THE RALEIGH

I'm back! I took a little longer break than anticipated but I needed it.  You know those days when you just sleep forever and realize how exhausted your body was? Like that.  Anywho, nothing like a little vacay to sort things out! 

I stayed in this amazing hotel in Miami called The Raleigh.  It's in South Beach in the Art Deco district, which was so cool!  Walking around looking at the architecture in this area was really great, the buildings have such huge impact when they are all packing in together.  The Raleigh was super classy, and I just loved all the attention to detail, the patterns, and the type.How amazing is that POOL!!  So fun to swim in, I felt like a movie star for sure. Looking forward to sharing more of my trip with you... A nice change from all the New England content. Cheers! and happy monday.

SO SURREAL

Getting so pysched about an upcoming collaboration with the gals from Bowerbird! Stay tuned, its going to be awesome...  love getting creative minds together.

I'm finding inspiration in surrealism and images that leave you hanging.  Something about these photos just strikes a chord; leaping into the void, battling sea creatures, and the Man Ray photograph of Salvador Dali is a pretty good explanation of what goes on in my head everyday... I hope you enjoy, I'm smiling just looking at all this! 

...and Dora Maar? What a freak, I love her.
