lilaccatgivvi- For those of you who don't know, Ramadan is an event which falls in the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, usually lasting 29/30 days. This is a holy time for Muslims, and is regarded as a time of reflection, spiritual growth, prayer and fasting. Fasting during Ramadan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, and so is extra important!
For those of you who do know about Ramadan, and are fasting during this period, here is your essential guide to Ramadan!!
Amber.Stardoll- It seems like Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom have been married forever even though they've only been for two years. But a bird is whispering that their happy fairytale is beginning to fade... Apparently Miranda is no longer wearing her wedding ring and that it "could be that somewhere along the way her relationship with Orlando may have slipped between the cracks." Oh no! We're a bit concerned about this news, since Orlando has been spotted at many London pubs lately- also without wearing his ring! Whatever happened to the super cute couple we used to love? The couple have one son together, Flynn, and have been wanting to get more children, but now it looks like that might not happen... So is the marriage on the rocks or have they just been too comfortable to wear their wedding rings lately? We hope for the later!

- We still haven't heard from or seen Robert Pattinson since Kristen Stewart's big public cheating scandal was exposed. But where in the world is he right now? He was first said to have gone back to London to party with his old friends, but the truth is that he's hiding out- at Reese Witherspoon's vacation house! When Reese heard what happened to her Water for Elephants costar and close friend, she offered him to stay at her $7 million ranch in Ojai, California. According to sources Rob is "a total mess... He's questioning everything." Meanwhile Kristen has been trying to reach Rob via texts and phone calls: "She's dying to save the relationship. It's the only thing she cares about", a friend of KStew reveals. Poor Rob! (usmagazine)

Me and JoAnne; Photo: Courtesy of Joanne Hong Fall production has officially begun! One of my closest friends from back home, JoAnne Kotlowski, flew up here from Oklahoma to help me produce my fall collection. We found a great factory to work with, and all last week she was busy sourcing fabrics and trims from all the local fabric stores and vendors we work with for the styles we will be producing. We found some really great deals, but then also had some issues with a fabric that I had originally bought three years ago. The company had it in stock but the price had gone up almost $20 per yard! I realized how important it is to reconfirm all prices of fabric and trim from the beginning in order to correctly cost out each garment. After we bought all the materials, I drafted up all the specs sheets that the factory would need. I listed all the measurements, stitch and trim info, swatches of each fabric used, trim samples, and a technical flat for each design. For my samples, I decided to produce a size 4 and a small. As I round up the last of my orders, the factory is now working on my patterns and first samples. I can’t wait to see them! 
Me and Sean; Photo: Courtesy of Joanne Hong I also have another amazing friend that is helping me with my clothing line. He’s my business partner, Sean Juan. We met at a camp in Taiwan when we were in high school and kept in touch throughout the years. Twelve years later, we both ended up in NYC for work. As our friendship grew, the idea of becoming business partners came up as I was telling him my dream of growing my clothing line. Because of his many accomplishments and experience in finance, I knew that we both had the heart and drive to really make my clothing line into a household name. I’m definitely thankful I have both of them helping me! I’m excited to have the ball rolling on my fall production and onto designing my spring 2013! Read all Joanne’s posts here!
