lost

"She thought about her life and how lost she’d felt for most of it. She thought about the way that all truths she’d been taught to consider valuable invariably conflicted with the world as it was actually lived. How could a person be so utterly lost, yet remain living?"

— Douglas Coupland, All Families are Psychotic

Man.. I wish I had an Afro hairstyle so badly.

working like a LUNATIC

Eveyday is the same to me... I don't see a difference between a Tuesday and a Friday or a Sunday. Being a freelancer, allows me to work whenever I want, regardless of the hour or the day; and most of my Sundays are spent in the working room. I've got my hands full right now.

LUNATIC is the name of my clothing label by the way.
Check out my designs on my facebook page HERE or etsy shop HERE.





Todos los días son iguales para mi; no veo diferencia entre un Martes, Viernes o Domingo. Creo que cuando eres freelancer/trabajadora independiente, puedes trabajar en el horario que desees, cualquier día sin importar si es fin de semana o no; y yo, me la paso en mi taller de diseño y costura la mayoría de los Domingos. En esas ando ahorita.

LUNATIC es el nombre de mi marca de ropa; muy pronto tendré mi tienda en línea andando, con envíos a todo México. Chequen mi facebook aquí.

black is the happiest color

see how it makes me smile.

fiction

"She always knew he was a fiction but believed in him anyway"

-Jonathan Safran Foer, (Everything is illuminated).

the honeyMOON babe

Here's a sketch I made for a swimsuit a client asked me to design and make.
She's getting married and wanted to wear a bridal-white bikini on her honeymoon, so I made the illustration, she loved it and then started sewing up the pieces and here's the final result.

I added some pearls and crystals on the back and as a detail on the front side too, within the straps that tie up the upper piece. And also added ruffles as you can see in the photos.

I hope she sends photos of her wearing it in that awesome honeymoon destination.

you

"You are terrifying, and strange, and beautiful. Something not everyone knows how to love."

metal detector

These are some of the latest pieces I've been working on.. the first ones are a bit minimalist and the last ones feature a chain headpiece with feathers on the end; I think I'll be adding them to my etsy shop.

What do you think?

Would you wear tiaras and headpieces?

I’m terrified that I will never be able to put him from my mind. I don’t love him but I’m afraid that he will make it impossible for me ever to love anyone else.
