the look
dressy utilitarian
my concept
useful, economical, modular pieces that can be mix-matched in numerous

succulents and other waxy flora
particular loves
bamboo, coral, moss, woodgrain, silhouettes & other cut-outs, plastic,
low-resolution images, the photo copier, off-registration prints, Max
Ernst's Lunar Asparagus, NYC fire call boxes that look like Kannon, Fauvist color sense, the Noguchi Museum,

favorite heel style
the wedge, but a sleek modern interpretation
second favorite
the stiletto
current shoe obsession
alas, the sneaker. (because I live in nyc and walk a ton!) but not too
sneakery of a sneaker. more of a sneaker disguised as a shoe, like a mary
jane style or a high-tech looking black one with a metallic accent. how
about Royal Elastics? I must go try some on. I really like the non-sneakeryness
of their styles.

  The Bryant Park Fountain, Thursday, January 7, 2010
Ice skating rink, Christmas tree & NYPL in the background
Beautiful!
Double-treat: I saw Bill Cunningham of The New York Times photographing this fountain at Bryant Park on Monday. Look at how beautiful it is! I had to take some shots of the same scene [above] a few days later. This time (my 4th sighting of Mr. Cunningham), I felt compelled to go over to him and tell him how much I love what he does. He is such a sweet man. Always on his bicycle, even on the icy cold days. *** Update, 3pm How cool is this? Mr. Cunningham's picture of the fountain in On the Street | Snowy on nytimes.com.
