Having financial stability in this city is really difficult.

Yes, ever since I was 6 years old.

An antique ring from a vintage shop in the East Village, 2 pairs of strappy, flat sandals from some boutique on Ludlow and I'm buying fabric to make dresses for my spring/summer '09 collection.
how would you describe the main difference between l.a. and new york fashion?
Well, now that Heidi Montag is a "designer" ... enough said.

A red vintage cotton sundress with my Converse Chucks.

I like house parties and working in my studio when nobody is around.
so far, what would you say is a designer no-no? (career wise)
Paying people in advance ... Big mistake!
name one thing that is currently on your mood board?
Classic YSL
blackberry or iPhone?
Blackberry for now, but considering the iPhone for quality of pictures.
