4 DAYS IN THE COLD CRUEL WORLD

SATURDAY:

I started my week last Saturday @ the Brooklyn Flea.
Victorian nightgowns and eyelet cotton underpinnings.
NO ONE GAVE A RATS ASS!



I guess no one was thinking of going as a Whitesnake concert slut for Halloween...

80s Motorcycle jacket in black canvas - $40 bucks
80s black and white stripe rayon shirt - $18 bucks
80s 25" waist Levis with frayed holes in the butt - $25



Mexican dress. I guess we're in the wrong season to sell this but thats why we would have given you a discount.


$45 bucks for a Leopard print coat. A la Edie Sedgwick.
No one bought this either. Maybe because its too much of a furry blanket?


Cute boy tried on my Cherokee sweatshirt.
$20 bucks. He didnt buy it.

The FLEA WAS A BUST. It rained, I held in my pee and Martha Stewart didnt show up.

SUNDAY:

So photo shoot time. People think this is glamourous and all I have to say is Sunday morning @ 7:30am after lugging 100 pounds of clothes, shoes and accessories up 5 flights is NOT my idea of Sunday Brunch.

Behind the scenes with..... I dont think I can say her name without getting into trouble...so I'll mention it later.


Jewels for the shoot.


MONDAY:


This is Sidney, a boy after my heart. He usually has me laughing so hard that I have hard cruel lines in my face after leaving his office. This picture really says it all. Sidney handles press for United Bamboo, Lela Rose, Rachel Comey, Thuy and a bunch of others... Usually when he throws something my way, I don't question it. I'll keep it on the rack even if it's something that I am unsure about. Sidney, you're always right. I shot your Rachel Comey red suede mini dress.

Next, I went to Thom Browne. Whose construction blows me away...Thom, you are a wonderful genius. Thank you for this bucket hat allows me to leave the house any day of the year without anyone having to see my face (with or without puffy eyes, acne, salt-bloating, facial extraction irritation).


The motorcycle jacket Courtney is posing with, I am dying to own. Pendleton Woolen Mills for Opening Ceremony.

After the shoot, the messenger left the garment bag (with this very jacket inside) on the MTA bus. WHO DOES THIS? It was lost for almost an entire day, but it was miraculously found and returned.
I thank God, Jesus, Mary Mother, Ghandi, Mother Teresa and to Molly Williams for keeping her cool.
