HATS OFF

WEARING: Club Monaco Jumper, Alexander Wang Skirt, Leather Booties, H&M Hat, Little Thread Bracelet

OMG, a reader sent me this link to another feature on American Apparel , this time in their Pinterest Best-of-Seen-Submitted . SICK!!! I am stoked about it.


While in LA I was privileged to visit the Cooper Design Space ; to check out some of their showrooms and creative spaces. Everyone there was ultra fashionable and so individual to their styles. Great inspiration, for literally months to come. I hope one day to be part of a creative team, or even better get to the point where others are invested in your creative projects, and see the results of your hard work sooner then later.

Now that I am back at home, no more sun, and the wind is cold, I will be hoping to invest more time in to my projects. Make sure to come back here because I need an outlet for all of those thoughts, ideas and creativity. If you are anything like me you have some pretty high days, and others pretty low: those doubting days. I know that is usually what crazy creative people feel, and on that note I take my hat off to all of you who are true to your essence, dreams and ambitions no matter the obstacles or roadblocks. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, all we need is a little faith and LOTS of hard work.

  1. i love our chats, you are so inspiring and i love that we found each other to make sense of the emotional roller coaster that is creative living. the website for the showrooms makes my heart melt in an way that makes me feel like it's going to be our home someday. I'm happy you're out there seeing what's possible and i know it's only going to get better from here.
    love

  60. I love a half tucked in shirt & the skirt is gorgeous too! I'm obsessed with those boots though, the fact they have no back is so quirky & unexpected.
    Glad to hear you found lots of inspiration in LA. The Cooper Design Space looks amazing! I'm exactly the same, I can even go from super inspired to totally low & doubting in the space of a single day, I think it's the curse of having a creative mind.
    Huge congrats on the feature too! :)

  62. OH man. I am totally going to copy how you wear your shirt half tucked like this. It is absolutely ingenious. It gives the outfit the perfect touch of quirky without making it obnoxious in the least.

    I kno wI've said it before, but the way you play with geometry in your wardrobe is PERFECTION.
