Nobody gets to see the craziness that goes on behind certain posts. (So many e-mails and comments full of curiosity..how it’s being done, who is doing it..are there 10 people behind this blog?? Does she have a personal chef, photographer, seamstresses, 4 assistants..) Hard hustling. That is all. Ideas are just coward projections, but the [...]

This morning I will post this and then start work, Monday blues hitting me hard but still excited about the prospect of starting fresh. Yesterday I mentioned that I had I awoke at 2 am, so before 10 am I got so so much work done. This allowed me some temporary freedom from a week [...]

One of my favorite movies is Mulholland Drive by David Lynch. Reasons, love the switching between dreams to reality but really I think the point Lynch is trying to make with his films is that dreams are realities and realities are dreams, no difference right? Cause what you’re thinking at night when you’re sleeping …

Hey guys. I’m so over everything right now, really. Weather’s cold outside, making my way out of dream state at 4-5 am, I’m just craving warmth under the covers, and I’m this close to jetting down south for warmer climates. Why can’t spring come sooner? This blasé feeling is definitely going to influence the way [...]

New envelopes, and and new juice routine. Can’t go back to Naked now, these blueprint juices are insanity. Designed new envelopes, wanted to do something a little different. Transparent on the outside. Packaging on this juice cuts to the chase. Love how the ingredients are listed and printed on clear stickers. Downside, so $$. …

One of my new years resolutions was to let you guys in on my life a little bit. I think one of the most intimate moments during the day is Breakfast, where you make the shift between dream state to reality. Mornings are always a struggle for me, I get up very early every day [...]

So, how was everyone’s New Years? All I can say is that I’m starting this year off slow and simple. This post and the design is pretty light but that’s exactly how I want to start off. I have some other projects I’m working on that are unrelated to this blog so give me some [...]

Anastasia Radevich x Luxirare collabo jacket. Oh god you guys, I don’t know how much longer this blog will last haha. Just looking at these photos, it makes me really exhausted, sometimes in the studio I have those moments where I secretly (or at least in my dreams) escape my workspace, never see another piece [...]

I’m constantly blown away by the amount of support I receive, no matter how small compared to the blogs that are in the 20k Alexa range. I don’t really know how it happened but I’m really passionate about the work I do and I’m happy that you guys share the same philosophy of luxury, design, [...]

For a while I had all these gorgeous crocodile skins at my disposal. As I kept getting new ideas for other materials, these precious hides just sat in my studio, what can I say? I was empty on ideas for how to proceed…in fact I wondered, why did I even buy these? Well, fast forward [...]

Since last year I’d been working on an outerwear series (on and off) and finally it feels like the right time to share. With this group I focused on taking inspiration from convertible cars, airplanes, classic aviator jackets and most important: our modern lifestyles. The main point of this whole thing was to really emphasize [...]

It can no longer be kept a secret. I look to Scott Disick for style inspiration. The cattle of it-girls with spindly legs and cheesy it bags just don’t do it for me. Some of you may think I’m crazy for thinking this, but he really does have great style. My mother told me for [...]

These shoes that I had gotten from Etsy were pretty worn out when I first received them, but after a good 3-4 months of wearing them nearly every other day, straps finally slipped loose from the base and the shoes were rendered un-walkable. It happened to me on the street and after that night for [...]

Hands reaching or pointing to represent best of the best. I went through a phase where I had to collect shoes. Something about owning them made me feel more powerful or something, but as seasons pass I look at those same shoes I lusted after and realize they are no longer as desirable as they [...]

This micro studded effect, as I mentioned before, is probably one of my favorite forms of garment decoration. Going through the comments it seems like the Versace post brought up some really great points about decoration that I actually agree with, but that doesn’t mean we can’t love what we sometimes rationalize as mindless. And [...]

There’s so much madness when you look at Versace’s older creations, this intensity is something I can see right away in works by other designers like Alaia or Raf Simons…I have two really old Versace books my mom got me during college filled with some of the most beautiful clothing, I was going through a [...]

I wore this out one night and…it was kind of funny…them: “omg what is that???!??!” “your jacket is glowing!” me: “uhh..(runs away)” Fact: Maintenance on this jacket is expensive. For this to really work there needs to not only be some updates on the design (which we wouldn’t mind exploring further, thank you for all [...]

This person kindly e-mailed me to introduce himself and to say he enjoyed reading my blog. Fortunately he also sent me a link to his work. Most of the time I won’t spend much time going through the website, unless of course you get sucked in and you realize you just spent 30 minutes of [...]

There were many images from the previous post that we meant to share, but couldn’t because then it’d drive you guys insane. We decided to separate the posts so we could share some evocative imagery that inspired us to create the previous design. There were so many forms we looked at before we went ahead [...]

The first time I met Anastasia Radevich was for lunch at Fred’s (Barney’s top floor)- this was almost like 8 months ago… I was excited to meet her- from her designs I could only assume that she was  very smart and talented. We ended up having a four hour lunch, and out of that lunch [...]
