Love the clothes. Love the hair. Love the concept.

how they haunt

STYLING: ASHLEY MCCONNELL PHOTOGRAPHY: MAURICIO ORITZ MUA: MARISSA CLEMENCE MODEL: ALYSSA KESTER for MIM

Here are the results of a little shoot I did a while back with a team of creative folks whom I have been working with quite a lot this summer.

Although I have been stretching my styling skills and working like a well-oiled hound , I haven't been posting too many images. Hopefully by Fall, once the majority of them are published, I'll have the green light to share some more of my work with you.

In the mean time, enjoy this sneak peak into the transformation of a Japanese demon.

Scary, no?

It's a good time to get lost in music.

no 'think' just 'be'

I'v decided to put pen to paper and start keeping a journal again. I used to recount the ins and outs of my days for years, but stopped for reasons I can't remember. And what's even more inexplicable, I set fire to all my old diaries during an adolescent revolt...or maybe I was feng-shuing... I really can't recall why but I regret it deeply.

If we were having cyber sex right now I would say 'F/WEG/2BZ4UQT?' But I'm not and you're not and we're not. But the facts remain the same.

Life is relatively good and absolutely busy.

Don't let those bottles of Stella in the picture fool you...this girl has been w.o.r.k.i.n.g it like nobody's business .The blog has taking a back seat, but not to fret, it will reclaim the rightful position of shotgun again soon.

Charles Bradley - How Long

Hello hello.

A lot on the go lately. Spent the day editing scripts, planned out my next month worth of projects/gigs and listened to Charles Bradley while scrubbing my spoons and cleaning my sheets.

I'm about to dart out for a quick date with a friend and a stroll before it pours.

PERSONA is an art project collaborated between Levi’s x Fubon Art Foundation x BLANQ. No cutting or sewing was done, but only the use of safety pins to keep these denim sculptures together. The use of safety pins allows the denim jeans to stay true to its shape and personality, so if taken apart, the jeans could still be worn. via Paper Whales and Source.

I'm loving these sculptural denim pieces. I was just hired to conduct a workshop teaching teens how to re-purpose clothing so I have been seeking out some inspiration of using staple wardrobe pieces, like denim, and making it into something not-so-ordinary.
I have always been an advocate of experimenting with the design and function of garments. The idea of re-working or re-wearing a piece to serve a different purpose than its original intent is, to me, the foundation for the concept of style.

A few snaps from one of the many out-of-town trips that will be made by me and my group of bandits this summer.

why the colour blue you ask?

GAST BOUSCHET, NADINE HILBERT

I don't know the reason why. Maybe because it was the last colour I saw before I realized the things I loved were never obligated to love me too.

I'll tell you what its like to see the world behind cloudy, delicate frames since I was never able to find myself a pair tinted rose. I accept blue because its gauzy and hides the swampy shade my eyes turn in june and november.

I find myself looking up and thinking about how the hottest stars are white and blue. I think about the last glimpse of blue before the sun sets in the sky and when we say bon nuit I think of the moon under your skin. I wonder about people who do things because they believe in them and for other reason at all.
