I Think I'll Buy a Leopard

Not to overdo the Martha Marcy, Mae, Mary, Melissa..., but at the premiere I spoke with actor, Hugh Dancy and we both agreed on how uTTerLy perfect Bringing Up Baby is.




Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn are impeccable. 
And I adore that pet LeoPard, too bad they're ILLEGAL to house and would possibly bite my head oFF.

Martha, Marcy, Mary, Mae, Melanie, Michelle, Marlene, Marilyn...

Last night I attended the film premiere of Martha, Marcy, Mae, Marlene.  While I'm by no means a film reviewer, I feel pasSionate that this is award WINNING. Elizabeth Olsen stars as young girl who has escaped from a cult and goes to live with her sister and brother-in-law.  If you LIVE for psychological thrillers, this is your film. The entire time you gravitate hoping to gain more information and you can't help but be enthralled by the madness that has overwrought Olsen. Elizabeth Olsen has been gaining the hype of new "it girl," I really HATE that term, but who ever predicted her title was right on the money.  Girlfriend is OUTSTANDING. 
She wore Alexander McQueen to the film and while I wasn't craZy about the over accessorized route she or her stylist had taken, she looked fLaWlesS.

This genre of film is by far my favorite (Girl, Interrupted is on my top 10). 
I'm not crazy (well not completely), I just psychotic films.

Circular Vuitton




I wasn't the Biggest fan of Marc Jacobs' Louis Vuitton collection, but there were some elements I TRULY fell for. If it wasn't for the CaROuseL, I think I may have not felt the need to broWse the details of the asSortment, but the stunning pointy heel pumps were BeYond. Not to mention the Snakeskin Leather, which I hear LVMH actually purchased a tannery. A little much, but nonetheless quite the investment.

Jacobs' knows how to put on a show and it's NEVER over the top, unlike Karl Lagerfeld's underwater mermaid terrain.  
Doesn't Karl know merpeople are forbidden to interact with humans?

No worries, nothing gets by me.

The Collagist

As I've mentioned before (I think I have) coLLaging is incredibly LAX for me. Sometimes I generate Birthday Cards, occasionally Notebook Covers, and Once in awhile Wall Art.

Be honest, wall art worthy?
I think so...

"Ask Someone Else"

When Anna Wintour was summoned about Kanye West's debut collection she replied, "Ask someone else." In other words, she politely meant (well I think) " it sucked."


 Even the skinniest model can't wear these hideous, unflattering pants
 I don't understand, it looks like a stiletto got revamped with a chunk of obnoxious embellishments.
Take your bows on stage, not the runway

Besides being adverse to the idea of celebrity designers (besides Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, they're pure genius) I think it's ridiculous that a celebrity can easily show at Lincoln Center or I guess now in Paris.

It frustrates me that he was evaluated on Style.com.  When Honor, a beautiful up and coming line wasn't even assessed.
According to reviews, the clothes fit pOOrly and were compared to a "Baby Balmain." Kanye doesn't have a vision, he's a sham, taking bits and pieces from the established. 

Kanye-You can make another collection and embarass yourself once again, or learn the trade and maybe I'll have your back...remember that's a maybe.
You asked for your chance to grow, you get one.

Kanye as a designer-LUDICROUS.
Kayne as a music artist-I'LL ACCEPT.
