shoes for work
i have done well after searching man a shoe for comfortable funky work shoes i have decided upon 3.
Seychelles makes this great shoe that mixes black and brown subtly.( i find Seychelles run half size bigger)
next is the Blowfish moccasin, that feels so slipper like and can be barefoot or with opaque tights as well.
lastly, a more dressed shoe, from Restricted,
these also run a little...

its really really difficult to hold back my HONEST opinions when the members ask me for assistance in getting more match suggestions.

so so excited.
anyone?
Me: ugghhhh, no one wants to go see gavin degraw with me!!!

NY Mag’s matrix would put this under Brilliant, Highbrow.
I no longer trust NY Mag’s Approval Matrix after placing John Edwards between Highbrow and Despicable.
Um, nothing highbrow about that.
Trying to think which show I want to go to at Mercedes benz fashion week. I have a cousin in PR who hooks me up with at least one show, last time I saw Philip Lim.
If you could see only one show- which would it be?
anyone ever tried the spray on bandaid?
so curious
Back to school
Trying to get into the school spirit, and I will be needing to be buy items for my LOCKER- in the teachers room of course, and want some tips, suggestions and ideas for good essentials to carry. and what to put it all in, of course.
keep in mind, its a small locker, of the short skinny kind.
Highlight of the Trip
OK, so while we r driving out to the Mojave for sunset photo shoot, we pass this lone bicyclist on the desert road. It’s pretty rare to see anyone on bikes in August in Nevada all together let alone on way to the Mojave desert. So i make the decision that this is cool and photo worthy, i tell D to slow car down and i bend out of the window and take a few shots of the biker with the...

Jet lag is evil
don’t u hate it when people misspell your name in an email when its spelled out in your EMAIL ADDRESS!?!??!?!
flight home
all i am going to say is i sat next to a guy with tourette’s syndrome.
Thoughts
Bingo is simultaneously fun and depressing. Good thing there are old degenerate gamblers to give my ego a boost before I go home.
Stranger in a foreign land
We can’t find anyone to take a picture of us because noone speaks english. Its weird that I feel out of place in the 50 states
So far
So zappos outlet was a bust unless of course u have been searching shoes from 1999. And a lovely massage therapist told me that the sunsets are nicer than sunrises here. So yay to sleeping later.
Vaca
I see cacti so I know I am far from home. And there is a zappos outlet. Yay
Why the airport sucks
In case you forgot. Because u know that screaming child is sitting right in front of you. Free wifi doesn’t work And the lines to the womens bathroom has not goten any shorter.
today
Planning our sunrise trip to Mojave desert. ya know its cooler before the sun comes up, like 95 instead of 115 degrees. awesome.
i will have a picture like this when i get back-
Packing sweatshirts for our desert trip because Jet Blue doesn’t give out free blankets anymore. bastards.

As flattered as I am, the cat calls right outside of my apartment from the construction workers is starting to grate on my nerves.
many things on my mind,
i made off like a bandit at this awesome boutique downtown, NYU area, called something weird with an “H” today. like hieroglyphics, but not. YAY sales. these were also not really summer things, so i was even happier that to have gotten awesome bargains not on shorts and tanks.
i am quite pleased. my bag shopping isn’t going as well, and i am...
“mini skirt used to mean mid-thigh
now it means mid crotch.”
oh wait i have a ten dollar coupon make that $318. (for the bag.. )
wow - its a steal.
why is the bag i want 328 bucks?
tales of a matchmaker
request from man:
“please don’t set me up with anyone who has cellulite.”
um…
firstly, ur a jerk.
secondly, do u think they ask that to the ladies?
so how what percentage of your junk is cellulite?
yea….
thirdly, that is a nearly impossible demand. he should try something less onerous like good job, no debilitating mental illness…etc.
i dont know...
Purchased this today.
i think its versatile. jeans, blouses, beaters, pencil skirts, cuffed shorts, printed bubble skirts, boring black turtleneck dresses….
and the back is so clever. and flattering if i may add.
true story
A while ago, i heard some insane information and have not gotten over it since and felt the need to post it. enjoy it.
A young Jewish family in new jersey, with three very young children picked up and moved to Israel for fear of Obama winning. why would they fear Obama winning, you ask?
they are under the impression that Obama is building concentration camps as we speak and will implement them...
Not so Super
My Super has become the bane of my existence.
I daydream all day long of him dying or getting deported back to Romania.
Right now I am drafting a letter to send to the management company to let them know my frustrations with this idiot.
i plan on throwing in some Legalese to show them i mean business. fellow attorney friend to assist, i don’t think she knows this yet.

Take your old jeans to Barney's.
frangry:
Barney’s will take your old jeans off your hands and give you 20% off of a new pair from August 11th-25th.
making a new pair of jeans a whopping $198. thats reasonable.
I have tried long enough to keep this blog pretty neutral and impersonal but i don’t think i can do that anymore.
I work for an online dating service, setting people up by matching their profiles, for those who like the more personal touch.

this is actually a really good day to be stuck at home all day.
god this new-job- dress- code thing is really cramping my actual style.
why did i do this to myself?
fulfillment, enrichment, creative juices, making a difference… blah blah blah.
i miss my skinny jeans already.
