leopard skin pillbox hat

last shot of the night from wednesday night.
basically still recovering from bestE's birthday best.

p.s.i am catching up on about a month of blogging, please be patient.

nesting

so, i got some plants last week..and we got a couch (tweedy--with plexi side pieces!), a coffee table and some color block pedestals..
now, i'm hoping to finally unpack the last of the moving boxes by october.....
look forward to the fall fiesta on october 17th--it's shaping up to be a triple threat. mercedez singleton [october 14]+david black[october 17]+yours truly[october 19]= one big birthday bash celebrating the lavish libras in your life..or if you prefer earth signs to astrology...come cavort with the coyotes!

looking for dining chairs

i need at least 6..but matching ones are hard to find..so as usual i'm thinking to mix it up...still not sure about where to go..the table is mid century danish and the theme is thus far kind of mad hatter mod-ish/danish..so these might work but i'm not 100% sure.

fingers crossed

that this becomes mine...
organizing documents will seem so much more awesome

turns out there's a taco bell express near my home!!

flushing and broadway y'all.

dinner party plans

i've been looking at this on ebay for 3 weeks now, and i think it's time. i'm going to use my paycheck from the photograph sale last week and get it. start stocking up on wine, as you may be invited over for food at a proper grown up table.

ikea brooklyn: close coordinates

opening weekend was a madhouse. got hit by about 20 strollers, kiddos popping balloons which sounded like resonating air fire, an all out brawl and bitch slapping to boot, in the interim jacqueline + i spent some time zen-ing out while lounging on chaise longues looking out at the river...and i made up my mind that 2 of those is better than a couch (sadly white is the only option). so the search for the dream couch continues. we rounded the 6 hour round trip adventure with cheap dogs and a long wait for the G.

[p.s. this is the first moving in shot, taken from the driver's seat in the uHaul]

a teaser

natacha chamarro is a genius.
daphne guinness tipped me off [in the NYtimes styles section a few months ago] to the notion of stripper shoe comfort which lead me to these tawdry towerful numbers..i will post some cheaper versions in a few days..
i'm on blog hiatus for a few as of now. forgive me lords of blogtown, i am moving all day today. it's 6am. i haven't slept yet. a friend who is now a man with a van is to arrive at 11am..
the bed and almost everything will go over the river today. the blog issue is that i don't yet have internet at my new place..which is of the utmost importance obviously.
but for now i leave you with these splendid stilettos.
besos for now
more fotos to follow.

living in new york

means you might have accumulated a lot of black shoes..
these aren't even all of them.
oi vey,i have a shopping problem.

..they say admitting it is half..but it sure doesn't seem that way.

inevitably inefficient

sharice goes to brooklyn

she's been back and forth to brooklyn more than twice now. with one each, of a ride in a uHaul truck, taxi cab, livery car, and last but not least- the subway...after all of this, she's become quite a quiet traveler. she was like a pro on the subway-not even a minor meow.

boxed up baubles

lady lizzE, or the winsome white lightning, if you'd rather just posted a bit about habitual collections..and i thought i'd respond with a few visuals of my own..

p.s. packing stuff sucks..especially when you've been somewhere for nearly 5 years.. extra-especially when you collect everything.

p.p.s. both her mom and my mom got rid of all their cool things.. and now we never can..
