PS. I did my traditional pose tonight ...
partly because I couldn’t raise my arms in that dress, and if I moved around too much, uh … let’s just say it was a precarious balance to keep it all … decent. So. Sorry.
oh wowowowowwow
such an amazing night at the Lipstick Jungle launch (held over at Saks 5th avenue in the SHOE DEPARTMENT. And you could actually PURCHASE SHOES whilst mingling. how very, very fabulous.) As you all know, I don’t drink almost EVER. but I had two glasses of champagne tonight (on a practically empty stomach) and I am feeling goooooooooooood. I think I finally understand why people drink when...

"Stop Following Me! (On The Usefulness of Tumblr)"
I have to say, I totally agree with Ronen here. The point of Tumblr specifically (and having your own blog in general) is that you post what YOU want to post. There really is no “right” or “wrong” way to do it. I like Tumblr because it makes me less OCD about my posts. The platform fosters stream of consciousness sharing, with all the good, bad (and yeah, a bit of the...

WatchPlease be advised that this is not an exciting video. Also, for some reason there are 20 seconds of black after the last shot. There is no surprise at the end, so don’t waste your time watching. That is not reverse psychology!

My Day ...
Started with a call from Miss Meghan Asha, who’s back from Davos and just had some really exciting meetings she wanted to tell me about. It makes me so happy to watch my girl friends’ careers blow up … I can live vicariously through them! I’m doing spinning at 12:30 with Mary, then lunch with my old friend Matt Titus (remember? I used to do the weekly Relationship 101...
HOLY CRAP, I'm actually going to bed before 5 am...
In fact, I’m shutting off the computer in less than three minutes, climbing into my canopy bed and collapsing. Some nights you can handle small talk and some nights you just can’t. Tonight was definitely the latter. I was in one of those moods where I was simply NOT ABLE OR WILLING to participate in conversations which bored the shit out of me. I kept thinking “I will never...

DONE.
I just finished the final revise of my cover story, and I fixed it. I had to delete the entire beginning and rewrite, but I finally found my voice (4 drafts in!). It works, and I am so happy. Now I just have to get my editors to agree to it!! I wrote them this impassioned email about how I had to believe in it more than anyone else. I haven’t felt so vulnerable about an article since I...
