A photographer who intrigued me when wondering the galleries of NYC was Holly Andres. Her Sparrow Lane collection presented a feel of Nancy Drew, one of my favorite book series to read as a child. In each shot there is something mysterious occurring that is somewhat peculiar. May it be a trail of hair clippings or a purse illuminating from the inside, Holly knows how to make the viewer want more. She nails each shot from the background to the costumes to the lighting to the facial expressions. Brilliance in every shot!

Vanilla Twilight
Black and navy together have been a no-no together for the past many decades. That has changed for the New Year. If you pull it off right it can look like a rich night sky covering your body. Here are some images of people who were able to make this faux pa a trend.
This was a kid in my class who always dressed on trend. I love the pairing of his grey business slacks with a casual navy and white striped jacket and chucks. The black leather jacket adds a harsher edge to the look. The mixing of styles is what makes someone stand out from the rest.
Sarah Jessica Parker pairs a black studded belt with a navy blue silk dress.

Vegan in Furs
All of a sudden my hippie character pulled its way fourth and I am now on the hunt for a Penny Lane jacket, just like the one Kate Hudson wears in the movie Almost Famous. This obsession to find the essence of Penny caused me to stumble upon other people who have embraced the free-to-be style and way of life. The layered necklaces, large stone rings, fur coats and long messy hair complete this look. Here are a few of people to get inspired by.

My Valves Leak for You
While interning for Lauri Eisenberg (stylist) for a day I happened upon this necklace at one of my “runs” they had me do for the day. Immediately I fell into a deep hole of love for this locket made by Pamela Love. There is nothing more romantic than giving someone your whole heart (or at least something that looks like it). No more cheesy hearts please and thank you.
