I feel like I am dropping the ball a lot these days. I am sprinting in thousands of direction without knowing if I am ever going to cross ‘The’ let alone a line. Future will tell. I have reached out recently to many old girlfriends from my London era whom I haven’t talked to inContinue reading “Mood of the day: oh Boy!”

Mood of the day: Blah
I had a working session today with a Fashion entrepreneur/Fashion designer. I love meeting with creative people because they are often extremely good looking and being near them is like eating La Duree macarons while listening to Bach. They have an air about them, an halo: is it the fitted cashmere coat, the biweekly facialsContinue reading “Mood of the day: Blah”
Mood of the day: vintage
There is ice and iced water everywhere in Harlem. On Wednesday, DH came back 5 minutes after leaving the house and said: ‘I cannot take L to the day care, it’s like a freaking ice rink out there’. So I had to do a work video conference call with Europe while L was smashing everythingContinue reading “Mood of the day: vintage”
J’adooore!!!! Gaultier exhibit
Two months ago I went with BFF Natasha to see ‘The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk’ exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum. The genius and talent made me shiver; it almost made me sick to the stomach. I swear my heart beat faster than when I saw Matt Bomer/NealContinue reading “J’adooore!!!! Gaultier exhibit”
Mood of the day: Post Apocalypse shorties
There are a couple of things I learnt in the last two weeks: – the meaning of ‘polar vortex’, a persistent, large-scale cyclone located near one or both of a planet’s geographical poles. Basically, an almost apocalyptic end of the world during which your brain seems to be freezing while walking and during which opening yourContinue reading “Mood of the day: Post Apocalypse shorties”
Creative mama: Robin
As soon as Fall has arrived and until cherry blossom explodes on the streets of New York, I usually enter into my Feathers and (faux) Fur mood creatively. You might have already noticed this tendency from my last winter’s mood of the day posts. This year, I also have to be resourceful to fulfill myContinue reading “Creative mama: Robin”
Mood of the day: new old me
I finally made the big leap and by that, I don’t mean: – kicking out L back to his room when he crawls into our bed in the middle of the night and pull and pinch my breast as if it was a a ‘doudou’ (French for anything that calms the baby: teddy bear, securityContinue reading “Mood of the day: new old me”
‘Ask Away Friday’ with Vanilla Housewife
Very different post for this Friday, folks! I have been ‘dialoguing’ with the hilarious Jhanis of Fascinations of a Vanilla Housewife for a while now. She lives in the Philippines; I live in New York. Similar stuff crack us up so when she asked me to take part in an Ask Away Friday, I said: ‘Yeah, let’s doContinue reading “‘Ask Away Friday’ with Vanilla Housewife”
Mood of the day: the Frenchie
Very strange weather. Last week I was boasting about New York’s Indian Summer to all my European mates and this week is a mix bag of rain, thunderstorms and tornados alerts, Fall breeze, hot and sunny afternoons etc… As the French say, ‘c’est n’importe quoi!’ (It’s anything…and everything). So I decided to just mix Summer andContinue reading “Mood of the day: the Frenchie”
