reminiscing on yesterday's NYC  
no cue ever, bypassed the velvet rope
rolled with Michael Alig, Warhol and such
save the robots -"outside you can see limousines with celebrities and rich people, the funny thing was that inside it was a mixture of rich kids, poor kids, strippers, celebrities all types in one place; melting pot".

home address: Hotel 17 "We used to live at hotel 17, a lot of rock stars used to live or stay there. Used to make parties in the roof of the hotel".


"The 80's was the greatest time of my life from every perspective. We had the best music in the world from hip hop to punk to alternative, new wave etc... the best street fashion, we discovered thrift shops which now they call it vintage stores. Nobody used to shop at thrifts, however we loved them because they carried amazing vintage and antique furniture at affordable prices" Giovanni F.


I don't need to look further for inspiration than these trailblazers

Had the chicest dream the other night.
I hosted a cocktail party in the middle of the desert in a Bauhaus design home in Palm Springs circa 1950's. I was mingling with my favorite rat pack designers of that time, noooo not Dior, Chanel, Balmain and noooo not the Vegas rat pack either.

I dreamt with my favorite greats of Modern Classic architecture and design. It was Eames job to prepare the dirty martinis and screw drivers. George Nelson talked about how he was inspired to create a sofa while eating marshmallows as Van Der Rohe, Grey, Noguchi, Saarinen and I listened on. I tried to get Panton (he looked like Ernest Hemmingway in the dream) to dance the Rumba and the Cha Cha Cha with me but for some odd reason my brain decided to kick out Le Corbusier and Panton from the party for starting a brawl about old school vs. new school. 
So yesterday it inspired me to dress on beat for The Party I never got an invitation for.
One, two, cha cha cha... three, four do the rumba...
How do I look ?
Now be a good boy and fetch me a dirty martini ...

These would look sooo suave on my debonair macho man. 

Usually I wear his stuff like his jeans, bow ties, boxers(when chillin' at home)and jackets. Just sucks that I could never pull these off...size wise that is jeje.

Billie Holiday - April In Paris


What I live each day I step out my door.
I see why greats such as Picasso, Van Gogh, Renoir, Monet, Lautrec, Dali, Seurat, Degas, Modigliani and others settled in this quartier. Inspiration, creativity and contagious energy abounds here. The bohemian spirit resurrects thanks to its street performers, vendors, the ladies of the night, painters, cafes, sex shops, museums, boutiques, a wine vineyard and graffiti bombing; all which breathe life and soul into it. 


J'aime my neighborhood and j'adore Paris. I am truly blessed to live here, I can't imagine living away from the city. My quartier provides the perfect eccentric diverse mashup caos I wanna raise my future family in.This album is dedicated to you.

note: If ever in the 18th arrondissement district( Montmartre, Abbesses, Pigalle...) make sure to visit, it is one of the oldest/historical district's in Paris.
