Unchanged

singer

Singer is one of the oldest sewing machine companies, and their design model doesn’t change much. You know sewing machines have stayed the same for ages…unlike apple products that change and break on repeat. (I still have no idea why I yearn for the iPad….iTampon..iWhatever…knowing that its basically a laptop with a hacked off cover [...]

Not a substitute

Voluspa Candles Running low on Diptyque Coriander, I was on a search for other candle brands. These Voluspa candles are my new favorite, I like to have one burning on my desk if I’m working on something at night. My favorite scents are “Fleurs de Fete” and “Tuberosa Agave”. Each candle comes in a decorative [...]

Black Suede Ankle Boot

It took me three months to figure out everything I needed to, acquire all the tools needed and etc. Actually gathering the materials and tools took up half the time. The other half was the execution. Also, …

I got this gift over christmas and I’m actually not a big tea person but I gave these a try. I thought they were great. My favorite is the “winter chai” flavor. The packaging and triangular shape is nice..I know these have been around for a while and that they are also “Trendy”, …

Face Mask

Image scanned from Isabel Toledo: Fashion from the Inside Out, can’t stress enough how great this book is, and that she is literally the modern day Vionnet. Though she’s completely out-shined by the male designer pack, after she dies (not for a long long time though) she’ll be a legend.

Another color set, processed corn, nuts, yellow fruity pebbles, bee pollen, super healthy. Before it was powdered, here are the whole ingredients..I used freeze dried corn as well [...]

I’ve seen a couple of these designs float around tumblrs..As it usually is with tumblrs, very rarely do you get to see who the designs are by, just a link from what blog they came. Setareh worked with an extremely simple galaxy/floral concept that I’m loving. **If you are going to use these images …

Deliveries
