Our Deepest Fear....
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ~Marianne Williamson
This is my absolute favorite quote..... it became my daily affirmation when I needed it most. We all have those moments in life, right? The moments when we need to remind ourselves of how awesome we actually are! Well today, "you can't tell me nothin'" (quoting Kanye). I encourage you all to be totally confident in yourselves, and relish in your very special gifts. Walk in the glory of LIFE. Don't be afraid to LIVE your dreams, FULFILL your passions, and FLOURISH in every single second of this amazing journey. You are WORTH it!!
Nothing Like This....
I really love this song, and the video makes it a zillion times better. I love when artists break the mold in video production. After a while, seeing slight interpretations of the same story boarding, styling concepts, set design, and dance moves becomes extremely BORING. This video concept, and others like it are waaaay more exciting to me. Plus I <3 Dilla. :D

Inspired by Grace
“Always keep your eyes open... never go to sleep in the car, or anything like that... keep watching... because whatever you see out the window, or wherever... can inspire you."
~Grace Coddington - Creative Director, American Vogue
Quote from The September Issue
If you haven't seen The September Issue, you must check it out. Its an incredibly insightful documentary all about the inner-working of American Vogue. The film primarily focuses on the fabulous world of Editor-in-Chief, Anna Wintor, however, I most enjoyed watching Grace Coddington, and witnessing her thoughtful & passionate creative process of artfully composing & styling thee most brilliantly beautiful fashion editorials I've ever seen... Inspired by her. <3

Inspiration via Animation
I love anything art deco - And the art deco animation, and brown color scale of this dream sequence from The Princess & the Frog is no exception - even the stills are beautiful!
"I remember daddy told me, fairy tales can come true - You gotta make em happen, it all depends on you - So I work real hard, each & every day, and things for sure are going my way - Just doin' what I do, look out boys, I'm coming thru!" ~ Great verse from this tune. <3

Proud Mary
This is my great aunt Mary Upshaw. I've mentioned her in a few interviews, as being extremely influential in my decision to pursue Design as a career. I was first introduced to fashion in the 1980's, at the fashion show & pageants she produced. She had serious moxie ~ beautiful, poised, intelligent, creative, independent, driven & very successful. <3
