techno jacket and virtual reality skirt - Michelle Uberreste belt - fox and owl Part numero dos! Of my lovely cyber-infused Uberreste shoot. The weather has been too good to me..in that I can run outside and stand in the middle of a back alley draped in beams of light. I'm dreading it leaving me, but alas, that Seattle cloudy weather is basically here. The techno jacket has just enough sheen without being obnoxious, which I adore. When I styled this I was going down the path of "what would Quorra from Tron where if she had a client meeting?"....or something like that....streamline but still out of this world. :) Expect part 3 in the next couple of days. I've got some lovely shoots in the works for this weekend..as well as planting my butt down and fixing my websites...which has deemed itself impossible for me for the past month....and hopefully in between I can catch a nap. life of a workoholic. And HOPEFULLY finish merchandising my loft ...YES...4 years of past retail hell and I don't simply clean...I merchandise my shit to look flawless. Since the dawn of my first job at 16, nothing pisses me off more than when my sweaters aren't in descending order from grey to black, and the hangers aren't spaced well....like...call me OCD but it burns my retinas if things look yucky. One thing that is truly conducive to my work ethic in my own home is being in a space that allows for complete thought focus...without things all over the place..things on the walls...I prefer a minimalist black and white habitat. As an artist, and previous traditional artist...I ironically find white walls and exposed concrete to be more inspiring than a bunch of pictures. I've talked a bit about how I process concepts by sitting upside down, but it's also just as important to me to feel like the walls around me are limitless. It evokes more questions of what could be for me...I dunno...I like to talk casually about this but in reality it makes me appear cray:) Just know that incredible things brew from the bare walls and precisely merchandised racks that encase my humble abode/think tank....and that it's done while jamming out to some of Yppah's greatest tracks. ...
