Only in the Fashion Industry

Bruce has been laughing at me these past two weeks because suddenly I'm glued to my cell phone and texting people like crazy. This morning when he left for work he handed me the phone so that I could "text beautiful women and invite them over to get undressed for [me]."  And, yeah, that's what's been happening around here.

I've met all of my models but one (she's coming this afternoon). They are lovely women in every way–they are all super nice and helpful. And they have no problem stripping down and changing clothes in front of me. Of course, it is their job. But I could never do it. I guess that's why I am not a model. That, and I'm short and overweight.

Anyway, it's been really cool to see my dresses come to life–there's a HUGE difference between a dress being worked on or hanging in the closet, and the same dress on a real live person. I have to say they look really fantastic!

Well, I must go work, work, work! The show is this Friday. Come, come, come!

Some sneak peeks:

What could this possibly be?

A scary monster?

but it's there.
