A closer look at TOMS Shoes
December 2, 2009 By sarah in BlogI really like this interview because it takes us a step closer to seeing how important the need TOMS Shoes is meeting really is.
TOMS Shoes is not a just another vendor trying to take part in a portion of the market, they’re a company who is about making a profit to help others. I love what TOMS Shoes stands for and the influence they’re creating.
It’s a beautiful thing to see people serving others.
It’s just as beautiful to see a man who is concerned with the needs of others and makes it his mission to create and be apart of something bigger then himself.
I got my first pair of TOMS last week. If you haven’t already, be apart of helping others. They have a ton of styles and it seems that they keep adding to their selection! Help someone by giving them a better TOMorrow. :)

If you haven’t heard of Makoto Fujimura and what he’s doing through his art and organization the International Art Movement (IAM) then you should check it out for yourself :)

Summer Nights
October 27, 2009 By sarah in Blog
This summer there was a ridiculous amount of rain in the city thus causing me to stay in and get in touch with my creative side. I can’t wait to make more, playing “arts and crafts” is always fun :)
Both black and white printed photos I painted and placed on a canvas and notebook.

Serizawa: Master of Japanese Textile Design
October 25, 2009 By sarah in BlogI recently went to the Japanese Society here in New York and saw the exhibition on Living National Treasure Serizawa Keisuke (1895–1984) He used stencil-dyeing techniques to create irresistible works of art that range from screens and kimonos to book covers and magazine designs.
I learned that he continued to do all his work by hand and stencils during a time when everything began to become industrialized. He stayed true to his craftsmanship creating amazing work using ridiculous color combinations and unique imagery.
After seeing all his work I left feeling more inspired to get back in my art mode and create. I use to spend whole days sitting in front art supplies, cutting out paper and creating textured work. Lately I haven’t made time to do much art and now more then ever I want to get back in the zone. I hope whatever I do with my creativity inspires others the way this “Textile Master” has done for me.
Thank you Mr. Serizawa : )

I Have a Boyfriend…
October 21, 2009 By sarah in Blog
The Boyfriend jean, I’m officially digging them.
The good news is, I just got my first pair :)
The bad news is, I have to patiently wait for warmer weather so I can wear them the way I’d like. (Paired with a great feminine flat/heel and boyish shirt and leather jacket. Hence photo)
So till then, my “boyfriend” will have to wait for spring in NYC to be seen ;)
