Lane Crawford x Opening Ceremony Opening Party.
Welcome to a much need break from job hunting, enter me sipping free Veuve, snacking on ice cream cones and paparazzi-ing Chloe Sevigny.
I was invited by my Chocola BB* who works at the hotel where the OC crew are staying. These people are seriously cool, but the coolest part was undoubtedly seeing the smiling parents of the brand's creators. All in a row, sitting happily on the shoe benches amongst the Kirkwoods and the Louboutins, you could just see it in their faces how proud they were of their kids!
I brought along my Minolta with the banana sticker, enjoy the results.

1. Shirley + Su from Opening Ceremony.
2. Chloe! And, some cute guys with beards.
3. Lots of local celebrities in attendence.
4. Two gaylords.

*Chocola BB is my new favourite word, it's from a super annoying 'beauty drink' commerical here in HK. I know, beauty drink? Like, what the fuck is that? But, just sing along, Chocola BBBBBBB, it's good right? Catchy.

Some photos I took from the Fotanian 2011 Open Studios I went to a few weekends ago.
Hong Kong actually has a surprising amount of artist villages and Fotanian is a wonderful example. In Fo Tan, a former industrial area, twelve separate buildings contain over 260 artists who open up their studios each January to the eager public.
Obviously, the event draws many hipsters creative, art loving types, I have never seen so many people with analog cameras at the same time, well post 1999.

Last days of summer.
1. Lying on the grass mattress with the only boy in the world.
2. Dog models: they'll piss on your camera and then come back and do it again.
3. Modernism in Toronto, courtesy of Mies van der Rohe and some rich banking billionaires.

Last one, from that roll anyways.
This place is just down the street from me, my neighbourhood is full of interesting storefronts.

1. My old roommate's dog Lexi.
2. An ode to Juergen Teller with the shoes I diy'ed for my birthday.
3. A beautiful sign near by house, this is one of my favourites from the roll, if I had money I'd buy this sign and hang it in my house, I love it so much.

I'm a terrible paht tyme bloggah, but thanks to a little encouragement from my friend Kavi, I'm now back. Here's a lazy post to get me started. These are some shots from the first roll of film I took with the Minolta I got at the Cabbagetown garage sale back in September, but you probably don't know about that because I only planned to write a post about it in my head, head blogging is much easier than real blogging.
