fashion photography god mario testino leaves his mark, yet again.

i'm in chicago right now, tied up with all things beautiful and lovely, but i promise an outfit post in the next couple days!

aha. the above picture is a 'before & after' shot of my night last night. prior to smoking hookah, drinking espresso, & getting high--- and afterwards. oh, dear.

ta-ta for now.

a fresh start.

yes, i did delete my last blog "fashion frenzy gets me higher & higher". i'd like to think of that one as my practice round; it was my first blog and now that i have a blogging history, i'm expecting this one to be even better.

for instance, i'm going to post more outfit updates on this blog. i'm getting a new camera soon, so i'll get to put it to good use.

what better time to start than now?

my recent lookbook addition:

Vogue Paris May 2009:

have a spectacular week, darlings.
