Living the high life

I am enjoying the forth day of my luxury tour of China, compliments of my incredibly generous great uncle....
I arrived at my hotel in Beijing just now, and was directed to the elevator - "Just to your right, between the Chanel store and Harry Winston's."
Also present are Louis Vuitton and Hermes. Designer beauty prodocts in the bathroom and Evian and champagne in the mini-fridge. I spent my first morning in Hong Kong in a plush bathrobe moving from the pool to the hot tub, then a hot bath, and after slathering myself in every cream, lotion, toner, herbal mist, etc, available; drinking tea and eating asian pears and exploring the vast complimentary contents of my hotel room while looking out over hong kong bay and it's incredible skyline. I have the distinct feeling I will never live quite like this again, and I am indulging as much as possible.
As far as tutorials go, I am afraid that a very necessary cord has been left at home ---so no pictures can be downloaded into my computer. I have a lot of sketches drawn up but they will have to wait. On a happy note, fashion week is a mere 3 days away (but I am in China, which is a day ahead) and I am so excited to see our pieces in the flesh. I'll post them as they are put up on style.com. I'm hoping that most of them made it throught the rigorous pre-show editing process.

As tropical storm Hannah makes land fall I can't help but think of you. Today on the radio they were interviewing some kind of specialist. The conversation went something like this.

A: "What do you think of Hannah?"
b: "Feisty, very feisty.
"I think there's a good chance that people won't
take her seriously.
"That could be dangerous."


I was like 'Don't I know it'!
It makes me happy that you are having such a good time. I can't wait to see your pictures, china, runway, and otherwise.
