This is definitely my kind of place.

The great Sasha Pivovarova has an editorial shot by Meisel in this upcoming of January issue of Vogue. In it she's with Vampire Weekend and The Horrors. I'll not mention the others because they suck. However, I DO like the the shot of Sasha with Chester French in Balmain. Gosh! How shameless of them to use Sasha's coolness just to sell!

As for Monseur Meisel... where the po-mo at? I am disappointed!

Oh! And whoever did the text for the print on this shot should be fired! Hello! Are you new?!!

There comes a time when a slaving junior editor enjoys the benefit of a Coolhunt.
It's only natural to show and tell.

Remember the time when I told you about Little J's shoot with us? And remember the time when it killed me NOT to share? Well now that the ferocious feline is out of the satchel and published in FASHION mag and ELLE Girl Japan... here are the shots from work.

EDITORES

2009-11-18T23:54:00.000-08:00

Earlier this week my editors had me viewing and IDing a billion exit snaps of editors after the shows. I hope you never find yourself in this situation, on a deadline, without knowing how the hell Anna and Carine look like. So here are a few photographs from work of the editors you and your mother should know... for starters. I apologize for the cropping, I'm really not at liberty to show you these and it breaks my heart not to be able to show you guys what they are wearing. Its kind of like having the best most amazing boyfriend in the whole wide world ever... but then not having anyone to tell about it!

Dirty Sexy Left Bank

2009-11-15T14:47:00.000-08:00

Now, In honor of the lovely little EM getting fuckwasted in Paris as we speak... I shall tell you about my forgotten article in the August issue of MR Magazine.

The Apostrophe Hotel

Its practically sex in a box... a very artistic box. I mean, just climbing the hotel stairs is like having an orgasm that only Picasso and his friends can begin to fathom!

So if ever you find yourself in the Left Bank of Paris and having a conversation with a French man about eating his baguette and riding his Eiffel Tower... make sure you check yourself inside the Apostrophe Hotel. It'll be better than anything the French man can ever offer... unless of course that man is Gaspard Ulliel.

New York

2009-09-23T19:37:00.000-07:00

I am thoroughly disappointed with my designers this Spring!

So I shall release my frustrations in a form of letter.

Dear Thakoon,
I love you but... Stay out of Nicolas Ghesquiere's closet.

Dear Lacoste,
Had it not been for Sean and Behati and a few of your Cape Cod Gatsby inspired friends, I would have placed you on the X List.

Dear Oscar, Ralph and Diane,
Thank you for showing in New York.

Dear Peter Som,
It seems you are the only one with your head right.

Dear DooRi,
You should be edgy more often. It looks good on you.

Dear Paris and Milan,
I can't wait till you come.

Dear em,
I hope you find something in London.

Jungle Style

2009-09-02T05:07:00.000-07:00

I found this man in the middle of the jungle crossing a river.

I really love the look and the best thing about it is that he has no idea what he's wearing.

I asked him where he got his shirt. He told me it was a really old shirt and he just cut off the sleeves.

The funny thing is, turns out my mother is related. Crazy huh!

le nome de plume

2009-08-06T10:37:00.000-07:00

the world is full of colors, of rainbows, of lights and of darks.

i prefer to see it in its stark contrasts, in its blacks and whites,

in its yin and yangs.

eponine thenardier, of les miserables,

she and i share a dark and a light;

we are both in love, but in such a love that will never be.

marianne for the country of france, for the country that stole my heart,

where eponine's tragic story is played out.

i can never remain in one place for too long;

my heart constantly aches for the thrill of discovery, exploration, adventure.

and my greatest joy is capturing such discoveries, explorations, adventures

on film, in black and white.

DEMI-JEAN

2009-08-05T22:31:00.001-07:00

Today I wore a tight fitting denim shirt circa 1990's via Oliva Bayla. I usually wear it with my gauchos and jean shorts. Denim overkill? Not at all. But today I wore it with my topsiders and white capris.

Then a man addressed me as "SIR".
I love androgyny!

Eleanor Savage told the narcissitic Amory Blaine why she hated summer.

"Summer is life without growth"

Almost every female author published in a pseudonym since Guttenberg could remember. The Brontes published under Bell using Ellis, Currer and Acton. Ever heard of Olympe De Gauges? Exactly! Well she didn't exactly use a nom de plum when she spearheaded Robespierre. Guillotine much?!

Oh dear! Is it dark and brooding yet? Anyway, I need to stop with my history rant.

Well of course I'm a douchebag! I have no right whatsoever to use a nom de plume and yet I do it anyway!
