black and white last night

Got an art fix last night in Chelsea, first off we went to the three locations of the Fischli Weiss exhibit.
I love the breathing rat and bear I really wanted to take a nap with them.

Then on we went to Olaf Breuning's opening. I am borrowing a camera while mine is getting fixed and it decided on it's own to make a panorama picture of Olaf's work!

I am not a very good street style photographer I always take pictures from people's back. This girl had a great bow dress and the best part was the hole in her tights.I love the polished with the messy. always.

scarfs! and pretty people!

Olaf being fan-ed on

good night

golden hearts in september

One of my dearest friends Jamila got married back in September. During NY fashion week. In North Carolina. So while everyone was getting blisters on their feet from walking in heels I caught a small plane to North Carolina and we all had the best of times there. I cried buckets and we laughed tears. Best friends are what makes the world go round. I wish Jamila and Patrick endless happiness and love.

Jamila fittingly in her Blushing Bride dress while getting ready


This Toujours Toi good luck piece I made for Jamila while we shared the tiniest apartment in Williamsburg when we both were in the process of getting our businesses off the ground.


We got ready in the most amazing house! It was all too dreamy. I am wearing The Loner Circe necklace. Jamila's theme was gold hearts and peacocks!

on my way

I was walking home a little down and tired in my tap dance shoes (that's another story) when I found this treasure on the street. Translation of the title "The Great Passenger Boats"

I have always been so fascinated with these endless sea travels.
Sorry for the flipped view of images, the only camera I have right now is my photobooth.

this looks like a pretty rough passage


these guys are on a boat!

This cute blog post reminded me of the cat post I wanted to do back in July, after discovering so many cat-centric things while yardsaling with Garance and Stella in Long Island.

Nike Shoot for Kinki magazine

This Nike shoot for Kinki shot by Jonas Kündig was lot's fun! Barbeque, good music, fun people, pitch black forest and trying to get dressed in the dark and not fall over. After putting on the Nike Air sneakers I thought; Shit I've forgotten what truly comfortable shoes feel like.

Here I (but these are not my eyebrows) am covering up dear Arlette's face! Arlette is the buyer of Kitchener plus and I never meant to do any harm..Arlette is wearing her own Sailor's Love earrings!

In all photos I am wearing Nike hoodie AW77, Selling Tights tights, Sailor's Moon necklace (Circe), Cerillos necklace (Toujours Toi), Sweet Surrender blouse and Honeypie shorts (Family Affairs) voila

Totally STREET! with Stephan Armleder aka Genevan Heathen and skateboard legend Jason Singer.
