Confessions of a Fashion Fanatic: Why Is This Friday So Great?

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.

Why Is This Friday So Great?

Because I'm heading up the the Lazy River B&B with the crew for a long weekend of boating and floating on the river.

Because I spent a good part of the morning drooling over Alexander Wang's new Fall '09 accessories.

Because Sayn Design gold-gilded 500 iPhone for a limited-edition collection, and they're fantastic.

Because aesthetic changes are coming in the near future to Confessions of a Fashion Fanatic, and I want you to stayed tuned in! Happy happy Friday!!

Haute Hippie

I'm Lovin' it: My girl Steph A. bought these Dahlia Over The Knee Boots from Pour La Victoire for fall. Amazing.

I'm Over it: How do you make a mountainous pimple out into a manageable molehill? Argh.

Track of the Day: "Stillness Is The Move" by the Dirty Projectors. Brownie points for the title alone. And another few for having a llama in their music video.
