cheers, old chap...

long time, no? my apologies, but it's been rather crazy these past few weeks with jeffrey trying to balance design responsibilities for both his own line and bill blass, which has meant that i've had to step up.

just today, the buyer from barney's came in to see how the fall 2010 collection is coming along. the good news is that she liked it and could see where we were trying to go with the collection. in other words, she got the collection. the bad news however, is that she said it needed more color. consequently, we had to do a major overhaul of the collection...with only a week and a half left before fashion week. who does she think she is? sigh...c'est la vie...

strangely, i should be more concerned about working this much than i am. i know i've chosen a potentially very lonely lifestyle, but the problem is that i love the work :-/

i suppose the deeper problem with loneliness is that it can rather easily lead to detachment. and sometimes, the people who need to reach out the most are the ones who are the least capable of it. i don't know if it's happening to me, but i have been feeling a bit jaded about being intentional in my relationships...

i need to watch tom ford's directorial debut. i heard it was brilliant...just like everything else he does.
