On October 5, 2011, before learning of Steve Jobs’ passing on Twitter, I had tweeted: Life is good when you get to interview @paulwalker47 – he keeps it real and pretty. A friend had replied asking “the guy from the Skulls?” to which I tweeted: Word. Seconds later, I retweeted: RT @MarcHustvedt Oh man, saddest [...]

Gossip Girl had its fifth season premiere this past Monday and if you’re like me, you tune in to not only see the drama, but to see what’s being worn during the drama. Everyone’s looks are the inspired to be- they are the ideal heights of fashion done in a way that identifies the characters [...]

Victoria’s Secret babydoll, Topshop top, Bebe shoes This is the September 2010 me. When I saw these photos, I said, “Ehhhh”. So I never posted them. But I came across them recently. And nearly a year later, I now say, “Ehhhh, this is me.” And I’m good with that. Isn’t that how it is with [...]

Beauty is important. Yeah, I said it. I’ve come to realize that you can buy all of the clothes in the world- dance around in the couture gowns with your face painted up into a masterpiece and your hair swept up into the sweetest confection- but it’s what you’re left with the next morning that’s [...]

Conversing with designers while touching the very pieces that were born in the corners of their brains is a special time. The constructions are determinations realized, while the words exchanged become the transparent accents to the very beauty you’re holding.

I had surveyed 19 of my female and male friends at work and had them tell me what trends they like- the girls sketched the trends they like for themselves here and here and the guys sketched the trends they like to see on girls here. It was a fun experiment in preparation for trend [...]

WWDMAGIC… a place that sounded like a dreamy far away land… a place where some of us landed after a whirlwind swept us off of our feet… a place where we only saw good… a place where we met friends- full of intelligence, heart, and courage- along our journey… a place where we’d rather forgo [...]
