DREAM CLOTHES

wishlist of a dream wardrobe from the beautiful maryam nassir zadeh. all of this awesomeness is on sale, too!

THE IN- BETWEENS

these are all looks from chloe's latest resort line. i was sad to hear that hannah macgibbon has left chloe because i felt like it had hit it's stride again. but this resort collection was designed in between head designers and it seemed like a greatest hits of the line. i would wear any of these looks any day. they are great shapes, interesting textures and what i think of as new basics. now, let's get it going with an unlimited budget and all of these looks in my closet. good luck to hannah macgibbon wherever she ends up next!

NEWSHOUNDS UNITE

what's up nerds? (yes i am including myself in this group) in case you haven't picked up a newspaper lately or you have resigned yourself to saving the planet by reading things online, you can now reignite your senses with a new york times inspired scented candle. the smell is being likened to one of my favorite papers of all time, newsprint. i think this is pretty clever. the print nerd in me is going to buy one now. available at the ace hotel gift shop and bond too

COVER IT

not too much to say here. a girl seemingly under duress blanketed in soft color fades. all these things make we want to know more. a beautiful cover on another lovely edition of LULA

A SWANSONG

i was recently in chicago and had an awesome time with some bros. S & J & i kicked it with a little drunk ron swanson. this one's for you guys!

ROW ROW ROW

a while back i did some custom work for reform school in LA for a new craft project kit to build your own canoe. it contains all the plans to aid you in building your own canoe from plywood and basic tools. i just recently saw it featured in readymade magazine. congrats, reform school! it looks like an ambitious and awesome project!

THESE ARE A FEW....

just a few of my current favorite inspirational things in my still-going-strong love affair in a blush and neon palette.

terrible at listing where images come from ... in no particular order...tote by FIELDGUIDED, shoes by mui mui, graffiti from france (?) tile by rob ryan inscribed with my current mantra, shoes rachel comey and flowers by SAIPUA

COVER IT

today's cover it features the covers of 2 things in my collection of stuff that i realized made me feel the same way. the top image is the cover of the new SILK FLOWERS record and the bottom image is the cover of the dictionary of superstitions. i have had this book in my possession for a long time and usually leave it on top of the stacks because i love the image. the record cover was made in the last year and feels so time lost to me. they are polar opposites of each other in time and place in the artistic spectrum but something about the still life quality of each image makes me respond to it in the same way. if i were to combine the two images, holy crap, minimalist maximalist still life perfection.
by the way, the new silk flowers record LTD. FORM is one of my favorite records that came out this year.
