Cheers to The Interwebs!
The success I’ve had with the story about my stolen chair has only gone up from how low I was when it happened. If you aren’t familiar with the story, here is a spark notes version (brownie points if you ever used sparked notes way back then): About this time last year I went to a friends house and went inside for a minute to which i left my chair in his gated brownstone house....

Theres no weekend during Fashion Week.
Every time NYFW comes around I completely forget what day it is because it seems like a never-ending day. This was what normal people call a saturday, and I went to the Katya Leonovich fashion show and SIR NY presentation.
Katya is one of few designers who actually paints their prints for the fabric. She gets inspiration from sculptures or like a few seasons ago, a football team. This year the...

When Tables Turn.
Something incredible happened yesterday. A interview that my friend Alex Naser-Hall (a music writer for Invisible Children) did about me that got published on the Invisible Children Blog! I have been a volunteer for this amazing nonprofit for many years now and this was such an honor that i’m still in the “OMG NO WAY” phase. I probably won’t get over this for a very long...

WELL, THIS IS ODD
When we go out to find a new place to shop we look for certain things; how many people are in this store, the price ranges, does it fit your taste of clothes, how far is it from your home and would you come back? How about if we add one more that was just discovered at a opening of a new boutique, can it be worn with both sexes? How about it doesn’t matter because everything in this boutique...

Life is Too Short for Sad Endings.
Only three people actually saw me break down that night. I have never felt so worthless and betrayed in my life. When you work so hard for something and then in a blink of an eye, gone. I am usually a very postive happy person, my life could have been a sad story full of shame and sorrow but I dont let that get to me. That day it got me, all i felt was my body flooding and time moving...
