I woke up this morning to the sound of two children outside my window- making snow angels at 7a. I had been eagerly awaiting the snowstorm all night- checking the weather far to often- hoping the cold rain would end and the magical snow would start as soon as possible. Sometime…

I’m a huge fan of creamy white- I probably own 15-20 items in that color. It’s one of my favorite colors to thrift and layer- and if you ask me- fall and winter whites are totally on point and perfectly seasonal. Today in Nashville it was 65 degrees, sunny and perfect,…

A few days ago Antonio Fajardo and I had planned to do a shoot in the rain- I had dressed in all black to match the gloom but happened to pull this dress- still in my car from my Monarch Couture fashion show over the weekend “just in case” we needed another…

I have been thrifting ever since I was old enough to care about fashion. For me it has always been style choice- even at the young age of 12 and 13- I discovered that I could find unique and unusual pieces at a thrift store that would be pretty much impossible…
The Bull Fighter and the Old Man
August 13, 2014
I’m suprised that I don’t get into car wrecks daily- my eyes are so often not focused on the road in front of me like a good little driver- instead they are constantly- maybe sometimes even frantically- searching for beauty.

You know, I could have created ten million adorable patriotic outfits and makeup looks and manicures to post up on the Fourth of July, but I got to thinking- the fourth isn’t all about how good I can look in the colors if our flag- it’s a celebration of freedom and diversity and the lovely … More ‘Merica
Wolverine Heart
May 20, 2014
I’ve got a Wolverine Heart- you know- that crazy metal alloy adamantium shit, bursting out of my hands, razor sharp and bleeding every time… Warrior heart- runs out screaming into the battlefield of life- open and huge, chronically naive, loving things it shouldn’t love, too big, too brave, all in, all the time, so excited, … More Wolverine Heart
Luck is not something you get…
May 5, 2014
Tonight as I stepped into the twilight of my unmowed and clover filled front yard, I thought to myself, “You know everyone seems to be finding four leaf clovers these days- I think I would like to find one too…” and within 5 seconds I looked down and there it was- the first four leaf … More Luck is not something you get…
