I HEART JACKIE COLLINS LIMITED EDITION PRINT
Dear Jackie,
Yinka Shonibare thought my print "I Heart Jackie Collins," was a great inclusion in his first installment of Yinka's Guest Editions. I was one of five artists he chose to be part of the collection. The other four artists are Douglas Fishbone, Bob & Roberta Smith, Mary Jacoob, and Bjorn Veno. The complete collection is an edition of 25, and on sale online or at Yinka Shonibare's Guest Project space in East London. Do you want one of my prints? I will be sure to send you an artist's proof. I think you will love it. It's rather lusciously printed on glossy metallic paper as if it came straight out of a heavenly magazine. I do hope you hang it in your gorgeous home.
Mwah!

CHRISTIAN MARCLAY'S 24 HOUR SCREENING OF 'THE CLOCK' @ BRITISH ART SHOW 7
Dear Jackie,
You know how in London we have The Big Ben? Well that's because pocket watches are totally out of fashion. But this month there is another way to find out GMT and it's at the British Art Show 7, at Christian Marclay's screening of The Clock. Marclay assembled 24 hours of footage from other films so that at any given point when you see a clock in his piece, alas it be telling accurate time. And this Saturday is a very special occasion because Londoners are able to view Christian Marclay's 24-hour piece all night long. So if you should happen to be stumbling around Southbank after seeing a film at imax or a show at Old Vic, Marclay's film is rocking around the clock, and you could just pop in there to check the time.
Down with pocket watches!
Yours,
Sarah

(EW! This person is in SERIOUS need of a MANICURE!!! She must not be a HOLLYWOOD WIFE.)

FRIDAY TREAT: COCKTAIL TASTING
Dear Jackie,
We at Dear Jackie have been very busy looking for the perfect Joan & Jackie Collins cocktails.
The Twinkle has gold sparkles in it, and it's delicious. What I really like about this cocktail is that some of the little gold sparkles stick around on the face and hands- its as if the drinker becomes more fabulous after having it, similar to how I feel after reading a Jackie Collins novel. However, The Twinkle has champagne in it and we know that you can't stand champagne. Therefor it's suitable for Joan since sometimes you can't stand her! We know how she enjoys sipping champaign with young hunks in her hotel suite. Perhaps you would prefer The Clover Club. It;s fuchsia with a creamy top and is also very delicious. They are both very Joan & Jackie Collins-esque because they are tasty, gorgeous, and never get old.
Will you and Joan be joining us for the party?
TWINKLE
An elegant serving of 42 Below vodka stirred with elderflower cordial, served in a martini glass and topped with Champagne.
Origin: Created in 2002 by Tony Conigliaro at The Lonsdale, London. Tony founded the fabulous 69 Coleborook Row in London's East End.
To make:

CLOVER CLUB
Bombay Sapphire shaken with raspberry syrup and lemon juice. Whipped into a creamy foam with a dash of albumen and Peychaud bitters, served in frozen martini glass.
Origin: Pre-dates Prohibition, The Clover Club cocktail is named for the Philadelphia men's club of the same name, which met in the Bellevue-Stratford hotel.
To make:
* 2 oz gin
* juice of 1/2 lemon
* 1/4 oz raspberry syrup
* 1 egg white
* 1 tsp sugar
SHAKE vigorously (more than normal to properly mix the egg and sugar) and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Top with fresh raspberry.

ROBBERS AT ROLEX: PLAN FOILED BY KICK ASS OLD LADY (MUST BE LUCKY SANTANGELO)
Dear Jackie,
I think I found Lucky Santangelo! She is a 70 year old woman living in London. ITV call her "Supergran." On Monday she was caught on video kicking ass as she fended off a gang of Moped Robbers with her own little handbag. The lady prevented robbers from stealing luxury watches from this Rolex shop and now four guys are in police custody thanks to her. Buying watches is dangerous business these days!
The lady said, "I know I put myself in danger. But I probably would do the same again." It's obviously Lucky Santangelo, don't you think?
I will keep my eyes peeled for future Santangelo sightings.
What a legend!

THE DOUG FISHBONE ROLEX- GET ONE!
I know you are loyal to Chanel's J12 high-tech ceramic watch, but perhaps you might be interested in trying something new for a change. You probably don't have a personal stylist, and you definitely don't need somebody to tell you what to wear. I like that about you.
However, I thought this might interest you. Artist and celebrity (in Ghana) Doug Fishbone produced this limited edition "Fishbone" Rolex art watch. You would be one of only 8 people to rock this beauty.
"Is this an official Rolex?" you may ask. "No Comment." I says.
"Did Fishbone get a counterfeit watch maker to put Fishbone on the face?"
Now, now. Put your doubts and queries aside. You dont even have to think about it.
The point is, Jackie, this here is a genuine piece of art. There are only 8 of these beauties in the entire world and you would do well to have one. Fishbone has major credentials. Young girls in Ghana collect his used towels and never wash the sweat off them so they can periodically inhale that unique Fishbone scent.
I was personally given (by Fishbone himself) a pair of limited edition Doug Fishbone thong panties. I wear them every once in a while when I want to feel like a celebrity.
You should try it!
