Happy 42nd!

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

I *heart* the view of the National Day Parade fireworks from the picture window of my summer apartment.

It’s been a good summer thus far, all things considered.

Fashion capitals…

One of the more impressive pieces of news I’ve read recently:

Reuters reported on a ranking of the top 25 fashion cities as done by a media group last month, and while the top ten cities include all the usual suspects–New York, Paris, Milan, London, Tokyo–ringing in at 10th place is… Singapore! 

Amazing.

But then again the number two city is Rome (?!), so who knows what statistical quirk helped put us above Berlin, Sydney and Barcelona.
