Yohji Yamamoto

Wise Words From the Genius Himself
"They must have so many angry young people. Being a fashion designer or an artist, you have to be angry."                                                                                                                                                  
"Black is modest and arrogant at the same time. Black is lazy and easy but mysterious. But above all black says "I don't bother you, don't bother me."                                                                  

"I think perfection is ugly. Somewhere in the things humans make, I want to see scars, failure, disorder, 
distortion."                                                                                                                           

"Start coping what you love. Copy copy copy copy. At the end of the copy you will find yourself."
                         
                                                                                                                                         -Yohji Yamamoto

So CHic

Spotted this gorgeous starlet at my mom's fashion show and I had to get a photo of her. Unfortunately I forgot to ask for her name or even permission to post this. So if you know her please let me know.

Paint Job

Its been three days since my last encounter with civilization. My food supply's are running low and I cant feel neither my hands or feet anymore, I don't know how much longer of this I can take... Just kidding. I love this house and can work on it for hours. Much thanks to my loving sister for helping me clean the first day of getting my lovely home, and to Manny and his family for helping me paint the second day. Sadly I was on my own from there after for what you see now is the result of three days of sweat and solitude. But thanks to it I have had a new found feeling of accomplishment and love for this one bedroom home. Its like a little baby iv'e helped grow.







Black or Brown (can you even tell?)

So much paint 

Amiaya

Does anyone else have a t.v channel comfort zone? You know the channels you like and don't really stray too far away from them, but what happens when your in someone else's house and they don't have the same t.v guide your so fond of? You want to know what happens? You discover greatness you never thought possible, and so this brings me to announce my new favorite designers. Though I must admit how disappointed I am of myself for not finding them sooner (For Shame!).

Without further ado I present to you the dynamic duo AmiAya, 23 year-old twin models from HamamatsuAmi and Aya Suzuki came to Tokyo at age 15 to pursue their dream of changing the concept of the meaning of ‘artist’ in Japan. Tired of the repetitive and lackluster of J-Pop, they began in once-hip youth district Harajuku, modeling for magazines like Zipper and CUTiE. They quickly became popular on the streets with their eccentric style and personality.
Their brand Jouetie is a combination of every crazy girl personality imaginable but be warned it is not for the weak of heart. Actually it sort of reminds me of a Japanese version of Wildfox. I've been fan girling over Japanese fashion for a while now but this does it, I'm moving to Tokyo and never coming back, thats right this is the last you'll hear of me because tonight i'm sneaking on a plane with two lovely dogs and changing my name to Scrappy Coco.




(Sigh) I wish I had a twin

Back Home

Finally back home! Not like I don't love living in paradise but there's no pain like being apart from your greatest love. I can sleep in your warm embrace for hours on end, Oh how I missed your soft tender touch. I don't know if I've told you yet but yes, I'm in a relationship and its getting pretty serious. Some people call it a bed, I call it love at first lay.

Enough of the bed talk and on about how amazing Hawaii is. For one Everyone should move there, go on pack your bags and hed for the nearest airport I'm sure the locals will love that. No but really if you can get past the humidity its heaven, We stayed in Honolulu and no matter where you are on the island your no further than an hour away from the beach, everyone was friendly and the local cuisine is to die for. At last a week was not enough and I have a longing to return to you (Whats that, no I only love you babe. Really I mean it don't get mad) jealous beds are the worst. You cant hold me down! I'm a free spirit I have many loves, I'm like a butterfly whereva the wind takes me ya know.

In other news school starts next week, cant wait for that. And maybe just maybe I'll actually go shopping for real clothes, or not what ever I'm in the mood for the day before.
