You gave me the best mix tape that I have and even all the bad songs ain't so bad.

OhMYGOD. SO I ALMOST DIED. I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING. YEAH. TRUE STORY.

...I removed my hand from the caps. So a while back, while getting back from a meeting for my school editorial board with 3 friends, an auto rickshaw slammed into our car on the side I was sitting on and the glass shattered and everything and the rickshaw totalled :| SCARY STUFF. Then, this being India and all, a crowd of about 150 (I kid, I kid) landed up alongwith the police and it was time to freak the fuck out. The driver just stood around, looking helpless and we were smack in the center of the street with the auto driver all bloody and this passenger making a huge scene over a few cuts. Anyway, we left largely unscathed (I have a tiny bruise for posterity) and then ate cookies.

So that was that.

Anywho.

Ever since they hit the scene, I remember having a love/hate relationship with bandage-anything. I got increasingly bored with the Herve Leger black numbers every Kim Kardashian and Mandy Moore was donning and so I gave up on my bandage fantasy. A few months back, I came across Pleasure Doing Business via my personal shopping mecca, Shopbop. And I knew FREAKIN ecstasy. Let me tell you, it is rarely that I use this sentence from this total BS English chapter we did last year so this really does means something.  Their website has a lookbook consisting of a melange of bright hued skirts, accentuating all the right parts of your body. Their infamous five band skirt was literally calling out my name. I could hear it chanting from it's showroom in downtown LA. 

And despite the fact that the likes of Kristin Cavallari and her posse of Hollywood rugrats have been snapped wearing their pieces, so has Mary Kate Olsen, so I think that satiates my need for coolness associated with the skirt. Rihanna and Heidi Klum have been snapped wearing the skirt in the horizontal striped version, as well. Basically, it's a very high-profile collection that has been, as Intermix claims, been spotted on everyone who's anyone.

Anyhow, the fabulous folks over at PDB generously sent over two gorgeous, decadent skirts; one in tangerine and the other in a pale lapis.

(Wearing: Pleasure Doing Business SS tangerine skirt, 1986 sheer tank with cage imprints, black vintage beaded bracelet, Charles and Keith basic black pumps with a sculpted heel, 1986 oversize sunglasses in white) 

I have a lot to say about this skirt as well and that's coming soon! Oh, and you can just meander over to their website to maybe snag yourself a skirt, as well?

Also, I heart these sunglasses. They're massive and have a BIGASS viewing circumference. 

Oh, and on another note, I just started my internship at the Communication Council, a fashion PR agency in New Delhi, India. Yesterday was my first day and the agency was working on a Tag Heuer event (the label was celebrating hitting 150 years). I basically got a first hand look at all the work going behind something of that sort, almost as informative as Kell on Earth! I'm going to try and get in a few shots of the space soon. The people were super nice and it almost makes up for having to get up at the crack of dawn in the middle of summer. Posting pics up of the Zara India launch soon!
