The Power of Fashion

Fashion is fun,it has more power than most in this world understand. As innovators and artists it is up to us to set the standards of letting the world see and understand what is beautiful. It is the designers that create the creme de la creme of clothing jewelry ect. that will ultimately set what goes into the average persons closet after the knock offs that we inspire for stores like "Forever 21","Rampage" and any other affordable mass produced store in the malls across America. Its a wonder that the designers at the top aren't making more dollar for their contribution with that being said. VOGUE is the castle of fashion and art literary prestige and Anna Wintour is queen bee.

Some new inspiration

Even though I am on designer hiatus,the inspiration intake never quits. Here is a taste of the mind candy I've been tasting.



Vanessa Paradise's beautiful French elegance extended into her pop flair tunes. J'adore !!!

The seductive femme fatale of classic temptress Rita Hayworth. Sophisticated Seduction is something I'm trying to bring into my work with just a hint of girlie vintage edge.

New Girl on the scene is a mysterious Boston bread acting student with a super passion for high fashion. This fashion enthusiast who charmed the media fashion week 2009 fall and is on the rise. She was seen sitting front row at several shows at every VIP party in the spotlight of the media all while quite down to earth in our crazy over the top fashion world,posing for pictures with grace.

Our girl of the moment with a bright future ahead is BECKA DIAMOND!!! She has her style down to class and edge while giving us the constant essence of rock n roll (my own personal fave trait to this stylista)...Looks like Kate Lanphear the style editor at Elle Mag is already a fan scoring Becka major girl worship points by all of fashion darling's girl crush Kate's all around chic!



I knew she would be an absolute hit with the press the minute my favorite VOGUE features editor Stephanie LaCava wrote a prefashion week article on site Vogue.com introducing the lovely gem of a fashionista into the public eye along with an illustration by Blue Logan.

Lula Mag Tribute

Lula Mag is spell bounding and a dreamy world full of fairytale inspiration drawn from the essence of the most special side of the female condition. Each issue curated by a special muse to input an array of interviews with fashion darlings indie and high with fantastic editorials that incorporate words of wisdom and poetry through out.



Daring high end 90's famed super model Karen Elson really out did the other past issues with her picks for this one. Her friends are one of the most cultural cliques in the fashion industry that reach into the artistic world of song, film and cabaret,strong and down to earth woman even with their beautiful oddities. This months highlights their vintage pagan like hearts in spreads and interviews.I love the focus put into these woman,to name a few Sarah Sophie Flickr a regular at the best fashion events in town decked out in vintage class when she is not dancing gracefully around in toe shoes on a trapeze somewhere dangling in a geminola tutu...



Ahhh the 90's bassist Melissa Auf Der Maur of Courtney Love's HOLE. Ironic her placement in this issue and perfect too. I give major faerie props to Lula giving woman in their 30's the chance to share the guidance of their woman hood and the beautiful knowledge that come with time.

This issue is the most special close to my eccentric girly heart being that I know or have interacted with a good portion of this biannual issue's contributors. The article "Flowers In Her Hair" by the budding designer Rachel Antonoff's always catches my intrigue with her reflections from the past to current day. She is quite the romantic.

Pick up the issue of Lula Mag soon,spread the love...And google The Citizen's Band. Your world will sparkle like a cluster of stars on a clear midnight in the summer.

New Things and People

Its Fashion Week and I've been busy going to shows,looking over proofs from passed shoots,keeping up with whose doing what online,and watching Project Runway waiting for Irina Shabayeva to either win a project or murder someone. Anyway all that being said,I've been neglecting this site.

One of my favorite things this week was meeting up with Xenia from Lime Crime Makeup. We've been wanting to chat eachother up for some time now. And we intend to do so in the future. I just wanted to share this precious gem with you. Her blog is a must read. Xenia is a new component to my collection of young beautiful woman who are working indie careers and support one another.

Anyhow I am in the works of starting a new site. I feel that blogger has been a great force for me to start,and this one in particular has helped unite many and help people show their stuff. I will continue to post sparingly here as I work out the new site. xoxo
