z spoke... and fruits with faces

Z spoke by Zac Posen Spring 2011

What can you say after this beautiful mess? Honestly I don't get, It doesn't tell me a story. But then again does it have too? All I can say is that the prints are exquisite and somehow took me back to my elementary classroom...stickers with random objects with big smiling faces. Fruits with faces, why not? By the way Z spoke is exclusive to Saks...in other words I work at the place thats sells this dope stuff. Yup, I'm proud.

the story of my life.

It's pretty simple. My everyday... chaos, disorder, and never a dull moment. The truth is we got some awesome children mannequins. Which of course is also my department, surprised? nope. Anyway, I was so excited, and like a dork I whipped out my camera phone and took pics of them. Then took pics of my desk and my collage of photos that inspire me. Welcome to my everyday...

If I had a designer mother, her name would be Consuelo....(Marni)

I must admit, I get to see things a fashion person would dream of seeing on a daily basis. My typical morning at Saks while going to our studio,is walking by a Carolina Herrera trunk show (seeing details of embroidery at it's finest),to meeting the representative from Huate Hippie who was Catherine Malandrino's assistant at one time. Literally everyday can be fashion amazingness...and yeah I totally take it for granted. On to my Marni... The rep for Marni spoke to us about Consuelo, designer for Marni. I instantly fell in love with her aesthetic. She considers herself an artist, can find inpiration in anything, a mood, a painting, a feeling. She finds color palettes in paintings for her collections...brilliant. She's never had any formal training, drapes everything... so umm sorta sounds like me? Her thought process (from what I could grasp)was of a fine artist, her approach to clothing? exactly the same.
