Take me to Venice please.

I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for this issue of Teen Vogue to come out (Dec/Jan)! Because of this issue, I made my first friend in New York and got to deliver trunks full of these gorgeous clothes to the airport :) I think it turned out perfect - I MISS NEW YORK!

I Want you to Want Me.

This is an interactive installation that blew my mind. I am not into online dating but the execution of this idea is so very whimsical and encouraging. 

It is displayed on a high resolution touch screen hung vertically on the wall in the dark room. on screen is an interactive sky whose weather (sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, etc) can be controlled by the viewer. Through the sky floats hundreds of blue and pink balloons, each representing a single person; trapped inside each balloon is one of 500 video silhouettes! The balloons move through sky and the viewer can interact in tons of different ways... 

Go to the website and watch the video! 

Enjoy.

Halloween to the MAX!

Halloween...One of my favorite holidays - not because you get lots of candy, NOT because of the scary factor - that is probably one of my least favorite things in the whole wide world but because you get the opportunity to MAKE a costume :) wear whatever the heck you want to wear and noone can judge you! This was my costume last year - I think it confused people more than it did impress them but I had a blast making it so WHO CARES! It was a bitch to take out at the end of the night though.... that is about 3 spools of yellow yarn tied and braided into my hair....

Boo.

My Dream Bedroom

It's official, if I live somewhere that is surrounded by a wooded area - I WILL HAVE THIS.
I have always wanted to have a tree house or club house that is of a serious nature - I have found the perfect solution...

Belle and Boo

Gaze with complete enjoyment please :)

Goodbye To You.

I know this old news... but how sad is it that polaroids will soon be no longer... I mean really... instant photography is such a beautiful thing...



I came across "For the Love of Light" a couple weeks ago! It is a tribute to the Art of Polaroid! 25 photographers from all over the world are coming together to create a book - it comes out this summer and I am more than excited to see what they captured.

Au Revoir Polaroid!

Beautiful Tiny Things.

Sophie Cuvelier is a French artist who makes these beautiful Garlands from hand-dyed paper! To me, they look like the product of a 10 year old gone mad with construction paper and string! I'm tempted to bust out the craft scissors and create my own rendition!
