a new word definition, for internet shopping when you can't sleep...see the new york times style section, to read more about this word and others, as noted in a new book by the creators of daily candy.

[this ebay purchase most certainly may be filed under aforementioned categorical shopping..but it's got moving parts, what's a gal to do]

boucle for fall


i sent a best offer..we'll see.

my dad just sent me this


i wanted to be a model, an actress or a long distance runner at this point in the '80's.. so he took this shot of me to send to his nyc based photo friend..obviously, we got no call back, putting on a man sized suit really did nothing for my figure. although i guess, the look is very au courant at this point. c'est la vie.

wednesday



for the debut of my mended romper, i had every intention of wearing the colin stuart platforms. but soon realized that a day of city traipsing and heavy lifting would make me grouchy by the end of the day..so in the end i substituted them for the f troupe's and some red lips..

taped up team awesome.
