le weekend!

Thursday, July 15th, 2010
I have a confession to make!  I failed on my goal to not consume any alcohol for a week!   You would think that I could go with out drink for 7 days but on the the 5th day I gave in!  LOL!  I was doing already so well and then my dear friend from Canada was visiting and I hosted a dinner for him!   I felt guilty for a like a few hours and then decided to give it another go this week!  Anyway let me tell you what I did over the weekend.
Leica Carpo came in my office for a final meeting on her wedding gown and entourage before I start production!  My muse and dearest friend will be getting married in 4 months and I need to start on this ASAP!  After our productive meeting she invited me to a furniture store opening in Greenbelt 5.  The store is simply called INTERIORS!   I really think my Mom would love this store, it was filled with all the things that she would love!  Perhaps if and when she decides to renovate I will take her here.
 This Chandelier is from the store called INTERIORS!  It just opened and It is located in Greenbelt 5.  Come check it out!

Then we went to have dinner in our “club house” other wise known as CIRCULO!  I love it here as it is really like home to me and my friends!  What started out as a dinner for six ended to be a full on party for 12! LOL!  After  dinner and a whole lot of  drinks we all decided to head out to REPUBLIQ!    Things were seriously happening in the club that night as  it was the USHER concert after party!  It was a really super fun night that ended up pretty early in the morning!  LOL!  I promised myself that I really have to lessen my going out and concentrate on a healthier lifestyle and this is my ultimate goal!  I know I can do this!  Anyhoo here are pictures from my weekend!
 Stacy and Nix were bonding that night!

The HOL Team @ THE PREVIEW BALL!

Monday, July 5th, 2010

I pride myself in having the best team in the world!  I love my House of Laurel team because they are not just employees.  To me they are my family!  We see each other day in and day out often longer than we see our own immediate family so in many ways the bonding we have at work translates in my mind as what families are all about.

I was super excited to find out that we would be all here for the Preview Best dressed ball!  Last year we could not make it because we all were in Tokyo.  However this year we would be present and in full force!    I decided to use my infamous insect collection as a starting point for our homage to the late Alexander McQueen.  His bold use of cut and graphic detail was perfect for this.   I then asked everyone to choose a dress from the collection and we all made them.  The make up would be done by my sister Gela and I wanted to have this graphic quality to it. So we used heavy black paint to color block our faces. LOL!

 This was the make up peg that I quickly sketched out for the team.
