Friday

golden hair.



i totally flipped when i saw this comb dress from martin margiela artisanal spring '09. i immediately cut it out of my wwd and pasted it on the 'this is awesome' page of my sketchbook.

i spent most of last night searching through job sites looking at available surface design positions and desired qualifications and i got so so excited and so so scared! i have a meeting with my advisor this afternoon to talk about my classes and just how i can learn everything i want/need to while i'm here in grad school. all this thinking about post-graduation has me wishing for some nice business cards to hand out to future employers...but what to put on it???

pattern enthusiast?
creative thinker?
color lover?
future surface designer extraordinaire?
i'm really nice and cool and i'll draw beautiful flowers and other stuff for you if you'd like?


hm, maybe that's too wordy.


{i forget
where i found
this best and
most thorough
business card
ever...}

frame the face.

everyone knows that aretha franklin's inauguration day hat was fierce and i've been seeing it popping up on various people's heads all around the internet. i found one small compendium of this mini-meme. here is my favorite:
