Director Encounter

I was so eager to blog about what happened the day before so i asked Melissa if we could go to a cafe w/ Wifi while we ate lunch and Out of the blue cafe was the place to go. the food was great and atmosphere was bright and cheery, but for some reason my antiquated ibook was unable to connect to the cafes wifi. Thank god Melis brought her new macbook so we put together that days itinerary. Towards the end of our meal one of the two ladies that was sitting at the table next to us asked if we were going through our invitations. Then the other lady commented on my necklace and Melissa immediately blurted out that i was a stylist. We got to chatting, introduced ourselves, and realized we were conversing w/ the epitomes Alana Heiss(director of PS1) and her lovely sister Andrea Heiss. When Alana found out i was a stylist she lightheartedly, yet seriously asked if i could be her "stylist pro-bono". I think she was rather amused that a friend of hers was unable to make a prior dinner engagement because he had to go pick up his personal stylist from the airport to ensure he would look dashing for a latter soiree, and possibly she'd like to try that luxury out for herself? naturally i said I'd be honored.

On top of that, Andrea asked if she could interview me on Art Radio(PS1's radio station) the following afternoon at Art Positions. You could imagine my delight!

What a great way to start a second day in sunny Miami at Art Basel!
