Spotted: Lisa Rinna

Driving down Beverly on my way out of Hollywood I saw Lisa Rinna coming out of the Jewish grocery store. I couldn't get my camera phone out fast enough to actually catch an image of her, but that is her getting into the car. 

She looked good. Not super hot, but very attractive and her lips look pretty good in real life, haha.

Spotted: Helena Christensen

Shane & Nikki took me to lunch at the cafe in American Rag in 3rd today, so delicious. We sat on the sidewalk and had a really nice time catching up on life and the wedding. When we get up to go I noticed Helena Christensen sitting a few tables down from us. Awesome!! Her eyes are amazing, but she was disappointingly leathery... must be all the tanning and smoking... 

I love seeing famous people. Especially when they are fashion peeps. Thanks West Hollywood and Shane & Nikki!

The KGB Took My Baby Away

Ok so weirdest thing... we were wrapping up our photo mission down in the arts district (read: hungry and running low on film) standing on the corner in this totally desserted part of town deciding where to get lunch and how to hook back up with our mate from foggy London- town when what drives by? A freaking motorcade of unmarked vehicles, cop cars, motorcycle police and KGB smartcars. Several of them. What.

Total rookie move my Rebel was in my bag and I'm franticly exiting out of my text message on my Blcakberry to get the camera... this is all I have to show for it... The other jerks with film cameras were reloading. It's like we were caught with our pants down! Blowing it!!

Anyway, this is all the proof we have of the very odd, very quick, very...? event.

Let the conspiracy theories begin!

Spotted: Danny Masterson aka Steven Hyde

Danny Masterson owns a rad boutique down the street from my place called Confederacy. It is definitely the best store I have seen in LA so far... and I have seen my fair share. 

Anyway, we stopped in today after chowing down in some Pinkberry. They are having a Rebecca Minkoff sample sale, so it was pretty busy. I looked around for Danny... Didn't see him. 

We went into the other building (menswear/ bags/ shoes/ sample sale) and there he was!! Woo! Exciting! I walked past him (he was between me and the shoes!) and he said hello and told me he likes my hair. Yes!

Then I texted my mom.

Spotted: David Spade

I finally saw someone famous at The Grove. Ashley and I were buying tickets to see Twilight (more on that later... maybe) and Jessica says, "Don't look now, but David Spade is right behind you." So of course I turned around!

He's really short... and look like... David Spade. 

I just love seeing celebrities... even fallen stars... We'll always have Tommy Boy, David. 

Thanks, LA!

Spotted: Maeby Fünke

Ok, her real name is Alia Shawkat, but I would like to think I ran into Maeby.

Jimi and I walked down to Intelligentsia after washing my car yesterday afternoon to get some delicious iced coffee. We were standing out front after drinking said coffee deciding where to get food when some girl walkes out. We sort of stated at each other as people in LA typiclly do (you know, checking to see if you're "somebody") it was kind of an awkward stare cause she was like 10 inches shorter than me and the stare lasted about a second to long. The moment the look was broken, she was behind me and I went "OMG! Maeby Fünke!!" (To which Jimi said, "Who?" Sad.)

Then I called everyone I know.

Come on, I had to!

Casey + Mandy = Best Friends Forever

So our showroom reps Mblem by Mandy Moore... So we all knew we would eventually meet her.

Se came in this week, looking a little tired (she had been with DJ AM in Georga or something)... I got nervous as she walked in thinking "OMG, OMG, play it cool, play it cool..."

Thankfully, I succeeded. She and her manager, John, introduced themselves to all of us individually (more than most of the designers do when they come in!). She was so nice!! I, like, love her even more now! She was friendly and you could tell she was really just a nice person. She didn't act like a famous actress/singer at all.

Mandy is so normal! She wasn't wearing much makeup and is build about like me. Same height, same size. Sweet. BFF's for sure.

I look forward to seeing her again!




(I loved her hair short!)

Spotted: Shane West at Ratatat

Ok, so I am way behing on my blogging... I'm a busy girl.

September 9, 2008: Henry Fonda Theater

We saw Shane West hanging out on the balcony (about 10 feet from our seats) with a friend. He didn't look that great, but we'll always have A Walk to Remember.

The show was awesome, the security there not so much. Tyrants. All of them.... but that is a whole other story.
