ROOFTOP FIESTA WITH A GIRL TALK HANGOVER...

Indigo (my new favourite friend in the Big Smoke) & I had a Mexican Fiesta on our rooftop on Saturday night...  Together we are naughty and nice, leather and lace, black and white... yin and yang!

On Sunday (nursing a hangover from heaven) we had brunch at Five Leaves (Heath Ledger's cafe) in Williamsburg and then skipped our way down to the Pool Party. Ummmmm... AMAZE... Girl Talk played to a crowd of 8,500 hipsters jumping around out of control.. peeps were jumping the gates and over port-a-loos to get in... as the clouds rolled in through his set the stage broke and the skies opened up... I felt like I was at Glastonbury dancing in the rain... All time closing song... Elton John Tiny Dancer... 

"Blue Jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band

Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man"

It was everything I want and more (not just the lyrics) haha... 

My friend Nat posted some sweet shots on his site.. they are truly EPIC!

The night carried on at Jeremy's farewell party and then @ the Brooklyn Bowls... 

Best day hands down in NYC... 

Blog Shouts.. Hip Hip Hooray...

Met this girl yesterday at the Pool Party who gave me and Erika a shout out on her blog... Pretty funny cause she thought we were English... Must be my drunken accent (or so I've been told).

I'M A MOTHER....

I got a job freelancing at an experiential marketing agency in East Village called Mother...

On another note, I met this Aussie guy called Nat yesterday and he has this wicked photo journal blog... really talented dude and super sweet.

72 HOURS IN THE CITY...

I had a pretty epic weekend in NYC... It goes a little something like this (*cue* Run DMC) ... 

Friday night 8pm- Dinner at Fette Sau ('fat pig' in German) which is a meat BBQ type place.. they serve beer out of glass jars and the meat comes on a big tray for everyone to scavenge off... not for VEGETARIANS!!

We then made our way to the Union Pool which is an old pool supply store now fitted with a 60's vibe.. it even has a stone pond outside to dip your feet in on a hot tiger balm night... 

Saturday 3pm-  We went to P.S.1 which is an old school turned into a modern art exhibition space. We wondered around the exhibits which ranged from pieces of paper on the wall to a pool you could walk underneath the water and look up from... 

At around 3pm the entrance to the venue turns into a huge outdoors party called the 'warm up' party... It is crazy electronic music (changes every Saturday through Summer) and they have a BBQ cook off and booze in abundance... 

We left Williamsburg and ventured to the Chelsea Piers in Manhatten to board an old salvaged boat called 'The Frying Pan'... really brings meaning to a 'dive' bar!

I then treked back to the 'burg' to a rooftop party for some friend's joint b'days... SOOOOO much fun! The night ended with a bar fight... 36 stitches in a friends hand after falling through a glass table and an impromptu photoshoot with the girls outside the Emergency room in West Village... 

What can I say?? Just bringing the West side to the East side!!

Sunday 4pm- Made our way to my new favourite Sunday haunt the Williamsburg East River 'Pool Party'... Followed by dinner @ Mugs Alehouse and then the Brooklyn Bowl for afterparty... 

I won't lie... it did carry on through Monday but I'll leave the rest of the details a mystery :-)

Cheers to you NYC xx

Just BE.

L.A

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANDY WARHOL...

Andy Warhol would have been 81 today... you most certainly outlived your '15 minutes of fame'... my friend. 

"People need to be made more aware of the need to work at learning how to live because life is so quick and sometimes it goes away too quickly"

Andy Warhol. 

WHAT LAYS AHEAD IS UP TO ME...

I moved to Williamsburg on Saturday.. it was tough considering I was still hungover from Friday night's shenanigans...my friend Danny was ever so kind to hike my suitcases up 4 floors of stairs.. BLESS YOUR COTTON SOCKS. 

You can climb up to the roof from my room.. it is so sexy up there.. feels like I should be dressed in blue and white stripes with a painted on mustache, with a bottle of vino, an array of fine cheeses and an easel painting the view of Manhattan spread out before me... 

On Saturday, I went to the Old American Can Factory rooftop in Brooklyn to see a bunch of short films on the changing landscape in industry, architecture and labour... INDUSTRIANCE. I love the way people can run with the theme and create a short as bizarre as 'The Chronicles of Concrete'??? Ummmmm... WTF!

LOVE FROM NYC

Comune for Peace.

Comune fashion party, in the OC. 

Art show, band, free beer and free mexican food. 

What more could you ask for really. Oh and a ton of hot people! 

Me loves the States.

MARILYN MONROE SAID IT PERFECTLY...

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes. I'm out of control and at times hard to handle, but if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
