Holy Shit My Makeup Looks Amazing.

Going out in a few minutes. And just got a new tube of DiorShow Mascara. It really works wonders and brings out your eyes. Just look. Well, coke and red bull totally helped bring out my eyes also...

Yummy Yummy Screw: Anthony Gallo Edition

Let's just say that I have a broad taste in men. Anthony Gallo is a yummy piece of chocolate. You may know him in Rihanna's "Take A Bow" video. But this guy finally broke through in DSquared's show for S/S '09. So delish. And now he's represented by Major Models, an agency known for their men's board that is equivalent to Greek statues.

Smile With Your Drunk Eyes.

Every supermodel has a signature look and pose. Tyra has the over the shoulder. Kate has the hungry coke face. I guess you can say I adopted those two looks and fused them together. I have the coked out over the shoulder drunk face. Just look at me exude fierce eyes sex appeal while modeling a jug of Tampico with Vaaka Vodka. Yummy.

I am SO Lindsay Lohan. Where are my black leggings?!

Beyonce Is The Reason I'm Broke

I just purchased my tickets to see Beyonce/Sasha Fierce in concert. I basically spent my paycheck I just received yesterday. I'm suicidal. Yeah yeah. I always reassure myself that this is a good thing. So for two weeks, I am broke. On the bright side, I won't eat. I can get skinny and get couture for Sasha Fierce.

I Feel Love.

Fragrance campaigns can be so blah. Whispered voice and cheesy acting. But this new ad for Gucci's Flora was amazing. The music and Abbey Lee killed it.

I'm Totally Emaciated To Help Stop Global Warming.

How do you feel about this headline?:



As said by writer Ben Jackson:

"Scientists warned that the increase in big-eaters means more food production — a major cause of CO2 gas emissions warming the planet. Overweight people are also more likely to drive, adding to environmental damage. Dr Phil Edwards, of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said: 'Moving about in a heavy body is like driving in a gas guzzler.' Each fat person is said to be responsible for emitting a tonne more of climate-warming carbon dioxide per year than a thin one. It means an extra BILLION TONNES of CO2 a year is created, according to World Health Organisation estimates of overweight people. The scientists say providing extra grub for them to guzzle adds to carbon emissions that heat up the world, melting polar ice caps, raising sea levels and killing rain forests. The environmental impact of fat humans is made even worse because they are more likely to travel by car — another major cause of carbon emissions."

Does this mean it's okay to starve myself to haute couture status so I can help fight global warming? I think so. Leo DiCaprio and Al Gore would be proud. As well as Karl Lagerfeld!!!

Recessionista Loves Decades.

I never feel really bad when I spend money on couture. Especially if it's 80% off of the retail price. When I do save money, I grow some balls and go to the vintage couture shop known as DecadesTwo, a shop notably attended by power stylist, Rachel Zoe. Decades is now opening in the East Coast.

They’ve acquired a small space above Soho’s Kiki de Montparnasse and collected 2000 pieces of designer clothes, jewelry, bags and shoes to sell to (new)vintage hungry New Yorkers.

The store will be there from May 14th to 17th but there’s one small catch, for the first few days it’s only open to their already loyal clients and invited guests. The public may shop on the last day, but who knows how much of the Marc/Chloe/Balenciaga/Chanel/Prada stash will be left by then - especially since loads of it will be priced about 80% below retail.

Rachel Zoe’s donated a good chunk of her closet and a portion of the profits will help a Detroit based charity.

Fingers crossed for Balenciaga SS08 florals

Doppelganger.

What?! Who ARE you?!!

Life Size!

I fell in love with Tyra Banks when she made the Disney movie, "Life-Size" I just wished that they really made an Eve doll so I can do a crazy incantation and turn her into my fashion friend. Tyra was still skinny and credible! She seriously looked good in the movie, the acting was crappy but it's a Disney movie! Aw, and remember when Lindsey was still an actress? Mmm Hmm!

Not Sure...

Ladies, how do you feel about Kanye West's new advertisement for his Louis Vuitton sneaker line?

Personally, no thanks. But Amber Rose is totally bangin'. Best gold digger ever.

Fruit Next To Fruits. Los Angeles, CA.

Introducing: My Marc Jacobs boater hat. Enjoy.

Yummy Yummy Screw: Brad Fisher Edition.

I picked up Esquire's Big Black Book today and saw New York Artist/Ford Model Brad Fisher all over the magazine. This guy is mucho delish. Rugged with salt & pepper hair. And an artist! A girl can only dream.

Yummy Yummy Screw, Non?!

V Magazine!

Hey There! Your very own recessionista is in V Magazine's website! Hopefully, I make it in the back pages of the magazine for the next issue! Click on the photo and find me! You cant miss me! I'm too fabuleux!

Even The Tiniest Purchase Is Being Affected.

I am the quintessential recessionista: I had to give up pieces of luxury and spend it on practicality. Basically,I have to sometimes have that "quantity over quality" mentality now even though I want to be vice versa. Don't get me wrong, I still have my crazy splurges: Chanel necklaces, Marc Jacobs hat, etc. But those are pieces that you can recycle and never go out of style. You can outfit couture with a pair of H&M denim (which is awesome since they have a Balmain powder blue denim jean right now!) with some Dolce&Gabbana sunglasses. My biggest splurge at recently was a MacBook because my PC which I loved, built, and had for over 4 1/2 years got busted. It needs to retire. It couldn't keep up with new updated technology. A laptop is totally practical in my lifestyle even though it's not in the recession sense.

I also had to cut back on purchasing magazines. I'm that type of person who is never satisfied purchasing American Vogue, W, and Harper's Bazaar. I will go through great lengths to drive 15 minutes away to this cute magazine stand that sells L'Uomo Vogue (Men's Italian Vogue A.K.A. THE BIBLE), Hercules, and the new British magazine LOVE. European magazines, although filled with rich content, GREAT editorials, and ACTUAL models on the cover, can be very pricey ranging from $10-15 a pop! These publishers know that they are very affected by this so most great magazines decided to be on the blogosphere and has found a new outreach to the fashionably yet recession-hit consumer.

Check any magazine website and they have blogs. Some even have blogs on blogspot! Great style blogs have surfaced such as BryanBoy.com, a 22-year old Filipino who lives in my third-world country of the Philippines, has become a fashion superstar, bumping shoulders with French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld and is a big Marc Jacobs fan to the point where Marc himself has noticed him and has named a bag after him in his Fall/Winter '08 collection. There is also a great blog that I follow run by fashion photographer Scott Schumann (thesartorialist.com), a man who had a passion for great tailored style, has become a big hit in the world, that he has landed a gig with DKNY jeans. He also modeled for the GAP!

And for the men out there! Check out contributingeditor.blogspot.com, an online magazine with great photographers and actual working male models. It beats spending $15 on a European magazine.

Sidetrack: I'm at Coffee Bean and I just spotted gay icon Carol Channing. My inner queen just came out.

Anyways, support you fashion sites. Because I want to be as impacting as them. As what Madonna told Dick Clark when he asked her what she wanted to do in the future during her starting "Lucky Star" days..

"I WANT TO RULE THE WORLD"





Yummy Yummy Screw, no?

Yummy Yummy Screw: Javier Beltrán Edition.

I don't know who this guy is but he looks yummy and tropical. He has a movie coming out with ProbsGay Twilight Actor Robert Pattinson. Who cares? Let's just stare at Javier Beltrán. Yummy Yummy Screw indeed.

Gisele, I Don't Like You Yet I Respect Your Craft.

As much as i rant about Gisele being crappy supermodel in the sense of her attitude and views on the fashion industry, she is a damn good supermodel. La Bundchen has narrow hips and tends to give the illusion of curves. She can do action shots as well as couture poses without starving herself. Take a look at this month's issue of Harper's Bazaar (a magazine which i totally prefer over American Vogue lately) where she poses as the supermodels of yesteryear such as Veruschka, Twiggy, and Jerry Hall. Don't bother reading her mini-interview because it's practically useless. In another magazine, she talks about Tom Brady's child as her own. That's such a slap in the face to Bridgette Moynahann...yet again. Get over yourself girl. As horrible to say it is..."Don't talk, just pose."


Girl...

I Am So Upset.

...my car got broken in. Nothing was taken but my Marc Jacobs umbrella. I'm guessing a homosexual homeless man wanted my Richard Prince print umbrella.

I'm so upset.

Fuck Grey Gardens. This is the fashion movie of this year!
