ACNE, resort2012

ACNE RESORT 2012


Resort 2012 collections have been out- ACNEs was exceptionally eye catching for reasons inexplicable. OH WAIT, I do recall a VM from Jonny Johansson in March asking for access to my labdesign for 'personal reasons'     very mysterious

Painted Gouache on Bristol, scanned and composed (photoshop/illustrator) March 2011

I really like the geometric silhouettes in this collection- especially the clash of fabrics and competing layers. The color and organic textures seem effortless and spot on, a relaxed but ladylike 50's vibe

copyCATz

Don't mean to be a copycat, Giles&Brother.


SPARE ME. Stuck for the summer means penny pinching and DIY's till I die. Old jeans=cuffed jorts. Bleach=revamped worn T's. Stale stacks of Vogue & Elle=MORE inspo.

There are few things I enjoy more than little luxuries at little cost. I stumbled upon the instructions for this gem a while ago, doing a CRTL+S for a later date. Seeing as I've always admired G&B's (funkyyetclassic) hardware inspired jewelry I couldn't resist conjuring my own piece. 1/2 hour and 2 sore thumbs later... 


Of course we deserved dessert

Hands can do more than a mouth can take in-
To create rather than consume yields more beauty in the end.

color coup

just scribblin to the beat of HMs summer 'logue

Summmer shades in loud hues feel fresh compared to the favorable, meek colors I reserve for the other three seasons. 2011's hothotheat brings too many brights, maybe more than I'm comfortable with. BUT im excited to use them sparingly. 
Shout out to the Revlon lipstick who followed me out of the drugstore and hitched a ride to my interview- powerful and confident. Heyhi, thanks for the job, Red. 

I even wore pink.

trouble is a friend of mine

Today's girl is trouble
The Golightly girl, she was trouble- and a phony

Gunter Sachs' girl was Trouble.
This little girl, Nan Kempner, carried trouble through seventy



Like a kiddo with a crayon box and a canvas wall, (ill received but not ill intended) it's the pretty things and the daydreaming that can get us in trouble... At school. With our bank accounts. With our boyfriends OR boy inexistent. These things keep it 
c o l o r f u l- I'm just taking time to figure out my color scheme.
