Wax and Soul

Dans le noir.

You were there when I was gone.

Interlaced between the night sky, centered in the bosom of your gloomy haze.

Your hands were trembling, your gaze was broken.

You cradled my pulse, I was falling.
You licked my wounds, I tore them open.

Another heavy road. Another passive sketch.
Another miserable morning to resist again.

You feel my breath, I suffocate.
You wrap me up, I try to escape.

The crowd is dull, the stars are blank.
The city sleeps beneath our bodies, the silence spreading.

Now You are afraid, and I am numb.
You live here, and I don’t know where I’m from

We close our eyes and paint our faces
You imprint your cursive palms onto my rags,

A grotesque fairytale, our unholy union
A sea of misery, the foam stained red,

Clashing above the heavens, and enveloping us ahead.

New Ideas

Dress up for Fall with a mix between light fabrics and layered accessories.

Paris, je t'm.

So for the past two weeks I was in beautiful romantic.. and heated, Paris, France, for a summer course at Parsons University in Haute Couture. The course covered almost everything from fashion history to hands on purse making.

It was refreshing to visit another culture, I rapidly became enthusiastic with the vintage and urban one of a kind stores that are found there. From handmade floral dresses to greek inspired sandals, I was swallowed whole by the fashion realm.

Many guest speakers that work for high end designers came in our class to visit and explain their day to day, here's a photo of one of Ungaro's designer assistants in the jewelry dept :



So you would see anyone and everyone wearing similar designs as these sandals, the heat there was scalding hot! I'm not surprised they chose to accessorize their feet with these spacey and airy shoes;



the retro look was also very popular, people would combine their one piece jumpers with their colorful docks, something I do myself:




Or they would bring out their high waisted shorts and combine them with knee high boots , made of suede or leather;









Lots of florals, because of this season;




I'm actually really in love with the retro is here to stay look- some red lipstick , simple make up and sunglasses will frame the face;




As for jewlery I'm a big fan of loose hanging pendants and huge lockets;


and for a head piece it's nice to add a little retro flare too :


I personally bought a hot pink piece like that.


* Back to my schooling, I visited the luxurious shop district as part of the course of haute couture, which naturally was born in Paris. We were emerged into the trend of the little black dress, the vintage chanel suits and the didier ludot creations;
