FIRST SNOW STORM OF THE SEASON

Not at all fashionable…borderline insane actually…LOL. But I felt daring and very California-ish. I have spent the last 18 years in Los Angeles and though this is my second snow in those many years…it is still surreal…to say the least. I got absolutely NO sleep in anticipation of this storm…I was like a little kid waiting for the snow. I photographed it from its beginning…to this…the finally hour of the storm.

Funny…this is my first picture of me on my blog…sorry for not being completely fashionably laid out for you…but honestly I am not always so elegant…If I have a Gallery Opening to go to then I will get as they say DONE…this was not one of those moments…LOL

BLOGGING...

Again fashion blogging “for me” has got to be the most…well…I do not know how to put it. During Fashion Weeks it is absolutely fabulous…but the in between times I find myself in a sort of lull. Fashion and especially trends are for ever changing and to stay on top of them is arduous to say the least.


How does one become famous in the fashion industry? Hard work my friend…and patience…as the old saying goes…good things come to those who wait. My question is how long must one wait? LOL But seriously…this industry is so very cutthroat and if you do not have the thick skin to deal with…let’s say the cattiness of fashion insiders then you most assuredly will not make it. I saw a famous blogger during New York Fashion Week…introduced myself and asked him what one must do to be famous as a blogger? His reply was…”Time…and to pull and absolutely fabulous fashion stunt.” Well I am much too dignified to pull stunts not to say too old to be pulling STUNTS…but I do have time. I read somewhere that fashion blogger Bryanboy waited six years before he got an invite to a show. I will just continue what it is I am doing and paying the 100 dollars a show to get in then maybe I will get an invite…LOL

JUST A THOUGHT...

Make art...make plans...make money...make love...make haste...make time...so the process of reflection and resolutions begins. Living with my hands and heart wide open in 2011.

COUNTDOWN TO A HAPPY NEW YEAR

Hamilton Fashion Blog wishes you all the very best this coming 2011...WEAR DIOR NOT WAR...

GRACE JONES

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVv_tvEwWQo   I absolutely love the relationship Grace had with artist Keith Harring...he also worked with her on her B-movie VAMP...doing the body makeup.

THOUGHT

This blogging is the one most difficult thing I have ever endeavoured...who exactly am I writing to?  Who reads it...who cares?  The answer is I care...for that alone I do this...will I ever be recognized?  I doubt it but I will continue...out of my love for Fashion and trends.   Will I ever get advertisers...will I ever get comments...this has yet to be seen...but I continue...and shall continue.

thank God for Habibi supporting my interests...without that I really do not know what I would do...for this has got to be the most unrewarding job I have ever had.  I wonder how many new Bloggers are out there feeling what it is that I feel?  I can only imagine...we all want to be Tavi and Bryanboy...it is ridiculous to think this way for we are ourselves and what we bring to our blogs are deeply ours and no one elses.

In the ever changing in Fashion we will never be without subject matter...just Followers LOL...but seriously I could write on fashion and the latest trends that are forever changing from moment to moment...and still not say enough...and with that I MUST LAUGH...

THE NEW PRINCESS

Ok ok…I said I would not, but inevitable I knew I would…designers are going crazy, submitting sketches for the new Princesses Wedding Gown…the designer for Gucci just submitted a one shoulder sleek gown…to be considered…of course the veil goes on forever…
