Back in NY…but leave in a few days for MONTREAL (more info on that coming soon…if you can’t wait…just check out the “Events” section on the NYC website)!!  Had soo much fun with all my Cali LOVES!!  I miss you already!!  Especially my BFF Jenny!!  Soo many crazy times this weekend!!!  There should be MORE fun photos…but my camera battery died…luckily Rony’s Photobooth took some at the Fuck Yeah Fest afterparty at the  super random warehouse in LA…i’ll post once he posts them : )   Here’s me loving Jenny <3

Came home late last night to a super sweet house FULL of Chihuahua’s!  aka the BEST way to come home!!  They all missed me so much…Muffin (the small brown Chi) would not leave me alone…and when I put her in bed to go to sleep…she did the funniest thing EVER!!

…she hid inside my pillowcase underneath my pillow….toooooooo cute!!!@@@

….where’s Muffin, says Pom Pom and Duchess…

…Pom Pom found her…

…we take her out…so what does she do?  …goes back in….ADORABLE!!

…back to work…picked up samples last night on the way home from the airport…every single one needs to be fixed and altered…so it’s going to be a LATE night.  Drop more samples off tomorrow…fingers crossed I fix everything and this is the last grouping of samples for the new collection…lookbook shoot is in a week-ish…TOO MUCH to do…so… au revoir (goodbye in french)

Today we did a fun summer themed shoot at my house.  I know…summer is almost over…but i’m in denial!!!  Winter just sucks…so i’m dreading snow, ice, BLAH!!  Will post the AWESOME backstage pics from the shoot tomorrow…but for right now…enjoy these DELECTABLE photos of the puppies playing with my newest toy!!!

My friend emailed me maybe 2 months ago….the email subject was “YOU NEED THIS”…or something like that…lol.  I check it out…and she was correct-a-mundo!  I NEEDED this!!  So Australian designer, Not Today, and I made a trade…she got a killer dress…and I got the COOLEST pillow EVER!!!!  The puppies already love it…sure you will too!

Meet my BURGER PILLOW….of wonderful-ness

(above: tomato’s lettuce, and a Duchess.   below: Muffin says to Pippy “Get OFF my buns!!!”)

RIP Shrimpy.  Mommy loves you!!

I’m sure everyone is wondering….what ever happened to the little puppy that was born a few weeks ago?  Well…GREAT NEWS…she’s still doing well and today is actually her 3 week old BIRTHDAY!!  Been sooo busy on Warped Tour I haven’t had time to post about her.   Before we left for Canada…something amazing happened!!  I met the MOST AMAZING woman!!  She’s a veterinary nurse and her mother is a nurse (pediatrics).  They both LOVE animals…and when I took Panda Worm for her surgery consult…Nicole (that’s the MOST AMAZING persons name) tried showing me how to tube feed the pup.  If you do it the wrong way you could kill the puppy…and I couldn’t do it…so I was FREAKING out!!  Nicole was sooo AMAZING that she offered to take puppy so she can be tube fed and get big enough for her surgery.  I cannot believe how AMAZING people can be!!!!  Sorry if I keep saying “amazing”…but I just can’t…lol.  Panda Worm is now named Shrimpy….she is just so little and curls up like a shrimp…it’s funny and cute and I think it suits her.  So Shrimpy is doing well…and below are photos of her from a few days ago when she opened both her eyes for the first time!!  LOVE HER!! Happy 3 week old Birthday Shrimpy!!! For her 1 month old birthday I’m planning a celebration…in real life…and online with a FUN FUN FUN SALE!! Keep a look out…and until them…pray for this little fighter!! She’s like Tinkerbell in Peter Pan…if you believe in her she will live : )

Little Baby PANDA WORM….

…b/c she’s cute and looks like a Panda

…but squirms around like a Worm…lol

Panda Worm is now almost 4 days old!!! Unbelievable!  I haven’t posted for a while b/c it has NOT been easy!  Little baby wants to suck from her mommy…but she didn’t seem like she was getting enough.  So…yesterday I took her to the vet.  I was very concerned since she was no longer a pink color…but more of a blue tinge to her.  My biggest fear was made true yesterday.  Panda Worm has a cleft palate.  This basically means she has a hole in the top of her mouth and it makes it so she cannot suckle from her mom or a bottle (the mouth cannot create the pressure needed b/c of the hole).  This could be life threatening and she will more than likely need a surgery…but not until she is at least 4 weeks old.  She is a LIFE…and I cannot give up on her…and hope you WILL NOT too!!  Some people would put her down…but I want to give her every shot I can…even if it’s expensive and/or time consuming.  So..every 2 hours I have to feed her.  YES…every 2 hours.  And for the next 4 weeks!!!  Or it could be more…but I will do it…b/c she is a life and I believe in her and hope she can make it through.  So if you pray…please pray for our little Panda Worm..and that she makes it through this!!!  No sleep for me…but I think it’s worth it!!

Below are photos of PW (before I found out she can’t suckle) on a bottle…at 48hour or less old…

Mommy and baby  ….aww!!  <3

She is sooo sweet and little…weighs less than 4 ounces!!!@@@  She is maybe 36 hours old below

And Muffin didn’t want to not be included in all of this.  Panda Worms aunt Muffin below…she was sleeping with her tongue hanging all the way out..was way too funny not to take a pic!

And Panda Worm after we found out she can only live if I give her a syringe of food every 2 hours…she is too adorable!!

Have you ever seen the movie Donnie Darko?  It’s crazy, amazing, and FUCKED UP all at the same time!  Well that’s what my yesterday was like!  It doesn’t feel real…it may have been a dream.  But there’s no rabbit telling me the world is going to end…or a Sparkle Motion dance team…either way….Yesterday was the CRAZIEST DAY I EVER HAD!!!  EVER!!!

The day started normal though.  If you did not know…I rescued a Chihuahua 2 weeks ago named Duchess.  She’s super sweet and lovable.  If you also don’t know…I already have TWO!  lol  I wanted to welcome Duchess to the family and like any crazy Chihuahua mommy I wanted to get her a special dress so we could take photos of her with her new brother and sister.  We take Duchess, Pippy, and Muffin to this store that sells stunning dog clothes from Japan.  Duchess is “leaking”…we just think she is nervous to go out…I know gross…but what do I know.   And a little pee never hurt anyone.  I could give a shit…lol…or a pee I guess.  We are on our way home and my mom (who is with me) gets a call from her groomer saying her dogs (she has 2 Maltese) are ready for pick up.  We are on our way to the groomer now.  Duchess will not sit in my lap with the other 2 dogs.  She is all over the place so I put a towel on the floor below my feet and put her there.  I keep checking to make sure she’s ok.  With this…what do I see….MOST FUCKED UP SHIT EVER!!@@@@!!!@!!@@!

I can’t even make this shit up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Puppy feet are coming out of her!@@@@@@@@@@@@!!!@@@@@!!@!@!@!  Let’s back this up a little.  The girl I rescued Duchess from said she was fixed…so you can imagine the EXTREME SHOCK when I see she has legs hanging out of her.  These are taken on the car ride….once I see the legs coming out I FREAK!!@@@  We call the vet…luckily we are not far away.  MOST FUCKED UP SHIT I EVER HAD TO DO!!@@@  I literally!!! delivered a puppy!!  Below are the ACTUAL photos of me delivering the puppy…photos taken by my mom with her phone on the way to the vet.

I deliver the puppy and we pull up the vet a minute or so later.  The puppy is not breathing and her tongue is blue/purple. The birth was FUCKED UP!!  The mom eats the afterbirth/umbilical cord….SOOOO fucked up!!  I would have thrown up….but I was busy pulling a sausage sack off the puppy…also FUCKED UP!!!  I run inside the vet with the puppy…they know I’m coming…I’m screaming “she’s not breathing!!@@@” .  They take the puppy…I then bring Duchess inside.  We see the vet…they take X-rays to see if anymore pups are inside.  Mommy is doing well…but we don’t know yet about puppy.  No more pups inside…THANK GOD!!  Remember…I had NO CLUE she was pregnant…and she DIDN’T LOOK PREGNANT!!  Finally they bring the pup in.  She’s breathing and doing well. Here’s new mommy and puppy when they are re-united.

Me trying to bottle feed baby.  She looks like a itty bitty Panda baby!!@ Right…so for now her name will be PANDA WORM (she worms around a lot)…until I make up her real name.

My aunts dog had puppies under a year ago…so she luckily brought over the whelping bed…and below is mommy and Panda Worm loving each other….awww

And here’s Panda Worm eating…4 hours old!!@@@@

I’m STILL IN SHOCK!!  Did this REALLY just happen!!@@@@@????????  I rescued ONE dog…and now I have 4!!!@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@!!!@@@!@!  lolool

FYI all plans our out the window right now.  I know the email blast that went out yesterday am and the website said we would be at the Hester Street Fair tomorrow…we will not be anymore since this MAJOR curve ball was thrown our way!!   NYC @ Warped Tour is still on…but any NY dates are on hold for the next week++++.  Will keep everyone updated with LOTS of fun photos and videos!!  If you asked me 24 hours ago…if this would be my day…I would NEVER have believed you!!@@@!@!  I guess God likes to surprise you….and WHAT A SURPRISE!!!
