NEW YEARS RESOLUTION

2012-01-03T04:34:00.000-08:00

I do this every year usually I break one of these by the time I've finished writing them.

1. Be healthier: less cakes, cheese fun stuff more veg and other sad stuff
2. Dress: up more less hobo more heels
3. Smile more
4. Less daydreaming about boys who won't kiss me
5. No more dumb conversations with boys " what's your favourite cheese?" " Don't you think it would be amazing if Prada made hover boards?" " what's your favourite superhero?"
6. Wear More colour
7. Read more
8. Cycle as much as possible
9. Be more sporty
10. Cook more

Bieber Fever He's soooooo pretty !!!

Dear.........

2011-01-23T12:33:00.000-08:00

Mrs Prada,

The attachment I have to your clothes shoes and bags is starting to worry me. Video's like the one below don't really help either, I think I might actually harm myself or someone else if i don't get this banana print shirt. Obviously no one wants an actual death/crime on their hands so if you just send me the shirt and some of those trainer shoe things hmmm maybe a stole too that would be marvellous.

TOM IS EVERYTHING!!

2011-01-03T10:02:00.000-08:00

LITERALLY EVERYTHING I Love tom ford the crush I have on him is ridiculous, unhealthy and all consuming see why below.

NEW YEAR NEW ME ??

2011-01-03T09:22:00.000-08:00

To be honest I could of just copied and pasted last years resolutions but I'll try and add in a few new ones !

1)Not drink so much

I spend a large part of my time trying to remember things I think if i put down the wine I'd be a little bit sharper.

2) Cook more

I've just done my receipts for 2010 and the entertainment /lunch/drink section is NUTS If i could master more the three dishes all involving cheese (obvos) I'd save some money which i can spend on Prada.

3) Work on my image

Because the sideways look I always get when I tell people I'm a stylist is starting to get boring

4) blog more

For some very odd reason people seem to read this it's only fair that I bore whoever sees this with the random musing of my not so important life.

5) To start Running

I keep seeing people jogging near my house they always look so happy figure i might give it a try if you see me please don't laugh.

6) stop watching bad Hollyoaks

It's terrible but I cant leave it alone i think i need to join a support group.

7) stop staring at pretty boys

It's causing constant mild concussion the other day i bumped into a post box not cool at all!

Anyone who knows anything about me knows that at the end of the year I will have done none of these things but lets just pretend i did.

MOOD BOARD MONDAY !

2010-12-20T01:31:00.001-08:00

DEAR ....

Mrs Prada,

I would very much like this jumper below reasons why....

a) this jumper is pink , pink is a highly feminine colour , since I spend most of my days feeling like a fat 11 year old no one wants to talk to this could be my only chance in life to feel like a girl thus getting me a boyfriend which would make me feel like even more of a girl.

b) it actually looks like it might fit me ( ok ok not sample size perhaps a 42 might fit) for someone who spends a lot of time lusting after clothes i can't get my thumb into this could be a great improvement for the whole self esteem thing.

c) Till this day I have never ever lost/stolen any of your press samples therefore there must be some sort of rewards points system I'm on I imagine its like nectar points only with Prada not money off bread or something.

d) You've forgotten my birthday it was a two weeks ago ( Dont worry wang has too his letter is next! ) so this would be a perfect make up for it.

e) IT'S THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD PLEASE CAN YOU GIVE ME ONE PLEASE !!!!!!

feel free to email me anytime so i can send you my address

thanks again

Jeanie

Dear Junya Watanabe,

This came to the office today and i really would like to keep it Please Please Please?? reasons why below.

(a) its a sample and i fit it! do you know how Many samples fit fat girls actually fit in?? none therefore I should have fun cape coat scarf thingy it will increase my considerably low self esteem.

(b) i never get anything free if i had this i'd stop making the sad face in the picture and i'd behappy and you would totes want that right??

(C) if i had this i would make a concerted effort to get on jak & jill , satorialist, facehunter etc etc i'd even brush my hair maybe put on some heels, this in turn would be excellent advertising for you earning you more big bucks and thus paying for cape coat thingy.

As i've demonstrated above i would really benifit from having this piece so if you can just let mekeep it that would be great.

Many thanks

Jeanie

OH LARA HOW I LOVE THEE !

let me count the ways

Question Time part 3

So here we go again, this time we have the everyone's favorite fashionista Julia Frakes I love her for so many reasons, Her enviable sense of style, her way with words ( Julia contributes to several magazines Lula, Vogue Girl Korea, 25 Magazine, Vogue Nippon, InStyle UK etc) and her lovely scummy Tumbler called Yes! a bunny stream of conch its full of oh so cute images, interviews and fun stuff that makes a girl feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Name: Julia Frakes

Age: 20

Location: New York City (downtown)

What do you do? Fashion writer, model (represented by Next Model Management - Special Bookings), stylist

If your life had a theme song, what would it be? Perhaps "17 Pink Sugar Elephants" by Vashti Bunyan. Although my mum told me that she originally settled on the name "Julia" from my eponymous Beatles song on The White Album.

Who was your first crush? Conan O'Brien.

Best year you weren’t alive for? 1776, 1976.

What film makes you all romantic? The Big Sleep with Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall; Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo & Juliet and Jane Eyre (with Charlotte Gainsbourg); Léa Pool's Lost and Delirious; and admittedly Nora Ephron's You've Got Mail.

When's the last time you felt nostalgic? Listening to Fleetwood Mac always reminds me of my childhood: specifically driving in my mom's old green Land Rover to the horse stables or to Miller's Orchard to pick up apples and gourds and pumpkins in the autumn.

Fave...

Possession: I would never consider her a 'possession' per se... but without a doubt my roly-poly adorable ragdoll cat, Daisy. What an amazing listener.

Smell: Coastal Maine. On the fragrance front: Le Labo's sprightly Ambrette 9, Penhaligon's sentimental Bluebell, L'Artisan Parfumeur's fleeting Cote d'Amour and Byredo Parfum's subtle Blanche.
Candles: Ladurée's Amandine, Alexa Rodulfo's Bois Blanc and Cire Trudon's Spiritus Sancti.

Guilty pleasure: Stephen Jones hats, Rachel Maddow, Bill Maher, One Lucky Duck's raw vegan "ice cream", collecting an altogether insane amount of bizarrely herbally candles, jamming out to staggeringly profane music in my car at equally profane volumes.

Cake: is melt-in-your-mouth delectable from Pure Food and Wine near Gramercy Park.

love is... in the words of William Shakespeare: "love is a spirit of all compact of fire"

God is... awesome, all-pervasive... and entirely relative; surely not without a sense of humour.

You is... not taking myself too seriously.

Fashion is... all in the moment.
