A couple weeks ago when Anna was in town, we and Kate and Alana did some impromptu zoological photography. Believe it or not, this is all stuff we had around the house. Christian likes him some feathers.

As usual, fashion week is trying nerves and kicking ass. Poor Carolina Herrera and her spotlight trouble. I’m doing a lot less this season than in seasons past, and I’m still overwhelmed. Christian is gone every day from dawn til bedtime, not sleeping, double booking, driving himself crazy. But it will all be worth it in the end on Thursday when he shows what I think is going to be his best collection yet. It’s gonna be amazing. I finished the runway music, so that’s a weight off. The stress level is high for various reasons, and I’m going to be glad when things die down a bit.

What was particularly fun was the kickoff to fashion week – the Heart Truth’s Red Dress Collection – where many designers dressed celebrities in red for the runway. Christian was asked to dress Valerie Bertinelli. We had front row seats for the show next to Kellie Pickler, who was beautiful and said “y’all” a lot. Valerie looked so good, so confident, she totally stole the show for me. Jane Kaczmarek backstage was super nice, and I got particularly surreal-ed out when I saw John Basedow talking with Gerard Butler. Some things, I just don’t get. I loved that Hilary Duff walked to her own song, and that Tori Spelling walked to “Two of Hearts.” The whole show was like a party, loose and fun and celebratory.

Christian and Tori filmed for her show backstage at the Red Dress show, and on Saturday she and her film crew came to our house to discuss something (you’ll see soon enough). She’s a lot of fun. Topper scratched the shit out of her. Then on Saturday night we went to the Mercedes-Benz party and had some good, much-needed hangout time with Geneva and Lisa and Josh. Best part of the week.

I moseyed over here from your mom’s blog and have been reading for awhile. I had a dream the other night that I moved to NYC to be ya’lls (I’m from TN) assistant. Instead, I ended up being Topper’s bitch. It was a hilarious and awesome dream.
