Bluetoothing it up

So as of July 1st in CA the law says that you may not drive and talk on your cell phone at the same time.Hands Free! So what I did to day was purchased one of these fancy looking machines for myself. The one I got was the Jawbone. It apparently got an award for it, so it must be good! And its kinda cute looking, quilted look, like a channel bag! Anyways, I got one...and its been 2 hours so far, no phone calls. Iam sitting here in front of my computer at home waiting for a call... someone please call me so I can use this neat little gadget!

FRIEDIA SMAAASHHHHH!!

Hey you guys! Iam back! It has been a very difficult month for me to write or do pretty much anything..but then I had a dream...
I know it may sound weird to you guys, but ever since that day, my brother has been in every dream, everyday.And about a week ago he was in my dream again and asked me to meet him in this room ,and he wasnt there, it was just his spirit reflecting in the mirror. And I asked " what happened to you? Why are you fading away?" And he told me that he was tired of roaming the earth and was ready to go to Heaven....And for me to be happy. Not to worry about him...
And like most mornings, I woke up crying, but this time it was different. Something felt better than yesterday...I dont know how to explain it. I still have my moments, those are still there...And I have decided to be happy for him. To live life to the fullest for him.So, I started to reach out to my friends again.( Sorry everyone for not calling, emailing etc...)
The first thing fun we decided to do was go watch the HULK movie when it came out. I wasnt too into it, so to entertain myself some more I went over to Target and bought myself some HULK gloves! That talks!
We took this photo before we went in. AND you know what! I enjoyed the movie so much! It was a fun night! Glad we did that.
:)
I have also decided to start blogging some more.Be a famous blogger one day!
So Iam back you guys! Sorry for the 1 month absence. Missed you all!

............

If the fish swam out of the ocean
and grew legs and they started walking
and the apes climbed down from the trees
and grew tall and they started talking

and the stars fell out of the sky
and my tears rolled into the ocean
now i'm looking for a reason why
you even set my world into motion

'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
'cause if you're not really here
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold

i looked up into the grey sky
and see a thousand eyes staring back
and all around these golden beacons
i see nothing but black

i feel a way of something beyond them
i don't see what i can feel
if vision is the only validation
then most of my life isn't real

'cause if you're not really here
then the stars don't even matter
now i'm filled to the top with fear
but it's all just a bunch of matter
'cause if you're not really here
then i don't want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold.............

I love you Josh....

My brother passed away last week. I really dont know how to feel or say right now.It was all so sudden. I was visiting japan while all of this happened. And was supposed to leave the next day.....
And I still cant believe it all. It has been the most longest week of my life. So many things are racing thru my head.
I knew Josh was a great, unique talented man, but he was so much more. His friends told me all these wonderful stories that I will never forget. He touched so many peoples lives. Everyone around him has such a big heart, he had really good people around him. He really makes me proud to be his older sister. His friends and I promised to smile and laugh and live life to its fullest for Josh. We know thats what he would want. Thats the type of person he was, always making others happy. I love you so much Josh. You are all around us and will always be in our hearts.

I would also like to thank everyone in Japan that helped us thru all this, you dont know how greatful Iam. Thank you.

........this photo was one of the last ones we took at Asakusa last Saturday......

Descanso Gardens

I love the gardens! Here Iam with the beautiful red roses! It was such a beautiful day!

Super Kawaii

I just saw these boots and I want them!! Iam not a big boot person, but these from Miroike, Berlin are doing it for me now!
I wanna thesea wanz~!

My trip to China!

Sorry it took me a while to put these up here! So this was my 2nd day there. The first was a lot of work and discussing what we needed to do for the next line. The factory I use is in China, but they mainly do stuff for japanese stores and or clothing lines. So they speak japanese and do very good work! They are all such hard workers! It makes me look bad!!
So back to the story. the 2nd day we went out to Shanghai to look for some soft flowy fabrics. So we headed down to this big mall type of place that had little booth like stores inside. It was all filled with beautiful fabrics! And I found a few that I will be using for my Spring 09 line and maybe carry it over to summer 09 too! And after this we had a little bit of time so we walked around a bit. They took me to "Shanghai Times Square" And there was a big Ferragamo shoe. I big photo op!
Oh, our driver had on the brightest shirt in Shanghai! I loved it!

It's finally here!! ONLINE SHOPPING!

SO here it is you guys! I finally put up an online store! There are still only a few pieces. But Iam willing to ship it out internationally! I want all those Monn'Amur supporters to wear it too!
Please go onto my website and check out " SHOP" and have fun shopping~!

Right now..

At the moment, Iam taking a break from getting ready to leave the country once again.
I leave tomorrow for China! Been working really hard for my clothing line Monn'Amur. Iam going to work on my Spring '09 collection! That far out! And I am very very excited about it. I think the line just keeps getting better and better. I cannot wait till I get to share it all with you guys. It is out in some stores in CA and one in Japan. Its taking time to get it out there more, but Iam getting very good response and its very encouraging. So, slowly but gradually it will be in your towns boutiques! I will get it out to you. Iam also in the works for doing an online store, and YES, I will ship internationally. I want you fashionistas to rock it for me! Stores in California are EM&CO on 3rd St. FRED SEGAL FUN in Santa Monica will have it by the end of next month and so will QIO. In Japan we are now selling to BEAMS. (they have been super supportive..thank you, you guys!) and through the magazine LOOK'S. So keep your eyes peeled. We will be in a store near you!

I will possess your heart

Opening of Opening Ceremony Mini Mall

I got to celebrate the opening of the 2nd floor in the LA Opening Ceremony. It is my favorite store in LA. They have amazing lines, incredible choices of great brands. I got to meet the owner.He is such a nice guy. I am happy for their new addition.There were a few designers I look up to there. But my only celebrity sighting for the night was Jason Schwartzman. Enjoy!

This is how its all done...

I did my very first shipment for Monn'Amur..(thats why I have not been on..been so busy with all of this!) And I just wanted to show you a little of how its REALLY done. Some people think that clothes just come from this magic box...I wish! But really, its a lot of hard working people behind all of the making. I have been doing as much as I can. Iam a "hands on" kinda gal. So For this piece I was up at 6:30 in the morning in beautiful Downtown LA! And just made sure everything comes out perfect.
Another thing that people think the clothing business is this glamorous life style....well, to tell you the truth...thats all a front. I get dirty at work a lot!! And I love it!

Me and my Yellow coat...

Loving the bright colors coming up for Spring and Summer.....

I saw them at LA fashion week, then found out they were from Japan. So I had to go and say hi. I placed an order right away..I cant wait to get them! I wish I was in Japan to see their store. Now I know where my first stop will be when I go back though!
"Mehem is for me, he loves ma and is desired by them"

COCO trash day

I used to sing every word!

This is Xuxa. I used to listen to her night and day! My mom has videos of me singing and dancing when she was on!
wow..I found it on youtube. Its been almost 20 years or so, but I still remember the song! HA

Question!

Maybe somebody can help me out here!
Im trying to help a friend to get an audition for the TV show "Saturday Night Live" and I was wondering if any of you had any information at all, that it would help me out very much!
Maybe someone out there might have connections with someone who works at NBC.
Please post comments for this answer.....
Thank you!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Happy music for my ears! YAY YELLE!

Congratttttsss!

I just found out my best friend is having a baby.And Iam so happy for her and her husband.....(happy tears in my eyes)
You guys will have the cutest baby ever! I cant wait to be "Auntie Friedia"!!!

Project in Vegas!

I think it was a Hudson jeans event....We all got in and danced our fancy shoes away! It was soo much fun! Great way to end a short trip!

Drugs+Sluts=Superheros

That was the whole concept of Louis Carreon. My friends a I went down to Hollywood last minute to check it out because of the one photo we saw of this one painting.It seemed to be very different from other things.... SO we went by and all the superhero's were there with signs saying "Save Hollywood" and "Worhtless Fame". That is what has become of the entertainment industry and its really sad. I hope it will change again.That famous people will actually be the ones with talent and not because of a video or you tube or a blog...
Anyways, it was interesting to see his paintings. You can tell he has a lot to say. So I picked two of my favorites..and the last picture is me going into the superhero circle...and I was attacked! I cant show you those pictures cus they are not a pretty sight!

Im lovin this right now...

First Dog Park!!

On this beautiful Saturday morning I took my two little critters to the dog park. I found one near my new spot and I have fallen in love with the idea of going every week! (If I can keep up with it!!hehe)
Here you can see Mel mingling with the other pups, and my baby Coco- she is still very shy and scared. I think she was overwhelmed with everything.She didnt make any new friends this time.But its my goal to make her more of a socialite!

Thank you!

Ian Sit...Thank you!
Yay!! Here it is! The Bud Light commercial! Yay!!

If you keep your eyes behind the "x-ray vision girl" then you can kinda see me...but Im dying to see the whole thing!!!!
Anybody out there know about this one??? ;)

Behind the Scenes!

After we finished the 3 day photo shoot. I took them all LA shopping. We started off with a fabulous lunch on top of Barney's (one of my favortie spots) and no out way there I had a pair of Red Raybans on.And everyone tried it on and loved the way it looked. So as an LA souvenir we went on a search for Red, White and Black Raybans. You be surprised! Alot of the stores I knew had them had sold out! But luckily we found them in Sak's. So after they got their own we all took a picture and called ourselves "The Rayban's" ( sorry for not being too original!) I had so much fun with the staff. We did such great team work! I hope to work with them again someday! Thank you guys for being GREAT!
