Sleepwalkers...




* a few weeks ago, Marie-Eve tagged me: "Open the 6th picture folder on your computer, open the 6th photo and blog it. Write something about it. Then tag 6 more people to do the same."
*so....maybe 4 or 5 years ago (on a chelsea gallery rooftop)...i met a lovely french artist/filmmaker by the name of fiorenza menini. she was visiting nyc for a few weeks and asked if she could make two short films with me (mais oui!!)...one of the films was called "corridor" and the pics above are from that shoot....oh and i must mention that the very talented elizabeth cannon loaned us the dress!
*i will tag 6 bloggers this week...

Flip flop you're it...




*this afternoon around 4ish i took a stroll with my almost 3 year old and it was the first time in weeks that we didn't need hats...mittens...scarves...it wasn't freeeeezing but it wasn't any where near the sunglasses/flip flop/rolled off the beach vibe of the pics above! a bit of heat beating on my back would feel delicious right about now. i'll have to hang with tea, warm baths and my cozy bed/husband.
