PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Glam & Fab

Marie is having a birthday thingy-ma-jig next weekend.
Champagne and Cupcakes will be involved.
AND the theme is Glamorous & Fabulous.
Joel and I are so excited we might actually wee ourselves.
We're going to have to do some major planning for our "look"

Today was dumpling day.
And I asked Marie
"Are we doing what I think we're doing today?"
She replied
"Oh honey, I didn't think we questioned it anymore."
HAHAHA.
Too many dumplings. Jeans were too tight.
Not pretty.... At all.

Dear Lauren,
Please make me a bustier like this one [but make it cooler]
Actually no, I remember what a pain it was to make corsets with cups
So instead, you can buy me a YSL bag. Haha..... Or not.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Itch Town

Today Ben and I had a pow wow over new fabric samples.

Oh, the cashmere....
The Angora....
But most of all, the Merino Wool & Nylon 1.3 gauge loose knit in black. Ah, The things I could do with that.
[Insert drool]

Also, in the paper the other day, I read this article about the $3700 Balmain jeans stocked at Land's End.

"At first glance, there is nothing obvious about the skinny jeans to justify the huge price tag."

Ahhhhhh. Ha. Haha. Ha.
People make me laugh. Or cringe.

I love staying up late with a good book.
The night is my friend.
And all is quiet.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Backstage Champagne

Photobucket

Photobucket

Yesterday!
Woo hoo.
Ece & Lisa's show at Ma Gallery.

After work I dashed off to the Friedrich Gray studio to pick up a pair of jeans for myself.
Me likey! 
Then raced around the corner to the gallery to have a quick run through before the show.
Hargle showed up not long after me & before we knew it - drunk half an hour before the show started. 
HA. Numbbb.

My brain was like....
~!@#$%^&*()_+me0w

My body was like....
"COMPOSURE!"

Ah, such class.

I met with Lauren today for lunch.
My little bean.
We had pizza and coffee and cookies and rain and annoying waiter and fashion talk and ring finger complications and hair styles and frothing and gold plating and zippers and chains and cuddles.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Story Telling

I'm listening to Metallica right now.
Yessssssssss.

Today I was at the Friedrich Gray studio.
On the way there, I went for a pleasant crisp morning detour walk.
During this walk I picked up Harper's Bazaar and a coffee.

Then Ivana came to visit & we went to lunch.
Mmmmm story telling is good.
So....
I tried the choc banana scones from Bakers Delight.
Not half bad. Good ending to my lunch.
I don't think scones can be considered a dessert.
Well.... It was today.

Went back to the studio and it began to rain.
As I left this afternoon I pulled out this weedy little umbrella that sheltered my head.
But not my body.
If I was like... 5 foot, then maybe half my body would be dry.
How the hell do you prevent shoes and legs getting wet in the rain?
....
Huge garbage bags encasing each leg and tied up to your thighs?
Attractive on so many levels.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Hargles, VPL's & SBA

WELL,
Today was Ece & Lisa's run through for their show at Ma Gallery.

Photobucket

Someone that goes by the name of Alpha Hargle showed up way too early.
Hang over included. Sufferrrrrrrrrrr.

It was heart warming to see Keshia [Alpha Hargle] Ece, Kee & Lisa again.

Reunions are nice.
....
Not all of them though.

Anyway,
Some of the garments were perilously short.
Like....
SHORT.
There were asses and side boob action and hargles and WHOAH.

Photobucket

Kee's dog, Booger is his name - threw up water.  ew. haha

Show's on Thursday - note to self - buy champagne.

WEDGIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Um.
He also got flattened in the back alley.

Photobucket

And Goldie made a girl cry.

By the way....
vacuum cleaner + dust + hair balls = sickening.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Being Blasé

Last night I went to an exhibition launch at Land's End.
'Crossing' was the collaborative work of Jordan Askill & Tim Richardson

Photobucket

After that, we went to the opening night of Fashion Weekend.
What a waste of life.
Boring, Painful & Unnecessary.

Photobucket

On another note, Anna Wintour has explained why she is always wearing sunglasses.
In an interview with 60 Minutes -
"They are seriously useful," she explains. "I can sit in a show and if I am bored out of my mind, nobody will notice... At this point, they have become, really, armor."

I should have thought of that last night.

So, what's Karl's story?

Photobucket

Anyway, It's funny how music evokes memories and emotions.
Sometimes I like it.... Sometimes I don't.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Hair Chair Flair Pair

WHY is this hair so fabulous?
I'm not sure why.... It just IS.

Emma Ishta at Marnie Skillings.
And backstage at Ellery.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Long Legs

I know it's not the latest issue, but I love it anyway.
Daria Werbowy in 'La Veste' Paris Vogue - March 2009.
It's totally not human to have legs like that.
Oui, c'est parfait.

Photobucket


I still heart the Balmain jackets. And a few designers that showed at RAFW seemed to heart the structured shoulders as well. One little number from Balmain, and one little number from Camilla & Marc.

Also, I think I'm getting hooked on coffee again.
This can't be good.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Soy Sauce Art

It's imperative that I own these.
But the buyer for Gucci doesn't seem to think so.

Photobucket



I had lunch with Vivien today.
She created a piece of art for me.
....
Then it got soggy with white floaty bits.

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... My Doppelgånger

So....

I was on the phone to Ernie just then, and we decided to google my full name.

Ernie: What!? You have your own website?
Jade: What!? No I don't!
[We click on the link]
[In unison]: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

"Mom, Something's wrong with meeeeee"

PERFECT TIMING FOR.... Glass

Went over the sea
What did I find?
A thousand crystal towers
A hundred emerald cities
And the hand of the watchman
In the night sky
