Day...oh never mind!
Did you miss me? My wonderful and loyal readers...all six of you! Lol.
Wow, what a crazy couple of weeks I have had! A big THANK YOU to my friends Abs, YB and DM and my sisters who never tired of listening to me moaning about one thing or another! I love you! Now where was I? Oh yes, so I have finally found a place of my own. Well, a room really. It's on the outskirts of Paris. An area called La Defense. Nice area. Not quite Montmatre, with its cobbled streets and picturesque achitecture, but it will do for now. I am sharing a house with a French man - an absolute gentleman might I add. My parents were totally freaked out by the idea but I really do think we will get along great. Although, we do seem to be very different. Whereas I 'm your typical creative with a short attention span, who is extremely inquisitive and disorganized, he is tres logical, disciplined, organized and a clean freak to boot (dude has house cleaning instructions pinned to the kitchen wall!!) But the mutual respect is there. Should be an interesting few months :o)
We finally presented our 'Alexander Mcqueen spa' yesterday. And I must say, it didn't look half bad at all. We used the futuristic look of his stores as a foundation and built on it. We had the Water, Technology and Earth&Gothic rooms (each inspired by his collections.) Not to forget the Salt cave with its black walls (to give the spa an edge like Mr. Mcqueen is prone to doing.) I think we did a tremendous job and I wouldn't have minded visiting such a spa - if I may say so myself. Lol.
I don't know how Scott Schuman (of The Satorialist fame) does it but, wooow. I had this assignment where I had to be a street style photographer for the day and analze the different styles synonymous with each district in Paris. Never been so scared in my life. It was so hard. But when you did find someone with that special 'something', oh what a rush!! Mr.Schuman, I salute you!
On a final note, we have had fantastic weather here in Paris this week and I really hope it continues. I can't wait to see Paris in the springtime.
I will be adding another page to this blog within the next couple of days. Just lil' things that catch my eye on this interesting adventure I'm on. Sort of like 'Paris through my eyes' type of thing. Quite looking forward to it actually.
Bisous!
