Pale Fire

Some B-roll from my shoot last saturday--hopefully you'll feel all sorts of lightness and brightness and crispness and texture and other words of inspiration that were my highly exact guidelines.

Caved

The canon G10 has a high iso capacity, which is pretty sweet in this rainy June.

Oh hi.

I am so disappointingly underwhelmed by your resort collection (board shorts for women with fair isle sweaters, really?) but then you give me these, and Proenza Schouler, I forgive you. The shape of the heel is so fresh (even though its an evolution of the tapestry duck heels you did for fall) and it doesn't completely bore me like most other heels. So feel free to send my way or we could just meet up in the Berkshires. Thanks.

The never-ending, psychotic June rain is making me sassy. Will post some new photographs later on tonight--i've been on honeymoon with my Canon G10 but am afraid to take it out in this torrential nightmare.

Glittered Inadequate Animal

Here are some preliminary selects from the shoot i styled this weekend with the phenomenal Alex John Beck. These are unretouched, and just some quick picks (of which there are plenty more looks and setups) since we wrapped at 3am sunday morning. Alex = the next male Rinko Kawauchi of Fashion, no? Quite glittery and obtuse.

Macro Function

I borrowed a super slim Sony Cybershot for my 24 hour roadtrip, as opposed to my 8 pound 30D baby. Not bad...

I want a pony

Never did a pair of shoes find me so aggressively. The tips are steel, the hair pony.
