BUSY BUSY BUSY!


Sorry for the lack of bloggage/comments this week! On Monday Melissa, Dylan, and I shot 71 pieces for EBay. My assistant has been busy with school lately, so I've been doing everything myself - cropping and editing pics, taking measurements, etc. etc.


Last night I was up from 11am to 1am doing this, and I still wasn't done! Running a small business is a very time consuming, non-stop labor of love. You really have to DIG what you're doing, because you'll be pretty much married to it.


Tons of great stuff goes up tonight though, which I hope you ladies will love as much as I do. I scored some crazy 80s prom dresses from the estate of a gal who used to work on Miss Teen USA pagents. Hey, just in time for prom! And of course there's plenty of on trend mod, grunge, disco, etc. dresses too.


I have some great interviews and other stuff to blog about as well, so stay tuned!

AN (ALMOST) FAMOUS HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO RAQUEL REED!




I have two favorite models; Sassoon coifed, Rudi Gernreich clad icon Peggy Moffitt, and the heavily tattooed, teal haired alt. model Raquel Reed! At just 21 years old as of today, this gal's already a force to be reckoned with. She's a makeup artist for M.A.C. cosmetics, an alt. model who often art directs and styles her own shoots, co-owner of the t-shirt line Alumni NYC, and is now branching out into fashion design - her first client being Sarah Hudson of Ultraviolet Sound. I really love her use of bright colors, and Harajuku-esque take on high fashion. Raquel is a star on the make. Mark my words!

Happy birthday Raquel!



Someone should buy her a Stoopidgerl necklace, me thinks.
