Saratoga


We went to the races in Saratoga, New York with a group 
from my school, Parsons, and it was a great time, 
perfect weather, incredibly beautiful horses and it was 
really exciting watching the races-the horses were flying 
and I loved the jockey's outfits.

Wear it like a scarf or wear it like a vest, it's sleek and chic!

Roxy Paine


I love the Metropolitan Museum of Art and today I was lucky enough
to be on the roof garden.
Roxy Paine's sculptures are extraordinarily
beautiful and I found them very inspiring.


The tree like sculpture fits in so well with the green of Central Park
and I have some new
ideas percolating for some new designs.
