Mindfulness

Today I was deeply inspired, and I felt my heart in a good place. Walk steady, I'm gonna spark a major change someday. So, 'Let us enjoy breathing together..' -Thich Nhat Hanh

Recipe for Amour

Valentine Fillol-Cordier.. Be good to your Lover. A little joy, a little joy. A graceful girl reaps a graceful boy.

Unreal

Melancholic monday, and starting to question the reality of things. T(his) absence is becoming cold and contagious, I should have called in sick today. I wish it was more than just plastic on the day to day. Damn the wait. I feel like throwing paint, and reclusively rocking out in nothing but this Cavalli blazer (ss 2010) like Kate. No expectations, tomorrow will be great.

Picaresque

Check out this well made surf film by Mikey DeTemple, with a soundtrack I could blast for days: www.highseasfilm.com. It randomly made me miss my skateboards and those spontaneous rogue summer nights rolling around on concrete with a good crew. And yes, it's all about the steeze in more ways than one.

I Felt the Sea

..and it made me so happy. One day I'll be back in the NSW, permanently.

Spring Forward

Some Marc Jacobs I want to rock for spring & summer: printed clutch, cat eye sunnys.. and hell, why not some graffiti.

Brims and Banter

Everything about this reminds me of my dad, and this Oscar Wilde quote:

'Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about.'

Design Grind

Peering in on the 2 month mark for my design job, which really felt like 2 years. Trust me, I love this feeling.. and I love a dark shade of green on guys for this late winter season.

Dirty Monday

Oh darling, I feel like this today. To nothing but a little Gucci. I love Thomas Lohr.

Shooting Stars?

Tasteful vulgarity. Dear Terry, I like what dirty random you see.

Gift With Purchase

Manila's got thrift? Oh yes, oh yes to my recent acquisition of a 70's vintage Wilsons House of Suede leather jacket. Hard find, easy fit, blazer style, rusted red, pin tuck detailing, and an unlit phillip morris fag in the right pocket to make it that much more badass. For some reason Ian Curtis came to mind. What is it about an unyielding gaze and first hand smoke that alludes a sense of 'cool'. I'm not a nicotine fiend, but if I had my pick I go with the gg kretek. Smoke and leather, get it on, get it on..

Bring It...

It looks like Polaroid is re-releasing the Color 600 Instant Film, along with a new modernized version of the classic camera. The film supposedly vibes with the old and the new, and will be at arm's length later in the year. Time to stow away the digi, and rekindle a bit of that candid. I can't wait to dust off my old polar, to merely hear that sexy ringing sound of instant development. Just remember, you only get one shot.

Trench Town

Every decade the trench just keeps getting better. As a good daughter to her father, I'll have kids of my own learning to say the word trench before even learning to walk. If you're like me you'll spend hours scoping out every visual inch of this living document, collaborated between Burberry and some talented photographers. Love it up, and crush on a few I can't stop staring at.. let's hear it for these boys. www.artofthetrench.com
