A Little Peak Inside My World

Happy Tuesday, darlings! I'm so excited because I just found out my ReadyMade magazine feature is up and running. It's been on their site for over a month now...I had no idea...nobody told me about it. I was waiting for the print issue to come out but I haven't heard about that and I'm not sure if it's going to happen.

Anyway, after all this time {they acutally interviewed me over a year ago}and two photo shoots later, it's nice to see the final product come to fruition. Hope you all enjoy this little glimpse into my reality :)

Hope you're all having a fabulous week! xoxo

Finally Friday!

Happy Friday! It's been such a hectic albeit exciting week with a lot of running around so I'm really happy that I'll finally have a few days off.

Yesterday was really exciting with the ReadyMade shoot. Everything came together great and I was really happy with how the photos turned out. And I was able to wear a black skirt so I was happy that I didn't have to be in color head to toe :)

I'm going to be in the April/May issue which will probably come out in about 2 months from now. I'll be sure to show you all the results as soon as they come my way.

Funny thing I found out today. The story ReadyMade is running on me is in the HDYGTFAJ (How did you get that f^&*ing awesome job?) feature and the person who is being featured for that this month is Jonathan Adler! Ummm Jonathan Adler & me? I really don't think you can compare us at all. I mean he's a genius and WTF am I???? I'm so flattered to be in his company at all:)

Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Enjoy! xoxo

Camera Ready?

Light's Camera Action, today's my big photoshoot for ReadyMade magazine. I'm excited and dreading it at the same time. Unfortunately, despite much searching at numerous stores, I couldn't find anything to wear. See they told me that I needed to wear something soft and pretty. Definitely no black or white. And that's a problem for me. Being a New Yorker, my wardrobe skews heavily to the black side. And it's also the middle of winter so any soft pretty colorful stuff is packed away in storage.

Well I headed downstairs to storage and managed to pull a few things together but I just don't feel like me in the clothes I chose. I mean can't I wear just a little bit of black somewhere? It's January and I'm pale and pasty and my arms aren't in top shape. Kinda a nightmare. I just hope they retouch! :)

Hope you all have a wonderful day. Good news, Friday's only a day away! :)

Wakeup Shakeup

This editorial in February's Spanish Vogue is exactly what I needed to perk me up this morning. I'm loving her energy and the dresses and jewels. Just gorgeous. Speaking of dresses, I still need to find something to wear for the ReadyMade shoot on Thursday...I wish H&Ms Garden Collection was in store...

The Time Has Come!

So I just got some more exciting news. I mentioned this a while back and nothing really ever came of it. ReadyMade magazine approached me last year for their HDYGTFAJ (How did you get that f^&*ing awesome job?) feature. I did an interview and photoshoot and then I didn't hear anything from them for months.

Well I finally got the call and it's back on track. I'm going to appear in the April/May issue. They are going to do a new photoshoot in a studio this time (as opposed to the first one in my office). And I get to have hair and makeup! Hooorayyy!!!

I was told to wear something soft and pretty since it's a spring issue. Too bad all my spring clothes are packed away for the long deep freeze. Guess I'm just gonna have to go shopping...

I'd like to wear this dress with a YSL Arty metal ring or 2. And I'd be super psyched if my hair & makeup would look like this :)

Strange Happenings

Happy Monday everyone. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Sorry for getting such a late start. I've been wrapped up in a pretty exciting, albeit strange project today.

A few weeks ago I was approached by ReadyMade magazine to appear in a feature for them called HDYGTFAJ (How did you get that f^&*ing awesome job?). So today the extremely talented photographer Quentin Bacon came to my office to photograph me for the feature. Strange and exciting, yet terrifying at the same time. Anyway, I'm happy to say that it's over and I think it went pretty well. Can't wait to see what they come up with and I pray they retouch!
