Snip Snip

This was an accident.

My hair looks like shit.

Louis Vuitton

Spo-Spo-Spo-Sp-Sp-Sponge Bob!

Squ-Squ-Squ-Sq-Sq-Square Pants!

Deadlines

I have about two weeks to get my ass together and submit 6 original looks, plus a mood board for next spring, plus two additional looks which incorporate trends for next spring and winter, plus a written section on my favorite designers. FASHION WEEK HASN'T EVEN STARTED PROPERLY YET!! How am i supposed to do an accurate trend prediction?!

'What might be the point of this?' you may ask, oh inquisitive reader.

Well, as you may or may not know, fashion design is my core. I'm hoping to be accepted into one of Australia's most prestigious fashion courses, which i only got a reserve for last year. Hopefully, this year will bring better luck and a little more wisdom from my end.

The next two weeks will be high stress and fast paced. Hold on to your seats children!!


PS. I don't know what's been happening to me lately, but i keep getting dates and times wrong. Submissions aren't due for another month. HAHA.

Fairytale Ending

Screw my creativity, my social life and my moderately (extremely) good looks.

I work in David Jones now.

Life has become a joke.

PS. I think I'm going to have to get rid of that shopping addiction. Costume National doesn't come from an $11.60 per hour wage.

Is This Wrong?

Top by Alexander McQueen, Pants by Versus Versace, Boots by Doc Martens.

Saggy Skin & Leather

I think this is the first time in my life where i'm in want of a fashion related thing (in this case, a killer pair of doc martins or boots), and not been able to get them despite having a substantial amount of savings.

I guess in a way, it's helping me mature as a person. Speaking of which, I'm turning 18 in 11 days.

So is this what being old feels like?

PS. I still don't have anything planned for my 18th.

IM SUCH AN IDIOT!!

Okay, so you may or may not know that I'm focusing on commercial work at the moment.

I just caught up with a guy i knew from ages back, who just so happens to also be a commercial model/actor.

We were talking about agencies and what not and i realise that i should have just gotten a signed parental slip and sent my images into FRM (and every other agency there) at the beginning of the year. Then i'd move down to Melbourne, the commercial capital of Australia, and get opportunities for a whole heap of work.

Now I'm stuck in Sydney with approximately 5 commercial castings every 6 months.

I first screw up my education by pigeon-holing myself to Ultimo at the beginning of the year and now i realise i did the same for work. It is too late to change anything now because I'm going back to study in 6 months.

OK WHERES MY CHAINSAW?!

Fashion On The Park

So, i havent blogged in almost a month. Why? Well, i went and purchased myself a life! Cost me a damn fortune too! $9.95!

No, but seriously, I've been in a fashion design competition. Yes, i'm on the other side of the creative spectrum this time, designing two garments for a contest.

PHOTOS! *BAM*






I didnt win.

Someone told me...

...that i "look like Adam Lambert, in a good way."


What 'good way'?

Someone please stab me through the heart fives times with a machete.

It's a hard life.

It has been almost a month since my last casting. A month of lack in direction. I don't even think I'll hit my goal of doing two commercials this year.

So what do i do? Join another agency, seeing as I'm on a non exclusive agreement? Or do i go get a job in retail or fast food and live the life of every other normal kid?

PS: I got a text back from a friend who's with one of Australia's leading commercial agencies, and it appears that I'm one of the lucky ones.

Decisions, decisions...

OHai!

John Galliano anyone?

Pointless Speculation

Nicolas Rippoll...

and Juan Manual Arancibia...

were spotted canoodling in Paris.

That's all.

Versace Womenswear FW10

Is it just me, or has this showseason been incredibly boring?

Versace was not exempt from that. As glad as i am with Donatella steering the fashion house back to its roots, it seems she has also readopted her old, sloppy construction styles as well as the use of dodgy fabrics. All in all, the collection looked dated and cheap.

The upcoming season is just not working for me.

This week,

my agent is supposedly sending me on my very first go sees.

Uhm.. i dont know why, but over the past week, the cover of my book has become bubble central, and it seems the pleather is peeling.

S#%$&KJDF@^&$dfuck.

I got bored...

so i re-did John Galliano's Ukrainian Ice Princess.



Yep.. that's skill right there.

Impulse Buying

$450 later...


It looks so much better in person. The detail is lost through shitty lighting + shitty camera.

It's C'N'C by Costume National. Its RRP was supposedly $1690 and it was on sale for $860 but i made a little deal with the salesperson and got it for $450. (No, not that kind of a deal!)

Anyway, I'm not too sure if it's a worthy investment or a lapse in judgment on my part...

Sifting For Gold

Your favorite insomniac has once again been staying up late and reminiscing. For the first time, I'm actually missing high school. After watching a light hearted video of a group of boys serenading the principal for Valentines day, i was reminded of it's cheerful, joyous atmosphere. Although i may have left on a sour note and friendships may fade, the feeling of such seemingly trivial events will forever be ingrained in my memory. Each and every one of them are precious pieces of gold that combine to make up the treasure trove of memories that exist in my mind...

Everything's signed...

I am now a commercial kiddie.

Yay.

Alexander McQueen

What happened, really?

RIP

Nick offers cop blowjob in return for release.

So, the former Prada boy, Nick Snider gets arrested for public drunkenness and disorderly conduct and continually offers the police officer a blowjob in return for his freedom.

I always knew he was one of the classier ones.
