time flies when you're having fun

skirt: forever 21, shoes: chanel

photos: DJ

as we get ready to move into may, all i can think of is graduation and my birthday. i was never really big on my birthday, for some odd reason. but this year, i'm turning 24 (almost freaking out at that number), and i will be moving in the next few months. so i figure this year i should go all out for my birthday, and party like a rock star.

my boyfriend, DJ, took these pictures of me last year on my birthday. its so hard to believe how quickly time flies, and how so much can change in a year. i've lost some things and gained a lot in return, and these things i am really grateful for. if my year at 23 was this good, i can't imagine how 24 will be.

p.s. does anyone have any great birthday ideas???? <3

chris levine, renowned light artist, collaborated with grace jones at his new exhibit, "stillness at the speed of light", at the vinyl factory gallery in london. levine works with laser light, 3D images, and led light, which makes his work groundbreaking and stand out against the crowd. beng that grace jones is such an amazing icon, this is definitely a must-see exhibit

backseat love

source: dazed and confused, hypebeast

so since i'm moving soon, i'm looking to re-vamp my furniture and do a complete make-over for my soon to be LA home. being that i'm in a home decorative kinda mood, i thought it would be fun to post these. my "boo"(wishful thinking) pharrell williams, designed a set of chairs, inspired by love and war, which is easy to assume being that these seats are nicknamed "love" and "tank". these chairs are being presented at the emmanuel perrotin gallery in paris (wish it was my home). even though i'm more of a lover and not a fighter, i do love the creative vibe these chairs give off and the creativity of my "boo"(wishful thinking again) <3
