This Saturday, on the way to my parent’s house, I stopped at this “Texas Chain Saw Massacre” style barn, that for some reason, I kind of loved. It was already abandoned and equipped with two rusted tricycles to add to the creepy effect. Regardless, it was up for demo, as the entire area has some pretty major housing remodels going on, so I had to take advantage. ...
All Patched Up
What started as my Valentines gift to myself, turned into a full blown love affair. My MSGM jacket is my absolute favorite new piece for spring. The quilted composition and patchwork design literally blew my mind when seeing it up close. I know it's quite loud, which also make it that much more exciting to me. Having one piece, that has enough personality to balance a whole outfit, makes pairing this jacket simple. Although, my all black enable is an easy choice for such a bold statement, I ...

If you are even feeling like walking on the edge this spring, pair olive with your favorite pastel, you might start to ...
Candy Stripe
Today is the 3rd day of lent and I've decided to give up refined sugar and white flour. I won't say it has been hard, but I will say that I have had quite the sweet tooth. There have been so many articles, related to the harmful effects of sugar, this past year and I really want to nip the 'sugar bug' right in the bud. I don't eat overly sugary foods, but I do indulge every now and again. It's actually quite frustrating giving up sugar and noticing how much sugar is in all our everyday foods ...
Rush Hour
I have recently been working with a NYC photographer and good friend, Brandi Schaffran-Webb, owner of Alexis June Weddings. Introduced by my sister way back when Eleventh & Sixteenth needed a logo (she also does amazing graphic design), she has been my creative design outlet for my blog. I can't want to show you all the work we did together. ...
