Boulder, Day 2

This is where I spent most of yesterday: in one of the most beautiful places on the planet, Chatauqua Park. You know, in college I had a roommate who had grown up right in this part of Boulder, and was always going on and on about how it was the best place in the world, and everyone should live there, and I didn't really get it...

But now I do. It's that beautiful. And the people are friendly, and everyone's outdoorsy, and the streets are clean, and the restaurants (from what I've seen) are great, and the vintage shopping appears fairly spectacular (I'll do more research on this point later on today), and et cetera et cetera. A+ city.

This photograph is much less weird than it appears: that's me posing with my makeup artist, Cindy, while our sound guy adjusts my mic. I can't explain why I'm holding that stick.

Boulder, Day 1: Zig-Zag Scarves & Zombies, For Real

I've been in Boulder for about thirty hours now, and I've only ventured about ten feet from the front door of our hotel.

Don't worry, I understand that Colorado is a fantastic place and I'm sure I'll head out adventuring at some point later today (...I hear we're shooting on a mountain somewhere?)...but we've been busy running around doing lots and lots (and lots) of fall/holiday fashion segments for Better TV, so there hasn't been time for a whole lot else. (The segments, like the ones I shot in Miami, feature Crocs, which now makes things like snowboots and cold weather-appropriate slip-ons and all sorts of other wintry styles - and yes, I was surprised too. Click here for some more behind-the-scenes shots on their FB page.)

I loved the look that the makeup artist created for me - it's a bit softer than what I usually do, with powder liner rather than liquid and warm, rosy blush. The lipstick - a mix of Sue Devitt Lip Intensifier Pencil in Kirakira and Clinique Almost Lipstick in Luscious Honey - is my own, and my favorite shade at the moment. I'm sorta over the red for the time being, and am enjoying looking a little more natural.

Off To Colorado: In My Carry-On

I'm headed to Colorado for the week with Better TV, filming a bunch of segments on fall/holiday fashion (yes, already). This trip has presented a bit of a packing conundrum, because it's apparently going to fluctuate between sixty degrees and a blizzard during the five days that I'll be there. Oh yes, and I'm bringing wardrobe for five different segments, plus a couple of additional segments that we may or may not film...but at this point aren't exactly certain what said segments might entail.

Which makes them difficult to pack for.

Basically, I'm bringing All The Things.

But here's what I'm bringing in my carry-on (that's an Isabella Fiore satchel).

What Is Foresight?

Foresight is having a two-hour layover in Charlotte, spotting a Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, and realizing that there is a really excellent chance that sometime around 11PM that evening, upon returning from a fairly debauched dinner at a Richmond brasserie, you will be thrilled to discover a chocolate- and nut-covered apple in your hotel room.
