sur la plage

vogue paris, avril 2011.

this is what i had in mind when i was thinking about my jewelery previously mentioned. i will be on a beach in approx 2 days and plan on putting them to good use.

i havent been everywhere, but its on my list

ive been on a hunt for knotted, beaded, friendship-bracelet inspired jewellery. mostly bracelets that i can load up together.

not normally my style, but i like that they seem like there is a story behind every piece, a friend made it, you got it at a flea market in a far off land, etc.

i actually found a few today. spent about half an hour playing around with the different styles and colours until i had a good bundle. not exactly my romantic story of finding these pieces as i stumble through life, but im very happy with them.

the absense of old friends one can endure with equanimity.

it is always painful to part from people whom one has known for a very brief space of time. the absense of old friends one can endure with equanimity. but even a momentary separation from anyone to whom one has just been introduced is almost unbearable -oscar wilde

la mode de l'ouest

serina, i stole another photograph. just because i miss vancouver, and your photographs capture the feel of the city well. i also miss you and michelle (in the pink skirt) and your inspiring styles.

*i dont know tiffany, but her look is great as well!

summer, where are you

every night after dinner we would buy gelato and window shop on boulevard de la croisette. one night we went to dinner at a restaurant that you couldn’t drive to. the cab dropped us off at a beach and we had to walk along the shore for ten minutes until we reached this restaurant with that had no glass on the windows. It was right on the shore, we sat and ate while watching children play as the sun set. By the time we ordered dessert it was dark out, and just as we were marvelling at the evening, across the water a fireworks show began, seemingly for us. true story.
