Marc Jacobs Samples Are Size Four and NOT Size Zero
Fact: most designer samples that are used on the runway shows range from size 2 to size 6 and not "size zero" as what the media likes to portray.


I took part at a magazine shoot (cover!!) in Singapore the other day. I saw this rack of Marc Jacobs original spring 2011 runway samples that were specially flown in from New York for the shoot and guess what -- they're all size four!

RIP Marc Jacobs Sunglasses
Hu hu hu I'm so sad. Another city, another item lost. Excuse me while I mourn the loss of my beloved Marc Jacobs sunglasses. I've lost them in Singapore. I have a feeling I dropped it while watching one of the shows at the tents during Audi Fashion Festival.

I always lose something precious every time I travel.
Forget the fact that I've lost my cellphone this Friday. It's the third
time I've lost my phone this year. I've left it in a cab after a night
out.
But yeah... Balenciaga glasses? Left it at a toilet cubicle in Narita airport en route to Detroit after a trip to Australia. Fox fur stole? Stolen by a thieving midget of a lesbian bull dyke in Plastic in Milan last year. Lanvin sneakers? Left it in Milan this March. I was on the verge of losing my Chanel bag when I got mugged in Paris last October -- it's a good thing the not-so-street-smart robbers were only after my money and not my bag which they could've sold on eBay. I guess they didn't see the resale value in that. Then there's a time when I thought I've lost my passport in Sydney airport because I spent my time going through duty-free fragrances, drunk! I left my passport AND boarding pass on a counter somewhere and I only found out about it when the boarding gate attendant handed it to me prior to boarding the plane -- not the other way around!

Marc Jacobs Advertising + Juergen Teller Book Signing
I'm a big fan of Juergen Teller's work. When I was younger, I bought his spectacular model casting book "Go Sees". So when the lovely folks at Marc Jacobs invited me to his book signing event at the Palais Royal Paris store, this time, it's for the enormous coffee table Marc Jacobs Advertising book, I had to come visit and see him in flesh.
