Alejandro! 1969-2010

I write this blog with a tremndous amount of sadness. This morning Alexander McQueen, a fashion mentor dear to my heart, was found dead in his apartment London. It was suicide by asphyxiation. How dark and poetic at the same time.

It is always sad when someone so talented and young leaves us way too early. In case of McQueen this is especially hard on me because people like him inspire my own creativity and drive me to do what I really love in life.

To many of you who do not know McQueen on a deep artistic level like I do, you will know him for this - LADY GaGa. Yes ladies and gentlemen, Lady Gaga would never be so Gaga without the help of Alexander. Her 10 inch alien-like shoes, her performance costumes and her award gowns and outfits - it was all his genius putting it together and her pulling it off outside of the runway.

I composed a quick collage of my favorite McQueen moments. I <3 you Alexander and you will be missed :(

I Love California

I recently celebrated my 27th Birthday by organizing a Laguna Beach bonfire...Yes just like Kristen and Steven on the show. DUH!

It was the most amazing day and I was able to take some amazing photos. I now have a pretty hefty collection and I thought it be nice if I shared my amateur photography skills (digital and 35mm film)

This is why I live here :)

SAGs 2010 - Is that you again Kate?

I refuse to sound like a broken record so this will be brief. I don't think I need to say much about Kate Hudson in the white Pucci at the SAG Awards. Lust look for yourself.

PS Ladies-This back = HOTTTTTTTTT! Yoga, everyone, we must all do more yoga!



As, always there are the 2nd BESTs. This time Anna Paquin Leads again in Alexander McQueen. Followed by Marion Cotillard in Elie Saab. (She's flawless because she's European... Just sayn' ;) We're hot people). Finally, we have Diane Kruger in a piece that resembles a dress Michelle Williams wore to the Oscars in 2006.
