Decided to be productive today so I got dressed up and went to a few meetings. Mostly business, but I did get to stop and have lunch with Leila, she came up to the mountains so we can spend Christmas Eve together. I was able to get some inspiration for my fall collection from my surroundings up here, it's truly beautiful, so I have started sketching again.

I also had to sit through a meeting regarding my designing career, or lack there of. I was grilled for not releasing anything official in the past two years, but there always seems to be so many issues in the way of me releasing DbG. I want to wait until whatever I design is ready, I'd rather wait and release something I think is amazing than something I'm not sure about. 

Anyways, I'm back home now, typing this up as the snow continues to fall outside. I think I'll go make myself some hot chocolate or something, I deserve it for making it through the day, right?

Since it's getting close to Christmas time, I've made my way up to my Chalet for the winter, I plan on staying here until it's New Years Eve, maybe stay a little longer to do some skiing after that! 

I must admit though, I do get lonely every now and then... 

But I've been lucky enough to be close to my friends up here, Sam even has her own Chalet just a couple of minutes away, so we've been spending a lot of time together. I love Christmas, so I've been working like mad to get the place decorated, and I'll be cooking up some Christmas treats in a little while! Things are about to get super stressful, but for now I'll just relax in  the beauty all around me.

Back...

It's getting close to Christmas time again, and I've decided to kick start the season by bringing back my blog...I got myself an early Christmas gift and bought myself some new DvF clothes, I love them!

I did it! After a long flight I've finally arrived in my beach villa!  Its beautiful isn't it?!

After a day of my interior design skills (or lack there of!) I fixed it all up! What do you think?

I'm really looking forward to some relaxing times and just laying back and enjoying the sounds of the ocean and the sea breezes. This is going to be, amazing!

Its been awhile since I last posted on here...I'm trying to keep up with this blog and post at least once a day...

Anyways, so lately I've been working hard at getting my work done, I've signed a couple of deals for some upcoming projects that I'm excited about...I'll be working heavily with some of my best friends so that's always a plus! 

Today was a slow and tiring day, all the work I had to do seemed to just be lagging on forever. I finally was able to pull myself away and just sit down and update the blog. 

Hm...what else can I tell you guys...

I'm working on  a Diva by Gwen Spring photoshoot! I'm really excited, I'm working with my DbG team member, Jen, and I'm super pumped for that...

As I already said, I'm working on some other things that I can't really discuss yet....(thats always a good sign )

Oh! And in my personal life I just signed a DEAL to own a beach house on the shore, can you imagine? I'll be the official owner of my very own vacation home, I'm super excited. I just bought some plane tickets, I'm heading down there in the next couple of days!

I guess I'll talk to you guys later...I'll be tweeting constantly though! @diva6723

TWITPIC: Got my hair chopped off! Feel weird with short hair again :O

So today was the big day! After coordinating the fashion show myself, the charity successfully pulled off the fashion show! Despite all the stress I was under and the rushing at the last minute, I was very proud of how it came out.

Lots of designers were kind enough to send in some of their best pieces for the fashion show, and I myself got to model in it as well. The fashion show was a hit, and we raised quite a bit of money for the charity. Now I think I'll go and sleep for a day, I'm worn out from all this running around...tomorrow is a busy DbG day, so I'll need my rest.

I haven't updated the blog that much recently, and I'm sorry...the past few days I've been involved in some charity work, working around Dollywood and doing my best to help people in need. I encourage all of you to get out there and do anything, even the smallest bit helps!

I'm also excited because I just agreed to hosting and organizing a runway show for the charity to raise money! I'll be really busy with this and my upcoming photoshoot for DbG spring, plus my normal activities. Anyways, if I don't update this blog I'm constantly tweeting so follow me there if you'd like

TWITPIC: "Some of the best people in the world! We're going to have fun tonight!"

[photo: About to go out with my friends]

So I'm escaping my worries tonight and about to head out with some of my best friends ever. We're going to go out and have fun, cut loose and just enjoy ourselves! With all this work thats been piled on me, it'll be a nice relaxing time. 

Check out the awesomeness amazingness that is the new blog setup! A very very fabulous friend of mine, Samantha, shot the photo and helped me design the layout, I was real excited and extremely happy with how it turned out.

Speaking of Sam, I went out to lunch with her today again...it was basically a meeting where she gave me the finished photo and we went over a few things...I also got another modeling job! Well, its just for Sam's site, but thats a pretty big deal for me.

In other news ....

I'm really getting into tweeting, so I'm going to make that a constant thing on here! And I swear to you, I'll twitpic random things I see, tweet useless words, and possible bore you to death. But hey, isn't that what twitters for? Oh, I'll post some tweets on here, but if you want constant updates, click HERE! and it'll take you to my twitter page!

Today I was thinking, what else do I want to do in my life? What other goal do I want to achieve and work for?And finally it hit me. I'm officially announcing my modeling career...modeling is one of my passions, so I'm excited to try to get this started! I'll be looking for job offers and setting up a portfolio soon....I'll post it online so everyone can see that later.

[photo: During my shopping spree]

Yesterday I got my paycheck, finally! So after I took it to the bank I decided to treat myself for working so hard  in my design studio, and went on a shopping spree. I couldn't find some of the old archived clothes I desperately wish I could put into my closet...

I've made a small wishlist for SOME of the clothes I want, its right here...I also would love any DvF, Cavalli...pretty much any of those you can imagine! I hope I can find some soon. 

But for now I'll enjoy what I bought and what I have already...the month of May is lining up to be a busy one for me! 

Hopefully I'll have time to blog about it.

I've been hard at work for the past couple of days, sorry I haven't been keeping this blog too updated! I've been busy working on something for Reckless, and I've also been working on creating clothes for my Spring line.
Meanwhile, I'm at a photoshoot right now, my friend, Sam, is the photographer and she's amazing. Once again I'll post up the finished picture! It seems as if I've been at a photoshoot set quite a lot recently, but I love it, I thrive off of things like this!

[photo: At the party, wearing some of my favorite heels EVER]

Went to party a friend of mine was hosting today, it was pretty fun, I adore dressing up for parties. The DJ played amazing music all night long so I mostly danced.  I think I'll keep on with this partying thing, just because its so fun! I'm thinking about going to another one in the next couple of days, but we'll see how much work I need to get done. 

DbG is really getting me down, but I've decided to ignore the problems and the wait and just push on, I'm already pinning down outfits for the Spring line, I'm switching it up instead of going with the Fashion Week trend, I'll actually showcase my Spring line in the spring I think. I might have my team work up a mini summer line? I'm not sure about that though. 

I think I've blabbed too much now, I'm gonna go take some meds and slip into bed. 

[photos: Out in town, after my hair appointment]

So, today I went out on the town, I had a hair appointment...I got my hair stylist to dye my hair a couple shades lighter blonde, and I put in some extensions...I personally love it, I've always liked having long hair. Went out to lunch with a friend, now, back to my office for a late night design session.

As promised here's the completed ad! After five long hours of  pictures and editing, we finished it. I'm really proud of how it turned out, and I'm so happy with how the dress looks. Its up on the official site for the line as well! Click!

Ugh....I'm awake way too early for my taste, running off coffee today! I have to go to the Reckless offices and finish up somethings there...I'm really excited about the magazine release, Ashy is really putting together an amazing issue. Oh! And I have a Diva by Gwen promo ad shoot later on today, I'll be modeling a dress from the collection, and we'll use the photo for an ad campaign...can't wait! I'll post the finish picture later today.

Today was beautiful, you could really feel the oncoming summer, so I took a trip to a local park to hang out with some of my best friends. We had lots of fun, and it really got my mind off some of the stress that's in my life right now! Overall today has been a good day...not looking forward the work that lies ahead of me. I think I'll try to work on my suite tomorrow...
