I got bored in the middle of a rain Storm here in New York, and decided to go and shave my three-days off… Then I realized I had more than three days in my face, and I ended up having a mustache… I found it weirdly interesting, because I have never had it before, and also never thought that I could have one. I ran out to one of my best friends to show her, and she, of course cause she knows me, thought that I was joking…again… but I wasnt really sure if I was.
It is very personal to grow hair in your face, escpecially if you do something new. Suddenly there is a new personality in front of you… Its like a “who am I moment”.. Can I wear the same outfits as before? Should I hang with the same crowd? Shall I start flirting with girls? A mustache is a very macho statement..almost a little too much too handle if you dont know what to do with it, and I must admit Im a little insecure, but I guess thats a good thing. Ill call this, my very own “mustache challenge”, and I´ll see where I end up within a week. Is it still there, or will it be gone, just like a cab driver when you say you are going to Brooklyn?! Will I end up wearing Abercrombie & Fitch, and move to the forrest or pretend Im a Lumberjack, like that is ok? From the history, a beard and a mustache has a certain level of sophistication, and when guys go to a barber, it is a very masculine rituale, like women at the nail salon. It has certain rules, that I really want to explore, cause I never did. Ill keep you guys posted on this experience.
Everytime any celebrity grows a mustache, there is a big fuzz. And even on the runway of Betsey Johnson, Kelly Osbourne had a mustache, and looked weirdly good with it. Well, lets just have some fun with it, like these mother fuckers underneath:

Me in my new, white goat fur (and if PETA wants to throw red paint on it, I would gladly wear it after, with a “bucket full of charm”)
The ethical view of PETA is totally understandable, especially when it comes to killing “innocent” animals, living a poor life inside of cages. Of course no one likes to watch pictures of how bad some of these animals are treated, which they often like to show in their propaganda against fur (allthough animals treated bad, doesnt provide any good fur, so those places are not the common ones) This is a major subject, and I won´t write, what could have been a whole book, on this post, but I just found a webpage, that is called www.petakillsanimals.com, and would like to point out something interesting:
PETA’s “Animal Record” report for 2009, filed with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, shows that the animal rights group killed 97 percent of the dogs and cats in its care last year. During all of 2009, PETA found adoptive homes for just eight pets. Since 1998, PETA has opted to “put down” 23,640 adoptable dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens instead of finding homes for them.
HOW did this happen? Sarcasticly, Im tempted to say: “imagine how many pairs of shoes and handbags that could be”! But I wont go there….YET… but the irony here is just “hilarious”!
Why would an animal rights group secretly kill animals at its headquarters? PETA’s continued silence on the matter makes it hard to say for sure. But from a cost-saving standpoint, PETA’s hypocrisy isn’t difficult to understand: Killing adoptable cats and dogs – and storing the bodies in a walk-in freezer until they can be cremated – requires far less money and effort than caring for the pets until they are adopted.
PETA has a $33 million annual budget. But instead of investing in the lives of the thousands of flesh and blood creatures in its care, the group spends millions on media campaigns telling Americans that eating meat, drinking milk, fishing, hunting, wearing leather shoes, and benefiting from medical research performed on lab rats are all “unethical.”
The bottom line: PETA’s leaders care more about cutting into their advertising budget than finding homes for the six pets they kill on average, every single day.
The Virginia Beach SPCA, just down the road from PETA’s Norfolk headquarters, manages to adopt out the vast majority of the animals in its care. And it does it on a shoestring budget.
Years of public outrage has not been enough to convince PETA to eliminate its pet eradication program.
Now the death toll of animals in PETA’s care has reached 23,640, including more than 2,000 pets last year. That’s not an animal charity. It’s a slaughterhouse.
Well, anyway… I would just like to go back to the fur part… because, YES, I LOOVE fur, and Im so excited about these beautiful collections from:
Altuzarra
Alexander Wang
Jason Wu
Doo.ri
Chloé
Balmain
Erin Wasson x RVCA
Vanessa Bruno
Lanvin
And the Lanvin collection is simply to…eh…die for! Im not meen, just very in love with fur…as well as other beautiful things. Some of you will hate it, some of you will love it, and thats how it goes..over and over again.
Have a beautiful day, and I guess we for now can be happy that summer is coming, and thats not the most furry season anyway!
LOVE

If he can say that Mariah Carey looked stylish in whatever boring and old looking dress she was wearing, I would have to say to him: “dont ever put your words on my lips, and claim that “we” hate anything”, (allthough my grammar could use a little makeover) cause Sarah Jessica Parker and Diane Kruger looked very modern and chic in their Chanel couture, and it is very refreshing to see something that is not THAT obvious, as again: WHATEVER Mariah Carey was wearing!

If this was a disease, I would give her my sympathy, but since its Dior, I just want to give her a “style-slap”! You should for sure call me next year, and I will make sure that your breasts will get back to their original shape.

BUT, Amanda Seyfried and Jennifer Lopez, who I really think is one of the best dressed of the evening, ended up almost wearing the same dress. Of course, since its couture, they would´nt end up in such a drama, but the fabric was the same, and parts of the construction has the same edge, so if they got shot side by side on the red carpet, they would look like they were starring in the follow up of “Dreamgirls”. Their dresses are from the 2010 Armani Privé Couture collection, and are totally stunning! Armani Prive says: “The dresses features high-tech, futuristic fabric with a revealing front slit and a crescent-shaped bustier that cascades into a dramatic side train accented by Swarovski rock crystals.’ Well, allthough they look like they are more than ready to get married, they sure look good in these bubblewrapped up irridecent pink dresses.

I caught supermodel Georgina Stojilkovic (WOMEN) in having a little fag, before one of her shows. What is a supermodel to do, while waiting, waiting and waiting to send those longs sticks of legs down the runway?! And I love her fur! Gotta have them fur in the closet… Yes, Peta, gotta have them fur!
