Oh Karl

Karl Lagerfeld is set to be immortalized in a…video game? Yes, you heard correctly. In the 4th installment of Grand Theft Auto which is set to drop April 29th, you can cruise around, steal cars and listen to Karl dj. While he won’t be a real character, the game’s radio station K109 The Studio will have Karl dj on air. They even had him pick his favorite dance and electronic songs to be feature. Of course, it wouldn’t be complete without some Karl Lagerfeld commentary sprinkled in.

Now how about that?



wish list (part deux)

Since my birthday is Thursday, I am making a wish list. A “things I would buy if money fell into my lap or I found a sugar daddy list”. We all know I have expensive taste – wonderful taste, but expensive. You can tell from my first list, which can be found here.

Duh. Apple iPhone.

 

 

Since I can’t have one of those yet, I will have to buy one of these to dress up my year old (I’m out of date, people! Out of touch with phone technology!), scraped up Blackberry Pearl. In pink, because I’m obvious like that.

 

 

I’m desperately needing a black nice bag. I’m kind of loving the Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Hillier Hobo.

 

My newest favorite movie. Enchanted.

 

 

A pretty dress. This dress also comes in shades of blue, which is gorgeous but I couldn’t find a picture of. I’d be happy with either though. MbyMJ Meredith dress.

 

 

And finally, my number one (which is also on my previous wish list). I seen this bag in Neiman’s right before I went to La Vegas and was practically drooling and had to be dragged away.

Miu Miu Large Bow Tote

 

It’s only $1200.

 

*dies*

It will be mine though. One day. I don’t care if I have to eat crackers for months.

 

What is on your wish list?



what a good night

Last night boyfriend and I met up with a friend of ours at Flyod’s. I haven’t seen that kid in forever, so it was pretty great. We wasted a little time and then headed to Smartbar for Diplo. It was the 3rd or 4th time I’ve seen him dj in the past few years and, as always, it was a blast! I ended up driving, so I didn’t end up drinking. Regardless, it was a great time. Except for the slimy, sweaty dude whose spasms (i.e. dancing) kept making him rub against me and it was disgusting. I walked in my door at 4:30AM, slept until 1ish and woke up feeling like I’m hungover. Still overall, I’m happy we went out.

Tonight will probably be me cleaning  watching Grey’s Anatomy dvds, ordering in and crashing early since boyfriend is dj’ing at Douchebag Bar. Hopefully, before he goes I will be able to go to his house to watch the Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton  documentary he DVR’d for me.

Happy Saturday!

FYI: If anyone is interested, The Sundance Channel will be replaying it Monday Feb 18th at noon and Thursday Feb 28th at 10AM.



couture

If I were rich, I would live in couture. Walk my dog, go to the mall, do absolutely everything, while wearing amazing pieces. I would be walking art.

Chanel: Paris Haute Couture Spring/Summer 08

 

Notice they are all wearing flats. I thought that was pretty great.

random thoughts on Friday

This entry is jumbled and random and a mess, but since that is the current state of my brain right now, it is what you get. Expect a coherent entry soon.

For most of the day yesterday, I thought it was Friday. Not like it really world have mattered because I am off today, but still. I had plans today to do a million things, things like go purchase my school books and go to Borders to see if they finally have Moleskine planners in. Seriously, I went to two places last weekend and their were none. Usually you can find piles upon piles of Moleskin planners. Who are all these bitches buying up all of them? I do not appreciate this at all, they are throwing off my new year!

I really want ice cream so that was on my list of things to do. There is this homemade candy and ice cream place kinda near by and oh man, it’s so good. A hot fudge sundae probably has like 37,000 calories, but it is so worth it and for the past couple weeks I have been having, I deserve two!

Really, I don’t know if I will do all those things, well school books at least today. I will probably wait to fight the crowds on Monday for my school books. Borders and ice cream will probably get done sometime this weekend. I’m just exhausted. I woke up at 11:30 and feel like I can go back to sleep. The stress of all this crap at home is just exhausting me. Right now, I am going to lay in my bed and go through google reader and read Oh No They Didn’t! until I feel like getting up, showering and going to boyfriend’s.

DUDE, what was up with Grey’s Anatomy last night? How are they going to mess with Bailey again? First, her husband almost dies, now her baby? You’re killing me, Shonda! Killing me! Christina holding Tuck’s hand? You may have killed me again because of the tears streaming down my face. BUT this Rose/McDreamy/Meredith storyline is completely stupid. Rose is annoying, McDreamy is a loser and Meredith is whiny and pathetic. She also needs to brush her freaking hair. Seriously.

I want a new phone. I love my Blackberry Pearl, but once they release the crack for the new versions of the iPhone, I’m buying one. It better work with my site, my Pearl won’t let me log into the admin part of my site and it’s annoying.


Victoria: again. Maya: 1 and 2
Posh Spice and Marc Jacobs? M.I.A. and Marc Jacobs? Doesn’t do it for me. I like them all on their own, even Victoria (so major) but they just aren’t Marc girls. What do you think? I think Marc is losing his damn mind. It’s showing in his designs too.

What are you guys doing this weekend?

P.S. It is still de-lurking week. Get on it.



Making up for my fashion faux pas

I had to redeem myself to the fashion world after that last post. I’m incredibly disappointed in myself. I’m glad some of you understand my reasoning! Purely functional, definitely not for aesthetic purposes. I have been in desperate need for some black pumps, especially for my own Las Vegas vacation, but I could simply not decide. Round toe, pointy toe? Patent leather? Regular leather? So many choices.

Thanks to Macy’s (still not a fan of Macy’s, give me my Marshall Field’s back!) and their buy one, get one 50%, off sale along with free shipping, I decided on the best of both worlds. TWO pairs of shoes.

The pointy toe pumps I really wanted were sold out, so I got these instead. They will suffice until I have the cash to indulge myself a little more.

I will write a real post soon. Promise. Enough of my shopping addiction for now…well, at least until something else fabulous comes along!



Rain rain go away

More like rainsnowsleetslush go away. It’s another gloomy day here in Chicago. I was trapped in my house last night. My driveway was a sheet of ice, there was no way I would have made it out without sliding into my house or something equally as bad.

I’m really hoping to get all my Christmas shopping done soon. I pretty much know what I am getting everyone so it should be pretty easy. There is only one person who I am unsure of, but I know I’ll figure it out! My methods of shopping are kind of ridiculous. It’s more of a “one for you, one for me” kind of thing, because I ALWAYS seem to find something that I just needwantomgjusthavetohave. I can safely say, I have yet to buy myself something! I’m waiting until after I get my presents done and then I can do shopping for Las Vegas.

Speaking of Las Vegas, I was talking to my sister and said what if I win a bunch of money? How awesome would that be? Totally won’t happen, because I doubt I will be hitting the gambling hard! It’s just fun to imagine what you would do if you won a couple grand or something. I was like hmmm, Miu Miu bag ($1200), Louis Vuitton speedy ($600), Marc Jacobs bag ($500) and then taking everyone out on me!

Plain silliness, I tell you.

That’s exactly what happens when you send a girl with expensive taste and a handbag fetish to Vegas!



Hip does not mean ugly

I went to this party at a club, I didn’t really know anyone, but the boy was dj’ing, so I tagged along. The place was chock full of hipsters. Dirty looking, asymmetrical haired, metallic legging wearing hipsters with big stupid glasses. I can understand trying to be fashion forward, but if all you are doing is going thrift stores and digging around in your parent’s basements for things you wore in the early 90s and looking for the ugliest shit, that is not fashion. That is fucking ugly. This is fucking ugly:

Getting wasted before you go to the club because you are too cheap to actually spend money or going up the bar and asking, “What’s the cheapest beer you have?”, just plain tacky.

The expensive art school education you parents are paying for is going to waste because you are too busy worrying about getting photo blogged when you go out next.

Or even worse, video blogged! You know because there is nothing better to do or more important than documenting each and every single move that party goers make. THAT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE.

I could totally call out a bunch of shit here in my city right about now, but I am not quite ready to out myself. I kind of like the semi-anonymity I have going for the moment, but I can tell you, the time will come soon. In fact, I’m sure if some people read this, they’d know exactly who I am, but for now, I’ll leave it be.

In due time though.

In due time.



Wish Lists

Since I am home feeling sick, when I should be out with my boyfriend, and there is no one to talk to on AIM, since they are all out enjoying their Saturday, I am making a wish list.

 

Things I Really Want (but most likely will not get anytime soon)

1. Miu Miu bow bag. Could this bag be anymore gorgeous? No, it couldn’t. I’m sorry, Louis, I may have found a new love.

2. Frye bootsTiff posted these last week and I fell in love. I kind of need them in my life.

3. A ring. I want a ring, it’s the only piece of nice jewelry I am lacking. I am loving these right now: a, b, c, d, e. I especially love the last one. Simple and pretty with a little bit of sparkle.

4. Lanvin boots. I have been lusting over these boots for months. Damn the $860.00 price tag.

5. Marc by Marc Jacobs Turnlock Wallet. Duh, I need a matching Stone wallet for my Stone Faridah bag.

6. Coat. I already have a coat, 2 actually, but I reallyreallyreally love this one.

7. Wristlet/clutch. I need a smaller bag for when I don’t want to lug around my big Marc. Something with some pop would be nice, like this Rose color. Or maybe a maroony/burgundy though, I need to look around.

Entertain me people! It’s 9:15 on a Saturday and I’m bored as hell.

What is on your wish list?



Backwards heels

Marc Jacobs debuted these shoes during fashion week in September, since this blog didn’t exist then, I didn’t write about them. They seemed good for the runway and good for editorials, but I never thought anyone would wear them out!

Parker Posy has obviously proven me wrong.

They look pretty uncomfortable. What do you think?
