LATTES + LIPSTICK

Oh I know. I've been gone a bit. Changed my URL--that didn't work--and changed my image. Now the image change I love. I am not giving that up unless Kelly Cuthrone herself tells me my new look isn't working. I had to return to my old URL and Blogger Platform. Wordpress and I just were not getting along. Not to mention, I missed my blogger-ites.

A lot has happened since the last time you heard from me. Lattes and Lipstick© became a brand that supports women in the arts all over the world, creating a new definition for the word 'feminist.'

I moved to Daejeon, South Korea to teach English for a year--you know I am always on an adventure.

Learning to draw for future design projects.

Before, I could only draw stick figures

Freaking out over the price of things like strawberries:

12,800 = $12 for some freaking strawberries and don't get me started on the price of Watermelon

AND I bit the bullet and have done something that I have always wanted to do. Design. I am launching my S/S 2013 Jewelry Collection--Serica Via this month and I am excited. There is something amazing about creating and putting yourself out there. It's scary and exhilarating all at the same time. And I am excited about giving you a preview of some my favorite pieces so far--I am still designing.
