While making out with Bruno Mars last night, it hit me, I have an obsession with food. I turned to Bruno Starry Eyes Mars, my name for him, and stared straight into his eyes and said, "Baby, I'm hungry". Bruno eased my famish body and said, "Don't worry, Coco, our buddy, Thomas Keller, is in the kitchen now preparing a feast for us". Life at that moment was complete; I had Bruno in my arms and I was about to have Keller in my tummy...

Ever since I was a little girl, I liked to have things on my head. Whether it be a hat, a scarf or a very large, obnoxious bow- you could sign me up. My newest obsession happens to be the latter and I just can't seem to stop wearing them. I recently wondered about how my clients would feel with me showing up to meetings wearing a giant black bow on the side, or the top, of my head, paired back to a properly tailored and incredibly modern Armani suit...

I have Peter Pan Syndrome. It's official.
I grew up wanting to be an adult for as long as I can remember. I have always been a pretty bloodthirsty and competitive individual and truthfully, not much has changed over the years. I took the most rigorous classes when I was in school and I strived to produce the most outstanding results. I was always the overachiever.

Never before have we seen a culture that is so interested in creation. I find it to be completely fascinating. Growing up with technology at the forefront of my education, I have been immersed since the beginning days of dial-up internet when online shopping was something that most retailers never could have imagined would actually take shape...

Fendi was founded in 1925 by Adele and Edoardo Fendi and has been designed by the one and only Karl Lagerfeld since 1965. I'm not quite sure of the phrase that would represent Sir Lagerfeld with as much credit as he deserves, except that he is someone incubated with genius.

Someone recently told me that I am, "living a beautiful story". What does this even mean? I feel like this is the kind of phrase that always seems to be said when the person doesn't really know anything about you and they assume everything they see at your exterior layer to be true, yet they know nothing about you as a human, your story in life or your mission to the world...

A Whiter Shade Of Pale
There's a part of me that wants to ditch all my colorful clothes and only wear white and shades of beige for the rest of the summer. Considering that Autumn is around the corner, perhaps I will try this experiment...
