I’m still alive and you’re dead to me.
Hope @GetOlympus likes borderline artistic feel to these shots I added to the Pen Ready Project. My profile is #884. Creeeepy.

andy made a rain machine, i love the rain
I think it’s pretty most the time. Today was ok for walking, not too heavy, not soaking. Leather, headscarf, heels, a little wet but not much. “Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.” ― Andy Warhol

BEST IN THE WORLD
Mum rung me screaming at 5AM Sunday morning as if it was the middle of the afternoon. It was a very proud moment for Kiwis around the world. Rugby is our sport and we won the World Cup again! I’m so proud. I can’t wait to go back to NZ & see my family & go down to the Harbour where this video was filmed. When I was in NZ for Fashion Week I stayed at the Westin just around the corner from here. Thanks to my lovely friend Hannah in NZ for sharing this. I couldn’t help but have tears of joy. Pretty EPIC MATE!

Toronto Fashion Week – Buckler, Boys, Babes
Attended five events last Thursday night – two fashion shows in the tents, Movember media launch, Buckler at F-Stop and GSUS at the Hoxton. It was a workout. Lucky for us they were all close together. Living downtown is essential to making the most appearances in a short time. This is Sport Partying 🙂 Check this out – found three of a kind! We were certain a model farted. Pointing & laughing made the situation a WHOLE lot better. Kate snapped all these photos. She’s a darling. Me, always working. Yes, those are my real lashes 😉 Fritz (Fritz Helder) had the most rad Docs. Not avail at the Doc Martens store. He found them somewhere downtown but I will not reveal his secret! I love the simplicity of Buckler. The models were cute too. Check out Kate’s other photos on her flickr here.

Toronto Fashion Week: Sid Neigum S/S 2012
Now that the spring/summer 2012 shows are all finito, let’s take some time to sit back, relax, and reflect on the whirlwind of shows this season! One of the first ones I got to attend this season was Sid Neigum, a Canadian-born, NY-based designer, and it was love at first sight. I was especially a fan of his F/W collection, and was excited to see what he’d come up with for the lighter season! The opening of the show was great: dark and moody, all the models coming out and standing presentation-style for a moment. Props to Sid (or whoever) for opening and closing the show with beaut androgynous models (John Cherkas, Andrej Pejic)– it definitely worked with the styling. Lots of black for spring, which is a good-different, and mixed in are some teal (including an amazing bright teal/turquoise leather jacket with cutout shoulders! love!), copper, and tan. Great structured pieces, nicely contrasted by the more relaxed, colourful prints. My favourite: the dramatic-slash-hysterical leather eyebrows and intense ballerina buns, accessorized with long leather ties/whips by The Fashion Collective‘s Dwayne Kennedy, from his new accessories line Leatherheads. We saw some wooden flatform-esque type shoes that made the models walk like angry and uncomfortable, but beautiful, people. One male model rocked wedges all the way through! Overall, the collection had a very eastern feel (which might give into the collections name, “East Meets East”) and was very well done. Definitely a memorable show and many pieces are going on my spring/summer wishlist! x Carrie

Fashion: The Roaring Twenties
Emotion is an unlimited resource.
“Like power, you get Love by giving it” Page 53 Been reading this book. So many good quotes. It starts off with all these references to brands I’ve worked with and countless stories about New Zealand. I had to put it down a few pages in. I was overwhelmed by coincidences. (They’re not coincidences.) I’ve been in Love with the Saatchi & Saatchi brand for a long time. They’re a Lovemark of mine. Thanks Shannon for the gift, I love it. “Love marks of the new century will be the brands and businesses that create emotional connections with the communities and networks they live in.” Page 60 “Keep it simple: set high standards andthen exceed them. Meet, Beat, Repeat.” Page 62 Marcus Troy posted this today. If you don’t know him he is a smart guys & lifestyle blogger who really gets personal branding. Read about him on LegendsLeague. Page is from the book “Be Great”. I bought it after reading a few pages.
