BEAUTY SHOTS/vienna

A few shots from our trip to Vienna.  Love some of the beauty that I saw around the city...especially in the art museums.  I will never forget the Clouds exhibit at the Leopold Museum. 

 

CALCULATED CLUTTER/my house by night

Well, here it is....pictures of my house at night.  I like fake lighting, disturbing art and quirky critters.  I consider myself to be a "collector" but Jerrmaner often refers to me as a "hoarder."  He just doesn't understand me.  He thinks that everyone has to have the same minimalist, masculine and modern style that he has.  I prefer to cover my surroundings with things that I love....lots of things that always put a smile on my face. 

Jerrmaner also makes fun of me because I never buy furniture.  Most of my furniture is from my childhood and the rest of it was just donated to me by my family.  I am not the most domestic person in the world, but I do make the most of what I have.  And I love all of the cool stuff/art that I have purchased to go in it.  

P.S. I use my refrigerator as my mood board.  It is covered from top to bottom with all that inspires me; fashion shots, family photos and lots of art.

GOING BACK TO CALI/los angeles, california

About a month ago, I took a little weekend trip to LA.  I had been to LA before, but it had been awhile...so everything felt very new to me.  I had the absolute best time!  The shopping, the food, the art, the architecture...so much excitement and beauty in one place!  I realized that I need to visit LA more often...as in, at least once a year.

Here are a few shots of some of the highlights.  

P.S.  Be sure to check out SEE/homme for your new free music download.  This is a good one!  Don't miss it!

FOLLOW THE LIGHT/nyc part 2

I was so excited to be staying at the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York.  Man...talk about my dream decor! *sigh*  In a perfect world, my home would look like the Gramercy Park Hotel and I would look like Gisele Bundchen...yes, I know this is a far-fetched illusion, but we are talking dream world here, people.  

 Enjoy all the pretty light pics.  I'm kind of like a moth in that respect, as I am always drawn to any and all lighting...well no, I take that back, I am drawn to good lighting and I think that it is highly disrespectful to have poor lighting in an establishment or at a party.  Everything and everyone looks better at night...so please, always remember to dim those lights.  

MAPPED PERSPECTIVE/jackie bassett collage art

 

Feast your hungry eyes on these!

I discovered Jackie Bassett while in Montreal and purchased 4 greeting cards to frame for my viewing pleasure.  Aren't they amazing?!  If you already knew of Bassett, well then, you already fully understand her talent.  If this is new to you, then you should click here and check out her shop on Etsy.  I think that I will be purchasing many  more of these in the future, but for now I am settling for these few beauties.

I just love how the maps almost look like the woman's insides in the first two pictures.  The first picture is the one that initially got my attention.  I find the picture to be completely haunting; something about the coloring, the woman's facial expression and the placement of the map has me absolutely mesmerized and wanting more.  

Hope these feed your soul as much as they fed mine.
