carries some of my favorite designers, eley kishimoto, lover.. and introduced me to some brand new ones like pam (perks and mini) which i spent all day fit modeling (jamming myself into a size too small, down right cute stuff) the fall line, what a job!

anyway, her on-line store should be up soon so i'll post that as asap as possible. i can't wait to open our glorious store. its going to be amazing!

hey, BABY... you are bizarre.

I'm on my second cup of coffee, clicking through fashion blergs on nymag. The Top 100 Fab looks, which readers poll in on, totally bore me though I'm not surprised. What's super neat is that you can browse various "details" which document some of the designer's accessories. But I'm not posting to give a running commentary / walking tour of the site. Olivia and I were just ijazzing after I sent her a detail photo of marc by marc bag:



I won't post any photos, you can see for yourselves.

Stargate.
Replicant.
Jackie O.

ruminate.

I've been looking forward to Eley Kishimoto's new line the most lately. They always do so much with color and pattern - lovelovelove. However, I have to say that this fall line is a little dissapointing, but maybs my hopes were a little too high. Some of my favez (and I'm thinking bottom left including hat for graduation):

more fall prints.

Tibi, Temperley


Matthew Williamson, Rebecca Taylor
(my favorite shows so far, along with tibi)

The Temperley dress on top reminds me of an elongated ikat version of this.

i'm in yr webspace, takin up yr bandwidth.

I happened to see and pick up the current issue of the PVD Phoenix at the grocery a couple days ago. What caught my eye was the Hello Kitty illustration on the cover - GUN GO BOOM! The word cute probs comes out of my mouth dozens of times a day / week / whathaveyou but I've been thinking more and more about its meaning. Guh = thesis baby. The article is not the most innovative piece of journalism but the four page spread is interesting with lolcats/speak all over the place; its funny to see it all in print. (However it did remind me to look up Robert Thompson, the pop culture guru @ Syracuse. Crazy, I almost went to Syracuse)

THE CUTENESS SURGE

Watch the video on mute!

the oneone update.

I met the mystery Salvor gal tonight! One of my students was printing a mass of transparencies for a final project and she came to visit. Alex is a student at RISD and interned at Salvor over the summer. Hi Alex!

Oh, bagman.

I am trying to find images of the stuffed mountains that are @ kiosk, but no go so far. Those are my faves. Maybs they are LTDLLC.

healthy scoop of cap'n crunch soup

i watched benny & joon last night. when i close my eyes i see this now

does anyone else have that problem?

anyway, looking for a job blows but i just have to remember that everyday i am closer to doing FTFS (full-time fun stuff) with breanne. one more graduate studies semester and we are together again!

i should fire you and burn down your friggin' house.

stay tuned... i'm trying to make changes to the format but blogger's totally dropping a deuce on itself today. guh. ps: peter says that microsoft bidding a hundred bazill on yahoo is like senile ['ol goat cat] grandpa buying an ugly hooker.
