sophie dahl did this shoot for the november uk vogue...i love the styling for this shoot..they really captured debbie...& she looks like her except she kinda has a michael jackson nose
zac posen did some beautiful dresses for spring...makes me wanna make some..his collection was really interesting..especially his color choices...he goes from neutrals to primaries & ends in shades of blue...it's a nice & unexpected progression
i'm going cross eyed...i've been writing a term paper for the past 3.5 hrs straight & i'm still not done :( next week is the last! just a few more papers to write /1 more painting to do & i'll be gooooood...i wanted to write something clever but my head is like jell-o
these days i've seriously been thinking about traveling...i believe next may i'll be goin to italy as a graduation present...hopefully it'll work out, i've wanted to go ever since i did a report on it in 4th grade...i want to get out once im free from collegiate affairs, you know see the world & find myself lol...haha j/k im not that cheesy...perhaps thailand to see my purse productions as well... also sanfran might be in the near future..theres a really good exhibition up there i wanna catch before it's gone...so many places to see & people to make fun of...can't wait!!!!!!!
p.s. this 11 thing i've been talking about has been so random lately..it's kinda trippin me out....this weekend is 11/11 so we'll see what happens? maybe i'll turn into a pumpkin
hooray! halloween is quickly approaching! i'm so excited, i want to do something waaaay fun this year...i'm trying to figure out what to be, i was thinking dorothy, but i think that might be over done, so i think i'll stick w/ my original plan, lolita...haha, i'm on the lookout for some heart shaped glasses now....on another note, another hooray for midterms! j/k today is good & hopefully things will get even better this week, we're keeping it on the up & up...now i'm wearing rose-colored glasses haha...i'm lame
i just told andrea that i'm the andre leon talley of watermarke haha
anyways, i did some retail therapy today in between classes...it felt really really good...new clothes make me smile
on a random note...everytime i look somewhere i see the #11...clocks, treadmills, etc...i don't know what it means but maybe its something crazy like that movie 23?
we talked about this one in class today...i want to run through it
i've had the worst insomnia the past 2 weeks & its killing me....i hate when you just toss & turn all nite, but i guess that's why God created i-pods. things seem to be settling down a bit, which is nice for a change...it's been craziness the last couple months..i need a vacation already ready
today was pleasant. i missed my class, slept in, & went to visit 2 different japanese gardens (cslb {above pix} & that hidden noguchi sculpture garden) w/ my pops for a paper i have to write. it was so pretty outside today & we got lunch @ kabuki & japanese candy @ asia-mart 2000 then went to the california scenario then got rear ended by an asian...oh the irony
it's that time again...we're starting to prepare for sr. shows this spring & i'm completely clueless as to what the hell i want to do...i've narrowed it down to either digital photo, painting, or some kind of installation. whatever it is, i gotta step up from last semester. i'm so glad i'm graduating in may, this school stuff is getting old. anyways, i've been researching some contemporary artists to "get some inspiration" & stumbled upon michael zavros...i like his stuff...he uses like versailles & dior homme models & such for his paintings which i think is funny the way he has recontextualized them in another medium..makes you look at them differently rather than them just being in a magazine
angie is my new bff..haha. so i got an internship @ st. john assisting the sportswear designer...i'm pretty stoked because i think it'll be a good experience & a plus for my resume. it's so close to home too which is a double bonus..i didn't want to have to drive to l.a. everyday...anyways, hooray for me i'm going to be a busy bee this semester
what happened to the nice gloomy day? it was raining in the morning & made me excited for fall, then it got sunny....speaking of fall the dreaded day has come, classes start tomorrow in the a.m.
i'm excited for it and loathing it @ the same time...i think i just need a few weeks for everything to get into routine again & for me to figure out the internship/financial/schedule status
