Things I'm liking right now

This Article (thanks AJB) from the New York Times about why we go to museums and what is it that we're looking for.
"Slow looking, like slow cooking, may yet become the new radical chic."

These picture I took of Lykke Li, who is a flat-out amazing performer, knocked me out. Not the picture as much as her insouciance, skill, and amazing ruffle coat. Find her cover of lil Wayne's "A Milli" on youtube and prepare to be blown away.

And my Industrial Zipper bracelet, made for me by Tay Trong, Freelance Cosmonaut.

And also my wonderful friends at McTega who sent me their delectable necklaces for a shoot. They used to work for Rodarte and then started this amazing jewelry line (and soon to be clothing line!) I only wish I could hang them everywhere in my apartment so i could see the light reflecting crayola colors, everywhere i looked...And though its hard to tell from the picture, the bottom necklace has spikes, like emerging shards of glass, that could veritably impale. Aka, perfect.

  1. Lykke Li looks like Stevie Nicks if she had collaborated with Bauhaus.

    NASA actually approached me to commission the bracelet for the crew's next flight to use as a tether for their spacewalk. I told them I'm on only if they bring on Hussein Chayalan.
