Ride with me, Glide with me...

I know you've all been gripping the edge of your seat wondering why I haven't been updating my blog (what was that? no one but my mother noticed?), but I've been working on a large order for a new online shop that's opening in the next few weeks. Since I can't share the shop with you just yet, here's a peak at the my look book for the shop (which will be on the front flash site - fuck yeah!!), above. Oh, and I've added some new pages to my website if you want to check that out - below.

Creatively busy as usual. So just remember, when I disappear, its doesn't mean I'm hiding out, or trying to be a hermit or anti-social or anything, it actually means I've been sucked into a creative vortex that I would probably not come out of (were it not for the neccessity of things like sleeping, eating, and cleaning). For me, creating is the perfect way to end a perfect day. Take it away, Harry...

Come and Get Em'

 here. 

here. 

Get em while you can, these babies won't last forever. Floral backdrop not included. 

Get Down to It

Nothing like your brothers server getting hacked to inspire some internet redecorating. The new web page is up and running!! So much easier to look at, so much easier to navigate, and with LARGE thumbnails. If you never saw the old webpage, consider yourself lucky. Check it out! I'd love to hear any suggestions or constructive criticism, too.

This week: getting some listings ready for the shop, theres so much more to come yet so little time to post it all. My friend Alia invited me to raid her closet for the shop, I'll be working on getting those listings up as well over the next few weeks as well . She's got really amazing things, beautiful florals, some velvet, some lace, and even a few caftans. I'm especially excited about doing a photo shoot with someone besides myself, she's an incredibly talented artist and photographer so maybe I'll learn a bit in the process.

You must've been a beautiful baby...

New listings in the shop! Get em' while their hot. And bright. And ready for spring! I know L.A. is ready for spring. Thats right. My birthday is coming just in time for the sunshine!

For the first time probably since I moved to Cali 10 years ago it will not only be SUNNY on my birthday, but also 80 degrees. F yes. 

In over my head but it sure feels nice

This weekends project: turning an old suitcase into a jewelry display case. It came out well enough that I already bought another trunk... now I just have to make more jewelry to fill it up! It would also be convenient to find a caravan to sell all of it out of. Someday, my friends. Oh, and I'm almost done photographing my latest store offerings. Here's a little sneak peak.

soon to be available here. 

Start it up

New year, new listings in the shop.
