Vogue questions

15 07 2008

Lately the newstand outside my office has been bringing in Vogue US very very early. Like even before the subscribers early.

So I got my august copy this morning I posted the picture of the cover on tfs – kate moss on the cover! It was big news because when was the last time US Vogue had a model on the cover?!

And I was really bowled over when I went t this popular fashion blogger’s site – which, if I’m correct, has a lot of fashion industry readers… the little photo I took this morning (complete with ‘Special Price!’ sticker) is there!

And it hit me, all of a sudden. Is the issue supposed to come out that early? Why is it on ‘Special Price’?

Questions questions…

Update: OMG. The picture I took is now on The Cut on NY Mag

Why can’t all of them just use the Style.com version!





You make my dreams

4 07 2008

I guess some people might look at my life and think “She’s really settled into this routine”. Weekdays at work, dinner with CJ or at home, sometimes with friends. Saturday at the dental clinic and then CJ’s place. Lazy afternoons. Adventures on Sunday. Repeat.

I’m terrified of routines. I’m so scared that one day I will realize I’m 48 years old and I’ve not done anything I wanted to do.

At dinner tonight with CJ, my parents and Uncle Tony at SICC – I had a thought. This is nice. This is not so bad. People I love at dinner with me. Can I do this for the rest of my life?

I don’t know yet.

But I know I need you all the time.

===
What I want, you’ve got
And it might be hard to handle
But like the flame that burns the candle
The candle feeds the flame

What I’ve got’s full stock of thoughts and dreams that scatter
You pull them all together
And how, I can’t explain

But you make my dreams come true
Well you make my dreams come true

On a night when bad dreams become a screamer
When they’re messin’ with the dreamer
I can laugh it in the face

Twist and shout my way out
And wrap yourself around me
‘Cause I ain’t the way that you found me
I’ll never be the same

‘Cause you make my dreams come true
Well you you make my dreams come true

I’m down on the daydream
That sleepwalk should be over by now
I know that you make my dreams come true

I’m waiting for you, you make my dreams come true





Happy 4th of July!

Somebody tell me why Irina L. is still allowed to model when she looks like this -

UGGGhh.

But other than that, the rest of the clothes are beautiful.

My favorite not-so-new girls Michaela and Georgina. Working the dresses! Amazing coat on Michaela! I want to run my hands over the fabric.

Gotta love the Kaiser for this

He does take his part time stint as an ambassador for public safety seriously!

But the point of this entry is to say how much I love the whole ‘carry your own frame’ concept.

Lovely!

How clever! I almost wished this was mainstream already so I can walk down the streets in my own little ‘frame’. I would choose the square one. Very ‘I’m ready for my closeup now’ feel to it. Work it, Iekeline!
