manhattan

The hotel above and the street below. Apartment filled with the ghosts of the friends we used to know. In and out, going on and on. Stranded and strange right in the center of it.

Losing my touch, out of time. Hide from who you can. In this world, I found out that love leaves. Yes, I once had a great love. A big love. But I shook it from my hair, just like everything else. You say you've got nothing to hide, you and your secret life.

You've got your secret on. Wanting to live all the time, and then slip right out of it.

Don't look at the moon tonight, you can never be manhattan.

We are the makers of dreams, the dream makers. Magic in our eyes that we put on paper and manifest into reality. We live the stuff that starts in our heads.

Create a world of your own in which to dwell, flowers on the wall and glitter in your hair. A leopard rug to roll around in on the floor and a silver mirror fit for a blonde castle. Let your closet spill onto the bedroom floor, pinks furs, lace lingerie, and kitten heels. Let your bed drip layers of soft white blankets like acid in the winter. Keep as many plants as you can in your house, let them grow into a garden in your kitchen. In the fridge, only an endless supply of pink champagne.

Love adorns the walls here, and the East Coast sunset fills the room with sea salt and shades of pink. Pink spilling over the baby cactus in the window, the sun-drenched sheets and the rainbow shoes on the floor. This is a place of magic, where any dream can be pulled into reality.

daydream trip

Hey shady baby, I'm hot. I'm sad. But I need a little sadness. Depression is like a motor for creation. I know you disagree. A surface as dry as Venus, hot enough to melt lead. Being with you is like being on a cloud of sulfuric acid that reaches 100 miles high. We're living in a time of massive change, like the Industrial Revolution on cyber acid.

 LSD burst, psychedelic slip. It was the beginning and we were creating art, creating ourselves. Dressing up and manipulating light. There's more to reality than we've encountered. Pop culture keeps you catatonic, keeps you from searching beyond that which is laid out in front of you. Eenie, meenie, miney, moe you're the chosen one.

Obstacle 1

"I wish I could eat the salt off of your last faded lips. We can cap the old times, make playing only logical harm. We can top the old lines, clay-making that nothing else will change. And I'll never see this face again. And you go stabbing yourself in the neck.

But she can read, she's bad. It's in the way that she poses, it's in the things that she puts in my head. Her stories are boring and stuff. She's always calling my bluff. She puts the weights into my little heart, and she gets in my room and she takes it apart."

I don't know about you guys, but I grew up listening to Interpol. (You can even see some of their influence in my earliest blog posts.) They have hands down been my favorite band since I was fifteen. When I shot these photos for Foxiedox with my boyfriend, I immediately thought of the girl in the hallway in the Obstacle 1 music video. The way she just shakes it like a mental case in that big furry sweater against the wall, such inspiration!

But let's talk fashion! I am seriously in love with this black fur vest. I've been wearing it as a layering piece ever since the temperature started dropping here in New York. I wear it to yoga with my leggings and tee under my black leather jacket. Even if you're in LA, you can totally use this as a cool fur pop layer under any jacket.

And okay some of you may hate me for this, but I've also been using it under my other faux fur jackets.. yes... a double fur! Some people make fun of me for it, but I also get a ton of compliments like, "where did you get that two-toned fur jacket?" Little do they know it's a fur vest + a fur on top of it. It's one of my favorite stay chic, but stay warm tricks!

Also you all know I've been a vegan for 5 years so the fact that this brand is 100% faux + animal friendly just makes my heart sing!! There is no need to use animals in our clothing, and I'm glad this brand is representing that standard.
