Outside Marc by Marc Jacobs
A Dozen Red Roses
What a delightful surprise from my partner. He’s been pestering me the whole day whether I received his Valentine’s Day present and it was only until a wee bit before midnight that I got back at the hotel (after leaving at 9:45AM). I’m not the most patient person in the world so sometime in the afternoon, I asked him what he sent. I pleaded, “Oh for god’s sake just tell me what you sent me!” He jokingly said he sent a stripper. Alas, this is what I got…

The Italian Contingent And Me
After the Marc Jacobs show, I headed uptown, way up in the Upper East Side, to the super chic home of Nuno and Muriel Brandolini. They hosted an “informal dinner” for Emanuele Della Valle and Lifestyle Mirror. In the world of fashion, “informal” and “intimate” hardly means “informal”, especially when you have guests like my beloved Anna Dello Russo in her Yves Saint Laurent white ostrich number, Giovanna Battaglia, Daphne Guinness, Franca Sozzani, Carlos Souza, Suzy Menkes, Margherita Missoni and a handful of familiar Italians…

Texas State Capitol, Austin
No visit to Austin is complete without popping by the Texas State Capitol. Afterall, Austin IS the state capital. Rumi told me for the most part, American capitals are not the biggest cities in the state, ie the capital of California is Sacramento (and not Los Angeles), the capital of New York is Albany (and not New York City), so on and so forth.

Mean-Eyed Cat Bar
Quite possibly one of the most interesting bars I’ve been to. Imagine a real real American dive bar with bartenders with real guys with moustaches and beards etc in the movies where you sit on a stool etc… that’s what it’s like. Amazing!
South Congress, Austin, Texas
A visit through Austin’s South Congress (aka SoCo) is a MUST. It’s Austin’s coolest area brimming with great cafes, cute little shops, etc. I’ll post a list of my favourite places in Austin. Also, you MUST visit JO’s…

Slither, Hiss And Strike!
I have a love-hate relationship with the sun. I love the sun because I tend to be happier and more alive in the heat and I also don’t have to worry about freezing my balls to death. But then again, I hate it because the sun is bad for one’s skin, I sweat like a whore in church AND my clothing options are extremely limited. I picked up this Jil Sander spring/summer 2012 python print t-shirt from Luisa Via Roma in Florence two and a half weeks ago and I’ve been wearing it like crazy. Butch queen first time in drags at a ball! Here’s some Friday humor for you. Cheeky!
