New York is so quiet.
Best time ever to use the bike before the rain start pouring. Good time to use my little Prada rain jacket.

Where is the rain?

I had a very colorful weekend.
My friends Mona and Andrew got married. It was a Jewish Indian ceremony, 2 fascinating days of fun. My first weeding in the States! It was great to see how they managed to mix their two different heritages.
I was just trying to mix the right colors of my outfit. I wore a dark green dress from Alexander Wang, Balenciaga shoes, and a very purple nail polish on my toes.

Just married

purple, why not!

Fashion is always working on the next season.
So that means shooting fur coats on a hot summer day and bathing suits when it snows, or playing with Christmas lights in August.
That didn’t seem to bother our producer, Cristine who was untangling beautifully while we were shooting.
Didn’t I promised myself to start writing my Christmas cards in August so I may actually be on time to send them this year? Hard task!

Is it Christmas yet?

Christmas?Not yet!

We just finished a job,
Packing, unpacking, packing again, and big giant bags to carry. Yes, sometimes, fashion assistant can be a glamorous job, but very often, it is very close to a movers’ job. Few tricks whenever possible: pack with the bags on a bed so you don’t bend over, better go with few little bags than one very full suitcase and never refuse help from a stranger.

We come in all shapes and heights,
Tiiu Kuik is 6’2 so when you put some high heels shoes on her feet, you can end up with an unusual picture and very interesting looks from people on the street.

Tiiu and Koray

Let’s enjoy the summer,
a nice pineapple drink in hand, music and few good friends.

Some things are really annoying,
Like going to take your car in the morning and find out that someone or something smashed into it. That’s what happened to me this morning, not even a little “I am sorry”note. When I check the mirror of my rental car, It looks like what you see in a kaleidoscope. Pretty but not very efficient. The only good thing is that I paid with my Amex Platinium and it is all covered without paying a dime. Ouf!

Safe in the Pool
And for the ones who don’t like sunscreens, stay between the floating mattresses. If you get to close to a medusa, I learned that it is best to use shaving cream and a razor an shave the wound. Weird! I didn’t try yet but it sound better than urinating on the jellyfish sting.
