All about ME .. Cherry in Los Angeles
I'm living my life in Los Angeles as a Plus Sized Singleton. I'm getting in shape, embracing my size and non conforming Blonde Barbie SoCal Ideal Beauty. I'm single, cute, funny, witty and smart. I love to talk about fashion, dating, movies, favorite TV shows, music, politics, friends, science fiction, getting in shape and all things geeky.

Cute outfit I tried to wear to the Quebic Comic Show
I decided to go casual for the Montreal Comedy Show in West Hollywood at the Comedy Store. It's starring two Quebecian (is that a word?) comics who are young, hungry and cute! Sugar Sammy, named “One Of 10 Rising Comedy Talents From Around The World” by the Hollywood Reporter, performs at the Comedy Store, with opening act, Daniel Tirado.
Sadly I'm an idiot went to the wrong comedy store in LA since I wrote down the wrong address. Thank goodness I'm cute to make up for my rare ditzy moments!
So I wore a pair of dark skinny jeans, a jade green silk tank with beading, black sweater shrug and a pair of opal earrings. I enclosed two shots so you can see the details on my tank and a pair of earrings I've had for years. I do love my accessories they really help to add a little something (texture, visual interest, contrast) to an outfit. Since I'm not a super flashy dresser but do I enjoy wearing outfits that compliment my body and coloring. This entire outfit was bought at Nordstrom Rack at a variety of locations and time.
The jeans were by Svoboda who makes jeans for women of all sizes in complimentery styles. LOVE her jeans! http://svobodastyle.com/
I have a couple of tops from Calvin Klein and adore the detailing they have. I also like the fact that they aren't 'old lady' looking! http://www.calvinkleinjeans.com/category/index.jsp?categoryId=3430139

Quebec in Hollywood Festival
Have you heard that from September 9 – 25, 2011 is the Quebec in Hollywood Festival?
They are celebrating everything from cuisine to art to music and everything in between that celebrates the French speaking province.
I attended the tasting the Grill in Hollywood’s Hollywood & Highland Center with Chef Jean-Pierre Curtat from the Casino de Montréal. They are serving his specially curated menu from September 13th – 17th as well as a special selection of wine and beer that compliments his food. You can try special drinks featuring Quebec liqueurs including Neige Apple Ice Wine, Unibroue Double Fermented Beers and Sortilege a maple infused whiskey at the Grill and Public Kitchen & Bar at the Roosevelt Hotel.
You can see Corno paintings influenced by Marilyn Monroe and bronze sculpture series called A Drop for Sharing by Margo Genest at the David Lawrence Gallery in Hollywood.
The festival will be celebrating the premier of IRIS, the Cirque du Soleil’s first resident show in Los Angeles. I haven’t seen the show so have copied the following information from their website. ‘This new production from Cirque du Soleil is a lyrical, fanciful, kinetic foray into the seventh art. Bringing together dance, acrobatics, live video, filmed sequences and animation, the show takes spectators on a fantastic voyage through the history of cinema and its genres, taking them into the heart of the movie-making process. From illustration to animation, black and white to colour, silent films to talkies, fixed shots to swooping camera movements, spectators witness the poetic construction/deconstruction of this art as an object and as a way of transcending reality.’
The Comedy Club in Hollywood is having a show on September 15th starring two talented comics named Daniel Tirado and Sugar Sammy who have gained accolades from around the world as artists and creative performers.
I am excited to attend the music event since I’m not familiar with most of their recording artists. They are having selection of artists who perform a variety of music to highlight the diversity of sound the Québec recording industry has to offer to audiances. It includes everything from jazz, classical, hip hop, alternative and world music. This diversification has also helped broaden and develop new audiences with exporting international artists that include hip hop artist Drake (Canadian). If you are interested in attending any of the live shows click on the following link for details http://www.mri.gouv.qc.ca/quebecinhollywood/music.asp
Montréal, Québec hosts fashion festivals throughout the year including the acclaimed Festival Mode & Design every summer as well as two annual Fashion Weeks. They will be hosting a fashion show on September 22nd that will show the talented designers, garment industry craftsmen and apparel manufacturers http://www.mri.gouv.qc.ca/quebecinhollywood/fashion.asp
Québec in Hollywood's most prestigious night will take place on the opening of the Québec film festival at the Egyptian Theatre, in the heart of Hollywood. Some of the most prominent Québec celebrities living in the Hollywood area will be rocking the red carpet and attend the International Premiere of Starbuck, a comedy from Ken Scott. This screening will be followed by a reception and a D.J. night in the Egyptian Theatre’s courtyard.

Keep on moving forward no matter what happens
I'd been with my job for almost 4 years (got good reviews, team player, etc) and all of a sudden my manager called me into her office to say 'it wasn't working'. It threw me for a loop to say the least. She never gave any explanation other than she'd gotten a promotion and needed an assistant with 'different' skill sets. Urghh So I got transferred to another manager as a place setter till I found a new position since I was told I was no longer a good fit for the office. I've to adopt the philosophy 'one door closes .. another opens' since I'm a good employee. Hard worker, team player, no job to small, independent, friendly, professional, smart and LIKES to work. I've decided to take my hobby of social media sites and turn it into a business. I'm in the process of setting up a site, working with a camera team and looking for a photographer for professional photos. I haven't really allowed it to set in since I've been job hunting/creating projects since my last day.
