Confessions of a Fashion Fanatic: Happy Friday!

Confessions of a Fashion Fanatic

The daily chronicle of a fashion-and-beauty obsessed, style-writing, pseudo-Angeleno who made her way from the Great White North to La-La Land -- otherwise known as Los Angeles, California -- and back again. Till the next big city calls out her name, that is.

: Name: Haute Hippie; Location: Everywhere and anywhere

I'm a Vancouverite who moonlighted as an Angeleno. My momma is the best in the entire world, and I'll argue you hoarse on that one. I've been in love only once in my life. The East Coast calls me but the West Coast is in my blood. Social butterflies -- and party animals -- are a great species. Fashion and writing will be the death of me, but what a way to go. Carine Roitfeld is fabulous. I would die a painful death if art, design, photography, fashion, music and dancing did not exist. Always kind of wondered why Smurfette was the only girl in town. I can't draw. Absolutely believe everything happens for a reason. I feel so lucky to have the girlfriends that I do. I'm a total sun baby. Think I might be a workaholic. I may have slight road rage. Ice cream and hockey are religions. I buy too many glossy magazines. Nothing beats someone with a killer sense of humor. Chivalry is really not dead. I'm a victim of minor vertigo and a serious lead foot. Always up for meeting people from paths different than mine and crossing paths with old friends. At the very end of it all, I want to be able to look back and say: Yeah, I sure lived a damn good life.

Happy Friday!

Nothing like starting the weekend with a good chuckle!

Thanks to Fashionista for posting this funny snap, though I think most of Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme victims would greatly appreciate more than a 20% discount.

But then again, beggars can't be choosers.

Happy Friday!

I'm Lovin' it: Going in for the daily 10am pow-wow/brainstorming session at the Radar DDB office downtown next Thursday. Very excited! Let the creative juices flow.

I'm Over it: Another cloudy summer day? Really?!

Music of the Day: Steph A. introduced me to Jack Penate, who hails from London. We couldn't really put a finger on an exact definition of his genre -- it's kind of pop, but also certainly has world music elements at times. Very likable, though.
