CONEY ISLAND BABIES
Since planning a vacation for this month was next to impossible, I thought the next best thing would be to go to Coney Island. I prepared for the sudden bouts of displaced nostalgia! Its such a strange, other-worldly place. I'm still convinced that we were somewhere in California, and not Brooklyn.

ALMOST GREYSCALE
As the weather changes, as do my silhouettes. I've been leaning towards the dramatic, favoring the long "Lara" dress by Theyskens Theory. I originally purchased it out of necessity for the black tie Lady Gaga party two weeks ago, but knew that with the addition of a second layer I could easily make it casual. Today features the "Skull Cap" tank from my friends at Obesity + Speed, knotted at the hem to create my desired length.
These two images below have been haunting me. I hope they might haunt you too.

A SWEET ESCAPE
As I have been a terribly bad hostess so far (I've been working from 7am-6pm daily), I made a special effort to abandon everything work related on Sunday in exchange for some good olde local tourism! I'm talking the classic 3-hour vacation-style boat tour around Manhattan. Why not learn more about the city I've lived in for almost two years? And to be honest, sitting over the water with no access to a computer (or leather) felt a whole lot like vacation to me.
Summer casual, lace & leather shorts.
Adrian found this t-shirt for .50 cents. Can you believe it?
Healthy breakfast at Pies'n'Thighs
Some statue in the middle of the water
Healthy lunch on the boat!
I just kept wanting to sing, "I'm on a boat, y'all!"

SUMMER HASN'T KILLED ME YET
Still here. Hustling hard, enjoying friends, too lazy to bring a big bag around to accommodate my big camera. Too many exciting things around the corner, I beg you to please have patience. I often find myself thinking that every month is more crazed the the last, and June is no exception to this extreme. July will be frantic, August will be a race against time, and I don't even want to think about the pressure of September! But as much as I complain, I couldn't be happier with where I am, what I am doing, and who I am surrounded with.
The birthday girl gets red.
Look who's here from BERLIN!

WHEN YOU SHARE AN ELEVATOR WITH KAROLINA KURKOVA
...Surprise! What am I doing there? I really couldn't tell you. Had one of the more surreal nights of my life on Monday, after being invited to a celebration for Lady Gaga's CFDA nomination. It's always really bizarre to be standing next to individuals whose faces I have only seen in photos, or names I have only read in print. Not to mention an impromptu performance by Patti LaBelle! Being that it was a black tie occasion, I didn't want to bring a bulky camera bag so the only photos I took were from my phone's shitty camera (and immediately broadcast through twitter). I drank too much. My dress is Theyskens Theory.
