title: lyrics from the smashing pumpkins' "today"
Today was such a beautiful day...high 60s and perfectly sunny.
I walked around the city and ate frozen yogurt in the park.
"A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart, leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective." - Irving Penn (1917-2009)
Jumelle, a clothing store in Brooklyn, seems like an awesome store. I've not been lucky enough to visit in person, but their website selection is fabulous. It's a high-end store, so many of the pieces are fairly pricey...but even the items that are far out of my reach are still nice to look at and gather inspiration from. Above are some of my favorites.

...Some inspiration. No cohesion. Beautiful photos nonetheless.
Viktor & Rolf spring 2010 rtw -- like a Henry Moore sculpture, this collection seems to highlight negative and positive space. While these dresses may not be wearable for many, I have to admit that I am intrigued by them. They are certainly memorable and bold, reminiscent of great architecture. I cannot stop looking at them. What do you think?
