DESIGN CRUSH
BurningTorch
I have always had a crush on Burning Torch, it's designed by Karyn Craven and I love her style. The unique fabrics and feminine shapes are what have attracted me. I love that Karyn recycles fabrics as well. Her up-cycled cashmere is simply wonderful, if you haven't seen it you must take a look. Each season she designs a collection that makes me want to own every piece. Karyn also creates clothing and accessories for men and babies. Soon to be added to her list of creations will be the Burning Torch retreat to escape and rejuvenate the senses. I'm sure it will be as luxurious as her clothing. You can find Burning Torch at: www.burningtorchinc.com
Enjoy!

Hello Friday!
Hello Everyone!
The surfing season is upon us in the NW and I can't wait to purchase a new surfboard. I love a nose rider although I'm still not that comfortable walking around my board much to hang anything! I love to just cruise along on top of the wave and try to stay up.
A hardcore surfer wouldn't pick a girly style board but I would because I believe style and function go together well. And lets face it I'm a girl!
I do however like this one because it's tye dye and just right for me don't you think?
Have a happy weekend!

I'm really intrigued by all of the design choices out there. It's kinda hard to
pick one. They are all so pretty!

Design Crush
Emerson Fry
Spring 2013
Emerson Fry was started by Emerson Bethany Fry in 2009 under the name Emersonmade. Since then her company has grown with leaps and bounds and it's easy to see why. Emerson started out as a painter and continued her education in fashion with select classes focusing on draping techniques, it's obvious she has pure natural talent in design. I'm really crushing on the navy blue and orange trimmed dress! It's tailored and fun like the rest of her pieces. I love stories of success like this one. Best of luck Bethany and keep bringing us good design.
Enjoy!

Hello Friday!
Those of you who know me know I'm space geek, I love the field of astrophysics. I like to contemplate space, time and creation and it something I have tried to incorporated into my work as a painter but Mihoko Ogaki does it much better. Sometimes you find that artist who can interpret feelings and ideas better than you can. Mihoko Ogaki is from Toride, Japan and has created a zen like intelligent world in her art about the cycles of life on a universal scale. I think it's really quite beautiful and eternal. I love that the human form is embodied in the Milky Way because really we're all made from star dust. I hope you enjoy her work as much as I do. Tell me what you think?
Enjoy!
