Spotted!

Spotting Dree Hemingway wearing a light denim scarf gets me all giddy! The icing on the cake is that Tommy Ton exclaims that her style is "ah-mazing". A snazzy black ensemble paired with a denim scarf and tribal-patterned purse? --Heck yes! I gotta bust out my denim scarf more.

I'm OK

Just to assure you that I'm OK, here's an appropriate disco jam of the month coming at ya!

I hope you're OK, too. BTW, you should just follow me on Twitter. There's just no time to properly blog anymore.

I read this one morning while riding the subway.

Now the problem of love concerned him, mainly because he did not consider it a problem. Nevertheless, he was conscious of being unloved. This knowledge was like an extra heart beating inside him. But there was no one. Anna, perhaps. Did Anna love him? "Oh," said Anna, "when was anything ever what it seemed to be? Now it's a tadpole, now it's a frog. It looks like gold but you put it on your finger and it leaves a green ring. Take my second husband: he looked like a nice guy, and turned out to be just another heel. Look around this very room: why, you couldn't burn incense in that fireplace, and those mirrors, they give space, they tell a lie. Nothing, Walter, is ever what it seems to be. Christmas trees are cellophane, and snow is only soap chips. Flying around inside us is something called the Soul, and when you die you're never dead; yes, and when we're alive we're never alive. And so you want to know if I love you? Don't be dumb, Walter, we're not even friends...."

Excerpt from "Shut a Final Door" by Truman Capote

I don't know why I'm such a sucker for Capote's short stories.

A New Groove

Sorry for not updating for quite sometime. I've been trying to think of something to blog about but alas, nothing! Thank goodness it's March and I finally figured out a Disco jam to post. This song makes me want to dance sexy. If anyone sees this 12", it's MINE!


BTW, I love, love, love the different colored checkered jackets Omni members are sporting. And WTF is up with the thumbs up?

Blustery day

Sorry for laggin' on the bloggin'. I've actually got a couple of excuses: (1) I've been sick all week and currently have hearing loss, (2) my desktop computer that I just resurrected is once again not booting up anymore, and (3) Twittering is my new time-suck. Anyway, despite all the interesting Fashion Week stuff I've been hearing about on Twitter, I'm uber-uninspired to post anything. I'll just stick to talking about the Philadelphia weather like the previous post! It's funny... right after mentioning Edward Park's Summer photos, I swear Philadelphia was on the fast track to Spring. However, this week has proven my assumption wrong --we've gone back to the groove of Winter. It's been so cold and WINDY!

This photo perfectly describes how I've been feeling today.

Siberian Summer

Despite last week's little snow storm, the weather has actually turned nice and sunny here in Philadelphia. Although it's still below 50 degrees, I know I'll soon be missing the bitter coldness. After all, the grass is always greener, right? In the meantime, I'm trying to stay warm by looking at Edward Park's "Summerhouse Story", which comprises of photos taken during a Russian getaway:
