Here is my traffic for the year 2007, click the chart for big. The little spike was the draping demonstration, which had to be the post of the year. While it looks like my traffic has stayed pretty steady, the numbers suggest I have developed a few dozen more regular readers than 2006, a great blessing that makes me feel proud and peculiar. Thanks everyone.

- Five Men’s Fashion First Impressions (With Apologies to Guinea Pigs and Rats and the Readers Who Love Them)

What better way to ring in the last day of the year (a day not often rung in, but let’s go with it) than with the triumphant return of the Five Men?
And what better way to ring in the triumphant return of the Five Men (once you start ringing things in, it can be tough to stop) than with this terrifying, $300 lamb-fur satchel, first discussed by Ambika in this spot-on analysis?

- Bathroom Re-do

Seems rather lame that my last post of the year would be one about my bathroom. I feel rather odd posting pictures of it all–but I must admit that I enjoy seeing before and after pictures on other peoples’ blogs, so I guess it’s only fair to inflict my pictures on you. So here is the master bathroom as it was in all it’s carpeted nastiness:

We have less than 3 weeks left here, and I’m starting to feel a bit nostalgic about leaving this house. The next few blog entries will just be pictures of our home, so that I can look back here and remember. I’ve seen some pretty awesome looking rooms in blogland, and won’t pretend that my house can compete with any of them. Sometimes it’s good to remind myself that life (and blogging) is not a cool contest. OK. Here goes. This is a before picture

Not too long ago, I got lucky and won a door prize at the F-List Project Runway Canada Finale party - A $150 gift certificate from Zola Shoes. I went there today and picked up these lovely leather pumps. Predictably I chose matte black, round toes and low heels - I am a raven not a magpie. My first (and only) set of quality pumps - I look forward

Now that a Richard Prince print goes for $180,000 at Sotheby’s in London a Louis Vuitton bag with the artist print seems like steal at mere $2,720. In fact, if used GENTLY, it’ll probably cost $5000 the year after… hint hint

Such a great year. Lots of ups and downs. I tried a lot of new things and made my fair share of mistakes, and learned more than I can express in a post.
This year I became a fashion illustrator.  At the beginning of the year I had no idea what I was supposed to be. Setbacks in other ventures and a lack of confidence held me back. Finally in July, I recognized it and consciously chose it, embracing the uncertainty, interesting things started to happen. I finally feel like I am on the Earth living a life I love.

- My New Shoes

Per Roxie’s request, here’s a picture of my new shoes from the After-Christmas Sale at Saks Fifth Avenue. A pair of Gucci Kelly platform sandals, Chanel short boots (the tweed part can be taken off), Christian Louboutin Lapono’s, and Marni ballet flats. I wish I bought a pair of knee high boots but it was just too crazy to dig for them. What do you guys think? Did I do ok?

But Nicky Hilton looks like the hotter sister now… She even reminds me of Giselle–at a certain angle and in sunglasses, mind you, but still–this valley girl actually looks, dare we say, a little “fashion”…

“Mom-to-be Jessica Alba was spotted over the Christmas holiday with a rock on her left ring finger – and the rumors are true: She and boyfriend Cash Warren are engaged, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.
“I can confirm that they are engaged,” says publicist Brad Cafarelli.
Earlier this month, the couple announced to PEOPLE that they are expecting a baby. Alba, 26, has been dating Warren, 28, since the fall of 2004, after they met

- The Battle Zone - Saks Fifth Avenue, Beverly Hills
-
How was everyone’s after-Christmas sales experience this year? Though I’ve never been to Pamplona, Spain, I believe my after-Christmas shopping experience was very similiar to the Running of the Bulls event. This year was by far the biggest mob scene the I’ve ever encountered. Battling the women in Beverly Hills is no easy task anytime of the year, but the day after-Christmas is a whole other story.
It all began as a calm and sunny
