well, actually i've just been busy doing many things to keep up on this here besos jam, so sorry about that..
some of these activities inlude: doing a major studio rehaul, painting, organizing the collection project, BBQ-ing, beach-ing, meetings, gardening, selling clothes, and generally trying not to schvitz through everything too much. (what happened to spring?? it's like 9 million degrees in my apartment right now and it feels too early to turn on the AC-a slippery slope as once it's on, it's hard to turn off).
anyhoo, i've got loads of pictures to share and a long overdue outfit post-i promise to try to get that up here in the next week! hope y'all are enjoying your spring flings.

hit the road jack.

we've been lucky enough to have a couple afterparty's at the classic car club of new york..one was after the samantha pleet preview during fashion week+one was on david black's birthday-post papabubble..
see samantha's blog or danadition for a few more shots.

(fotos not by me are pirated from the aforementioned sites-shot by david, jacqueline dimilia, or dana)

no puff pieces here.

it's was that time of year again yesterday...for the cheek-ie lookbook shoot! i was honored once again to be asked by the supremely talented angela barrow to model..+luckily i trust that the photographer mr. henry will do right by me in the end (as this is now the 3rd shoot we've worked on together--so i was much less nervous than last time.)
as is always the case, we had a lot of fun in the pretty epic soho loft (complete with 2 cleaning ladies--making it feel very disimilar to last years billybug shoot). the day was made complete by old friends and a couple new ones, including the lovely miss jill--who i'd heard oh so much about from the enthusiast+white lightning road trip monologues for teen vogue+from their respective blogs. so, i gotta say monday was a swell day, with great attitudes+jealous-making jewelry..which by the way we were all lucky enough to score!! (my goodies are in the last shot-thanks ang:).
*by the by..somebody tell abigail that i need her lorick crinoline, thanks to dustin, i have a new found flirty obsession which is nothing if not completely impractical..(+also yes, those are my new shoes!!!!--a post on them is to come)
**all fotos of me-other than the obvi self-p are from jill's behind the scenes write up on her iheart blog.
***+more fotos+shout outs to be seen on brilliant beverly's behind the scenes write up on vice..(thus an addendum is a probable possibility.)
