Hello, I'm in Spain for 5 days. Madrid untill tomorrow and then I go to Asturias, somewhere in the North of Spain for a photo shoot. I'm gonna try to post something everyday;) Back in Madrid on Tuesday evening and in Paris from Thursday for the Men's shows. I'll post these next days my dates about my Summer Euro Tour. And now, here we go with Madrid's sunshines...

FACE HUNTER ON NYLON TV
Nylon TV has made a short video about "the French rock scene" and for some reasons they included me in the show. Funny...
Nylon says: "It's the first time French kids understood that they can do rock and roll." NYLON TV discovers a burgeoning French rock scene with bands Nelson and Brooklyn, American supermodel in Paris, Darla Baker, takes up shopping, and we get some face time with international shutterbug the facehunter himself."

The Preppy Harbor Wedding
So I was excited to get Katy�s e-mail request for a storyboard for her May 2008 wedding in Charlestown, MA here.
So Katy wants blue and green as her colors (as evidenced by the tie fabric featured) and she wants a casual, beachy fun celebration. Now, you know I�m not a huge fan of shells, so my big ah ha on this wedding was love knots. And rope, since they are getting married near the boat slip by the water. I know it sounds crazy, but it led the inspiration for this board. You�ll see what I mean - here goes �
The bride�s dress and bridesmaids are JCrew. Katy has picked out a gorgeous gown, but I don�t want to ruin it for her husband to be, so we�ll go with this one. The guys will wear blue sport coats and kakis with the green and blue ties aforementioned.
The invites are Crane. They are classic navy and white with a contemporary twist. Katy was thinking of doing Christmas save the dates, so I found this announcement from Tiny Prints that could easily be converted to a blue and green holiday themed save-the date.
The flowers are cream hydrangeas with a touch of green berries. Super cute way to bring the green accent color in.
The flowers on the pew are cream hydrangeas tied up with rope. Katy�s getting married outside, but this would still work on her outdoor chairs. I love this outdoor real wedding on the knot and I love the inexpensive paper parasols, they add so much ummph to the ceremony. And get this - Katy�s mom is going to custom make navy toile table cloths. She�ll alternate them every other with navy tablecloths.
And now, the �rope theme� begins �
For table arrangements, take old cylinder vases and wrap with a small round rope. Just super glue to the vase and have your florist fill with cream hydrangeas.
For favors, try koozies (I do love me some koozies) in navy and green with a simple love knot on the front (see here) and Katy and The Man Tie the Knot with the date. You can echo this saying on custom napkins for the bar!
For groomsmen, do knot cufflinks and do similar earrings for the bridesmaids. Echo the knot on the programs and you�ve got yourself a themed affair!
