The now

Fashion right now is in this really interesting place where anything goes. It's a weird pocket of time that can't really be determined how long it will last. It's a weird trend where it's best to be off trend. Think of the worst of the worst, the biggest don'ts, and wear those. Fashion right now is the opposite of obvious "fashion". And I'm absolutely loving it, because it's complete and total freedom. The most off things are the most right things. Of course, classic fashion will always be there, there are huge nods to the nineties still and the sixties and seventies. But it's in a way that too perfect is too much. Think bad nineties influences. I called this a while ago when I said the ill-fit jean would start getting popular and what do you know, mom jeans are the #1 jean of the moment. I just get bored with the typical. I like wrong. Wrong is so, so right. So pull out the shit that's at the bottom of your dresser's drawers and wear it. Complete freedom, stop thinking so much.

Inspiration for my painting

Infusing the inspiration of these images.
A gallery I found called Glass Box and an image by unknown




Love

 My room was looking so lovely last night from the addition of string lights under my window sill.


Heaven.

Hi to those that are looking

Just posted the photos I took last night. I know it's been a lot of me but that will be changing soon enough. There's something interesting in doing shoots of yourself. It's more difficult and somehow easier in a way. I am the one setting up the backdrop, positioning the camera, posing my body and face, dressing myself, hair/makeup, timer, lighting, no control on exactly how the picture looks but also full control of the model yet blindly. And then the editing, every image is looked at so closely a million times, cropped twenty ways till it's perfect, everything adjusted from light to shadows to tones. I guess what I'm trying to say, is when I end up with photos I truly love and are perfect to me, I'm impressed with myself and the work I've put into it. So I think there's something special about photos of yourself. I also just get very bubbled up with ideas and inspiration towards the end of the day sometimes, and normally I'm all I have to use. Had Panda Bear's album, Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper playing during it and it served a really great mood. I suggest checking it out if you haven't yet.

Hold Still

If you know me, then my favorite picture of you is probably a blurry one I took.

Feeling fine and Andy

The Marilyn Monroe print that now lives in my room
In a Warhol mood. Whatever that means, it's something I feel quite often.
Him and his clique of friends from Edie, to Nico, to Lou, never cease to give me my dose of inspiration. Heck, Edie was who I was trying to dress like when I was home playing around in middle school. I'd be in the house in this large silky floral long sleeve top, worn as a dress with tights on underneath. And before that, I grew up in a house in New York with a large Warhol "Marilyn" print at the top of the stairs staring at me everytime I got there. Now 22 years old, same girl had a boyfriend for two years who was obsessed with Lou Reed and the rest of the gang, playing Underground records for me in our room. Here's a few photos I've stumbled upon tonight. Thinking about working Andy's "Flowers" into some sort of tattoo. Feel free to put on Nico's "These Days" or "I'll Keep it With Mine" as you browse. You won't regret it.
