a thousand apologies

so sorry for being gone so long! got swamped with work. speaking of work, here's a page from my sketchbook, a quick drawing of one of my favorite editorials. i often do little 10 minute sketches like this to warm up before a longer project.

givenchy resort

this collection is blowing my mind with its infinite, innovative combinations of black and white

and leopard print

my favorite things

i have so many marinéres collected from my time in paris, and i wear them all the time. so many, in fact, they have their own drawer just for stripey things.

my other favorite thing to wear is big men's shirts, half untucked.

and lastly, i love to mix black and white prints. sometimes i'll wear up to three of these pieces at once.

paris

so something about me: i used to live in paris. went to art school there for a little while. learned so much about how to dress from les parisiennes, and now have lots of beautiful memories and striped shirts à la marinière. and every month i find myself in paris again between the pages of paris vogue...

seeeing spots

i'm still so attracted to animal prints. done the right way, they can be so fierce and feminine....


speaking of fierce females, here's one: the late, extremely great louise bourgeois. a role model as a woman, an artist, and one hell of a stylish, sassy lady...
