PEOPLE I AM ADMIRING/LOVING TONIGHT (AND WHY), A LIST:

+ Bill Cunningham --> because he's sweeter than babycakes. just watch Bill Cunningham NY

+ Anselm Keifer --> he was the highlight of another art gallery today. no image will ever convey the depth and size and gravity of his images. he's totally my guy.

+ Adele --> seriously, watch it again. she's so young to be this elegant ,

+ Ryan Gosling --> i listened to Dead Man's Bones today. 'nuff said.
