Danger Diabolik!


...


I ask because recently I discovered someone had been using my Visa to play World of Warcraft! (Not very ambitious!) Then, when I mentioned it on Twitter, my friend Dawn told me someone had used her card to play The Sims! There are no words!


My answer:

I would take my inspiration from the movie Danger Diabolik... I would sleep in a pile of money & I would steal jewels for my best girlfriends! I would race around in a small sporty car & wear a black eye-mask. When I was tired from robbing banks & blowing things up with sticks of dynamite, I would book extravagant holidays in the Bahamas where I would lie on the beach, swim in turquoise pools & have luxurious beauty treatments… I would stock my pantry with black truffle oil & I would buy Agent Provocateur lingerie in every colour of the rainbow! I’d have a shoe closet which would bring mere mortals to tears. My secret underground lair would be full of chandeliers & fantastic wallpaper! & of course, I would spend a lot of money buying wonderful stationery, on which I would write cryptic & taunting letters to the authorities!




You need to see this movie!


Danger Diabolik!

What would you do with a trillion bucks?


P.S. I’m just about to dash out the door & go to a meeting, but as soon as I come back, I’ll post the winner of the Dress Gala competition! Thanks for your patience! xox

Just one question…

What’s your favourite outfit?

The outfit which makes you feel most beautiful, powerful, confident & capable… & when you think (or look) back on it, what does that tell you about clothing & your personal style?

(Now don’t you wish you were taking daily outfit photos?!)


Pour moi? Well, I couldn’t pick just one.

My favourite outfits

25th birthday (2008); in Hollywood (2009); San Francisco (2010);
East Village (2010); West Village (2009); Tompkins Square Park (2010).


After a quick look back through my Flickr account, I chose these six outfits as being my favourites. I remember them being comfortable, as well as feeling great & confident in them.

Clearly, pink is my power colour. When I wear it, I feel bold, powerful & invincible. Royal blue & turquoise have a similar effect. I love to cut my outfits with black, I embrace a cinched waist, & an a-line shaped skirt is my best friend. I feel amazing in Betsey Johnson designs (her pieces feature in half of the above outfits!). Oh, & I also feel more comfortable wearing something on my head than not!

I’d love to read your answers, & hear if doing this little exercise triggers any epiphanies!

Curious Tuesday!


Let’s talk marriage!

Love & marriage, love & marriage, go together like a horse & carriage…

1. How do you feel about marriage as a concept? Realistic? Romantic? A pipe-dream?
2. Do you think you’ll ever want to get married?
3. If you did get married, would you want a big blow-out celebration or would you keep it low-key?
4. If you are married now, how has that changed your relationship?
5. If you’re married, how did you celebrate it? Knowing what you know now, would you have done it differently?


Curious Tuesday!


The reason I ask is because my feelings about marriage have really changed — & drastically — in the last year or so. (Funny that this coincides with dating the best man I’ve ever met! Ha!) Additionally, now that Prop 8 has been overturned, I feel like the whole arena has a much more level playing field! YAY!

This week’s question is a simple one, but it seems relevant because Nubby & I were talking about it yesterday! Also, we’re kind of on our version of a family holiday right now!

What were your family vacations like?

Where did you go? What did you do? What always happened? What was the best holiday you took together? What was the worst?


I love this question because the answers are always so different. For example, Nubby’s family always went to a recreation of a Bavarian village in Washington! AMAZING!

My answer is below & I hope to read yours too!
