my friends are talented.

  

My friend Scott Kaplan {photographer, videographer, Communikey documentarian} and I shared a few ideas about life, vision, and the pursuit of creativity in an otherwise disengaged culture (...we shared those things and a few old fashions in front of a faux fireplace at Scofflan). With so many ideas swarming in our brains, I decided to take him to the Bloomingdale Trail (a non-running elevated train track that runs for miles above the streets of Chicago). So these were the amazing shots that Scott took that night. He is really so talented. Check out his videos here. Love him.

HOLY SHIT! I'M STILL ALIVE!

No, silly, I didn't kick the can...I moved! That's right, I'm still breathing and walking, talking etc. So wipe that sweat off your brow and take a look at what's happened since I last wrote you birdies!

Since last we spoke, I thought to myself, "Hmmm, and then...ummm, how do I say this...I simply don't have time for you in my life."


WHO AM I KIDDING? I LOVE SHARING MY LIFE WITH YOU PEACHES! I promise from now on, we will continue to be in contact. annnndddd, apologies for my flighty nature. I am an artist you know...a terrific storm.

things this week....

I know people...Sam Ng is one of them.

This is Sam Ng. He is a fashion stylist in Chicago. He has a ridiculously amazing collection of baseball caps, some that he has embellished himself, others that he has found thrifting. Speaking of thrifting, we ran into one another at the thrift store the other night after we had both gotten off of work. I thought "Sam" when I bought this fake Gucci sweatshirt into my work (apparently, there are a few out there...ahem...Keisha Davis). We both own the very same matching faux Chanel silk starter jackets (unintentional). And he came back from LA a few weeks ago with a hunger for Tommy Hilfiger and other 1999 brands. He definitely brings fresh off the presses styles to the kids of Chicago. I heart him. He rules. End. Of. Blog. Post.

CP and me these days....
