In the deepest Kinfolk Journal spiral this morning. Just beautiful, quiet photos that help spurn on internal desires for dinner parties and gatherings and solitary moments too (with a French Bulldog in there for good measure!).
Happy Long Weekend. Off to Portland, OR for hipsters, plaid, coffee and cocktails.
Someone nearest and dearest just gifted me a Jessica Craig-Martin (famed party circuit Vogue photog) print that so perfectly emblemizes my short career in the Big Apple that my heart burst when I ripped it open. Gold shoes, gluttonous desserts, champagne and just a little bit of controlled chaos. Truly, what a ride it’s been so far.
Anyway, this limited edition print is from 20x200, the impossibly perfect art for all site that sells prints in all sizes at all price points. Above is a smattering of other pieces available on the site. I’ve been following the company for a couple of years now, and it’s been a pleasure to watch as they gain traction in the media and as they expand the capabilities on their website.
If nothing else, it’s a treat to stare at beautiful (and affordable!) prints for a bit every once in a while. Or, in my case, everyday.
You know, I see pictures like this, and I can’t help but wonder where all the implicit glamour and grace of the mid-1900’s has gone off to. Since when has laughing in a lounge chair looked this coiffed and regal?
Do I just need to start having myself photographed ONLY in black & white? That seems like an easy solve. Or perhaps, always smoking slender cigarette holders when set against a background of red gingham tablecloth?
