Theft of Light





Lately, I've been into bones, skulls, things with a sense of dark, but also aesthetically beautiful. These creations fit right into my cabinet of curiosities, and mystery. Theft of Light collection offered by Black Sheep and Prodigal Sons. I think I want one for myself. Hmmmm.. Fashion week is right around the corner!! I'll need something to wear.

Check out Refinery 29's post on Francesca DiMattio . Refinery recently visited Francesca in her NYC apartment, and brought along their camera. The post is full of photographs of the eclectic collections the artist has acquired over the years. It also captures her style sensibility. I always love a combo of fashion and interior decor...brilliant

Happy Holidays From Chicago



The artist Anish Kapoor, known for this piece at Millennium Park in Chicago, also has a great exhibit currently at Guggenheim in NYC. His use and creation of industrial materials is what really draws me to his work. Chicago has been icy and cold. Happy Holidays everyone!!

The Ink Pad



The Ink Pad on 12th St. & 8th Ave is packed full of stamps. I love skulls and crowns, so I walked out with this skull stamp and the crown stamp along with some others.

I see dance girl on the streets often. One time during fashion week she captured the crowds with her robotic movements and flashy personality.

"Everyone will be famous for 15 minutes" Damn, I love NY!
