COLORFUL CLUB KIDS - BLACKBOOK MAGAZINE

Love this editorial shot by Jason Kim and styled by Christopher Campbell for Blackbook's 
October-November 2012, Issue 94.

It's seems more Indian inspired with the nose rings, tikka jewelry, colorful prints & embellishments 
than club kids, don't you think?

NEW YORK CITY

I'm finally back home in New York after a long two months away in Europe. I spent most of my time in London but also was in beautiful Paris and Barcelona.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I've also been busy with a new embroidery consulting project I began last week and the stress from Hurricane Sandy that hit NYC & the East Coast hasn't been motivating. Thankfully our neighborhood was spared but my heart goes out to everyone else that were not so lucky. 

 Stay tuned as I will be posting images from my trip soon, along with more embellishment inspiration!

BALMAIN - RESORT 2013 RUNWAY

Balmain's Collections are always stunning. And for this Resort Season Olivier Rousteing went to a resort in Miami's South Beach for inspiration.
