Anna Sui's NY apartment is really cool


Fashion designer Anna Sui has been one of my all time favorites. I collect all her perfume bottles and even her make-up ..... now if only I could afford her clothing! I did stock up on her Target collection and I love to wear her finger nail polish :) I even stocked up on her lingerie line she had at Victoria Secrets not too long ago! Anna Sui's store in NY is really cool as via the YouTube video I just posted but lets look inside her apartment!



                         I LOVE Anna Sui's style and now lets take one more look at her store

and this is why I love Anna Sui ..... she also has a new book out and I am saving every penny to buy it ASAP!


                                                                LOVE YA!
                                                             so be it ..... JAR

Amazing Art Work from my brother Billy

I love my older brother Billy .... he was born in Oct. 1975 and I was born in Jan. 1978, so we were very close growing up.I have looked up to him as an artist ever since we were little. When we were young he would sit and teach me how to color in my coloring book, but I was always jealous of his work in his coloring book. So I just wanted to show some of his doodles since he doesn't have enough time to ever complete a piece of art... but he should because he is Billy Rivas and he is AMAZING !!!! Love Ya!
