I left the Fashion Mafia (and my underworld fashion heart) in Las Vegas. As much as I wanted to learn more about the secret organization and possibly join it, I decided that I enjoy my life very much. As much as I admired the woman I met and craved her status, wealth, and suit, I […]

Wow! I lasted at one job through the entire summer! Who would’ve thought? Not me! I never, ever thought I’d like it so much. And I never ever even fathomed that I’d get my collection done. I should have thought of using the kids sooner, though, so I wouldn’t have made them work so hard. […]

Despite our secrecy, someone discovered my mafia maven meeting.
I knew we were exposed when I discovered the dreaded Ultimate Fashion Threat on my suite’s Noguchi table this morning. It was so dreadful, I can barely think of it without gasping in horror. The vision haunted me all day: Replicas of my American Express Gold Card […]

Okay, so what do I need for my lookbook?
Clothes? Check.
Photographer? Nope. Well, maybe Elmo. He’s a great photographer. He takes really good shots whenever we’re out. I’ll bet he’ll do it.
Model? I called a bunch of modeling agencies and I can’t afford any of the really good models, so I’ll have to use a […]

Since Lady Miss Angora has been so moody, I thought she would perk up with a television interview.
I accepted Fiona’s invitation to have us on Celebrity Pets. Unfortunately, it didn’t go so well.
Lady Miss Angora wasn’t her usual self and sulked in front of the camera and attacked Fiona while I stepped out to […]

Sandee returned to work today. Weird. Project Runway Canada couldn’t have ended filming. And Sandee’s too good a designer to get kicked off. Wonder what happened?
But not enough to talk to her. I’m too busy planning my lookbook.
