Yes, that’s right - I met Mr. Vogue Editor-at-Large, Andre Leon Tally. He was at this Halston Retrospective at the Neiman’s in San Francisco tonight. He was very kind and when Cheryl (my colleague and boss at Academy of Art University) and I met him, he immediately knew what dress she was wearing and we [...]

A couple of weeks ago, I went to Macy’s Passport in San Francisco and I took Steve and Charles as my plus two.
There was lots of food and I didn’t get hit on once. However, Charles and Steve did. I mean, why didn’t I get hit on? I am an angel. I am ethereal. And [...]

Kenley, the retro Dita-Von-Teese-in-training, on Project Runway was cute and lovable at first, but now - the bitch just needs to shut the hell up and learn to take criticism.
For real, why does she think she’s all high and mighty? First she tries to “set Heidi straight” and then she questions Tim’s style suggestions. Listening [...]

And is it me, or is this season of Project Runway turning out to be mind-numbingly boring? I’ve tried to like it and get really involved, but I’m just not feeling it. So many of the designers are turning out to be annoying [...]

What do you do when you’ve already had Sex and the City fashion icon Sarah Jessica Parker on Project Runway? Well, you work your way down the “four cosmopolitan women in Manhattan” food chain and ask Brooke Shields from Lipstick Jungle to be a guest judge.
Okay, okay – Brooke Shields’ style expands above and beyond [...]

Thank God we were spared the third-person torture of the blue-hawked Suede. Instead we were subject to the incessant tanning talk from Blayne, Kenley’s irritating school girl giggling and a pair of skorts courtesy of Joe.
This week, the designers were introduced to speed skating Olympiad turned “Dancing with the Stars” hunk, Apolo Anton Ohno and [...]

Dino-Ray watched Project Runway last night. Dino-Ray has yet to be 100 percent entertained by this season’s batch of designers. Dino-Ray is already tired of hearing Suede talk about himself in the third person. Dino-Ray is about to write his take on last night’s show.
Last night our designers went out into the urban jungle of [...]

So this week, the designers had to make a garment out of “green” (aka eco-sensible) fabrics.
Sounds a little boring huh? Well…that’s what I thought too, until there was a little twist: the models had to pick the fabrics! What a way to fuck with the designers, huh?
When the models came back from Mood with their [...]

I think shiny, tight and short is the quickest way to look cheap.

Here are some supplemental pics from the 5th annual Fashion on the Square event this past weekend in San Francisco (they go along with this little piece I just wrote for Examiner.com)
All photos are by me of course…
