About yesterday: 04/16/25

Had a wonderful time at Highland Park Village, an open-air mall with 60 world-class boutiques & restaurants. The area was constructed in 1931, consisting of Mediterranean-Spanish architecture.

I was invited to a private viewing of some of Dior's most precious jewelry followed by lunch at their café.

Dominique Creen is not only the head chef, but as of 2016, she's the only female chef in the US to attain 3 Michelin stars for her restaurant Atelier Creen in San Francisco. The dishes here at the Dior Cafe are inspired all by Dior dresses, meticulously composed and strewn with tiny flowers. 'The artistry of haute couture meets culinary brilliance of Dominique Creen'.

Pic 6: Fresh sour dough bread with tarragon & chive butter. Spring Bloom Spritz (alcohol free wine), elderberry, and lemon.

Pic 7: Sandwich Petite Fleurs with pain de mie, a sandwich designed after a dress designed by Raf Simmons for Dior in 2013.

Pic 8 : Dessert based on their Cannage bag. Jasmine milk-tea ice cream with tapioca and Japanese peaches.

Pic 9: The Ralph Lauren is absolutely beautiful. The store is located in what was once a movie theater that had opened in 1936.

Texas Diaries Part 2: Gulf Of America?

 

Cocaine Princess here.

Even though Texas is a red state, not everyone here aligns with Trump's values, which includes the absurd idea of making Canada the 51st state, and to my Dallas crew it'll always be The Gulf of Mexico.

Texas Diaries Part 1: Plant Based Shit

Cocaine Princess here.

Back in the Lone Star State is always such a great feeling.

Pic 5: When our waitress brought out the "plant based menu," he said, "This is Texas-- no one eats plant based shit here." The waitress couldn't stop laughing. 😆

I could only do one bite of the Mango Tres Leche cake. Oh, talk about heaven!!

It's Official, Mother Nature Hates Us...

 

Cocaine Princess here.

It's hard to believe it's April 10th, but this is what we folks in the Great White North endure. And yesterday was the coldest day in April for us to date.

-15C, which is 5F. It's official, Mother Nature hates us.

XOXO,

Selena

Cocaine Princess here.

Remembering music legend Selena on the 30th anniversary of her death. 🙏

On the anniversary, her killer, Yolanda Salvidar has been denied parole.

Slide 2: Selena's family released a statement thanking the Texas Board of Pardons and Parole for denying her killer parole.

Founded in 1611

 

Cocaine Princess here.

The Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) is one of Canada's oldest corporations. Founded in 1611, HBC started off as a fur trading company, and one of their most iconic pieces is their blankets designed with stripes- red, indigo, green & yellow stripes. According to historians, the colors were a favorite of Queen Anne during her reign (1702-14). The blankets were typically traded to First Nations in exchange for beaver pelts.

Unfortunately, last week, HBC filed for bankruptcy-- unless they find a backer.

Pic#4: As soon as word got out, they might be closed forever, shoppers begin buying the iconic striped blanket. I was lucky to get my hands on one! Those shelves cleared out quickly.

Pic#5: In other news, HBC owns Saks, who acquired Neiman Marcus, creating Saks Global, who decided to close down the Neiman Marcus flagship store located in Dallas after 118 years. The news is not sitting well with Dallas officials and they are fighting to keep the landmark store opening. For the love of fashion, I hope both HBC and the flagship Neiman Marcus are both saved.

3:35 AM

 

Cocaine Princess here.

Long time readers of my blog will know I have trouble sleeping due to my long standing feud with the Sandman. I still don't know what exactly happened or for that matter what caused the feud but every couple of months, I'll be able to go to sleep without any issues and then wake up refreshed and boom just like that, I won't be able to sleep. It's a damn struggle and I wind up tossing and turning only to find myself watching TV or scrolling through my phone. 

Today was one of those days however, while on Twitter I noticed Blood Moon was trending. Yes, today a total Lunar Eclipse Moon was visible. What is that you ask?

A total lunar eclipse, visible across parts of North America, occurred on March 13-14, 2025, with the Moon entering the Earth's shadow. During totality, the Moon appeared dark red, a phenomenon sometimes called a "blood moon"

I looked out the window and there she was. Time 3:35am.

What a beaut! 

XOXO

Grammy Fashions

Cocaine Princess here.

My absolute favorite model and my absolute favorite look from last night's Oscar Vanity Fair Party. 

The beautiful Elizabeth Hurley in a form fitting crystal optical illusion gown by Greek designer, Celia Kritharioti. Her son Damian wore a silver suit completing his mom's look.

Mental Note

There's nothing like going grocery shopping and finding this at the bottom of the bag. 

Mental Note-- Check to make sure lid is properly secured 😫

Shut The Puck Up

 

UPDATE: CANADA WINS- 3-2!!

Cocaine Princess here.

Here we go: Canada vs. USA

They are calling it one of the greatest and most important hockey games to date, given the current political climate: The 4 Nations final: Canada vs. USA

During last week's game, 3 fights erupted, including one that began 9 seconds into the game.

Trump, who just can't keep his mouth shut posted on social media a few hours ago yet again referring to Canada as the 51st state and made another jab at Governor Trudeau.' I'm not sure Trump understands that Canada is a sovereign nation or if he is aware of all the things Canada has done for the US.

The announcer tonight encouraged all fans to be respectful of the national anthem.

XOXO,

Texas Diaries Part 7: Firearms Are Prohibited

Cocaine Princess here.

Oh, this Texas weather is so moody. It's been chilly & cold here that I had to buy a couple of new pieces. When I mean chilly, I'm talking 'turtleneck weather.' I definitely was not prepared 😫

Had a delicious breakie- swedish style and then burned off those calories shopping at Neiman Marcus 😎

Pic 2: Now there's a sign you'll never see posted at any mall or anywhere else for that matter in Canada.

Pic 9: The latest issue of Time magazine. Hehe, talk about an epic troll from the magazine. Gotta wonder what they were thinking? "Hmm, let's see. What can we do to irritate Trump this week?" 😆

Pic 10: Saw this in the Sundance store window today. I love what it says.

XOXO,

Cocaine Princess
