Guess what Sunday is darling boys and girls- ladies and gents? It is Mother's Dayyyyyy!!! And unlike every other holiday it is not the one where you can say, "isn't every day Mother's Day?" because the answer is, hell no- it.is.not. I am actually confused and maybe you can help me. What am I supposed to do on Mother's Day? Do I hang out with my children and go to the club, take a nice cold flat-lining dip into the pool with my three kids with their puddle jumpers on -who seem to have the skin of a sea lion and eat chicken "fingers" at the grill? The french fries are divine btw... Do I invite the in-laws and and my mother and father and have a big train wreck of a lunch with the kids at a restaurant- Where my nerves are in a kitten ball because Charlie ate a plate of ketchup off my new Gucci dress, Beau slapped the waitress on her ass, and Tallulah decided that in order to become completely invisible to all of us was to refuse to get out of the car. Charming bunch... That's a lot like Christmas, but they are our Mother's and that feels so right to have them with me and I love them. My sister is a single mother and her angelic child is like my fourth- so she has to come. She is also my bestie and makes all "holidays" more like the Madonna video than the real thing. I don't know how all of this works and who wants to do what? Do I do what I want which is get a 6-er, the book I have been reading for a year, and head for the dunes, maybe catch a movie? Then I am sure I would get lonely and/ judged. Isn't that crazy how that happens? You get alone and then you miss the chaos, we are absolute masochist- ALL OF US. Maybe there can be like a Manic Mama Monday- where it's all the things you want to do for yourself to take care of yourself without the guilt. Which is crazy real. Mother guilt and daughter guilt. Southerners and Jews are the guiltiest feeling people on earth, it is a tie. I have studied it intensely with my friends. You can conduct a test if you do not believe me. What happened to the days where someone had a nice long table on a lawn outside under a tree and the kids played and everyone wore white and there was lots of red wine and old people, oh I think that's the Godfather.<br />

So, lets talk gifts people. This is a topic where anything can go. If you are anything like me, I order my own things. Only because I know I have to. I have a last minute hustler of a husband and unfortunately he will bring something he found at the store on Friday and gift it to me on Sunday and it will be earrings made of genuine cotton. You can see his heart was in it, but missed the spot just a bit. But! when he is on point he is on point. Sometimes Herend and Hermes. The sweetheart is so unpredictable it's bananas. BUT! you can never have too much of the "H twins" and I'm not talking herpes. My favorite gifts are the ones the kids make. I love the questionnaires. Especially when they don't know my first name and guess I am 5. Once Tallulah said she loved riding trains with me and her favorite memory was when we rode horses. Neither happened, but I love a dreamer. So, for her next birthday we are taking a train to Danbury, Connecticut to pick out a mildly tempered Arabian with an unpronounceable name. This year I bought myself a little gold bracelet with "Mama" on it. Stella and Dot makes these and it was a breezy hundo. It is perfectly crafted and delicate just like the word engraved.<i> So true</i>. I also bought a bottle of Vaniglia del Madagascar straight from the Farmacia SS Annunziata, which sounds like a prison I have been in, but is actually a company that specializes in perfumes or parfum and dates back to 1561in Firenze, Italia. It is delightful, light and takes me back to a place that I lived and studied for some time in my late teens and early twenties. I feel like such an idiot saying parfum, do you? I have recently fallen head over heels for designer Jules Reid brought to my attention by fellow blogger and pal Teggy French (you must check out her blog). I bought myself<u> a</u> 4 dresses too. I cannot wait to show them off for you because they are unique and vintage inspired with a West Palm -60's twist. I just want to climb into a Slim Aaron's photograph and just- you know, fit right in. Needless to say, I'm good and I have informed the husband- no gifts I handled it like a <i>mother.</i><br />

Mother's Day is not just for women with children, if you have a dog, a cat, or even a rat,which, I learned are extremely clean animals especially when kept domestically (not gotta happen)you are a mom. Not everyone can have children, wants children, or considers their children that are human beings to be their "kids" You mama's out there with fur babies are just as crazy about your little Cocka-Poo named Puddles as I am with my own kids. So here's to you. And to you wounded warriors who brave every day without your mother, may God bless you and comfort you. My heart is heavy as a cinder block thinking about it, but as you grow I pray you make new memories with your children and husband, puppy or wife and look graciously at your cherished memories, and celebrate the day exactly the way your mother would have wanted it. You are my heroes.<br />
To "MOTHER'S" wherever you may be or whoever you are with this year, I hope someone whispers in your ear you smell like sunflowers, or that you're prettier than pinecones. I hope that someone takes up for you because you didn't deserve to be treated like that dammit and someone rubs your back <i>that </i>way or puts your hair behind your ear because they want to see your pretty face. Just find a way if it is only for a moment to get yours. I'll be at the theater seeing a movie, sun-burned on Monday with a beer buzz. <br />
<br />
Godspeed and Happy Mother's Day,<br />
Cha-cha<br />

ps. I have a iron lady mother, tough as nails, pretty as a picture, and mean as the dickens. I would not mess with her, but I would not leave her alone either. She is 18 at heart. Has taken me to 15 different countries and other extravaganzas a girl could only dream of. She has spoiled me, but not rotten. I am grateful. She believes in hardwork. Although she likes to dictate it from the sidelines. She is outrageously creative and her sense of fashion is untouchable. Sometimes when she is being a 5 on the manic scale I want to climb in bed with her and pop open some bubbles and watch indie movies with her eventhough I have to stop and explain it every five minutes. Maybe place a few drunken Neiman orders for good measure, jk. I love you Mama.<br />

It has been a long time Fillies and I apologize. I was in the midst of bouncing one kid on one knee, warming another in the bakery, and discussing with God the intentions of a third. All of that wrapped with a heavy dose of postpartum, being incredibly overwhelmed with how to even be a wife, keep my writing gig at a local magazine and being a good aunt, sister, daughter, friend, cook, house keeper, and look somewhat like a fashion stylist was damning. I showered oncely, meaning once a week. I STILL sleep in the same clothes I wear the day before, and I am on my knees most of the time!!! scrubbing the floors with baby wipes people- that was a good one- haha. I am perpetually late. The gym is used for their giant neon clock outside to show me how late I am. I am coming around and sitting here just writing this first post is my first step towards freedom. Let me make myself clear. I have a 2, 3.75, and a 5 year old. I don't experience a lot of FREEDOM. I yell a lot out of fear, I am angry most of the time, and I am scared that something is going to happen to one of my kids while I allow them to just be free. So, I sacrifice my freedom so they can have theirs. I am a ball of anxiety, so they can run down a gravel hill as fast as batman, jump in a wave that will crush them, jump off a bed that will send their feet into their abdomen. My loss of freedom is their laughter, tears, sweat, growth and pride. <br />

If you don't know, which is crazy if you don't-she released Saturday April 23rd on HBO an 11 track video of her new album called none the less, the tangy, yet refreshing beverage: Lemonade. Tracing an apparent story of infidelity all the way to its reconciliation. The visual album was split into music videos offset by chapter titles, for example, "Intuition", "Denial", "Apathy", "Emptiness", and finally "Resurrection." Throughout these videos Bey would read poetry aloud from the exquisite must read Somali-British poet, Warsan Shire. And from what I have gathered someone named Becky better call Saul, because she is going to to need a new identity, name, and homeland. If I was Rachel Roy(the suspected mistress) I would honestly go to the best plastic surgeon in the UNIVERSE, bleach my skin, go to my hair stylist and dye my hair strawberry brown , actually F that. I would just call Saul. Witness protection. All. The. Way. I am going to state some facts. The Beehive is for real. The BEY-gency is on point. Beyonce has 68.7 million followers on Instagram. That is two Canada's. That is a lot of loyal people that are buzzing for Bey. Becky with the good hair should start dreading stat. Pull her split-ends. Bleach with peroxide. I don't know change her name back to Rebecca. They Bee-hive is worse than Zombies. I am trembling as I type. But here's the deal: Beyonce has an estimated net-worth of $450 million. Jay-Z has an estimated net-worth of $650 million. So, filliminas lets do some basic arithmetic, yes- that's a BILLION dollars. Beyonce is not only incredibly attractive, amazingly talented, and independently wealthy, BUT she is also able to get her heart hurt. That's right people she is just like us. And that is what is so precious about one of the messages she conveys in Lemonade. Sometimes people may seem like they have it all-even billionaires with two Canada's of fans, but their rapper husbands still cheat on them. And someone just hit the hive... with a bat.<br />
Now lets talk about what she was wearing because I am from the south and I was feeling the low-country all over the place. The white Antebellum dresses, the big puffy sleeves, the rain boots with the african print high-low dress whaaaaa? I cannot pick a favorite. I can pick an un-favorite. I'm just not a massive fan of athletic gear and I have never really seen her in it, so I was less than impressed with the "top" (sports bra) and "yoga pants" by Yeezy in "Don't Hurt Yourself." The fur Hood is dope by Air. I bet she was very hot after getting so amped up, throwing some serious threats in that parking garage. But, the mustard sensation by Peter Dundas for Roberto Cavalli in "Hold Up" had me wanting to go buy a billy bat and just get some rage out. I mean seriously just dress up in a one of my nicest gowns and bad ass shoes which hers were Yves Saint Laurent, by the way, and walk down my street and hit some magnolias or pine cones, maybe a squirrel if I can still run in heels. And I can only imagine me and my cha-tourage sitting on my stoop if worse came to worse, waiting on the whomever hurt---and I know one thing I would still be holding my billy club, BUT Beyonce had on this peach Rosie Assoulin off the shoulder top- maybe mine will be lavender and Chelsea Handler's Phelan top will be hunter green...Another huge favorite off the album song wise is "Sorry". You know the song where Beyonce is lounging in a chair with Selena Williams bopping on the side like a dog in heat. I am not hating. She looks real. And Beyonce is killing it in her crystal body suit by Kuwait designer Yousef al-Jasmi. I believe the middle finger will make a remarkable come back because of Beyonce. This is how powerful she is. People are going to be told to f-off through sign language alone. Damn Becky. Emojis were on the tipping point with their last update- well done Apple. And last, but certainly not least the cone-bra quick- shot a la Nefertiti style by New York based Zana Bayne- an homage of sorts, I am sure of it. And her ball gown with the scary demon face glow- that beautiful orange geometric pouf by Lebanese designer Nicolas Jebran. Latif Jiddaan!!!<br />

So, I guess the question is what does a white, fashion editor, stylist, and blogger, mother of three-And yes it is very necessary I mention all of these things and I should probably add that I have long blonde hair, put lemon on everything, have never met Jay-Z, never will, and that my skin has gold tones in it kind of, that my second toe is longer than my first. Ok, you get the point. What do I get from Lemonade? What would I draw from this album? I am not an oppressed black woman. I have not experienced adultery. My parents are still married. My friends kids have not been killed by something crooked in the Justice system. But, I am a woman. I stand up for the woman. I stand up for the mothers. I stand up for the grandmothers. I'll carry you when you cannot carry yourself because you and me are no different, because we are women. You may have been hurt, but I can watch and feel that hurt. I can picture that hurt on me, like a dress I can try it on. It does not take a color or creed to have empathy. So I will not be forced into making Lemonade into something that has one vision, for one race. I will apply it to my life. I will listen to "Freedom" and think of me and my children and when I drop them off at pre-school I will blare the radio and sing to the top of my white fucking lungs<br />

<br />
So, recently I have sat around perusing my magazines and thinking to myself what if I could afford my essentials the way I wish I could. I don't know about you, but sometimes my "want" list is a whole lot different than my "need" list and which one usually wins. But, a girl can dream right and if all my dreams came true these are the new items I would be shopping for. I am going to my 15th high school reunion and not to just any high school- Saint Mary's High School where I boarded for two happy years. These are the outfits I will similarly pack. I wish I had these actual items, but I will work it out.;) As you will see, some are totally affordable, but some will go on a wish list. Either way as I was developing this dernier cri I did notice an outfit that is a must and totally interchangeable from below. I would love to wear the Tibi skirt with the Rag and Bone T tucked in and the lovely baby blue pash. I could also wear the same white t with these awesome Lilly jeans- which by the way are much more vibrant in person and have a wide waist that sits very low, below the bump! I have tried them on and as my sweet sister was trying to secretly purchase them for me someone else snatched them up. At least they are revered. I stumbled upon this bag and if you can get it for yourself, may I please borrow it? I have been dying for a Faberge Egg pendent necklace. They are magically beautiful in person and would be the perfect piece of jewelry for Spring and Summer. These Zara wedges would be the cherry on top for both weekend outfits and of course this sea-green Mossimo onesie and beautiful Tory Burch tunic would be the icing on the cake. I would wear both the tunic with the skirt and belt it and the tunic with the jeans. The tunic poolside works too, but only with these sicky sweet heart shaped sunglasses by Moshino. <br />

Dear life lovers, do you just lovvvvve Easter? I do, and cannot get enough of it. I love starting traditions and continuing old ones. At my house the Easter Bunny held a pretty high level of importance. I loved Peeps and and getting swimsuits from J. Crew. My mother decorated our house with AnnaLee figurines and everything is pasteled. I have included some of my Easter favorites below. I hope you all Easter Bunny or not enjoy this long weekend and at least make Peep Smore's for God's sake!<br />
Godspeed,<br />

<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">So, I won this super awesome coat! The images below are how I would style it. I had so much fun writing the Valentne's poem- A. Because I love this hoilday and B. Because receiving this gift from HD was such a huge deal to me because it is so well made and magically crafted. From the looks below of their Fall 2012 collection it is going to be hard not to wear all of these things underneath my Peppy Jacket. I will also be skinny as a twig after having my second child in July. I am obviously kidding. I will look forward to snuggling into this fashionable coat and styling it in a google ways than I have already displayed for your viewing pleasure..</span> Check out my interview with Jen Dixon!!!</div>

If Mary Tyler Moore bumped into Bianca Jagger and mixed together at a Soda Pop shop while having a milk shake before seeing a foreign film on a main street in a southern town- this would be a Hunter Dixon moment. They exude sexy, feminine, classical, whimsy, saavy, and chic. Hunter and Jen are the pretty faces behind the designs and are all of these things mixed together like a bread ball( take a piece of white bread and roll into a ball and eat- favorite snack as a kid, no kidding.) Like magic and mystery they have something to covet and hold on to- watch out world these darlings aren't going anywhere.<br />
Godspeed,<br />

Latest Dernier Cri*</div>
So, whether you have ever been with child or not I feel it is vastly important to ask yourself one question. What if I could buy a garment of clothing and wear it through all phases of my life? This includes the "I'm fat and bloated" days with el period and days that you feel super sexy and svelte after training for that half marathon. But the good thing is that this piece of clothing also has your back when you are in your first trimester and you have not told people you were pregnant and you "feel" huge, but you are really not, BUT the stomach looks like you might have just drank a twelver. It still sticks around and fits when you are wobbling around in your 10th month of pregnancy. (yes I have been told we are actually pregnant for 10 months!) And I am not sure about you gals, but even after I had a my presh I felt like I was thinner when I was pregnant because everything was at least tight, this same dress, shirt, cardigan, still envelopes you and makes you feel good. Well, my friends welcome to the Hatch Collection. These items of clothing are the mid-wife of your wardrobe, they are the childhood best friend, they are "the sisterhood of the traveling pants" kind of clothes. They stick with you, help you through, and make you feel good all the way. Maybe they are magic? I don't know about you, but I find something very attractive about investing my jingle in something that is so amazingly made it can pull this off. Apparently my friend the designer knew what she was doing when she came up with this concept because it is the first I have ever heard of. My, if you could patent that! Enjoy browsing the collections below and please join me Saturday the 24th for a trunk show featuring the new Spring Collection and in addition the designer will be present having freshly flown in from the BIG APPLE. You will love her as much as you love the clothes. Come be a Hatch hound with me- this will be great access to a fresh new concept that is taking over the whole idea of phasic clothing See below...<br />
Godspeed,<br />

Latest Dernier Cri*<br />
So, my life has been crazy lately. From being 22 weeks pregnant- is that 5 moths yet? To throwing my daughter's first birthday, to finding out I was not having another little girl, but a boy. Is that enough? To throw in the mix a few writing deadlines... I am alive. I survived the 1st birthday blues and all is well. What am I ready for this weekend? Some peace of mind- that's right and what do I get from the images I am going to share with you? Let's just say if it was a milkshake it would be Neapolitan,, peanut butter cup and pralines and cream all swirled together. Yum, that actually sounds pretty delicious, I hope you all have a nice weekend- despite the rain (where I live. ) I am going to find some peace whether it be in watching Tallulah's pet squirrel Stanley devour a Mum Mum or if it means eating a cheese steak in bed atop a heating pad. Wherever it is- I am coming for it with tangly hair and baby on my leg and a baby "boy" in the belly. Go get yours too. <br />
Godspeed,<br />
Chacha<br />

I was recently going through my wallet when I noticed a folded yellow piece of paper. I opened it to find what "I" thought would be the fashion trends for 2011. You can snicker or shoot the bird when you hear this, but I have thought since I was younger I had thought I had innate ability to predict what was going to be the hot new trends. It was not until I got to F.I.T that I realized this "E.S.P" was actually called fashion forecasting and people got paid to do this. Anyway, there are a few things that I feel personally responsible for bringing to the forefront, but I am going to keep this to myself- maybe and just read off my list what I thought would be the "it" items for the year of 2011. I think some will peep their head into 2012<br />

So this was my list...I have tons of things to add and predict for 2012. Since I think I am ahead of the trend let's see if any of these things become more true for this year. I think we will see lots of animals. I don't mean leopards either. I mean dogs, birds, whales, and kitty cats. In the mean time I am going to make a bubble gum pink jean vest to wear with a long evening dress I have by Ghost. I will post pictures-trust. <br />
God speed,<br />

Latest Dernier Cri*<br />
<br />
Hello World and devoted readers, I have missed you and thank you humbly for your determination to get my Shaq hands back on the keyboard... Did you know I can palm a basketball? I am, wait for it, PREGNANT again and for some strange reason with the surprise of being pregnant for like what feels like 735 days straight I go straight to the dogs. I lose my lust for life and become consumed with my physiological state. I have been nauseous my entire first trimester and have eaten enough Nauzeme to turn a mauvy pink hue. If that could just happen on the apples of my cheeks it would be perfect. I call my first trimester "the Darkness". I go somewhere uncontrollably dark and cannot find the light. It simulates depression, but I really want to be happy and I feel like being happy, but this incredible hormonal tidal wave knocks me down and makes me throw up every time I brush my teeth. ANYWAY-- it is over and I am past the three month hump and feel like a little blue bird on the first day of Spring. My belly button is starting to be an outey again which disturbs me and tickles me all at the same time. Henceforth, I have a sense of humor again and can write my witty bitty Dernier Cri. The Golden Globes were full of hits and misses and I have to say the year for movies just-- well kinda sucked. Thank God television has started making watchable hits again. First, I will start with the fashion with none other than Elle Mc"Fierce"son. Are you kidding me, she is a Thoroughbred if I have ever seen one. She gets better looking every second, yes, second. Also her hair is pretty and her jeweled bangles were to die for. I don't care why she was there. It is called eye-candy and she makes people happy, or maybe she makes men and lesbians happy, but she made me happy too. She is also what I refer to as a "double dessert", a Blondie/Brownie. The rare binary of having blonde hair and brown eyes. Emma Stone looked a wee bit goth, but I really love her, so she looked great. (The Help for me was undoubtedly the best movie of the year.) Not as great as the coral Calvin Klein dress from last year, but great. Claire Danes, I like you I really do. Temple Grandin made me think of you as an accomplished actor, but black and white? Did your White House- Black Market have a gown sale? Plus, your make-up looked scary and done by Kristen Stewart. Congratulations otherwise and please don't f up at the Oscars. And please bring your hottie husband Hugh Darcy. Michelle Williams, you nailed Marilyn Monroe in what was otherwise considered a waste of my time movie. I thought you really captured the essence of her idiocy all the while embodying her vulnerability, fragility, and innate sexiness. Well done. Your dress I can live with, you are different, but the head band, just grow your hair out already. Charlize Theron I barely saw you because you just blended with your own skin, lose the head band and go brighter or bluer. I would like to see you in a color one could find on the beach in a piece of sea-glass. Angelina, it is so obvious you deplore Ryan Seacrest, but when you throw your accent and belittle him on the red-carpet it makes me want to kick you in your protruding hip bone and honestly what kind of example are you really setting for those starving kids you visit every where by being so skinny?. Did you know in their country you are probably found super unattractive? I bet you are rushing to your nearest In and Out to get a Double/Double with french fries "animal style". And lose the fake accent, it sounds stupid. You are from California. That's it, just California, so stop trying to sound all dreamy and foreign. Just California. You have no accent. Heidi Klum, your hips don't lie and the fact that you have had 4 kids and still look hawesome. (hot+awesome) I am a wee bit annoyed, but at least your dress was really, really bad ass. The turquoise was to die for. Jessica Biel-- I could have hated it, but I did not. It was like a foreshadowment to your future wedding with Justin Timberlake. It was Victorian and sa-sa sexy. Madonna. First, I would like to start with saying I detest Madonna. She has always made my skin crawl. I am sure I am the only person in America and beyond that that feels this way, but it is the truth for me. I did not like her style in the 80's, 90's or 2000's. She also adopted an unknown accent, not to mention a new religion and identify every year. I will add something positive by saying I loved the music from Dick Tracy and Evita. I also liked a Dolce and Gabbana suit she wore when Evita first came out and also a Tom Ford for Gucci suit she rocked a long time ago, but that is it! Let's all take a moment to reflect that she is from Michigan, was Catholic, and loose as a goose. She rose to fame and has taken many prisoners along the way, and this would all be cool, if she was sweet as Michigan apple pie. But! She thinks her shitake doesn't stink and that bugs me. I think the truth prevailed when she accepted her Golden Globe for a song I have never heard of and a movie I am actually dying to see W.E. (she directed it) She tried so hard to sound intelligent and fell short at every "UM". I started getting really uncomfortable and tiny bit embarrassed for the material girl. She honest to God was trying so hard. Put it this way Megan Fox would have done a better job, nuff said. I hope. The big winners of the evening for me were all the ethnic attendants . Sofia, Salma, Frida, Octavia, Viola-- you made my night. You girls brought the spice and the charm and the gold to the Globes. With it being Martin Luther King Day, I feel there was something that would have made him happy about that evening. Races did come together and the ones made weak by past adversity showed up strong and well spoken and breath-taking, and humorous. These ladies made my night. Modern Family never disappoints and once again I was pleased as a pickle for their win. Reese- bow chica wow-wow! Zooey- that little annoying side burn ruined it for me- but you are still cute, Natalie- your dress reminds me of a Barbie I owned in 1986, and lastly Paula Patton who I would like to refer to as Miss Golden Globes Congeniality 2012. She posed on the red carpet with what must have been 100000000 different angles and facial contortions. I was starting to get a migraine from her angles, air kisses, and fake laughs. I mean she was hamming it up more than Chapin in a silent. It was so over the top I started to question her sanity. I then watched inside the awards show. When someone won she would give them a standing ovation like she was their wet nurse from infancy. It was humiliating. I felt like someone needed to take her to a side and tell her to "stop, just, stop". Please google it. It was weird. Who the hell is she anyway? Well my little fillies, I have missed you. I have made it through the "darkness" and I am 14.5 weeks pregnant. I will try not to bore you with my personal life too much, but you will hear about it and it will probably make you laugh. Here's to being pregnant in 2010, 2011, and 2012. Can someone say "birth-control". Just kidding, I am honored and blessed by God's willingness to shine on me. I am a moon beam and so are you, and so are you.<br />
God Speed,<br />

So what can I say, I have been MIA. Only because I have had to work a lot and had a couple writing assignments due. This is no excuse to leave you hangin'. You deserve to know what some pretty amazing gifts are to either get yourself, get someone else, or ask Santa for. I hope he had a good year because some of these babies are EXPENSIVE. I like to dream big and go "The Secret" on my wishes. This means I am willing these item from the Universe and mind you I have already received and given some of these things so things are looking up. I really do not ask for much for Christmas. I just ask for simple things like this Nars lipstick in Schiap, I hope my sister in law gets me.<br />

She usually loads me with Kiehl's products too, but I use my goods so sparingly that I still have some left from last year! I have been wearing this musk for three years now and I love it. I also love candles and cannot have enough of them, my favorite of all times is Kyoto by Tocca. I cannot find this anymore and have switched to Baies by Diptyque. They have great room spray too.<br />

I love the Nike ID shoes and designed a couple pairs in my time. My sister designed me a pair of Air Cha Cha's last year and I loved them. I asked her for them, but told her she would get to design them, they cost $110 and are so light weight and so cool. Mine were yellow, hot pink and turquoise. She nailed it! They are like the Gwyneth Paltrow and Cee-lo Green duet of shoes. I received an early gift from my mom for my birthday which was this hounds tooth hostess skirt from Talbots<br />

Most of all what I wish for all of my readers is peace- peace of mind and peace on earth would be really nice too, I also wish for you laughter, lots of it. Because I personally feel it IS the best medicine and makes life and trying times a whole lot easier. I lastly wish you all love. Without love you cannot have peace or laughter. Try to always speak from a place where love is, come from a place where love is, and dwell in a place where love is. If you can do this, then the world should be your oyster and you its shiny Mikimoto pearl...<br />
Godspeed and Happy Holidays,<br />

Lately I have seen so many things that inspire me. I have found this inspiration in artwork, movies,
travel, blogs, books, Tallulah, my dreams, talk shows, cook books, oh the list
is SO long and SO varied so I am going to share some things that have
illuminated my mind and moved my soul or just flat out made me laugh so hard I
could tinkle…I would prefer not to use this word, but I decided I would do it for
my dad, Virgil. He tried his darndest to
push this word on me when I was younger.
I could not and still cannot bring myself to saying it. He also made us say “I smashed a frog” if we
were to flatulate. I think flatulate
sounds worse than then other “f” word pertaining to this off the subject
topic. Anyway, the other day I tuned in
to Wendy Williams on TV and not on purpose.
The telly was still on from Hoda and Kathy Lee and I caught that she was
having the puppeteer behind the character Elmo.
His name is Kevin Clash and he came out all big and black and super
sweet. I could have just died. He told a story about how he was riding in a
limo and the driver asked who he was and he told him Elmo and the driver went on and on about how much his daughter loved Elmo and Kevin asked if he wanted
him to call and talk to his daughter and the driver happily obliged, well
needless to say while Elmo was talking away to the daughter Kevin said he
looked in the mirror and there were tears running down the driver’s face. Oh, I was crying just thinking about it. Jim Henson was a hero to so many kids for
creating so many beloved characters.
Kevin has been Elmo for 30 years and has a new documentary coming out
called “Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey”.
All I am saying is that this is going to be awesome and Elmo brings a
lot of love to people’s lives. Maybe we should
all try to be more like him, hmmm? To
make this about fashion, how about a long Elmo red caftan for the holiday in a
light wool, where is that? Maybe I will
have one made!!! You should too.</div>

My next bit of inspiration came from the made for HBO movie “Temple
Grandin”. Claire Danes was the star in
this moving chronicle of a brilliant woman dealing with autism before doctors
knew what the hell they were talking about.
Please rent this movie on Netflix, it will not disappoint and neither will
Temple’s wardrobe. She was not a lover
of the traditional frocks of her time and did like to spend her time amongst
cattle, I mean lots of cattle. Her
signature look became western shirts with high-waisted jeans. She also tied a scarf around the collar with a
simple knot. Get Temple’s look by buying
a pair of high-waisted jeans by *Mother, Rich and Skinny or J. Brand. Now go to
your local feed store or even Goodwill might have a sweet western shirt. I know for a fact King Ranch and Shepler’s
has a killer collection. Next stop, a
beautiful scarf. I prefer Hermes,
Ferragamo or Pucci. They will add just
enough pizzazz to nail the “Grand” in Grandin.
Now, go rent the movie and fall in love with a girl that sang a song from Carousel at her high school
graduation, made cow brooches- ranks, and went into what was considered a man’s
world out west and ripped it a new ass hole.
And yes, with Autism. “Would you
like for me to open the gate.”(You will understand this after you see it.)</div>

I was in Charleston twice this month and stumbled across
what I have to say is my favorite Audubon print of them all. John James Audubon
was a French American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter. What we know him most for his is color-plate
book that is called <i>The Birds of North
America. </i>I have seen the pink
flamingo Audubon print and have decided it must be in my house, I cannot afford
an original, but a print is affordable and can be found at <a href="http://www.rare-prints.com/">www.rare-prints.com</a>. Check out his work and see which one you
might like chirping from your walls. He also moved to the south after his
arrival to America from France...yee haw and thank you John-boy. H&M has Versace now and they having
amazing bird print blouses. Be on the
lookout for birds this season, trust me they will be flying in to make an appearance. Hopefully into my wardrobe;)</div>

Dear Belle Epoque readers,<br />
I am certainly aware Halloween is well in the past, but I had to take a moment to blog about the exciting first Halloween I had with a baby. I might touch down on etiquette as well. For starters every costume I had picked out bombed. I had been planning on a pink elephant costume, but every review I read said it arrived looking mangled and worn, really, that is exactly what I want my little precious looking like, a mangled and worn pink elephant. I wanted this outfit for two reasons, growing up a Republican I thought it was funny in a political way and if she is ever running for president, a very cute endorsement. This also goes for if she decides she wants to rebel and be a Democrat. Still funny. Also, when speaking to friends on Halloween about politics we could use her and say "oh well there must be an elephant in the room."<br />
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> "Elephant in the room" is an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_language" title="English language">English</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaphor" title="Metaphor">metaphorical</a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiom" title="Idiom">idiom</a>

idiomatic expression also applies to an obvious problem or risk no one
wants to discuss.</span></b><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It is based on the idea that an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant" title="Elephant">elephant</a>
in a room would be impossible to overlook; thus, people in the room who
pretend the elephant is not there have chosen to avoid dealing with the
looming big issue."</span></b><br />

Holy politics. this sounds perfect. Anyway, her monarch butterfly costume was at my sister's house. Many costumes went through my head Monday, I even considered dressing her in boy's clothes, painting a little crumb catcher on her and telling people she was a boy. The only problem with this costume would be when she is older and looks back on her first Halloween and thinks, "gee, my Mom really did lose her sh*T when I was born." Or, she could be happy because like Chas Bono, she always knew she had it in her... either way it was a bad idea. I thought about stuffing a onesie with cotton and painting her face white and making her the Pillsbury Dough Boy like my parents did when I was um, 10! I just knew I would not be able to find A little chef hat, so I thought what costumes do I already have? I had Minnie Mouse ears from my sisters recent trip to Disney and of course she brought me back some too. For those who do not know, I have a secret affinity for Minnie Mouse. It is not weird. She is girlie, wears great yellow kitten heels and has a red and white polka dot dress. Who doesn't want this? Plus her husband, Mickey, is a billionaire, Holla. I went to Walmart bought her a long sleeve white onesie some black leggings and little glittered black mary-janes. I put a little black eye-shadow on her nose and put her Minnie ears on and voila, "Mini "Mouse and I was Minnie Mouse. My costume consisted of a black dress with Gaga-esque sleeves, my fancy sequined Minnie ears, a sequined belt and patent leather wedges. I, too put black eyeshadow on my nose and presto Minnie Mouse and Mini mouse. I was so pleased.<br />

She looked so cute! She also had not taken her nap, so we packed her in the car and headed over to our friends house that were having us over due in part to the fact that I have not had any trick or treaters for two years. The first year I had two and last year 0. This broke my heart because I was pregnant and had bought a huge bowl of Dum Dums and no one came, not a single person. This year was gong to be different. Baby was asleep upon arrival and stayed down almost the entire Halloween, but this did not mean I could not answer the door and hand out candy to satisfy part of my Halloween desires. Every time the doorbell rang I sprinted to the door with the bowl of candy, I would patiently wait for the kids to say "Trick or treat". Parents, note to you, your kids should say either "trick or treat" or "happy Halloween" it is the right thing to do. You probably should go over this with them. Unless they are painfully shy...this means they shouldn't be dressed as Mario taking candy from strangers. Also, to the parents that let your kids go trick or treating without costumes, are you f-ing kidding me? Would you go to the mall at Christmas, wait in a long line and finally arrive at chair with a old man, five o' clock shadow and a suit on, sit on his lap and tell him what you are wishing for? No!, because that is not fn Santa Claus! The beard and the belly and the red suit and hat make him Santa, just like a costume makes you a trick or treater. I became the candy Nazi with costumed kids and uncostumed kids. One 12 year old girl came to the door dressed in a cardigan and pants, no costume and held out her bag to which my husband inquired if she was dressed as an adult. Another kid with curly hair and baggy pants when asked what he was dressed up as replied, "nothing" I told him to check that stupid answer at our door and tell people he was Rob Machado...he sadly did not know who he was. Another kid came to every door on the house and asked for candy, he had on no costume, but looked so much like Tupac it was scary. I tossed this suggestion his way and can only hope he scored chocolate from the other houses.<br />

The other houses were probably not on a candy limit like I was putting the trick or treaters on at my friends house. Costume= two pieces of candy, typically one chocolate and maybe a Laffy Taffy. A thank you got you Minnie Mouse throwing you compliments like"you are the best, I love your costume." A four year old by the way should know how to count, so when I say "you can choose two" and they take a handful, just saying they should know better. The kids that dress up, say "trick or treat" and "thank-you", well what can I say, you have done a good job parents. I know costumes can be expensive, but anyone can take a sheet and cut holes out for the eyes, right? My Mini Mouse had to be woken up for the big night and I have to say she was so pleased with the kids she got to see dressed up. She basically mauled them, which can scare kids a little. She will not remember this year, but I hope I made her proud and when she looks back at the pictures of her first Halloween she does not say "my mom was such a freak", but instead says "wow, my mom dressed us up alike". Aaagh, the memories flood in and remind me of the picture I have seen of my first Halloween. October 1979, 10 months old, tucked in the nook of my dads arm with a mustard yellow turtle-neck on, bell bottom blue jeans, black smut on my nose and gnawing on a candied apple. My Dad, dressed the exact same. We were scare-crows. I guess apples don't fall too far from trees...I, however, prefer mine candied.<br />
Godspeed little ghosties,<br />

So my friend Taylor recently inquired about wanting a new brown bag, and after two months of searching around different places, I am now dreaming of brown bags...instead of putting my liquor in a paper bag I know put it in this Milly number below. Whatever color of bag you are dreaming of purchasing it is always good to have a good brown bag. I actually use my Louis Vuitton feed bag more than any other one in the boudoir. It is honestly the best bag I have ever owned. Let these visceral visions awaken you to a new purchase. By the way these are all mark-downs from various sites. If you are interested, I will link you to these stunning sacs a' main.<br />
Godspeed,<br />

I want something in brown or tan with either gold (or no metal) accents. I'm thinking soft leather & a fairly unstructured shape. I bought an interim one from Forever that, aside from the fact that it is not leather & a total piece of shit, is practically perfect. I'll post a pic. I'd love to find something similar to this of good quality. My budget is up to $400 (but I'd be thrilled to find something in the $2-$300 range :) Can you help me s'il vous plaît? xxx T</span><br />

First things first, I have been friends with Lindsey since I was 13 and she was 14. She used to drive me around Wrightsville Beach illegally at 15 in her bad-ass 1988 Nissan 300zx with t-tops. Google this image please because it was sicky. I thought she was so pretty with her long brown hair to her bottom, sun-tanned and fancy free. We have one zillion memories. We played soccer together, went to the beach together, cried together, lived together, but mostly laughed a lot together. We are still close friends and I consider her one of the most loyal and generous people I know. I will never forget something she wrote me when a very stupid snobby lady hurt my feelings..."Charlotte, do not let the lack of integrity in other's effect the amount of dignity in yourself." I was like "whaaaa" , she just has the ability to make everything better. I guess that sums Lindsey up in a nut shell. She just makes things better. Whether it be nights, clothes, drinks, food, vacations, weddings, you name it, she is who you want to be with and you know the fun has only begun when you see her do her little dance where she jumps from one foot to the other and kinda punches you on the arms and pumps you up for God knows what, if you know her, you know what I am talking about. For Lindsey, she has only just begun, and watch out, because just when you think she has shown you her best, she will only give you better.<br />
I asked Lindsey to answer a few questions so you could get a look into Lindsey's looking glass. What you find is better than hookah smoking cats and tea drinking rabbits...enjoy.<br />

an inspiration to other people.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"> </span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

What are your favorite qualities in women?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">I really enjoy being around other women that are
down to earth, trustworthy, laid back, creative, quirky, spontaneous, intelligent
and have thought provoking things to say. Also women who have great gut
instincts are great to be around. I can’t stand gossips, or catty women. They
drive me nuts. Such a waste of time. I also steer clear of women who are
manipulative. Such a Gemini thing to say, huh?! Always need my freedom!</span><span style="color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"> </span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: black; font-family: 'Century Gothic', sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Hard one. This changes on a regular basis. Which
is kind of like why I’ve never had a tattoo, I couldn’t ever decide because my
mind is always changing! Here are a few loves current and past:<br />
Stella McCartney “Stella”<br />
Khiel’s roll on “Musk 1921”<br />
Frederic Malle’s “En Passant”<br />
Commes des Garcons “Sequoia” in the winter time<o:p></o:p></span></div>

She is the type of filly you run into at very cool vintage store and she leaves an imprint,and you might think to yourself "I will never meet another girl like her". Well, it is true, you won't and I hope you enjoy reading about her and hopefully snatching up some of her jewels and little masterpieces.</a><br />

And everyone should want to be a card carrying member.</span></a></span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 16pt;">I’d

So, today is my 2nd wedding anniversary. So much has happened in the last year I cannot believe I am alive and not heavily medicated. Heavily. As I sit back for the hour of free time I have before Tallulah wakes up, I think back to my wedding day, a day full of setbacks, serious set backs. I honest to God woke up with a fever blister, a weird color of hair, and another little problem, lets just call it "a hemi". My sister was in bed beside me with make-up down to her chin and what I think might have been sour cream and onion Lay's stuck to her face. She had stumbled into my bridal suite at some strange hour, after escaping the grips of a D.U.I. I had turned in by midnight so I would look beautifully flawless for my big day. The day hurried by me. My friends were hungover and I was totally in this alone. I had 13 bridesmaids. Not a one could pull it together. I will say two did enough to get me some food in my belly. I will be forever grateful to them. I made tragic mistake after another. For instance, I had my hair set before I took a shower. I did not get a pedicure and let one of my friends paint them, she was still drunk. I had not shaved my legs. When I figured out I needed to shower I had to take a "puerto rican" with a full face of make-up on. It was mayhem. I'm telling you people, if you do not believe in God, start now. I somehow with all my ailments and bad planning pulled off a look that I can live with and I did my own make-up, before I brushed my teeth of course. Needless to say other than my hair looking like I had just finished Outward Bound, I was pleased.</div>

What I want to be my topic for today is the beauty of changing out of your wedding dress into another show stopper for what some and I consider to be the after reception party. This is when the old people are gone, your parents are in their beds weeping and the kids are with the nanny. This dress is what you are going to "fake leave" from your reception in. NTS: bring a bra. This is the dress you dirty dance with your husband in, jump in a pool, pour champagne on, on purpose and pretty much ruin. I loved mine. My sister got me this purple Calypso number at the last minute and I matched my bridesmaids who wore Two Birds. I had these beautiful midnight blue Christian Louboutin's and I kept the flower in my hair. Stringy hair. These are a couple of my friends in their "getaway dresses". I hope they had as much fun in theirs as I did mine. To the fillies who are not married yet, if you want your gorgeous, expensive wedding gown to look the way it did in the pictures, change dresses. And if you want to have a rockin' good time by throwing close to 20 twenty wine glasses on the ground while shouting "Mazeltov" do that too, it's your day dammit.</div>

I did a gigantic project on Ferragamo shoes when I studied in Florence and ever since I have been obsessed with their IPO Rainbow sandal made for Judy Garland in 1938. I have often wondered when the creativity and competition would return to true artmanship( I made this word up, because I mean art, not craft.) of unique shoes. Well, all aboard folks, I could have never dreamt of such beautiful colors, shapes, platformed balls, glittered oxfords, embellished toes.<br />

I am so glad that we have taken the "ewww" out of shoes and brought back the "sho'" nuff I'll take them in every button candy color ya' got. I have a very large weakness for shoes, but seeing that I am writer, have a hard time affording them. The great thing about this is that it does not take many of these shoes to make you happy. The same way I would like one Judith Leiber purse, preferably the Maharajah Elephant, I would love to have the repro of the IPO any day over say, five pairs of stupid affordable shoes. My time will come and I am being very patient. While I am waiting though, I think I have to have the Miu Miu gold gilttered and pink suede booties!!!!! And I might need eight hundred and ninety dollars please...<br />
Godspeed,<br />

</tbody></table>
To all Belle Epoque readers I do not know how many of you stayed up to watch the 2011 Emmy Awards, but I did and it was so well hosted by Jane Lynch I could have cried. It has been so long since I was truly entertained by the host of an awards show every second they were on the air. You nailed it Jane. Ricky Gervais, suck it. I could not count the awkward moments of silence from last year on one hand, and that was in my own living room. I love awards shows for starters, actors amaze me. I can't even pretend I like something, no "faking it" on my part. I actually wear every emotion, not only on my sleeve, but pretty much 80's style splatter painted on my entire outfit. I say "sentimental", you may say "hyper-sensitive". Kind of like when my husband ask me to load the dish washer or anything at all for instance and I ask to "stop yelling at me." I mean it. I did try out for a play recently and GOT the part, but I turned it down down due to a scheduling conflict. And lack of Zanax. Anyway I live and die for these shows, notebook and pen in hand, ready to take notes and cast my ballot. I first want to give a standing O to all my peeps at SNL. Yes, yes, yes Academy. These people are amazing actors and it is LIVE. Amy Poehler stole the show by improvisationally hitting the stage like a beauty pageant line-up when they were calling out the nominees. I was not in love with her Peter Som dress, just a wee bit tight after that baby, but what a beautiful color and I am obsessed with her. How about all of the red, it seemed to be the color of the night. From Lea Michelle, Kate Winslet to Kathy Griffin and Sofia Vergara.<br />

Dear Drew, you are so darn cute why did you wear a sweater turtle neck and a skirt that looked like a 5- year old made it in craft class, Katie Holmes is that a maternity dress, Paula Abdul did you still my aunts window treatments, Heidi Klum tell me you didn't borrow that from the Toddler and Tiara's wardrobe and finally Zooey Deschanel, the nineties called and they want their prom dress back, equipped with the wrinkled RED belt. I do love red and pink together, but not this time.<br />

It was a plus to see plunging necklines, come on Hollywood, you're not starving yourselves for nothing, show us those bones! Not a huge night for fashion as far as I am concerned, but it was huge night for mis-fits and I am not going to say much because I mean this. It is about time big people, small people, dark people, gay people and old people, etc. get some recognition and they did and it made be proud because that means viewers, the Academy, and people in general have come a long way. This is good America, keep opening your mind. <br />

Steve Carrell, you got robbed and it hurt my heart. Not as much as my facial cleanser I put on my toothbrush that night did because I was so tired, but it hurt and it left a funny taste in my mouth too. <br />

Dear all Fashion lovers and um huh, Missoni lovers, yesterday was razy-cray, I mean straight up Tickle Me Elmo-black-friday-Furbie-style crazy. And yes mam and sirs I was slap dab in the middle of it. I have never anticipated anything so much in my life. I came equipped with my Dad, Al the Cuban-their worker, and my daugher Tutu( cute baby equals divergent to grabbing things) I arrived at Myrtle Beach Target at 8:30. I was amazed with the women that had already filled their carts. Not only was I amazed, but these people did not look like Missoni loving people. I have been a HUGE fan of Missoni since I studied in Florence and the lira could afford me the real thing and the pieces were beautiful and made of gorgeously strewn knits, cashmere and silks, but hey I'll take a viscose/cotton/polyester blend anyday. At least I can wash it at home. I bought a couple of shifts, some cardigans, a toboggan, infinity scarf, some flats, and barrettes. I loved the notebooks and journals. I bought a couple make-up bags and cereal bowls, pillows, and baby clothes. I got to get the items I had been longing for. My Dad and Al stocked up on flatware and pillows. I overheard some lady say to my father "don't be rude, they will restock tomorrow." I quipped "The early bird gets the worm and no they will not." And in this case Target will not re-stock. We were not buying these items for re-sale. We were buying these items because we love Missoni and have known its history and beauty for longer than three months. Everything from the bedding to the luggage was crafted beautifully for a secondary line, so BRAVA Missoni. They marketed well and look where it got them, I mean the cussin website crashed. I saw so many of my fashionista friends and loved it. We were there because we love fashion and love the unique zig-zag pattern of Missoni and that was what I think appealed to so many other shoppers. The uniquity of this pattern is easy on the eyes(sometimes crossed eyes if you stare too long) I went back two times yesterday to get more items that had not sold, like socks, knee-highs, thank you cards, etc. I ran into three other friends from the morning. So, I was not the only psycho that went back for seconds. My friend Chris even went into the back to see if they were holding out on us, they were not. She and I actually discussed how Margherita Missoni was probably on a yacht, smoking a cigar, saying "sono cosi ricchi, che amo la mia vita." ( I am so rich, I love my life.) Not that being BORN a Missoni has its downside, right? We received one bike at our store and it was gone by 8:43 ( I made that time up, but it was early.) Those bikes are doubling their price on E-bay. OMG. You can re-sell these things, THAT is how coveted and limited these things were. So, am I proud of myself, yes. Do I feel sorry for my friends that did not get to their store that was run amuk with bananas, yes. My friends in L.A, D.C., N.C and abroad did not get a fair shot. The website crashing did not help matters...needless to say, maybe they WILL re-stock, maybe they will do it again, maybe more awesome designers will join in the fun. In addition to the ones that have, fyi. This is what I am hoping for. Maybe Marc Jacobs???? Well fillies, you can always borrow something from me.</div>

On the night of September 10th I ate dinner with my dear friend Richard Todd. Anyone who knows Richard knows that when you dine with Richie, the food is bountiful and the wine flows like the Niagara. It was always a feast and a pleasure to be with him. I was twenty-two living the dream of trying to break into the fashion world in New York City. I lived in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and did not come across too many fancy meals. The restaurant was the Red Cat in Chelsea and I remember they served radishes with sea-salt as their bar food. I thought that was stupid because it seemed very trendy, almost silly. Plus, a sister has to eat and as many times as I tried to shove one of those dirt diggers in my mouth I had already washed it down with most of my blood orange martini. The night was perfect, great food, great wine, great service. I went to bed utterly satisfied and a wee bit tipsy. My alarm clock did not go off on the morning of September 11th. Oh Crap, I was running late and needed to hurry so I would not get scolded by my boss, the infamous fashion designer, Cynthia Rowley. I ran to the L train and made it to Union square in a jiffy. Once I stepped off the train everything changed. Trains were packed and people were panicked. I remember waiting a very long time to catch the N or R to get to 57th street and when one finally arrived, I stepped in and sat down nervous as a cat. The guy beside me kept saying "the tower has been hit, the tower has been hit" I will honestly tell you and this was my southern ignorance protecting me, I thought he meant the cell phone towers. I envisioned in my head a tower that helped cell phones work and one had been hit by something and now no one's cell phones would work. I had no idea he was talking about the World Trade Center towers. I looked at this guy like he was crazy, because you never know who or what you are going to get beside you on the subway. I thought he was just another freak on the N train. I flew through the front door where Cynthia quickly greeted me as I apologized profusely. "The trains were so slow today, apparently the towers have been hit." She ordered me to go into to the design room and tune into the television. The rest of the CR team sat in horror watching the first tower smolder. I remember saying to guy in charge of shipping "this is bad those towers are going to implode." My mind scanned the time line of the crashes. I was in Brooklyn waiting for the L train at 8:46 am when the first tower was hit. I was running off the N train to 57th st. when the second building was hit- 9:03. As I watched the towers and replays of the towers being hit, I went into a state of shock. Kind of like fight or flight. I first called my mother, I was only 22. I asked her what to do. Her first questions regarded my being OK, then she informed me that this was a terrorist attack. Next, she asked what shoes I had on. I at first thought this was weird, but she followed with" because you are going to be doing some walking." I luckily kept a pair of Chinese slippers under my desk for when my feet staredt hurting at the end of each work day. I told my mom I loved her and hung up the phone. I walked out on the roof of my building and watched from 2 miles away billows of smoke cloud the sky. What was I going to do? I called my best friend Marc and he was frantic because he could not touch base with his sister and she worked at American Express- literally right beside the Twin Towers. By the way he ran 80 blocks to find her and did- alive and well. I can barely think of that without choking. How afraid he must have been. But until he found her he could not deal with me. I walked to Bloom where my friend and room mate Lily worked and I sent out an email to my entire contact list about what had happened and what the buzz was. I wish I had that letter. I remember I said fuck a lot. Lily and I freaked out and cried and eventually went our separate ways and I went to my friend Kimry's office to get my plan together. She and I went to high school together. I honestly did not know where to go. I stayed with her until we parted ways and I called my friend Carmen who was older than me and we had worked at CR when I first moved to NY. She knew the city well and made me feel safe. She was one of five girls, Cuban, and a Brown graduate. The next stop was walking down to Soho. I walked briskly to Soho and there was a police barricade around lower Manhattan. Carmen lived on Wooster St. which is basically in the heart of Soho. I contemplated walking back to Brooklyn, but I was so scared and at this point if you got through to anyone on a cell phone you were lucky because all circuits were busy. I remember looking at a police officer and saying "excuse me sir, I live in Williamsburg and cannot catch a taxi, what should I do and he said so sadly "walk, everyone else is." I used the pay phone and reached Carmen and she told me to get there fast. I had to jump a fence and tell a couple lies to get to Carmen's building, but I got there. I remember walking to Grub in Soho when the seventh tower collapsed. I passed Matthew Broderick walking his dog. If you lived in Soho you could not leave Soho. I was there for the night. We went to a Restaurant nearby and I called my sister from a pay phone and could not get her to answer, we had not spoken all day. Soon, the phone rang at the restaurant and it was Caroline, I cradled the phone tightly to my ear wishing I could feel her arms around me, telling me I was going to be OK, that we were all going to be OK. I went to bed at Carmen's feeling safe and sound for the moment.<br />

The next day any and everybody was in Union Square. This was as far south as you could go. I saw so many people there that morning. I had lunch at the Coffee Shop and dished with friends. I went back to Brooklyn totally broken and very tired. The next months were a night mare. Kids, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, so many people searching for their loved ones. I remember an entry in my journal said "I am so depressed these days, I feel like I am swimming in a sea of milk jugs and everyone is missing." My depression worsened and if it was not for my best friend Marc, I would probably still be lying in my bed on Havemeyer and Grand. He arrived on the 13th of September and I answered the door in my pj's, I remember he picked me up and said to me "nope, you are not doing this, you have got to pull your shit together." So I did. I did what he told me to do. The world had to keep going and I had to as well. New York became friendlier after September 11th. It was still New York City! but it was a different New York City. I cried a lot and so did everyone else. Someone every where had lost someone they loved. It was like 3 degrees of separation maybe 2. Time was a healer and little by little people started to heal. But there was not a band aid big enough to cover the wound that hurt NY. <br />
I want to say something positive now, that I became happier, that the signs everywhere didn't effect me, but that would be a lie. I put on a mask like everyone else. I did make a new friend who is still one of my best friends today, Kate. We made it through the sadness together. Fashion was dead after this, but we were not and we went to parties and entertained celebrities and partied our way through the after-madness. What was I suppose to do. I was only 22.<br />
EPILOGUE:<br />
Marc is still my best friend and I love him with every ounce of my being for taking care of a little ol southern gal in the big appie.<br />
Kate and I are still besties and we both had our babies on March 1st 2011. She was a bridesmaid in my wedding and I attended hers in Galveston, Texas.<br />
Lily is my daughters God- mother and she and I are friends til the end.<br />
Kimry is still kickin it in the city. Viva Saint Mary's.<br />
<br />
*Osama Bin Ladan was killed May 2nd, 2011.<br />
May all who have suffered or been a victim of terrorism or any act of hate be blessed and healed and rest assured that the fate of evil will be revenge from the big man upstairs. God Bless America.<br />
Godspeed,<br />
Chacha<br />

Hello men,<br />
It is your turn for the first time on my Dernier Cri. I just wanted to share with you fellas some very good looking finds not to mention icons to base your own signature looks after. It is always good to be yourself, but keep it classy San Diego, meaning don't dress like you are from there. No spiky hair, black t-shirts, and baggy Diesel's and those damn euro- trash pointed flat toe oxfords. I am thinking Mark McGrath circa 2003. Hang it up dudes. What do you like to do? Say you like to skateboard, or used too. Get your Vans and put them with a simple yet stylish pair of jeans. Levi's makes great jeans if you are part of the 5% of men who have not ventured into designer jeans (cough, cough, my husband) pair that with a nice blazer( just go get a Brooks Brothers navy blazer already: timeless) with a simple knit collared shirt. Tadaaaaaa. Clean, classy and cool. You can eventually go to Ben Silver and get Alma Mata button or other cool vintage cuff buttons. My husband took an old blazer and took a patch he received when he studied at Cambridge in London and sewed it on a pocket to give the blazer a personalized feel. Also, gentlemen please wear your size clothing. They make them for everyone, big, tall, bald... They even have slim fit. If you notice you are having to do the two buck tuck because there is too much shirt, get a slimmer cut. Trust me. Note to Men everywhere: t-shirts that are old and cool work with a stylish wardrobe. A t-shirt you buy on vacation, go for a jog in it, sleep in it, tear it into rags and wash your new 2011 Porche in it. Have you seen that car btw. It is the best looking car I have seen since the 88' Jag. My friends Uncle has one and it is emerald green (trust) and I was mesmerized. I am not really a car person, however when Kate Walsh said in a 2008 Cadillac commercial, "When you turn your car on does, does your car return the favor." I honest to God thught about it. If I had the new 2012 Porshe Panamera, I am pretty sure with 7 speeds it could cook me dinner and take me to bed, so yes Kate this car could... Anyway, from the looks below, nice sleek lines, beautiful shirts and bold ties. Pocket squares are a must and beautiful socks never hurt. Men, if you are afraid of these words: pocket squares, patterned shirts, bright/bold ties. Baby steps brothers. You don't have to be in the clean plate club when it comes to fashion. Start slow and I am going to give you a fabulous website to start with. Charles Tyrwhitt, not only does a lady with a sexy British accent help you order, but she will guide you like you were a virgin through new territory. Monogrammed cuffs, pastel blazers, shanghai silk ties and for a very good price. Men, do not be afraid of color. You have the tendency to look old and my theory is because you don't think the sun causes damage and you don't moisturize. Color will help you look HOT. If you need a winter coat go buy a navy or camel colored Pea-Coat. If you are on a budget, try Banana Republic. This look will never go out of style, in fact you will look sexy and if you dare pop the collar, wear a scarf tucked in it and gracefully put your arm around your little trophy, you will look and feel dashing and you never know you might get some. Just sayin'.</div>

These are nice and pretty much bad-cuss!!! They are $130.00 They come in a bevy of colors and girls you can wear them too. Just remember fillies to get your size right, I believe two sizes smaller than men's. Men, stay tuned. I am doing my next Dernier Cri for you! Until them my peepee's keep living the Belle Epoch.</div>

I am terribly sorry it has taken so long for me to post on the VMA's. Not only do I not have cable, but I am still trying to get Lady GaGa's stupid alias out of my head, Jo Calderone. If anyone else is trying to do the same I suggest Tylenol P.M. and Vodka. Just kidding, because I have not had a sip of alkie since Napa (Please refer to my last dernier cri.) Is anyone else annoyed with Nicki Minaj? Whilst I love her new single Superbass, she looks like Katy Perry on crack humpty. If she dressed like she had a lick of sense I am sure she could win even more awards. This is what is starting to bother me about the industry. These singers are getting more and more extravagant with their costumes... You know what would really shock us in 6 months would be if Kerry-Brand, Minaj, or GaGa came to an interview or awards show dressed like a human being with some upbringing. Maybe borrow a nice dress from Oscar and get Oprah's make-up team to do the ditty to their faces. I have this theory that Oprah has the most talented make-up artist in the world. They take the most busted people and somehow on her sound stage they look like fallen angels. Even that crazy bitch that helped abduct Elizabeth Smart, Wanda Barzee. She scares the socks off of me. If you do not know what she looks like google her, and then dress up like her for Halloween. This reminds me of the year Charlize Theron won Best Actress for "Monster". I wanted to dress up like her for Halloween, but decided not to seeing that I was single and that might be my fate forever if I were to follow through. I can imitate her to a tee. To the point I shutter... Anyway. Loved the purple Tom Ford dress Katy Perry wore. I would have loved it better if it had not clashed with her electric kool-aid acid test hair. There are only a handful of reasons your hair should be a color one would find in a gay-flag. You are either gay and celebrating in a parade(only on parade day), you are dressed up like Kurt Cobain for Halloween, or you tried to home dye your hair and failed...miserably. I once had a pink strand of my hair dyed for Prostate Cancer awareness. Apparently it was vegetable dye and would wash out, ummm, you mean wash all over. All I needed was a beak and longer legs and you could have thrown me on a lawn in front of someone's trailer. Preferably in Bolivia...North Carolina...near a meth lab. I now have a "get Brit-Brit a stylist fund", poor gal winning an award, sober?, with her werewolf manager clapping his heart out while that butch Jo Calderone does not only steal her thunder, but if that freak could have bottled lightening she would have. Geez, Brit probably had her stomach pumped from all the valium it took for her to walk on stage and Jo-Gag-Gag had to tell the girl she masturbated to her. There are no words for this behavior. Adele was awesome, I am sure who-ever fucked her over feels like a dip shit, because her performance was one of the most real and raw performances I have witnessed since Mary J. Blige and Andrea Bocelli sang "Bridge Over Troubled Waters". WOW. Bieber, I love you kid, but you look like a girl, it weirds me out...a lot. To Bruno of Bruno Mars covering "Valerie" for Amy Winehouse, you are so cussin cute. I have decided to follow in the footsteps of the "Fantastic Mr. Fox" and change all of my curse words into the word "cuss". So for shit, I would say "cuss". Capisce? Bruno, you have it all right. I want to put you on my shoulders and run through a field, or shrink you down and carry you in the curve of my pocket square. Now, start singing more quartet type songs and leave the silly lullabies to California, we want soul. Just be more like Amy. To Sameer Gadhia of Young the Giant, you are by far the hottest sweet potato to hit the scene. Your moves were softly killing me and you are a decade younger than me. I'm sorry Zac Efron, Sameer has taken your sexy little place. Please download his single "My Body"...And to my very favorite performer of all times: Beyonce Z. Just when I did not think you could be anymore perfect you stole back your thorny crown and sat back down on your throne. Girl, you are pregnant and still shakin' it like it's nobody's bizness. I loved the sequins, I love you rubbing your belly and that being your announcement to the billions of strangers who love you that you are expecting Mr. Z's bebe.. You are perfect. Your husband sang "Otis" well too. I am surprised Kanye didn't jump on stage and accuse you of stealing his baby and putting it in your stomach. Oh, Kanye you wore a Canadian tuxedo...that's all I can say about that.<br />
Godspeed,<br />
Chacha<br />
My favorite's<br />
1. Ice cream necklace- Niki Munaj<br />
2. That performer who sang in every commercial breaks cast-Jesse J.<br />
3. Dave Grohl and Jordyn Blum- prettiest couple<br />
4. Adele's Texas hair and lovely silouette<br />
5. Lil' Twist<br />
