THE POWER OF FLOWERS

the second temps catapult upward, i can't imagine wearing anything but blossoms. and these days, emulating nature & crafting my own. oh and... stopping to smell the gardenias, before the florida sun burns them up.

on the sound front: my ears happily exploded yesterday en route to jamba juice when hipster runoff played lo-fi-funk's track, city. had never heard it, despite the fact that their album, boylife, came out in '06. swedes get electronic right. dig it too? get the mp3 here.

the homepage that launched

a thousand blooms.

or six.

i've mentioned hue here & there as of late on the blog because their denim leggings have been my BFFs in the last few months & i'm wearing them in many of my blog photos. fast forward to like three days ago. i go on their website & BAM i'm entranced by the vivid colors. tons of them. and the necklace. worn by one of the models. but hue doesn't sell jewelry. :-( i tweet about it. hue sees said tweet. says their stylist made it herself for the shoot. ironically, i'd already made a mental note to hit michaels one day after work. this just lit my fire more.

and so i did.

kid in candy shop style, i snatched up a ton of colors, some wired polka dot ribbon, embroidery floss & embroidery needles. but i was scared. i'm an idea factory. but i've been known to blow at execution. i get distracted. i get overwhelmed. that sort of thing. i think it was the german's "when's the last time you used the sewing machine i bought you" line today that made me determined to figure this out.

voila!

don't be afraid to tackle whimsical ideas.
