monday after fashion week
Monday, February 22, 2010
Good morning everyone! Hope you had a great weekend! Come in, grab a latte and let's chat! I mostly took it easy as I haven't been feeling well, but did manage to catch an interesting show at MOCA on Saturday night. It was big, loud, and crowded, and I enjoyed it. One of my friends thought it was just a mishmash of art, but to me L.A. is a mishmash--so many artists and cultures converging here to live and work--that's what's kind of great about it.
And of course, fashion week is over and now everyone's trying to make sense of it. I spent the morning perusing Cobra Snake's coverage of the shows, fascinated as he turned his eye from hipster teenage parties to fashion week--loving the raw feel: From the ill-fitting clothes on Calvin Klein's catwalk...
...to the rumpled clothes at Marc Jacobs that looked like they ran out of time backstage to press them + crazy photos of the falling model.
Backstage at Herve Leger--even under the unflattering fluorescents these dresses don't look bad on a single girl--making it clear why he's still around.
Gorgeous work at Erin Fetherston--she just gets better.
If you've ever loved or even just been ambivalent about Anna Sui--this is the season to take a second look--she rocked it out of the park! More on that over at my usual Monday spot on Senora Cartera.
So tell me about your weekend--what did you do? I've missed you and promise I'll be visiting your blogs very soon!

I worked.. But it was such a Beautiful Sunday in Ft Lauderdale, That I took my kids (including Lulu my Bully) for a drive on the beach!
It looks like neutrals are blooming into something far more interesting.

OMG! If I fell in front of ALL those people I would just die! LOL! Great post. I love that bangs are coming back on the runway
Mary Jo,
Thanks for stopping by and joining me on Twitter. You've now made me curious about Anne Sui, and I will definitely taking a closer look.
Would love to chat over a delicious latte! Soaked up the sun this weekend in Oregon and took in a wonderful used book sale. Those are always such a treat.
Have a wonderful week.
loving the herve leger dresses

I would hate to be the model that fell. Sheesh. This weekend I'm back home in Alabama visiting a friend and going to wedding showers :)
I always feel awful for girls who fall on the runway. I imagine I would want to cry if it were to happen to me - I commend them for getting right back up and trying again! And Anna Sui...LOVE!! :)
you have slapped me with happiness with that first picture!! and good morning to me - cant wait til my next cup tomorrow morning!!
