Smile File-Junk Mail

/ / 16 Comments
I love art made of unexpected material. Talk about upcyling! Sandhi Schimmel Gold makes these pop-art materpieces out of junk mail. Spotted on Flavorwire. I honestly can not believe the expressions Gold is able to coax out of paper. Amazing what people are able to see and do with really simple materials. I mean these scraps of paper were probably destined for the recycling bin! I can not imagine the vision you need to create these things. People are rad.… View Post

In case you’re not familiar with The View: “Created by Barbara Walters and Bill Geddie, who both also serve as the show’s executive producers, the program features a panel of women as co-hosts.

Afia-The Perfect Pieces for Spring & Summer, Ethically Made

/ / 38 Comments
A couple of weeks ago I read about Afia on Ecouterre and instantly fell in love with them. Afia is a fair trade sustainable line founded by Meghan Sebold. When I read Sebold was launching Afia at a pop-up shop in New York I knew I had to visit! So I tweeted with dear Ashley of Ashley4Emergy and off we went (more on sweet, sweet Ashley another day, PROMISE). On a trip to Ghana in 2006 Meghan Sebold was inspired… View Post

My aunt and cousin were in town from Florida last week and my mom being as gracious as she is took them to a Broadway show and some dinner. Mamacita also asked for me and broski to join them and this is what I wore. (jacket-century 21; gray sweater-target; dress and boots-urban outfitters) At the moment I’ve been so hesitant to put away my boots; the rain and the chilly weather in NY keeps me doubting the chills are over.… View Post

I LOVE their style so much! Midwest Style is made up of a group of… View Post
