BABY ITS COLD OUTSIDE





















So, I've been gone a good while...
In that time, Christmas came and went, I had a fever that lasted for 12 days until I was hospitalized.
Turns out, I have Mono...Yay. Anyways, it did clear up some time to get crafting!
Check out my new collection of One-of-a-kind Holiday Hair ornaments ...I made them during said period, and was inspired by all things magical, glittery and enchanting... They are made entirely from faux leaves and flowers, crystals and feathers. Yummy. Not only are they great in the hair, they look fabulous on the tree as well.
I'm loving them, and hope you do to!
To purchase any, call Lucia Boutique @ 518.587.7890.
These are Exclusive, people, so expect lots of compliments!

ROCK ON GOLD DUST WOMAN


Isabeli Fontana in "Fleur D'Exil" by Mario Sorrenti... Awesome

Friday, October 23, 2009

YOU THINK ITS ALL FOR SHOW, BUT THIS IS JUST THE ONLY WAY I KNOW








FREEDOM WAS HER NAME

Past:
xvII THE STAR INANNA
Clothed with the stars, Inanna, the great goddess of the bronze age, was honored with the title "Queen of Heaven".
Meaning: Follow your dreams without fear- Don't be afraid to make them happen! Success, Good Fortune and Creativity. You must follow your bliss!

Present:
SIX OF STAVES
Crowned with the Laurels of Victory, the woman rides a pure white horse. The six staves surrounding her are raised in tribute to her success and courage.
Meaning: Victory. Acknowledgement and honor.

Future:
SIX OF SWORDS
The woman is travelling in a boat to a better place. She has gathered six swords to take with her; these symbolize the new clarity and wisdom she possesses, which will be used in her new life.
Meaning: New knowledge that helps one to move beyond current limitations. The lessening of difficulties and Travel.
Overall Message:
PRINCESS OF CUPS
a girl as beautiful as Venus is crowned with a waxing moon. Anticipating love, pleasure, and the ripeness of womanhood, she drinks fully. A young woman who symbolizes the gifts of Venus-Love, beauty, and emotional richness. Movements in these areas of life. Grace.
Above is my Tarot reading from Last night... I am so moved...Feeling refreshed and ready...The cards I chose, and the imagery, give me chills of excitement...

FOREVER YOUNG

Look at these cute little outfits I just made... All three blouses (some of my friends make fun of me for wearing "blouses") are under $30 from Forever 21... I need all three!

TALL AND TAN AND YOUNG AND LOVELY

I Love this Gitana Gypsy Bikini from Zimmermann... I wish their bottoms were more brasilian, less full cut, but what can I do? The print and medallion charms are gorgeous enough to make up for it..

WHEN YOU CAME IN, THE AIR WENT OUT



I'm leaving the city for a while..Maybe forever. My husband and I were ready for a big life change, and off we go! To Saratoga Springs, NY. The above picture is how I envision my new life will be. I am stocking up on Fall clothes before I go. Faux Fur, Sweaters, leggings, studded Boots, Thermals etc.. My first Priority? Getting a horse, and letting my whole body recover from the ravages of staring at a computer for the last 5 years.. Fresh Air, Flowers & Visible Stars? the Country life is where It's at.

This summer hasnt always felt much like Summer, but last weekend at the All Points West music festival made up for all the rainy days we had. It was truly the best three days of my life. The music was amazing. Crystal Castles, The Ting Tings, Gogol Bordello, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Jay Z, Tokyo Police Club, Hey Champ, Elbow, Coldplay...To name just a few...New friends were made and old friendships were strengthened..What more can I say? To see those performances, under the sun (after the rain made the sun even more precious) with the NY skyline in the background & the statue of Liberty to the side- I felt at one with the Universe & the Universe love me back!

Think Black, glitz, metallic, gold, leopard, fringe, studs, plaid, suede, fur(faux),chains, lace, velvet, chainmail..you get the picture...

DAMN THE MAN, SAVE THE EMPIRE!
















All Photos Courtesy of Fredy Converso
This weekend I participated in the Williamsburg Edition of the "Renegade" Craft Fair. It was pretty awesome, there was a great turnout and the weather was MAGNIFICANT. The Empire has begun, now I need to plan my next move.. I havent decided if I want to sell my jewelry in stores? Or sell online? Decisions Decisions... Overall it was a fun experience, and the reactions to my collection "SoFree SoFine" & my beautiful booth (Thanks Filipe!) were overwhelmingly wonderful.

SUMMER SOLSTICE



  • Dress-Vintage ebay
It has been a beautiful couple of weeks here in NY..Hanging at outdoor bars, BBQ's and sunsets are some of my summer faves.  I haven't posted in a while since I've been making jewelry like a mad woman! I'll be showing my new collection at the Renegade Craft Fair in McCarren Park on June 6th & 7th which I'm super excited about. Besides the jewelry I'v been working on my sign, displays etc-It's a lot of work, but its fun. That's all for now, I'v gotta get back outside!

It was my good friend Janie's Birthday and we celebrated in the Red Room at The Park in Manhattan.  It was fun, although getting ready with Janie at Luke's had to be the best part.. Nothing like a little re-enactment of the hairspray scene from Hysterical Blindness..
In case I havent mentioned in a previous post, I am utterly obsessed with photo booths. Currently I abuse the one at Union Pool, in my hood.

BEST FUCKING PARTY EVER! 
"What a night for a dance, and you know I'm a dancing machine! With the fire & my veins and the sweet taste of Kerosene."
Last  nights "Rubulad" Party in BedStuy, Brooklyn was banging... That is until the Fire Marshals had ruined it with their "codes" and "laws".. 
Multiple levels of fabulous people, human sized birdcages, rooftop with Panoramic views, Caves for crawling in made from Whipped Cream looking paper-mache, loft beds, snuggling bungalos, multiple bars, dessert stations & amazing bands and trippy performance art  in every room. I LOVED IT! It was so much fun! I had a blast hanging out with so many friends, new and old. The Party continued on at Union Pool then to my apt for an all night dancefest. We watched thee sun rise from my backyard, then called it a night. If you have never to been to Rubulad, but like awesome parties, It's a must to check this place out.
"It's sort of hard to say what makes the parties so good. At first you think it's the space, wonderful and baroque. Then you think it's the people, who dress up, follow the themes, and wear costumes. At one point you start to be impressed by the performers: the DJs, a puppeteer, some guy showing old films, a groovy band that gets everyone dancing. And finally you realize that there's a consistency to each party that isn't an accident, and it's the people who host it who give it that consistency. In a way, Chris and Sari are pretty much responsible for all of it, or at least for setting the framework that allows it all to happen."-Nonsense NYC 1992
