Kids say the darndest things.

Oh how i laughed.

Oh Baby!

For my dear friend... Who in seven months will become a mamma to a superb little baby child.
May your life be filled with finger painting, dancing under the night skies to the sounds of a turn table.
May you know your child will grow up in the arms of the million people who love and support and adore you.
We will build little tee-pee's and try find Wolly.
We will philosophise Winnie the Pooh.
And it will be glorious.
This feast of the heart, this motherhood.

Child

Your clear eye is the one absolutely beautiful thing.
I want to fill it with color and ducks,
The zoo of the new
Whose name you meditate
April snowdrop, Indian pipe,
Little

Stalk without wrinkle,
Pool in which images
Should be grand and classical

Not this troublous
Wringing of hands, this dark
Ceiling without a star.

Sylvia Plath

Who you calling Punk.

Im madly in love with Vivienne Westwood.
Not only was she married to a Sex Pistol(Literally),she also single handedly pissed off Margaret Thatcher,went knicker-less to meet the queen, and married a fox of a man, Andreas Kronthaler(25 years her junior.my oh my!)
An orange, bright eyed grand dame, filled with wit and madness, draped in gasp worthy attire, feet clad in shoes from the dreams of Alice in Wonderland herself, this creature of dilly madness and succulent insanity really inspires me to pull my gold 70's coat out from the darkest corner of my closet and parade myself through the streets of Melville.

little miss grown up.

Growing up as an only child was one big pretty pink, delicious, cake filled adventure.
As the apple of my doting parents eye, i was like a walking advertisement for super pretty kiddies clothing.
Seriously.
People use to stop my mother in the road to take pics of me, apparently i looked that outrageously good.
Im talking little gold dresses with hand sewn silk roses on them.
Big straw hats with goldy lock curls
So in honor of back in the day when i was bombarded with ooh's and aah's(Can you tell its been a while?)
here is an amazingamazingamazing photo shoot for a kids clothing company by Tiffany Zettlemoyer photography that is just so very pretty.
