Prone to inspire

Completely and utterly intrigued by the sculpture installations by Katharina Trudzinski.  I am feeling very inspired, specifically, by these amazing wall to floor (or floor to wall) installs.  Her paintings and other sculptures are just as beautiful and equally inspiring as well.

TANGERINE

After perusing a few fashion blogs that were highlighting some of the runway shows in London I was more taken by the trends on the street.  This comes as no big surprise, as many of the runway looks are over the top and of course the street looks are more attainable for a simple peasant like me.  HA.  Here are 3 looks I love for fall; all include a wonderfully tangerine piece.

PRONE to wear Vintage

As some of you may know, I was born to shop thrift.  I pride myself on my one of a kind vintage finds.  The only problem being, I tend to hoard what I find rather than showing it off to the world.  I finally got around to taking some pictures of some of my best vintage pieces at the time and have them up for sale in my ETSY shop.  The best part about selling vintage, preworn items, is that you can wear them too!  These are some amazing pieces that I actually hate to part with myself, but alas I love sharing them with you.

The Illustrated Nail

I’ve never been one to rave over nail polish or nail art for that matter, but this nail artist has me swooning.  These beautiful nail patterns are rave worthy.  I would love them on my nails, my rugs, my walls, and my sheets!  #patternlove

Sophie Harris-Greenslade is the talented artist behind these haute manicures.  She is based in London and is in NYC this weekend.  To do list: hunt her down.

You have to see this.

Do you see it yet?  Yep, that’s an actual person. How amazing are these!? I’m dying to see one in person and hope the incredible Alexa Meade has a show in New York soon!

I’m loving this mixed media art by Lisa Congdon. Its the perfect balance of color & texture. She also has some pretty incredible illustrations and a book about collectibles too!  The most exciting part is that you can buy some of her work HERE on Etsy! 

Can’t a girl find a fern?

Ive been searching for some time now for a great photo of a fern in a cute apartment or home.  I just can’t seem to locate one.  I did however find this pretty awesome pic of some chick with a fern.  It will do for now…. but alas, my search will continue.

Perhaps I’ll have to be the first to post a rad in home fern photo.  Perhaps.

Frances Bean Cobain

It does not surprise me that Frances Bean (lovechild of Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain) is so damn beautiful.  Hedi Slimane captures her dark beauty quite captivating-ly (is that a word?)!

You must check out the rest of James Hopkins’ art. This piece, cleverly titled “Love Seat” is just a glimpse of his perspective work. 

JUST NO WORDS

There is just something so wonderful about this word-less book.  Ariana Boussard-Reifel cut out each individual, thoughtfully placed, word. 

I mean who doesn’t love Jersey? Ok, maybe you don’t, but there must be some state out there that holds your undying love!?  My artistic friend Becky Garcia has an equally artistic and awesome Etsy shop that has been featured on many blogs and today she was the Etsy featured seller! 
I am so lucky to know so many sweetly talented individuals.

I’ve been following Morgan Satterfield over at The Brick House for some time now and regularly gasp with jealousy at her amazing mid century finds. However, it wasn’t until she posted this rope wall DIY that I practically peed my pants from sheer excitement!  How beautiful!?

It’s a great blog and shes quite sassy (which I love) and I suggest you subscribe.

Butterflies a plenty in this post via BOOOOOOOM!

Eiji Watanabe is the artist and quite elusive at that.  I searched high and low for more info on his work and didn’t find much.  This link contains a couple more installations.
