I just got back from our Milan & Paris buying tour.
Our buyers will report to you for our Fall/Winter '10 collection later, look forward to hearing from them!
By the way, do you know that BVLGARI owns a hotel in Milan? We had a lunch there after our appointment with Neil Barrett. We're always so busy with our appointments during our trip, so fortunately we had a few moments before moving to Paris. Rivy Ng recommended the BVLGARI hotel to us before, so why not? Lets check it out!
I didn't realize the hotel was owned by that BVLGARI! As soon as I saw the BVLGARI logo I put it together. We were very fortunate that the weather was so nice, and we chose a table on their garden patio. Great location, great service, and great meals... Nothing to complain about here! And about the taste of lunch? ... to be continued by our buyers!
Well.... can you believe that I'll be a New York University's student from this monday. One day, I visited the NYU student office. I was not sure about myself taking classes there, just wanted to see how it was. Coincidentally, it was a exam day for new students this semester. So why not! I took a exam and now I am a NYU student! I have class from Monday to Friday 9am till 12;45pm. Many people said that I have to manage tons of homework every single day.... Oh my goodness.... Anyway,
After a long time off....I finally go back to school after 30-years blank! I'll keep sending you reports of my campus life here. This is my student card!!!! How do I look?
It has been 5-days since I've arrived back from Hawaii. I enjoyed my two weeks there, both working and my days off. I played golf and also went surfing, a favorite pastime that I enjoy. I haven't gone surfing in three years, and I realized how much I missed it. Maybe.... I'll get back to it again.
Take a close look at the photo here. Guess who is holding a golf club? Yes, it is Max - the designer of Yoshinori Kotake! He is also a real surfer too, and your wondering why his golf wear has a surf style? He said that he wants to add more of a "surf inspired" design in to his collection next season!
I have been running around to appointments since I came back to NY. I visited 3.1 Phillip Lim to see their resort line, and then went to see Balenciaga's holiday bag collection. Both of their collections are very attractive. I'm sorry that I can't show you their new collection here... but
I'll show you just one item that I really liked from 3.1 Phillip Lim
OK, I better go now! time to get back to basics.
I haven't left New York for so long this time. It's finally my chance to go back to Hawai!!
Sending you a few stories just before I go to Hawaii.... I found very handsome motorcycle yesterday. The shape, balance... everything was perfect! I went to a restaurant called "TON TON" in the West Village. They are very famous for their pigs feet dishes. I have never had pigs feet, but they are so good! I ate so much and took natural collagen from their authentic Japanese soul food. It's always nice to try some new things in my life!!!
