This was the third time I've seem them in the last year (they def think I'm stalking them...) and once again it was a fantastic show. A band I'd never heard of <span style="font-style:italic;">Night Jewel </span>opened for them and they were really good. There music is kind of chill, and sway-ee with a disco, dreamy feel. Kirsty picked up the record and we've been enjoying it on the daily ever since. Oh yes and I bought a record player a few weeks ago which was very exciting. I found some gold mines at VV boutique including the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, a Tears for Fears album, the Big Chill soundtrack and a bunch more. Music really does sound better from a record player. It feels like your more a part of it. Like your in the band even.

The shoot revolved around everything Road Dahl. Shot by Tim Walker this magical, imaginative ride features Tim Burton (who of course brought a few of Road Dahl classics to life), Helena Bonham Carter, Burton's partner in crime, and the beautiful model Karen Elson. It's a lot of photos to post but I couldn't resist. I feel like renting James and the Giant Peach now...

I was greeted by my dear mom and that magical -30 weather I grew up with. I've never lived anywhere else so this year I truly got that feeling of coming home for Christmas. I can't explain how good it felt to walk through my house. Not only was it so good to come home but also to a decorated home complete with a Christmas tree surrounded by presents and that wonderful Christmas tree scent. My dad wanted to make me a home-cooked, comfort meal so he made my favorite fried chicken, homemade fries, a delicious salad, and for desert homemade fudge by my mom. It's been lovely.<br />I'm also so excited, for the <span style="font-style:italic;">most</span> part, to see everyone. Last night I went over to Lana's for some wine, catching up, and a well needed tour of her closet. There were some newbies and some oldies but nonetheless all amazing. We then went to Cafe 22 and met some buds there. Feels good to be home.<br />Yesterday whilst unpacking I opened a dresser door and was excited and curious to find these two beautiful bra type cami's inside:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SUf77Ndn9SI/AAAAAAAAAcw/Pk2Piwxlxz0/s1600-h/SL381688.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SUf77Ndn9SI/AAAAAAAAAcw/Pk2Piwxlxz0/s400/SL381688.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280466082759963938" /></a><br />I immediatly rushed over to my mom and asked where they came from and if I could have them. She said she found them while going through some clothes and they used to be hers. Anyways she gave them to me and I'm a happy, happy camper.<br />I'm also extremely looking forward to having my roomies back home. On Friday these two gems will be joining us here in Winnipeg:<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SUf-j_mcJ4I/AAAAAAAAAc4/oncNF6y29dY/s1600-h/SL381675.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SUf-j_mcJ4I/AAAAAAAAAc4/oncNF6y29dY/s400/SL381675.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280468982436734850" /></a><br />And just for kicks heres a picture of Ryan wearing Kirsty's gold necklace.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SUf-5FF-TLI/AAAAAAAAAdA/lKnOWV7Df90/s1600-h/SL381685.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SUf-5FF-TLI/AAAAAAAAAdA/lKnOWV7Df90/s400/SL381685.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280469344688426162" /></a><br />xo xo<br /><br />AlAlex A.http://www.blogger.com/profile/08426414831777398463noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078675231669219787.post-90415918250938705292008-12-14T06:50:00.018-05:002008-12-14T07:29:43.156-05:00What does one do when she can't sleep?<a href="http://www.polyvore.com/dear_santa/set?.mid=embed&id=5181875"><img width="400" src="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-set/BQcDAAAAAwoDanBnAAAABC5vdXQKFlRGcjNpTnJKM1JHQkJCcW5DcHY4QmcAAAACaWQKAWUAAAAEc2l6ZQ.jpg" title="Dear Santa" height="400" border="0" /></a><br/><small><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/dear_santa/set?.mid=embed&id=5181875"></a><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/profile?.mid=embed&id=469487"></a></small><br />Create polyvore sets in which she can dream about!<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Martin Margiela trench, shoes from left to right: Stella McCartney, Azzedine Alaia, Nine West</span>Alex A.http://www.blogger.com/profile/08426414831777398463noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078675231669219787.post-55806934563930082782008-12-08T08:34:00.006-05:002008-12-08T08:48:26.371-05:00Pull out the champagne ladies and gents...It is indeed that time of year again!

As I'm sure most students are feeling right now it's that time to hustle and get s*** done ( I gotta censor, mama Ateah reads this). Anyways for most of the weekend I've been a busy beaver working on my final illustration project. The project was to create a line of clothing inspired by one outfit by any designer from any season. I struuuugggled with what to choose but eventually decided on a Valentino number. I loved the capelets so much on the dress I knew I needed to use it. I gotta give Kirsty Reid some cred for coming up with the name <span style="font-style:italic;">La Cirque Noir.</span> Anyways although I left it till the last moment I could I like how it turned out. Please notice the <span style="font-style:italic;">Lebanese Buns</span> in which a couple of the models are rocking. I know what your thinking "HEY those are Swedish buns!" but you...are wrong.

I found it somewhere on the internet and fell in love. It's from Vogue Italy in November of 2007. The shoot was shot by Richard Burbridge and was simply, and appropriately, titled <span style="font-style:italic;">Silhouette</span>. I loved it so much, and was on the prowl for some sort of new page heading, and used one of the photos for it. Feast your eyes and enjoy. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLjVI41FI/AAAAAAAAAYo/dWr7c9wNKhg/s1600-h/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2efa6c8833-800wi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 288px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLjVI41FI/AAAAAAAAAYo/dWr7c9wNKhg/s400/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2efa6c8833-800wi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270983484225672274" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLjHaLkcI/AAAAAAAAAYg/4o-UCL1FTtM/s1600-h/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2efa028833-800wi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 285px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLjHaLkcI/AAAAAAAAAYg/4o-UCL1FTtM/s400/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2efa028833-800wi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270983480540107202" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLiySw6SI/AAAAAAAAAYY/onGhEbXiLMo/s1600-h/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2f01f88833-800wi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 289px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLiySw6SI/AAAAAAAAAYY/onGhEbXiLMo/s400/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2f01f88833-800wi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270983474871855394" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLS9KjUPI/AAAAAAAAAYQ/LOf2diOJXxk/s1600-h/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f43332b8834-800wi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 285px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLS9KjUPI/AAAAAAAAAYQ/LOf2diOJXxk/s400/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f43332b8834-800wi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270983202912293106" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLSg69YdI/AAAAAAAAAYI/9zaI9cddghE/s1600-h/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2f01068833-800wi.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 280px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3Dby9h1xh1I/SSZLSg69YdI/AAAAAAAAAYI/9zaI9cddghE/s400/6a00e54ef96453883400e54f2f01068833-800wi.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270983195330699730" /></a>Alex A.http://www.blogger.com/profile/08426414831777398463noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6078675231669219787.post-10208241913897603762008-11-18T10:13:00.006-05:002008-11-18T10:29:25.379-05:00Polywhore.<a href="et?.mid=embed&id=4696097"><img width="400" src="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-set/BQcDAAAAAwoDanBnAAAABC5vdXQKFllxbGdOWU8xM1JHanlWbkYwc1FKS0EAAAACaWQKAWUAAAAEc2l6ZQ.jpg" title="badass ninja" height="400" border="0" /></a><br/><small><a href="/set?.mid=embed&id=4696097"></a> <a href="h?.mid=embed&id=469487"></a></small><br />I ALSO boarded the bandwagon and had some fun on Polyvore.

Clowns, costumes, bathtubs, Dumbledore like characters, live band, dancing galore... the whole shabang! That was a special for the UK show <span style="font-style:italic;">Skins</span> called the Skins Secret Party Special. Jason burned me the first season and I just started watching it today and love it so far. This clip is from 2007, I believe, when the show first aired. The show revolves around a group of friends and each episode focuses on one of the characters. I can't wait to watch the rest of the show... Also the band is <span style="font-style:italic;">Foals</span>, in which I thoroughly enjoy, and if I do say so myself the band is quite easy on the eyes particularly the lead singer...<br /><br />xo<br /><br />AlAlex A.http://www.blogger.com/profile/08426414831777398463noreply@blogger.com4
