WOVEN MUGSHOTS

I just discovered American textile artist Joanne Arnett (via The Jealous Curator) and i'm completely in love. Arnett "weaves large scale portraits with wire so the face is visible when light bounces off it. The images shift, like a giant daguerreotype from positive to negative depending on where the viewer stands, or sometimes they completely disappear into the plane of fabric. " -The Jealous Curator

LIFE ON THE WATER

My sister Alden is going on a 4 day sailing trip up near Canada in the North Pacific this weekend. . .  Even though i'm picturing four sunny sailing days in the vein of Daria. . . she assures me it's going to be cold and a bit less leisurely, but quite the adventure! Either way,  have a blast Alden!! And happy happy birthday!!

Also, I plan on dressing like this every day this summer. . . Geraldine Saglio totally nailed it.  Vogue Paris May 2013.  Photographed by Giles Bensimon. via Studded Hearts
