this work never ends
this piece is by Jenny Hart whom I discovered 8 years ago, she is great! And it's true what she says...
Lisa and the foxes
Around a week ago lovely Lisa came over to my place and we did a super low key photo shoot! Lisa brought the camera and wore her own clothes, I did the hair and the jewels. I love the photos that came back from developing. To actually get photos developed was fun... Here Lisa is wearing the Cerillos earrings in gold

black and white
Two images from my "beautiful things" folder, a Playboy cover from 1959 and a glamourous creature; I don't remember the source! Almost looks like Tina Modotti in a musical extravaganza.The images have a nice coming of fall feeling to it. The time to get dressed up more elaborately again..

palme d'or!
here is some straight up awkward photoboothing because I wanted to show you the amazing silk top with the golden palm that my darling friend Nadja Grimm made a while ago for her label Parterre. I wore it out with the Honeypie shorts. I cracked myself up because I felt so weird taking self portraits!

slightly worried but still here
So much on my plate right now. And unfortunately it's not food! Sometimes I use little tricks like working from the couch to make the workload appear less threatning..

Aphrodite bangle
This "Aphrodite" snake bangle I never take off. I love wearing a piece of jewelry day and night; it really becomes a talisman.

step by step
just a little selection off of my phone during my "birthday week" which was last week and great.
some striped NY boys. I don't know them.
Upper East lady with helmet hair and Louboutin slingback kitten heels . I don't know her either.
The PERFECT hummus and Falafel. One of my dearest friends; Jamila was in town and she writes about it in a great way here! We went here after a yoga class and before a peanut butter cookie and it was soo good!
The amazing Target dance and light extravaganza! I didn't expect much of it and was left open mouthed and laughing.
Please don't even tell me what a cheese steak is
Breakfast at Balthazar for my birthdays; perfect!
a wonderful fan I got from Susan in Korea! And a precious postcard Carmela sent me from Tokyo! I am so lucky!

The blue with the rusty red...

Lisa on Saturday
Lisa came over yesterday and we had a shooting for Toujours Toi and Circe! I can't wait for all the photos!
Here is Lisa after the shoot with some coffee and her Circe ring worn on the upper part of her finger!
Lisa in front of the "Paul Robson Theatre" in my neighbourhood, everytime I pass it I can just see movie scenes involving this location! At the Brooklyn Flea Mr. Newton stole away Lisa to take her picture. He writes about loving the Brooklyn Flea on his blog too!

the air you breathe
Stella and me went out to visit dearest Garance in the Northfork last weekend. It was a short trip but just so wonderful. We even laid on the beach looking at the milky way and waiting for the shooting stars! No bikini times for us though; on Saturday we did a great tour of yardsales and my favorites strange, little thrift stores! I can't wait to go again!
Stella got this page turner "Mafia Marriage"!
With Garance at a party where we had to wear name tags! Garance is wearing the Forever bangle..
Someone forgot their shirt. This was refreshingly not an installation
a whisp of the golden hour before getting on the train to NY!
We got on that train like a travelling circus with chair (me) huge lamp (Stella) and bursting bags! We found so many treasures. I stayed on budget with $20!

crazy on you
On our amazing trift and fun pre-birthday adventure to the Northfork, the first thing I found was this Heart record f0r $1! Nancy Wilson plays guitar like no one's business and her sister Ann sings her heart and lungs out!
Here's the cover, don't be fooled; they sound nothing like ABBA!
Here some more of their album cover art. So Good!
I love their flamboyant tomboy/witches of eastwick disco look!

Moon River inspiration
When I work on a collection I compile lot's of inspiration images which I then proceed to put into different folders such as color, fabric, make-up etc. In that way I can see themes emerging...Here are some of the vintage images I pulled from my folders for "Moon River" fw10
