The Gap: Design Editions

The Gap, in partnership with the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund will debut it's second collection of white button-down shirts reinvented by emerging American designers on April 15th! This time around they enlisted Phillip Lim (!), Band of Outsiders, Michael Bastian, Phillip Crangi (to create accompanying jewelry), and threeASFOUR to design limited-edition pieces. Items will range in price from $35 to $88.


I'm particularly excited about the Phillip Lim, threeASFOUR, and Band of Outsiders pieces. Hopefully I will be able get my hands on some of it. See you all bright and early at the Gap on Powell St. in a couple weeks!

Weekend Rewind

I know, I know. Another weekend is here already and I'm still blogging about last week. I'll just note that this entry was written on Monday and only now am I posting it. Thanks! I would also like to share that once again I have a cold. What is this? The 4th time I've gotten sick this year and it's only March???!!! I just had a mug of Thermaflu so I just might fall asleep while typing this zzzzzzzz.

I didn't realize just how exhausted I was until Sunday night came around; I think I was running on pure adrenaline and caffeine! I came home last night after work and basically tried to convince myself that I had enough energy to eat dinner, clean, read, fiddle with my laptop, and so on. I gave up at midnight and fell asleep with my laptop still running on my bed and my book lying next to me under the sheets. I finally achieved the coveted 8 hours of sleep recommended by doctors everywhere! Hooray!

My weekend started on Friday and basically looked like this: work, sushi, Blow Up!, work, Frisco Disco, work, finally sleep

Blow Up! was entertaining as usual. There were so many beautiful boy, girls, and trannies wearing their Friday best :) I <3 the Blow Up Djz but this guy was pretty awesome too:


Come on people, Public wears a disco ball mask! +500 points. AMAZING. And he played Love Fool by the Cardigans! +1,000 points! which brought me back to my middle school days when Leonardo DiCaprio was still hot! +250 points.

On Saturday, I was called a bitch by a customer at work. OMG, I love this job!!!???

Easter was on Sunday and instead of frolicking at Dolores Park on such a beautiful day I was stuck at work. The only thing that made up for it was the constant delivery and consumption of Round Table pizza every 2 hours and the frozen yogurt and guava drink I had with D while people-watching at Union Square during our lunch break.

How is it Monday already???

Ladies and gentlemen, we are floating in space...

So please put your sweet hand in mine
And float in space and drift in time

"We Are Floating In Space" comes from a Spiritualized song I fell in love with while I was a college radio DJ in San Diego. I would usually start out my early morning show with this song, making sure that the volume was up high so that the listener could catch those almost hidden words spoken by a women with an accent in the first few seconds. I wasn't able to find a good video of the song being performed live but there is a video floating around on YouTube that some film student made for it. It's a bit disturbing but here's a link.

This blog will attempt to chronicle the life of a twenty-something year old girl from San Francisco with interests in fashion, art, film, television, nightlife, and technology. Hopefully, *fingers crossed* I will be able to update this rather frequently. In the meantime, check out another blog I contribute to: Heart Attack City
