however much time I have from now is not up to me, which is something I really give a fuck about people giving a fuck about... the only two things that really matter- you can't fucking buy.

1) time
2) love

If you have either- fucking hold it closer to your chest than your last breath to live. you can't have it once it's lost. I remember with my mom. Hopefully if at least one- just one person calls their brother- mother- girlfriend- boyfriend I don't care whom... And tells them they love them- or that they appreciate the time someone they love has taken... I'm set- I did exactly what this intent was for... and Nana- the woman whom gave my my first piece of Chanel and has allowed me be the dancer dreamer and the little girl who wants to find the beauty in everything in a world filled with such anger and pain- thank you: thank you for loving me for who I am- and accepting whom I will never be...

Hopeless romantics beware- a boy may show up at your door with the candle lit when you least expect it... Xx bella

...the.twenty.seven.club...

let's go back 10 years... I can't believe I can say that- that's pretty rad. But at 16- I wasn't supposed to see my 18th birthday... Straightening out my wild ways- with a lot of tough love- and oh too much to explain!! I made it to 18. I fell again- Jazzie you won't see your 21st if you keep fucking off. I stopped my "fucking off" officially at 19- the snow white fairytale chapter of that part of my life finally ended- and for good. Really- coke is so not a good look on anyone. I swear- been there done that- everyone yaps about Runyon and brunch bullshit as they talk with their dry mouths a million miles a minute... Super lame. Anyways- I beat the odds- and am now in the twenty seven club. I fucking am loving this age so hard because of these incredible- inspiring- talented- makes your knees shake artists are forever in the club... Sid. Kurt. Jimi. Janis. Basquiat.... The list- you can do yourself with a quick google I'm sure... What I love about turning 27 this year is that my line, my baby- ...the.PERFECT... is launching. Email: thejazziebella@gmail.com for whatever you want to know- hate- love- bitch- moan- my kids (they're so fucking good- I so mean it when I say took me 11 years to find some bitches as fierce as Emo and Dine) my researching emo kid and my assassin Dine. They kill it- and will kick my ass to enjoy my year in the club... But I can say they won't let me be a member forever... But if I died in some freak art accident (Phil Holland you can easily say I'm the queen of the suicide mission photo shoots because when I hear oh Jazzie we can't get up there- I climb like a little fashion ninja monkey up and down all over to get the shots I want) but as I was saying- if I stayed in the club- I would so be ok with it because you all get to see ...the.PERFECT... Love it. Hate it. It's all ok with me- really for each person that's into my art- there are 25 for each one that don't I'm sure. And mama suze you taught me the best advice a few years ago- "Minute- just let it roll off your back"... And I do- I'm a Pisces after all- we just go with the flow and dance to the music in our heads full of dreams... I love that. I embrace that- and I can't stand the thought of a world without art. It's why my million miles a minute mind starts waving my hands wildly as I even talk about an idea- a concept- when I see the fucking picture in my head that I need to make real. Everyday I just breathe. But the days I live- is why I keep breathing...

...bravins.revenge...

I met him a few months ago he was djing the opening of Sayers I think. My wife Brett introduced us... I liked his set. It was rad- and his dimples. Those too.
We talk- he's pretty quiet, so I guess I talk- but anyway, he tells me he has his band he must leave Jazzieland to go play with. I was confused until he clarified... oh, he's a rad dj- and his band is She Wants Revenge. Ok- got it... he does some great art I'm thinking. I like it.
Then he shows me the music video he directed for their new album... His game steps up even higher... I'm now impressed...
He shoots me with less than one hours notice after recording all night for Elle Japan magazine at 1 a.m...
Long story short... Many do art- but there are very very few artists... Artists- we're weird. I get it. It's drilled into my head pretty much everyday. But we go there. We're not scared to be weird to show you the pictures in our head or the sound in our minds- we are vulnerable because we are the innovators that are the lions... Not the lambs...
He's the presidents DJ. And I'm the princess of Saudi Arabia's stylist... And I mean it... I love it when people impress me... And he does. I love that.
Thank you Adam Michael Bravin, you're an incredibly talented artist... and I totally have a school yard crush on you too. It's really frustrating and annoying... The photos are beautiful and he captured me in a way that made me feel safe. Can't explain it- but he just gets it... Rare to find those who do... Xx bella

follow him on twitter: djadam12 if you're in the LA area- he really kills his sets. You'll dance your pants off- I promise

...spike.stunners...

My garb is my art... people may just throw things on everyday and go about their boring monotonous life... But every morning I wake up and I get out of the shower- and look at the wardrobe as what canvas am I feeling like painting today. Recently my dark lip obsession has gone to the darkest shade of plum I could find... The dark, gothic, fetishistic, industrial- post apocalyptic meets abandoned mental hospital with antique medical equipment kick I am on may be too dark for some- but fuck off and watch lambs... You will all follow. You're welcome and here's a glimpse into t dark heart... Xx bella

...spring.fling...

No- not with a boy... with the new collections I was playing with all day yesterday. Jbrand's new take on a sexy pair of skinnys? Leather- lambs leather- soft, supple- amazing- and just what I've been craving. Their color way was what I want for "spring"- ok let's be honest... I am not a sunshine and bubble gum kind of girl- so to my delight the dark mood other designers were feeling was a celebration of excitement in my dark heart... Isabel Marant meant it with her camel leather moto, Philip Lim's ethereal silk chiffon maxi is a piece Big P will be wearing all around Rodeo this summer (ya- people get more excited that I style trash mag celebs than my the Princess of Saudi Arabia and I can't understand why- but ::shrugging:: - to each their own I guess- right?) either way- here's a little flip book of some spring flings you need to get into. Margiela's off white asymmetrical Mongolian lamb fur caplet was another stunner. But my hands down win of the day? The givenchy ostrich feather jacket that I literally was speechless about. Seriously- I was... Xx bella

...I fell in love on Sunday...

While shopping with my dad at Barney's- (I.e home- seriously I had my sweet 16 there up on green grass, Alison third floor is my Jew mama she looks out for me and constantly tells me she's worried Henry first floor my glam gubby) anyways... Yes- I fell in love with THIS piece- this stunning- incredible- it moves like air- I fucking swear this Givenchy piece... makes me speechless and I had the most intense fashgasm... My birthday is February 26th and I mean it... whomever has the desire to make my heart burst with joy- and scream like hell on the day I enter THE 27 CLUB- this jacket- Jack on the third floor is holding it hostage... If I have a secret admirer- I will be wearing this piece all around town until I fall down. ::sigh:: oh art- how I love you so!

...Glamhouse...

Had an amazing time at the Glamhouse event Thursday night! Brought along with me my talented and amazing Little Red, and my kids Emo (Diana Graffius) and Dine my assassin (Nadine Silvestre). Really though this is a shout out to them more than anything- in really so fucking proud of them. Them being a part of the team- they are the ones that keep giving me my "stage" to perform... They make it so they get to tell me: ok Jazzie just go do art! And that's the most incredible gift the support system, and your team- that believe in you could ever give you- and it's one that money can't buy. Those are the gifts that beat out even a 44 red Hermes- all day. Everyday. Twice a day- EVEN ON A SUNDAY! (love Nabila from storage wars for THAT gem!!) Xx bella
