Shabbos Yom Kippur
"Oggi sono lucido come se non esistessi. Il mio pensiero è evidente come uno scheletro, senza gli stracci carnali dell’illusione di esprimere. E queste considerazioni non sono nate da niente: o almeno da nessuna cosa per lo meno che sieda nella platea della mia coscienza. Vivere è non pensare."
Things I wanted you to know -
JG: some thoughts and actions to think about, and you should
To those who are fasting I wish an easy and meaningful fast.
May we all be inscribed in the Book of Life.

Some norms:
Don’t smoke. Smoking is no longer considered glamorous–that is soooo DEMODE!!!and so unhealthy, it will kill you!!!!and stay away from second hand smoke for it is worse than smoking itself!!!
Speaking of coffee, you must drink Macchiatos. Glamorous people do not drink coffee with milk and sugar!!!Really(smiles)

Sugar is evil.

Okay. Keep it simple, cool skirt, deliciously red inappropriately large bag (never in a bad way), CHECK OUT THE FLUFFY MINK CUFFS AROUND MY ANKLES, sparkly sparkly thin straps. And with all the insouciance in the world. Got to love her.

If you have Alaïa's atelier saved as a GPS pin on your iPhone--you know, "just in case"--you're not alone. My two sisters are shoe fiends, too, which is why I've memorized this extensive list of footwear vocabulary. After all, what's the point in an international debit card unless you can really put it to work?

Books are the perfect entertainment; no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn’t carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life.
THE LOUIS VUITTON PETITE-MALLE
along came the game changer tiny trunk—the Petite-Malle—let’s just say my Black Amex statements went from zero to 100, real quick.

"Envejecer es más difícil para la mujer"
Liberals vilify Wall Street yet embrace fashion & movie industries. We're not the ones w/slave labor and casting couches.
Age?Never ask the age to a woman! And I will say that many women as they get into their late thirties and early forties think that having bigger breasts makes the day....and I think the opposite....but as always, I respect everyone's choices as long as it does not affect me.

OLESYA MALINSKAYA HAs A FASHION BRAND CALLED “OLESYA MALINSKAYA FASHION HOUSE”.
I personally really like her dresses even though there are plenty of rumours online that she only copies other haute couture designers.
No matter what, many of the dresses are gorgeous – however - Alena Shishkova is trying on this green creation and not looking very convinced.
Sometimes things look different on picture than in reality!

a little take on Japan-日本,
Japan's unique use of the English letter "H" (always pronounced エッチ ecchi) to represent anything related to sex is one of the more famous cultural tidbits about the country. If a man or women thinks about sex overly much they are ecchi, and the most common way to refer to the act itself is エッチする ecchi suru, lit. "to do H." The term has been around qui te a long time, emerging as a slang term used by female students to describe BL relationships back in 1890 before changing to its current more general meaning by 1955. Most Japanese assume the letter "H" comes from the first letter of the word hentai, though this is only one theory. Alternate theories include that ecchi became popular as a result of the Marilyn Monroe film "The Seven-Year Itch" (the final word sounds very similar), which was released that year, or that the "H" represents the first katakana of the English word "erotic" (エロチック)

Dr. Rian A. Maercks is a talented innovator in the world of plastic surgery. There are few corners of the field that are not on the forefront of his mind as ripe for innovation and improvement. Dr. Maercks is perhaps best known for two things, his “Cold-Subfascial Breast Augmentation” and his amazing ability to create natural appearing beauty in the face. It is the latter that has led him over the years to coin the term “Aesthetic Facial Balancing.”

International Coffee Day
Yesterday at about 8am in the morning, illy issimo took over Downtown Miami with their truck and group of five beautiful baristas. It was a “Little Italy” of sorts for commuters heading to work that passed by the truck’s outpost off of Biscayne Boulevard and for commuters hoping on and off the Metro Mover station that was nearby.
When I say the brand name, “Boden,” what do you think of? Most likely you’ll draw images of brightly coloured catalogues, genuine model smiles, bold prints and happy days. Boden is a brand that loves to be loved. But they are anything but a brand that sits back and waits for the love to flood in. I can quite genuinely declare that I have never met a fashion house that works harder to satisfy their clientele. But let me back up a step here.
