Memories of Madrid: Working out with Rizal
Forgive me for my absence, I have been moving apartments — and Lord knows how fun that is. Nonetheless, I am continuing my European vacation nostalgia with my time in Madrid. I enjoyed the quaintness of Madrid. We stayed at a Best Western hotel where we could enjoy a rousing game of Conecta 4 in...
SXSW here I come!
Even though I wish I was there for the interactive and film festivals, I am headed to Austin tomorrow for a little South by Southwest action. Translation: I am going to Austin to get fat. I tend to plan my trips to Texas based solely on food: Hula Hut, Taco Cabana, Kerbey Lane, Chuy’s, Pappadeaux,...
Fashion fatigue
I just got back from New York Fashion Week…actually, I just went to one day of shows because I wasn’t cool enough to get invited to many. My reputation within the industry seems to be dwindling. Actually, I don’t think I had a “rep” to begin with… It is kind of annoying going to shows....
The highlight of my trip to New York Fashion Week
The highlight to my trip to New York Fashion Week wasn’t a fabulous show nor was it a celebrity sighting. In fact, it wasn’t even in New York. It was in the George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston. The highlight of my trip was my dining experience at Pappadeaux in the Continental Airlines terminal. Ever...
NY Fashion Week…AGAIN!
So I just bought my plane ticket and registered for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York. And I don’t even know if I could afford all of it! Well, lucky for me, I will not only be covering fashion week, but I will also be staying at the Hotel Le Bleu in Brooklyn and doing...
My role as Jake Ryan
The reason I went to NY last week was because of my friend, Janet’s b-day. On the last night, her roommate and our friend Erline wanted to fulfill her wish of having Jake Ryan sitting on a table with her along with a Carvel birthday cake a la Sixteen Candles circa 1984 (i.e. she wanted...
9 dollar cigarettes?!
Yes you heard that right. I know I should’ve blogged about this a while ago, but whatever. When I was in New York last week – Brooklyn to be exact – I was in desperate need to satisfy my nicotine fix. Yes, I have been trying to quit. Yes, I know it’s a nasty habit....
I am so immature
I took an extra long weekend and went to New York for some non-Fashion Week related fun. To get a little more cultured, I decided to go to the American Museum of Natural History and then the next day I went to The Met (a.k.a. The Metropolitan Museum of Art). I felt so refined as...
What the hell is this?
This is me (the dude in the vest) at Jen’s wedding. Judi’s bent over. I look constipated. Discuss.
New York visit photo montage: The MoMA
I went to Fashion Week for work at the beginning of February – and of course, all the time in Bryant Park started to irritate me. Ergo, the fashion shows started to irritate me. Even so, I did get to do non-Fashion Week stuff with my friends Janet and Erline: One day, Erline and I...
