Looking for Something: Personal Fashion

Images by Alison Wynn

Shirt: Thrifted bridal petticoat which I painted; Sweater: H&M; Shoes: Moonspoon Salon

"There is divine Peace in bright colors and good sex and music and sushi and fresh air and nutella and free hugs." [quote on my skirt] There really is :)

Felt like a DIY project so I ended up painting my skirt an hour before we shot. Alison helped. I think I may actually carry this skirt with me to Coachella next weekend, unless it doesn't fit in my luggage. Howz it going y'all?

Shipwrecked Monkey Zoo and the Faceless Beast: Personal Fashion

Jeggings: TopShop; Hoodie Sweater: H&M; Jacket: Zara; Shoes: Irregular Choices; Hat: Custom Made by Priya CP

Found this barge floating in the Hudson river with this wrecked monkey zoo sculpture on it. Of course Ben and I had to use it when we spotted it, irrespective of weather it would float away with us on it or would just sink with my weight. Don't even ask how we got on and off it.

Gave the faceless monkeys a human factor by giving them my furry hats to keep them warm in the blistering cold and took away my face to dehumanize me a little so that I feel a little less and react a lot less. I guess as humans we do this all the time. We treat our book with respect, love our clothes and money to no end and strive our entire lives to become stronger emotionally which really is just forcing ourselves to feel less.

But underneath all of the above, I have to let you in on a tiny life secret: When you wear hand puppet mittens, life automatically becomes funny as hell for no reason at all!

Missed you guys!!! xo

AllyDiz: Street Fashion

Images by Prutha Raithatha

Bumped into these rad girls on the street and it was coolness with twice the attitude. Allysia [short hair] and Rydiz [long hair] are friends and business partners. The embellishment on their jackets is done by them and they sell these for a sweet deal. There is definitely never a lack of talent in NYC. You go girls!!

Harakujua and The Bunny: Personal Fashion

Kaftan [actually nightwear made in Pakistan]: Thrifted; B/W Tee: Club Monaco; Shoes: Irregular Choices; Hair Clips: H&M; Blinged iPhone cover: Irregular Choices

So this is how I image Japanese [Harakuju] street fashion would look like in New York. I know the colors are summer-y but I don't really care to be ombre in the winter either. So this is what I plan on wearing on the weekends in my winter here. I utterly love this outfit!!! It's soo comfy and me.
