LA fashion week isn't exactly like NY fashion week. Smaller designers participate. Making for eccentric nights like this. At the Ace gallery a few designers had rooms/galleries set up like vignettes with little peekaboo's to they're lines. I loved the antlers in the model's hair in the first photo. I think I must attempt this on my next model victim.

Monetary inspiration
This story of living on $20,000 a year is inspiring to me. Its the way of the world at the moment. All of us that are slaves to fashion should read this. Buy less and really live in our favorite pieces. Spend a little more on ONE pair of shoes if they would get you threw two seasons and you don't have to buy another.

Bruxie
I've been bugging my bug to take me to Bruxie this sandwich waffle place. He took a personal day on my day off and we jammed over in the rain to old town Orange for a visit. I got the s'mores and he got the PB and J. YUM. I also got to wear my new thigh highs because it was finally cold enough.
