People I want to drink with

I been a Tom Hanks fan since I was a little girl.  Way back starting with his Bosom Buddies days. I always knew he was a cool guy and now these photos prove it. Seems this guy ran into the actor at some dinner in Fargo.

On Vacation

Sorry, it's been so long since my last post, but I'm traveling around at the moment and have become lazy. Personally, I blame a little thing called cable for my lack of posting. I'm at my parent's house in St. Louis and I'm not ashamed to admit I have perfected the art of doing nothing. It the first time in a while that I don't have to don't anything and I'm enjoying it a bit too much. But never fear fair readers as I will be back in the saddle soon because a girl like me get bored of doing nothing. So look for my adventure about Tales of the Cocktails and my travels soon.  OK, now back to my lounging and drinking.

Jean Paul Gaultier x Diet Coke

Forget about the latest "It" bag as it's going to be the little silver cans that will surely to become the hottest accessories during fashion week as  French couturist Jean-Paul Gaultier has given the Diet Coke cans a make-over.

If I Every Win the Lotto...

I'm so buying this. For me, this is a dream come true.I'm not one for camping, but I would make an exception for this sweet thing It's a home, it's a bar.  It's a home with a bar with all the essentials you need in life-booze. It's everything that a girl like me could every hope for. Who wants some old stinking diamonds as I much rather have a  Woody (not what you dirty minded folks are thinking), a cocktail bar on wheels that designed by UK interior designer, Brad Ford.

my latest obsession:Cambridge Satchel Bag

As a girl who is use to buying stuff at thrift stores, I have become obsessed Cambridge Satchel Bag.  I want one so bad that me (who is cheap) is willing to shell out  the cash ($100-$165) on this bag. The bags come in an assortment of styles like the Cambridge Satchel Backpack, Batchel, Music Bag, The Fluoro and The Metallic, but I want the green bag because it will match with my Nixon Watch. And beside I do look good in Neon. Oh, I wish I was so lucky that I could walk in some  Goodwill  today and there would be one for five buck, but I'm not that lucky. If I was, I  be a lotto winner. So, I'm just going to have  to buck up be an adult, cut back on my drinking, save my pennies and buy myself this bag. I need it, I want it, and I won't be happy till till the bag is in my hot little hands.Hmm, I might have to hit up the parents (yes, I know I'm grown), but they are spending my future inheritance now, so they I  figure they could at least buy me this bag, right.

London Show Rooms Returns to Los Angeles

Note, I covered this event in March, but in the Blogging world, it's never to late to post something

The British Fashion Council’s international London showrooms tour made a pit stop in Los Angeles to parade London’s brightest designers making waves with their work. Held at Ace Gallery in Mid-Wilshire,  the showroom showcased a selection of BFC/Vogue Designer Fashion Fund shortlisted designers including E.Tautz, Jonathan Saunders, Louise Gray, Marios Schwab, Mary Katrantzou, Nicholas Kirkwood, Peter Pilotto, Richard Nicoll, Roksanda Ilincic Todd Lynn,David Koma, Holly Fulton, J.W. Anderson and Michael van der Ham.

During the private three-day showcasing, invitees had an opportunity to meet some of London's top designers and take a look at their latest collection. And  I was one of the lucky few who got in and boy, we were blown away by the amazing collections.

“GORDY RECOMMENDS…” THAT YOU MAKE A DRINK

“The Scurvy Screw”

Finally, my love for art and booze comes together and  I don't just mean me drinking some wine while I pretend to understand and like a piece of art  in some cray-cray exhibit.   I was looking and  my friend's site, Pop Curious  and  came across a post about "Gordy Recommends.. ", a  series of themed vintage looking painting created by artist Gordy Grundy ( nice name) with obscure classic cocktail recipes superimposed on it. Not only do you get this cool recipe, but good ol' Gordy also tells you just how you should be feeling while you're drinking this lovely libation.  Now, that's the type of artwork I like. Something usefully instead of just sitting on the wall looking pretty.  Now, If  only Gordy could just recommends some lotto ticket numbers, I be all set.  Take a gander at the painting below and then perhaps, make yourself a drink. I know I am.

Photobooth Art

I make this Look Good

As ya'll know,  I'm a photobooth whore. I have to take them everytime I see one.  So when I found out there's an app, I had to play around with it. So here are some drunken images of me goofing around with my friend's Tom's I phone in and around Kingston while out on the town!!!!! Guess That IPhone is good for something.
