April 23 It's Fashion BabyMy favorite AW2008 show-Mcqueen's
   The one element that has gone missing in the collections is the spine-tingling, eye-welling emotion of a show so exceptional to witness that—despite all exhaustion, cynicism, and workaday pressures—it suddenly transforms being involved in fashion into a magical privilege. Just when it seemed like that feeling was virtually extinct, Alexander McQueen handed his audience a self-imagined fantasy of crinolined princesses and British-colonial romance of such beauty, it arguably surpassed anything he's achieved in 14 years.
"I've got a 600-year-old elm tree in my garden," he said, "and I made up this story of a girl who lives in it and comes out of the darkness to meet a prince and become a queen." After a trip to India, the designer worked like a fiend for months in his studio, with images of Queen Victoria, the Duke of Wellington, and the Indian Empire running through his mind. They were transformed into ballerina-length multi-flounced dance dresses, each more insanely exquisite than the last: A miraculous red-feather-fronted number turned to burst into a froth of creamy frills in back; another came covered in baby-fine knitted lace; a third had a pair of peacocks—again fashioned from cutout black lace—with their tail feathers fanning out over ivory tulle petticoats.
Interspersed were rigorously cut military tailcoats with taut pants detailed with military frogging, and slim brocade and cloque pantsuits with crisp white high-necked shirts. Then there was a stately parade of imperial-red and velvet jackets bedecked with millions of dollars' worth of antique Indian diadems and diamond neckpieces, and yet more incredible rich Empire-line saris and wispy dishabille transparencies. These were followed by a sequence of gold-encrusted, ermine-coated glory, echoing the heyday of Norman Hartnell and Hardy Aimes' fifties British couture as worn by Elizabeth II.
Whatever had triggered this new lease of inspired design, it went further than the mere rendition of fanciful costume for the sake of telling a story. Importantly, McQueen finally found it in himself to quash the confining, uptight carapace that had held back former collections, replacing it with a new sense of lightness and femininity. Meanwhile, for all the transporting spectacle and extravagance, the narrative never submerged the sense that, within this wonder, there's plenty to wear, too. No coincidence, then, that McQueen today announced that his company has gone into profit for the first time. It was a day when his brilliance had never shone more brightly.– Sarah Mower
Mcqueen的这季太抢眼球了，刚发布的秋冬中最喜欢的一个系列。细节，细节，细节。很多很用心才能做出来的细节。时装发展到这个阶段其实在样式方面已经有一定局限了，毕竟人的身体构造就是那样，手脚没办法长在别处，只能是把创新放在工艺上，不断的变化玩花样。
so,Details!details!dEtails!-detail is everything!
Match:Single i listened  老将出马，1个顶百。这歌换成其他人唱也没啥特点了。整张Hardcandy是Hiphop风格，不晓得会咋样，整体感觉没Confession来的冲击力大。M这次的宣传照也不是很好，有点造作。 Neo-soul是啥？据说Erykah就是这样风格，不懂。honey在我听来算另类的了。很喜欢这封面。 07的AI冠军没什么劲的感觉，No air唱的算很卖力。她的高音听久了会让我也no air. 他唱着“i don't need car i don't need money...",谎言十足的歌。 声音好骚在这首，喜欢穿插其中的电子。 我听了一个月就算看了歌词也不明白usher在表达什么，club那么多人要怎么make love,我不会。 她的dutchess我怎么就听漏了finally呢，第6主打，现在去哪来张专辑有6个主打的，fergie,红红红，很有意思看到fergie作为童星演的第1个角色，是88年的一个很傻x的恐怖电影，叫monster in the closet,当时fergie被怪物吃掉了。 sexy can i ,很容易上口，最近出来好几个rapper都是Yu* 或young开头的，完全无法辨别。 Remixes比起原版更多元，加入了busta,cici等都唱Rap,cici的声音和janet很像。duet的那个版本每人一句要好仔细分才能听出来，janet的音高，尖。cici的比较沙。 去看mv里她和chris brown的舞蹈就行了。把tpain忽略掉。 完全为了fergie啊。 ......不知道怎么说这歌，只是有些时候在车上不由自主的听了多次。没啥特色。 听多了吵闹的歌来个安静点的也无妨。 最近可火了她，我看到有人把这歌翻译为”喷血爱“，太有意思了。听了能喷血爱上它。April 20 Get married  月初张宁匆匆赶了回来，还以为她回来和我一起工作了，没想到是为她男人的大哥大嫂拍婚纱照，因为他们不想花大笔钱去影楼拍摄，要留那钱去买房子，我天，真搞不懂几千块省了下来能对在广州买房子有啥帮助。对于张宁，我已经失望至极，不过作为好朋友能帮的忙还是帮了。
80块钱买了一个2手婚纱，100块钱在碎布市场买了一些lace和假花，皇冠，80块钱买了一个有些发霉的2手精品相册，Photoshop自己做，摄影师我和宾哥复制，张宁负责化妆，小林负责打杂，华跑去租皇帝皇后的戏服，回学院借了摄影棚，一切就绪。
本来还想出去拍外景无奈那几天都是在下雨，这对新人又急着跑回老家结婚，只能全部在摄影棚拍摄，再后期把他们两人放到海边哈。这对新人还是很羞，不怎么会pose，还要教他们造型，挺有意思的一个过程。
后来我知道张宁做这么多只是为了这对大哥大嫂回去能在她未来爷爷婆婆那里美言她几句，汗。
 April 17 Hard Candy Party  4MINS的MV还是拍的很有意思：包括背景的计分牌倒数，黑色多方体入侵，人体透视解剖，麦姨的瑜伽舞蹈，不
满意的就是Justin的造型和曲头Timbaland的出现，他客串的MV太多了，看多就闷，我喜欢这首歌的Radio Edit，
嘿嘿，把Timbaland唱的全去掉了，Yeah!
 Evian最新推出的以04年麦姨巡演造型为原型设计 的限量包装，Wow
April 10 Funny Stuf 前段时间郁闷时候突然跑去市场买了个柜子抬回来拆啊订啊刷啊弄成一个DVD架子，把大学收藏的碟往上一堆，成。越发对改造家具感兴趣。我发现我应该老了越发希望我住的地方像个家，而不像以前乱七八糟啥都随便乱丢。长大了不少我发现。尽管有时在屋里工作时候照样乱七八糟，突然要找一样东西死都找不到。
很喜欢上面图片的设计，很普通很日常的东西变得有意思了。
这段感觉自己设计的concept快干了，急需充电，在公司做事慢慢磨啊磨，本来是有一个很好的concept的，经过rough sketch，style presentation，fabric selected，啥都和最初的concept背离方向了。无从下手了。估计离我的大敌--习惯性流产，不远了。May那天聊天时候引用了我这话稍微改动“流产是年轻的代价”。我想是的。
三月份除了我的XX正式走进我生活里，另外一个挺负面就是大学好友j8东以一个很卑鄙的理由和阿洁分手来掩盖自己的变心，呵呵。还记得那天刚好出差从顺德回来和洁一起去了大毛家吃饭，还没开始吃她就一边电话一边哭了，没停过。直到到我屋里稍微休息下继续哭，哭至晚上4点，第2天早上7点起来继续哭。感情东西没法说。我自己多少也经历过，得靠自己走出来。另外一个搞笑的分手就是may和marki这段苦命异国恋，分了倒好，好得那个是我，我不用再做中间人了。没想到没过几天，may的chinese boyfriend也来和她分了，那天接了她电话在那里哀叹突然没男人陪了好难受，我说你是自作孽。从此我把她在我手机上名字改为pussyjane。深刻含义。那天她刚好说她在补鞋，我劝她叫补鞋的把处女膜也给补了，从头来过。
PS:M姨终于来了，yes！
