at a glance

I am really into do this weekly post of my week in iPhone-ness...I guess that is sorta what Tumblr is for, but let's let WL get DIVERSE, shall we?


OMG, It's Lisa! And Court! And a tiny part of one of Louise's pictures! ON THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE! (I am fully in the tractor beam of this show. I try to break free, and I cannot. Weak.)


Homemade baked egg & arugula pizza, no big deal


Took a walk through Central park to the Met, no big deal, part 2.


Have to take a better pic of this, my favorite outfit in a while: SPRINGSPRUNG. Hayden-Harnett denim trench, Lauren Moffat silk dress (thanks Lauren!), Happy Socks, Target wedges (standing in for the Celines. or Jeffrey Campbells. NEED NOW!)


Hunter's plate. First trip to Pies N Thighs. That is a straight up BALL OF FRIED CHICKEN on the top left there. Insanity. I ate my first hush puppy ever. It was ok.

Dear Apple,
I am so addicted to my iPhone camera, please let the next gen have a flash and a MUCH BETTER lens?
XO

someone told me that i like to roll deep

The captured moments of the past few days.


WHITE LIGHTNING, iPad steez


I think I heard of this once and it had nothing to do with soft serve.


Chicken, the number one Mexican in my life


ChloƩ doc boots redux, now in heavy rotation


THE BREAD ISN'T BREAD, IT'S FRIED CHICKEN. Ask Hunter, this was his idea.


I myself am quite partial to Wizard Peanut...you?

topshop day 3 a.k.a. el fin

Here it is..the final installment of my truly insane superfun bananas tenure as Blogga Photographa for Topshop's 1st Anniversary in New Yawk.

By Day 3 my legs were sore as hell and my patience for the Soho area as my weekend destination had worn a tad thin...but I think a good time was still had by all involved. Free cake does that to people.


PHIL CHANG CAME TO SAY HI! I WORE MY PASTEL-EST DRESS FOR THE BABY JESUS.

Sunday was the most mellow of the days (it was Easter, after all) but that didn't stop so many of you awesome WL readers from coming..thank you !!! I love meeting you all.


PEEPS PRESENTS & THAT POUCH WAS FULL OF CANDY! ALSO: TINY CUPCAKES FROM CHRISSY.

I have to say a special thanks to Kelsea & Michelle, 2 awesome girls I met that day who both brought me candy! I MEAN..I have the best blog readers ever.

Other visitors on Sunday included Phil, Laia, Keren, James, Ami, Chrissy, a girl with a Moncheechee, a girl whose hair was almost to her knees and a Japanese dude in a Dinosaur Jr tee.

The shenanigans level got a lil bit high towards the end of the day; of all the "props" present Theresa & Krista were the most popular and those two know how to take a photo...You'll see.




































































And the winner? Loan Tran !



This was Loan's second time coming by (you can see her in the Day 2 pics in a blue wig). This one might the hardest to describe as to WHY I chose her..she was just kinda magickal. LOOK AT THIS HAND JEWWREE.



She had on wings. And tiny hats. And wouldn't stop dancing.

And she is an accountant.
That maybe put it over the top for me. So she is the final winner, and I hope you enjoy the $250, gal!

I hope you guys all enjoyed these photo posts as much as I did.
I had so much fun with this project; thanks Topshop!

topshop day 1

When Topshop contacted me to be their "fashion blogger photographer" for their 1 year anniversary celebrations I was pretty psyched.
I had a vague idea of snapping pics in a corner and I heard there'd be tea & cake.

IT IS PRETTY THRILLING TO SEE YR NAME & BLOG
ON GIANT POSTERS, I'M NOT GONNA LIE
I had no idea what I was in for.
3 days and one night of a NYLON party later...I am exhausted but exhilarated and totally giddy. What a crazy and amazing gig. Thanks Alicia & everyone at Topshop!

I learned a few things:
People LOVE to get their picture taken. Jumping is a big thing, and if you have an umbrella as a prop people will LOVE it.
Apart from not owning any kind of footwear that is in aaaaany way near approps for standing 8+ hours at a time (the MARGIELAS were the best bet!!)..I think I am not bad it this kind of thing!

I had a great time. I had a dope lil' crew: Ryan my digitech guy and Krista and Theresa the hot crowd control/release paper giver outers/good vibes makers.

So many awesome and cute and cool WL readers came by; they brought me candy and we took pics together and they all bascially made my day.And to my friends (and mom!) who braved the hordes of Soho to come say hi: I heart you guys, big time.

THERE ARE SO MANY PICTURES! I shot like, 5-600 a DAY! I have been told that all of them will be uploaded to Facebook (not by me) and so I am just picking favorites to put here.
SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO here is some of the best of Day 1:








































And now for my Day 1 WINNER: Michael St. Rose !
This kid killed me. That hat, his head half bleached, shaved eyebrow, microphone jangle and those crazy sneakers. I LOVE the first pic. There were somany good ones..but he was sorta SPESH, ya know?






Good lord that took forever to get up; how do those of you with realllllly photo heavy blogs live your LIFE?? Are you just uploading shit ALL DAY LONG? Wowslers.


Tomorrow: Day 2's highlights and winner! (Spolier..it's a girl and she is in one of the collages I made in my earlier post!)

Special thanks to ADF for lending me equipment and being a top shelf friend.
