Symphonies

This recent shoot (altho i left a few of the images out) featuring Devon Aoki really caught my eye. It's both creepy and strangely beautiful, ethereal and disturbing.



I love it.

RIP McQueen.  Heard about his death yesterday and I couldn't be more upset. The man was a visionary, a true standout. Rest assured the fashion world will mourn his passing for a long time to come.

Also I received awards from Jennifer and Cristi, who both have awesome blogs I've been following for some time. Thank you guys so much, you put such smiles on my faces. Once again though I have difficulty picking bloggers, I always feel like I leave so many out! So i dedicate these awards to my readers again. Thank you for taking the time to check out my blog :) I'll get to all the comments tonight!

xo,

Liya

    Devon is an interesting model and I often think the editorials with her could be a step away from the usual - she has the kind of profile and image that should really be experimented with. It's nice to see her in something so atmospheric.

    <3 McQueen Forever. I still haven't really let it sink in.

    These are incredibly captivating. I love the atmosphere, very mysterious without being cliche. RIP McQueen, I can't really imagine the fashion world without him, he was extroadinary.
