Loving your green blazer, I have a similar one and it's one of my very fave things to wear right now.

Wow -- lucky girl! :) Any chance of CK expanding into China?! There's a strong possibility that we will be there for a couple of years; would be fab to have a CKU in Beijing! :)

P.S. Still no solution to the e-mail woes -- guess I'll have to just read the zine on-line.

And don't forget....
okay desu! (It is ok, in Japanese)

This gave meaning to me this week, especially when I here about not getting on a design team. Creating is more than shraing with others.. it is a form of REcreation.
