Dear Pink,

You once covered the four walls of my room. You once were my prefered colour choice to pair with black. I hated you for a long time, but you are slowly creeping your way back into my life. Not so much in apparel, but I dig you nonetheless.

From, Steevy

I own A LOT of jewelry, but I don't wear it enough. Gotta start.

While researching fashion licensing recently, I came across YSL's attempt to break into the cigarette market during the 1980s. I kind of want a carton for collectible purposes only.

put your hands up

my first year away at uni, the "rock on" hand gesture was my signature in photos.
when i got back from hawaii i went through a brief period of doing the "hang loose" gesture in place of the usual courtesy wave while driving.
hands are our voice when our mouths can't be.
i love hands and bones lately. i think they are beautiful.
bones are our bodies' mothers so to speak.
we are all different, but our foundations are the same.
we have that going for us.

agree/disagree

“The advice I like to give young artists, or really anybody who’ll listen to me, is not to wait around for inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs; the rest of us just show up and get to work. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you are not going to make an awful lot of work. All the best ideas come out of the process; they come out of the work itself. Things occur to you. If you’re sitting around trying to dream up a great art idea, you can sit there a long time before anything happens. But if you just get to work, something will occur to you and something else will occur to you and somthing else that you reject will push you in another direction. Inspiration is absolutely unnecessary and somehow deceptive. You feel like you need this great idea before you can get down to work, and I find that’s almost never the case.”

pre-emptive

As of yesterday, my store is officially decked out in spring. Shorts already? I mean, I am so ready for the heat, but it's hard to sell shorts when people come in just to bum heat off us. Nonetheless, our new product got me yearning for summer. Just some pictures to get me through (five months that is...)

Ps. Pic#1 is a great transitional outfit no?
