Cuba Next?

The colors and textures of Cuba are so inspiring. 

Would love to go one day and experience what photographer Michael Eastman has captured.

In the meantime, we like Cubana Social in Brooklyn.

You See Your Gypsy

"So I'm back, to the velvet underground, back to the floor, that I love. To a room with some lace and paper flowers, back to the gypsy that I was. And it all comes down to you, well, you know that it does. And lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice, oh, and it lights up the night. And you see your gypsy, You see your gypsy." FM

Forget about Assouline's Gypset, this is the real deal. The images and subjects remind me a bit of Josef Koudelka's Gypsy images but in COLOR! Thank you to a special someone for surprising me with this book.

Sisters

Our mother has always been one of our greatest inspirations. As we've grown up, she's become more and more like a third sister to us. She too loves all things vintage, Native American, and a bit bohemian. At a recent tag sale in our CT neighborhood, she stumbled upon this amazing book. While its' content is eerily sexual, Sisters, by David Hamilton (published 1977), is a beautiful book filled with femininity and style. Below are a few sneak peaks.
