New-York: Manhattan Mood

I need “washed-out” pictures like in the seventies to express my NY state of mind. Like old used jeans. My NY, my inseparable town. Where I’ve always come back. Here some faded pictures of my first NY mood. I could tell you about Meatpacking District, Pastis, Mercer and other considerate to be essential for the « fashion » planet. The effervescence of fashion shows. But I’m trendsetting for accessories and I have to hunt somewhere else, bargain-hunt in flea market too… And don’t know why, I feel like Bob the Sponge !

New York: a hotel with a Central Park view

New York, trendsetting : I didn’t choice the hotel, The Hemsley Park Lane. Great Tarantino or Scorsese corridor for pictures, not my taste in real life.

The room. Good surprise: wow what an amazing panoramic view of Central Park! Light of the ending day.

    

Yes, the room: big and comfortable.

  

Except the ab fab view, space and location, this hotel is pretty impersonal and misses cachet.

DJ Chicken Playlist

Back from my L.A city guide (previous posts), difficult to start the most fashionable month of this really busy  autumn. I felt the huge need of music, a different music than the three insipid songs of the moment. So I asked my Bollywood friend Mr. Chicken Tandoori aka DJ Chicken to cook spicy a surprising but not boring playlist for Mademoiselle Le K. And the result is simply brilliant. Ultra rock, a bit trash and smart, sometimes eighties and somtimes groovy and sometimes totally freaky ! Narrative music. From the first listening, two pearls: Diskonoise (Los Chicros) and Rich Girls (The Virgins), I love.

Mademoiselle Le K, singing, swinging, remixing and directing the making of…

Thai Elvis, the special guest (we’ve still waited for his answer). Glen, magic keyboards and electro composer. It just misses our sexiest partner, Al K., the guitar hero who’s already had an ego trip and hates pictures.
