Meet Virginia. AKA Ginger. AKA Ginny Babe. Around here, she is known for making the impossible possible. For example:
Example 1. Queen Elizabeth II, Ginny's summer neighbor and close confidant, was vacationing with her corgis last week when she received an urgent call to return to Kensington Palace (Prince Harry needed a cameo for his retaliatory Invictus Games video). The Queen hated to turn down the smack down of the century, but couldn't bear the thought of leaving her pups alone. It took exactly 96 seconds from the time Ginny saw the Queen's text to the time she was at her door, leash in hand, demanding the Queen make a stand for her country. The Queen was so appreciative that Ginny walked away with a coveted Launer bag that afternoon. YAS QUEEN.
Example 2. Azzedine Alaia had Ginny in an uproar upon hearing his heartfelt sentiments regarding slow fashion and true craft. "THERE ARE NO RULES!" she shouted, "AND TIME DOESN'T EXIST!" (It should be noted that Ginny recently read up on Einstein Time in The Big Leap). By the end of their extensive conversation on the pressures of traditional fashion seasons and importance of detail, Azzedine had rescheduled his show to early April. Ginny, of course, made the trip to Paris to attend the event, decked out in the designer's sublimely beautiful pieces.
Example 3. She collects a pile of my words each week and carefully crafts them into these coherent sentences. Although we do not have any spare Launers to give her, I hope she knows that "The Future Is OK" will be forever grateful.
Basically, she rules. It's ok to be jealous, I know I am. Now to check out her look of the day.
