Something old something new and nothing goes to waste

I have my hand in so many designer/artist projects currently. First there is my solo company of Hair Accessories aka ANGEL LUST,which I am currently building a web store for by the lovely Mathew Noren my tea time buddy.

Then there is Angel Swan which is my line of accessories I design with Caycee Black. We use the scraps of fabric from production (nothing goes to waste) and we make beautiful head pieces that match and finnish her collection off to a T!!! Caycee is on the rise,she is def one of my best designer friends. Caycee is a dreamy southern gal packaged in sleek girlish style. We graduated Parson's together and plan to go places together on our fashion journey through time. This summer Caycee will be touring the US at the stores she has picked up,cupcakes and cocktails will be served to the best in house customers as they can shop and preview her collection first hand.



If you like any of our headpiece accessories email us at angelswanbows@gmail.com




This coming Fashion Week the lovely Jennifer Fein and I are musing together to create a fashion flower seed that will grow into a big beautiful long lasting fleur. What you ask am I talking about? We are working hard in our lofty studio and draping random vintage pieces on the dress form to create new ideas. We are taking Victorian collars and turning them into yokes,as well as taking skirt slips and making them into full length dresses while adding a vintage bra. We are draping over corsets and tutus to form something that is not so lingerie looking. We are inspired by the essence of femininity and all things ballet fairytale,Its safe to say there may even be a slight touch of Rock n Roll. Our fashion baby is Dark and Romantic in the same time.




This may be repetitive but its from our facebook note:

So once again me and my designer gal pals are planning a designer party exhibition part deux! The goal is to rework romantic vintage pieces into something new and innovative. This project is inspired by the works of the lovely Leah Michelle who lent us her garment from her senior thesis for the Angel Lust Cupcakes and Bows trunk show!!! This is a cooperative effort that will most definitely lead to something greater such as a company. Our first collection will serve as the root of what is to come...The pieces will be available to purchase at a very pretty penny. We will keep what does not sell in our archive for future design inspiration...




Right now we are hard at work in our studio located near the Hudson River which we love with a passion.

We look forward to hand picking pretty girls to exhibit our pretty dreams that will come true fashion week spring 2010!

My Weekend So Far,it started on Thursday

My publicist Erin Ryder spotted this a couple of days ago. Apparently The new Fame Game home page decided to use one of my photographs from my IloveShop.com trunk show party. Erin is a fantastic PR girl,she is perfect for young designers like me to hire for freelance work or on a more permanent basis. I've probably known her since I was nine so its fair for me to say she is all that and more!!!


This is Deanna Mara Nolesco she used to assist in PR work for me a little more than a year ago.





So the other night Catherine Pierce debuted her paintings at the Cameo Gallery which is located in the back of The Loving Cup Cafe. Wine was available as was The Pierce's singing along in harmony with "The Morning Pages",later on that night Paige Wood played an acoustic set.

I suppose it was 3 seasons ago when Alice and Olivia staged a show in their store and Paige Wood modeled for them,any how I found this accidentally on line take a look at vintage Paige LOL.

Best Compliment Yet!!!!

In my email via Facebook this morning: HEY PRETTY GIRL

Hope you had an amazing New Years! I've gotten a little addicted to your blog- you spotlight so many interesting people in it. When you have free time, lets make a date to conspire and illustration/headband swap-Molly CrabApple

Around October my party gal princess perfumer Jessica got me into night parties held at the notorious dinner party theater The Box. A couple of weeks ago I did an interview with Barbie doll look alike Ellen Stagg who introduced me to Molly Crabapple at LIT. I didn't know she was the chick who did all these cool illustrations I'd seen before of sex industry icons such as Justine Joli and the Porcelain Twinz!!!

I love knowing who my readers are. Apparently from all over the world now just look on the map to the side of this page and you can click on it to see which cities and countries have visited today. I have some very cool followers and I get amazed and oddly shy when I go out now and people know about this blog I started. Thanks for all you great followers for the comments that have been more active lately. I'm especially thankful to those who I've met in person but where featured here first.

YAY I'm going to get a Molly Crabapple original!!!!
