The Week in Pictures: 3.5.10

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Always and forever and ever. Another week, more of the same. Busy, work-packed, everything hitting all at once, multitasking to the max. April equals a vacation for sure. Vegas?

Issue #22 of POP Magazine is now out and the one page ad my brother and I collaborated on for the Swatch Colour Codes collection is featured. […]

What I Wore: 2.26.10 // Black & White

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

Modcloth sent me these Flipside Tights months ago and I kept forgetting to wear them. And, now that I have, I want to wear them with everything.

I am wearing Tiara loose eyeshadow by Sugarpill above. The photo does it no justice; it’s a super sparkly, intense Barabrella-esque silver that goes on with major impact. I’ve […]

The Week in Pictures: 2.26.10

Friday, February 26th, 2010

It’s been two weeks since I’ve had a chance to do a Week in Pictures update but a lot has happened in that time and I promise it’s worth the wait! The weather in Portland has been remarkably good. And, I’ve taken an absurd amount of photo booth pictures.

Over the weekend, Joey and I stopped […]

Swatch Colour Codes and POP Magazine Collaboration

Sunday, February 21st, 2010

A few months ago, I was contacted by POP Magazine and asked to participate in a special contest. Swatch, the iconic brand of watches that originally launched in 1983 (and have gone on to become the most successful wristwatch of all time) is going back to its roots by launching a series of monochromatic plastic […]

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

I hope all of you are having a great Valentine’s Day! I celebrated early last night since I have a full plate of freelance to get through today and this is what I wore out. It’s a vintage wool dress that I found on Ebay years ago and I wore the same thing last year […]

The Week in Pictures: 2.5.10

Friday, February 5th, 2010

Just Do It. I had a super awesome week working with a design team out at Nike. By day four, I was itching to get my security badge and made the trek to the other side of the campus in the rain. I arrived only to be told that the badge making machine was […]

The Week in Pictures: 1.29.10

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Details make a house a home. I am totally loving these serigraphs from House Industries which I finally got around to slipping into IKEA frames and setting against my matte black walls. All I can say is…I want more, more, more.

More jewels. I am still on a bit of a jewelry kick and Forever 21 […]

The Week in Pictures: 1.22.10

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Welcome to another installment of The Week in Pictures! I started off another week with no solid plans and in the end, it turned out completely magical. Weekend breakfasts, morning coffee in new neighborhoods, a surprise call from a makeup artist, a nonstop rotation of Kanye tunes, evenings in dive bars with red walls, […]

What I Wore: 1.19.10

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

When I woke up yesterday morning, I thought I had my day all planned out….until I got a 9 AM call from a M•A•C makeup artist who needed a model. Who can turn down trying out a new look?! Thanks to Amy Callahan at the Lloyd Center Nordstrom M•A•C counter in Portland. You can reach […]

The Week in Pictures: 1.15.10

Friday, January 15th, 2010

Wow, what a week! I finally got to see Cool as Ice again which is truly my favorite movie ever. One of my 2010 resolutions was to watch more movies because I’ve barely seen any in my lifetime and I’m trying to make up for lost time. Though Cool as Ice was the highlight, […]

The Flat Iron Diaries

Monday, January 11th, 2010

I am one of those people with fairly straight hair, but sometimes, fairly straight just won’t cut it. There are times where I want my hair to look perfectly sleek and in those moments, I reach for my flat iron.
Unfortunately, while I was vacationing in Florida back in November, my flat iron died quite suddenly. It’s […]

The Week in Pictures: 1.8.10

Friday, January 8th, 2010

Welcome to Wolfgang. Our house finally has a name: Wolfgang Manor. Honestly, my brother and I usually aren’t posed on the couch like this when people stop by to visit. We just did a shoot for a Swatch / POP Magazine collaboration and took a few extra photos with one of the setups.

Passports. My brother […]

The 2009 Recap: Nub Life

Friday, January 1st, 2010

If I could sum up 2009 in one word, it would be: insane. I’ve never experienced anything close to the extreme highs and lows the last year threw at me. It’s like my Saturn Return hit all at once. But, one thing I’ve realized this year is that life is too short to dwell on […]

The Week in Pictures: 1.1.10

Friday, January 1st, 2010

Happy New Year! I rang in 2010 very quietly but that’s okay because I had one of the best weeks ever leading up to it. When the week started, I had no idea what I was in for. I was still recovering from an epic Christmas Eve spent out on the town and Christmas […]

The ModCloth ‘Nubby Twiglet’ Dress

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

I have a special announcement to make….ModCloth just named a dress after me! What an epic way to end 2009! Of the dress, ModCloth says:
Named after one of our favorite fashion blogs, this little black dress will help you market yourself as a master of entrepreneurial style. Crisp, curving seams contour the bust and the subtly […]

The Week in Pictures: 12.26.09

Saturday, December 26th, 2009

White Room. My favorite room in our house is the ‘white room.’ My brother and I have been working on it for the last few months and it finally came together this week. We refinished the hardwoods, painted out the walls and woodwork matte white, bought a mod 60s couch and had it recovered […]

Thursday, December 24th, 2009

On Monday night, I was invited to be part of the Creating A Killer Portfolio panel discussion at PNCA (Pacific Northwest College of Art) and shared my experiences with creating a portfolio and building a freelance design business. The conversation was moderated by Kelly Coller, the founder of OFFICE PDX, a business specializing in portfolio […]
