Busy Changing the World

So Busy Changing the World...

There is a certain type of love in the universe that makes you feel like you can change the world. Being a realist romantic, and listening to Jack Johnson on repeat all day, I am experiencing this type of love right now, in this very moment. When I woke up and realized that such love is real and tangible, I feel like I can change the world. I am in the 11th month of my life reinvented and I have never felt so loved... and so alive. 
This said "love" that I speak of is not the romantic, I can't live without you love, but rather the we are free to go out into the world and create the world inside your head. Go out there and make all your dreams come true, kind of love. 

Be Open To Whatever Comes Next...

I remember reading this quote last year and thinking to myself, "Yes, I am ready. I'm always ready for whatever comes next." But it wasn't until I turned 30 that I realized that this now has another meaning to me. I now see it with different eyes.  When I opened my heart to the unknown I suddenly became happier and more inspired. Not only in my work, but in my personal life as well. I feel that I am now taking more risks in my work. My designs are going through a metamorphosis. I am excited to share them with my readers very soon.

Look into your heart...and you'll find Gratitude

Christmas is fast approaching and I am beginning to feel the holiday cheer.  Six months ago, my friend and I where given an amazing opportunity to open a cart at UTC in La Jolla.  After careful consideration we agreed to the terms and opened up shoppe.
Here we are towards the end of our journey and I am filled with so much joy and gratitude. All thought I can't wait to work from my home studio again and have dinner with my family every night, there are some much that I will miss from my time here:

1. All my new friends that I made at The Walking Company, Gap, Love Tatum and management.
2. People walking in just to touch and reminisce about the time when their children where babies.
3. My friends from Starbucks and the Apple store
4. Getting all the fun deals at the Gap
5. Having my brother visit me for lunch
6. Having the opportunity to join the Little Italy family
7. Seeing babies walking around the mall wearing my little creations and hearing their moms say how many compliments they got for them.
