runway recap: ep 1.

project runway. we're off!

honestly, i wasn't SUPER impressed with a lot of the designs.

i DID really liked the winning design though.

this early on, it's often hardto pick a fave

but i'm pretty sure i know who i DON'T like.

the latino with the D&G pants is at the top of the list of annoyances.

i can't believe the judges kept him. speaking of the judges,

i felt like they were REALLY harsh this ep. i kinda felt bad for everyone.

oh also, i'm not sure mckell should've gone home.

what do you think?

spectacular spectacular.

oxygen has a new show coming out: hair battle spectacular.

i'm thinking it's gonna be a half a step above rupaul's drag race,

but i'll still be tuning in. you know there's gonna be so much drama.

hair drama is the best (and worst) kind. can't WAIT!

comedy tonight!

i was invited to do the stage makeup

for men alive - the orange county gay men's chorus.

never one to turn down an opportunity, i jumped at the

chance to hone my stage makeup skills.

originally, i was slated to only do the

makeup for the bride of frankenstein...

...but ended up making up a passel of monsters.

pure craziness. pure hilarity.

here's vern. my bride. he's a doll.

rik/uncle fester was also a lot of fun to work with.

so so so SO sweet and funny.

oh and also, i met leslie jordan.

'member him? karen's nemesis on will & grace.

the man is hilarious. like...HYSTERICAL!

exhibit a: after makeup, he offered to trade my

people magazine for his already read magazines.

this is what he came back with. yep, that's right.

national enquirer. as he dropped them off he said:

"you need to read about whitney and her drug problem.

her and lindsey [lohan]...what's to become of them?!"

pure comedy.

eight is great.

project runway. season eight. tonight.

get excited, people. it's gonna be GOOD.

pic

yee-haw!

country music. can't get enough these days. weird.

between hillbilly bones and uh-uh-uh-uh-undoin' it,

i'm startin' to feel like i need to bust out m'rodeo gear.

what songs have you tappin' your feet this summer?

pomp and circumstance.

sometimes i pretend like i'm janelle monae

and do my hair in a pompadour.

t-t-t-tick on the tightrope.

renegade.

renegade craft fair.

m'girl susan is rollin' into town.

wanna come kick it with us?

c'mon then.

photo shoot.

here are a couple proofs from

last month's photo shoot. my faves, actually.

it was my first shoot, so there were definitely

some discoveries

(re: exposed undergarments, too much cleave, etc.)

but, all in all, i'm pleased.

i loooove how her highlights photographed!

and the texture (curls) is gorgeous!

isn't chelsea adorable?!

who wants to model for me next?

i'm thinking something blonde and beachy.

still love her.

'member when i gushed about janelle monae?

yep, still obsessed.

when you're done marveling, hit up miss jane's

monthly mix of musical faves. good stuff.

p.s. here's the jm original version of tightrope. so dope.

re-do.

i'm dying to re-do my bedroom but

am feeling totally uninspired lately.

i think this is just the thing to get the juices flowing.

speaking of re-dos. check this out.

twinners.

have you been watching sytycd?

you know i have. i'm obsessed.

speaking of obsessions, pretty sure my sean

looks like an older, less fruity version of this season's

kent boyd. what do you think?

tee hee.

here's a shirt for all you nyc like-ers out there.

thanks for the laugh, peanut.

bubblicious.

whilst visiting the fam in washington,

i spent HOURS blowing bubbles for my nephew.

i'd blow the bubble. he'd pop it.

he'd say, "more." i'd say, "again please."

he'd nod his head and say, "den deese."

confession: i was as entertained as he was.

want you so bad it hurts.

skype. ON YOUR PHONE.

who's feeling generous?

surfin' donuts.

miss katie and i hit up surfin' donuts

for a little fifth of july breakfast.

we ordered breakfast burritos.

katie got hers with extra eggshell. gag.

besides that little snafu, the food was delish!

i really enjoyed the wall o' tiles.

my fave was the one on the far right, second from the bottom.

it's an old fashioned donut and the caption says:

"retro, not old fashioned."

oh em gee.
