Finally got there this weekend!

Amazing! You would have loved it. Some really crazy clothes but some incredibly beautiful and considered clothes to hold it all together.

The dresses in the picture were made from moulded poly foam. 

I've spoken to the press office and ordered the 2 on the left for you. Size 2 right?

Self Project

Nothing complete as yet due to my living at the studio but i am half way through a pattern for a wool felt bomber jacket  I'm making.

Sound a little strange but it's gonna be hot, watch this space.

Film

So, i watched 'In The Mood For Love'. Absolutely amazing!

Starring Maggie Cheung and Tony something-or-other. Really beautifully shot and the soundtrack is so slick!

Must see this one, Mr.

Last entry - your turn

Hey sweetie,

I've chosen to discard fashion, men & women, out of this first information swap as one has nothing to report... NOTHING (American Apparel is fashion over here). I'd be most thrilled for you to take the lead on this one. 

I require key, staple pieces that one can mix and match... hated writing that. I'm attending my first gay wedding a week on Saturday and need to wow the crowd - WAVE DARLING, WAVE. 

Also, have you seen Milk yet?

I'm signing out. 

Movies.

Last Chance Harvey - Emma Thompson and Dustin Hoffman. I'm heading to see this later - I will review on my next entry. 

The Universe of Keith Haring - DVD Release March '09.

The Last Dragon - 80's Classic.

Year of the Dog or Superstar - Molly Shannon stars in both.

Or

Weeds - Season 4. Download it sweetie - fucking hilarious.

Books:

'The Secret Life of Bees' By Sue Monk Kidd. A New York Times bestseller.

I recommend reading this before seeing the movie. One is completely aware that said novel was acknowledged numerous times whilst visiting the homeland over the festive season. However I still suggest you READ, READ, READ this book.

'Keith Haring' By Jeffrey Deitch, Suzanne Geiss and Julia Grue.

Absolutely essential. 

Self project: My first Carrot Cake

I baked this on Saturday for a friends Birthday. It was a little stressful as I only had one cake tin, but besides that it ended nicely and got good reviews. TASTY. 

I took a photo of the 'Last Slice' as proof that I made it. 

I currently have my first chili on the stove which we won't discuss right now...

So here it is - enjoy.
