Breathe…Slowly In and Out
I have this great post that I will (hopefully) post tomorrow. But it involves an art project. Yes. Art.Project. Pretty much, if there is one thing I love almost as I love television, its collages. So starting tomorrow, every so often (hey, I do have a life haha) I am going to make some sort of fabulous fashion collage and then scan it to show you my picks. Tomorrow will be shoes. The new YSL shoes available for pre-order at Nordstrom, are amazing. I am in love. So that is my project for tomorrow night while I watch more True Blood. Okay, well maybe before I settle in for the night to watch True Blood. Obviously, that show needs my full attention. The next one after shoes will will probably be my favs from NY fashion week and then bags/purses, accessories, you get the jist.
And speaking of Vampires..the new CW show, the Vampire Diaries was on tonight. It was slow to start, but I enjoyed it. It’s kind of a super cheesy cross between Dawson’s Creek and Twilight. If you can get cheesier than those things. But the boys on that show, Stefan and his deliciously sexy brother Damon, aka Boone from Lost are pretty to look at. I am curious about the book series. I’ll add them to my list.
Other shows…Melrose Place 2.0. Um, yeah. Not so sure I am on board with this one. I was more interested in the adult story lines (Michael Mancini!) and who he is married too…my sister thinks Jane, since that actress also is returning. I just can’t really figure out what the show wants. I feel like its trying to hard to be edgy and should just be soap-y. However, nothing will ever compare to the original. I watched that show until the bitter end. Oh Peter and Amanda, how I miss you. And nothing, NOTHING, will ever be as awesome as Dr. Kimberly Shaw ripping off her wig. Classic.
Shows returning that I am excited for: Fringe, Gossip Girl and Castle. And Ugly Betty. I hope they make this season great. Especially since there are some really good guest stars. New shows: Modern Family, FlashForward and V. And sort of Cougar Town and Community. Yes I watch way too much tv. Thank heaven for DVRs. ahaha And I don’t feel guilty about it. Probably because I do actually do other stuff (hello, president of Chicago NOW people!) so then it makes it all okay.
This weekend is busy wedding Saturday and shower Sunday. Not to mention that at some point I need to do my nails and go to Kinkos. I am excited to wear my Betsy Johnson dress to the wedding Sunday. And I got really awesome shoes on mega sale at DSW.
Alrighty, back to Project Runway. I need to learn to sew. Anyone know a good place to learn? Can I teach myself? I was pretty much a disaster in Home Ec in 7th grade, but I think I have matured since then. Plus, I thought learning how to cook and sew at school was lame. I mean really, a patchwork pillow? Who needs that? I wanted to take music class and make things out of clay. ha typical.
So get excited for my fashion art projects! I am! Mostly because I get to look at pretty shoes while I do it. Its all about metallic for fall 09. Get ready for some glamour and glitz!
kisses.
