Being Art

This post is not about 

deliberately trying to look weird

because there are more people on the planet than ever before in history

and we are running out of ways to differentiate ourselves

or feel like we have a unique talent to offer the world.

Carven - fall 2017

This post is about

Cooler Than You

Hot Date: Holiday Edition

Dilemma: You want to dress festive, but you want to look elegant, 

BUT you want to show off your Original Mind. 

So, quirky-sparkly seems to be the answer.

Gucci - resort 2016

These looks are mainly for inspiration for silhouette + cut, not colour or print.

I like the hi-waisted below-the-knee pleated skirt idea, especially in a glittery poly knit. 

Paired w/ a delicated collared shirt, or even a fitted Western shirt as they did above, is dainty & hip.
