I think this young veteran designer is just what this prestigious French couture house needs. At 15, this Columbian born prodigy was already showing a 30- piece collection for a collective show at Miami International Fashion Week and has not stop designing since then.
In 2004, long-time supporter Cindy Crawford was lured from retirement to open and close for the young luminary. I can’t wait to see what he does for Ungaro.

Then I ditched Katy, who was recovering from a 5-day love fest with her boy Travie from Gym Class Hero’s... Oh hey. I then activated the hero phone and had my fellow hero Shannon Woodward meet me out for a drink at the Pre- GQ party held at Wintsons in West Hollywood where we meet up with New York's hottest bachelor and good friend Aaron Stern. After exhausting that party of all its free beverages, Shannon, Aaron and I decided we should get a bit to eat, mind you its only 9:30 PM. So off to Hollywood's newly opened Katsuya, designed by the famed Philippe Starck. During dinner, I made plans with LA’s newcomer Jared Craft to meet us at Katsuya so we could all then roll over to S Bar; and that’s what we did. We quickly left S Bar after a drink, following out Brent Bolthouse and Melissa Stuart to the place where everyone knows your name, no not Cheers, but Hyde. And Hyde we did, along with everyone in the city (who activated the party phone tree?!) And that’s where we ended our night.

It's no secret that we treasure, idealize, and immortalize the beauty that women like Kate, Giselle, Naomi, & Gemma bring to the world, one strut and photograph at a time. So much is our fascination that their first names are now permanently embedded onto our collective consciousness.But what about Mathias, Sean, & Evandro?
In a universe not too far away, male models are being given kudos, categorized and placed in a hierarchy of achievement.
So, now there's no reason not know or jump in on male model mania.
At models.com, they have taken the initiative to rank the current, most visible, and best paid 50 model guys. And yeah, you guess it; Mathias, Sean, and Evandro are leading the pack.

DREAMING DALI BY ALEXIS BOHAS

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Salvador Dali is everybody's favorite surrealist. Take a glance at his nightmare-ish, dream-like world at the latest LACMA exhibit showcasing. Sure we all know him for painting those melting clocks but did you know he was a Hollywood hipster? His mad skills can be seen in the Alfred Hitchcock film Spellbound, which he created backdrops for, and he even took a stab at drawing cartoons for a Disney movie based on his eccentric imagination. You can view this unusual and abstract fairytale in one of the many rooms displaying his wide array of work. Although most of his paintings are on a much smaller scale, his contribution to the big screen is truly "high art". What was he on? And where can I get some?

EVEL KNIEVEL. HE DEAD....

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Evel Knievel, the red-white-and-blue-spangled motorcycle daredevil whose jumps over crazy obstacles including Greyhound
buses, live sharks and Idaho’s Snake River Canyon made him an international icon in the 1970s, died Friday. He was 69.
Knievel’s death was confirmed by his granddaughter, Krysten Knievel. He had been in failing health for years, suffering from diabetes and pulmonary fibrosis, an incurable condition that scarred his lungs.
Knievel had undergone a liver transplant in 1999 after nearly dying of hepatitis C, likely contracted through a blood transfusion after one of his bone-shattering spills. He also suffered two strokes in recent years.
