Ah fuck it, any news from New York Fashion Week? What's hot? What's not? I hear chinchilla's big in S/S11.
I know your being sarcastic but I have to wait up while shit uploads to my FTP as the retoucher needs it at 8am tomorrow. Also its A/W 11 Fashion week, spring week is in September.
Its been fun so far, the Milk Shows are way more interesting then the MB shows at Lincoln Center but we all knew they would be. Rodarte isn't even showing up there any more, just the mass market brands.
I had to miss Geller to make Sally Lapointe, which was a tough call but Lapointe was amazing and so worth it, I have camera phone pictures but I want to find better ones to post here. My idiot friend refused decided she was sitting in 3rd row B section to hide from some boy she had slept with so I sat in the front row A section by my self as prominent seating is more important then friends who don't understand how important it is.
United Bamboo was good I sat 2nd row A section and I sat 2nd row B section for Jill Stuart. 1st row C section at Pamela Love which was amazing, and I loved the crystal backdrop.And my fave after Lapoine was Mandy Coon and I sat 1st row B section.
Presentation wise I liked Stark and Dominique Lewis, the latter used my friend Bevel for his shows jewelry.
I was HUGELY disappointed in Honor NY, they had an amazing stage set up but the show was a SHIT SHOW I had a front row seat and arrived on time but it was so crowded I had to wait to enter then I could not physically push through to my seat until I found an usher to clear the way. The line was totally uninspired and mass market.
Parties have been ok, the Seven NY party at Tribecca Grand was fun, I hadn't seen Susie Bubble since September and it was good to catch up, they marched that dumb ass swatch girl down the steps and some one yelled "make way for whomever it is" which was hilarious. The CJ Ronson party tonight was also a ton of fun but I was to tired to tough it out and I have a 9am show tomorrow. Yelle is at Tribecca grand right now but I would rather be in bed. Getting old sucks.
looking forward to Galligher at Milk tomorrow and I'm looking forward to the Dirty Durty and Metal Magazine parties.

anyone know of a good *affordable *spot to get some lenses made up for a pair of glasses? Doesn't have to be in the UK.
I don't know if they do mail order but I'm going in to my optometrist, Moscot, tomorrow and could ask, they were $70 last year when I got new lenses, so in the area of 40 quid, don't know how cheap that is in comparison but I've got no complaints.
Edit: I would be willing to have them grind some lenses and then send them to you if they don't want to do the mail order thing at its worth it to ya.

Cchwis Charsh is my new internet hero
I've been your hero since your name had a P in it, don't think I didn't trace those love notes you left me in SE1
Chris, why do I have the feeling that your arrival here means the beginning of the apcalypse?
Probably the terrible suggestion that some one actually pay creatives, so they can pay their drug dealers will bring in some indignation from some of the people here whom aspire to create content for print but have never earned a living doing so.

The idea that an editorial team of entirely woman is better then a mixed one based on that sole fact is laughable.
Also I don't think anyone has pointed out there is already a throughly terrible fixed gear culture magazine called "COG", I would reconsider the name based on that.
best of luck with the venture though, I hope you pay your staff well and remember that landlords and drug dealers don't trade for credit/ by lines so neither will serious or talented content producers.

wern't corduroy blazers a key part of the beginning of the boring heritage trend early last fall?
