i’m a huuuge fan of specs…! thank goodness i have horrible vision, so i need them. although, i don’t wear my warby parkers enough. i hate not being able to use my peripheral vision if you know what i mean…

what’s not to love about this gorman look? the socks make this look so special.

i’m obsessed with all the gorman collections right now… they sure know how to keep things fun by mixing patterns, and using lots of bright colors!

Hermés Beginnings

January.25.2012 by paperfashion

oooh the days of being lost. i remember when i was first starting college, thinking i knew exactly what i wanted to be (an industrial designer). i guess i haven’t landed too far from that, but back then it was all very confusing.

i was always interested in fashion (obviously), but wasn’t quite sure how to go about it.

luckily, i scored an awesome opportunity after my freshman year, to intern at the flagship hermés store in nyc.

working at hermés, was magical! imagine being surrounded by orange boxes all day everyday, and being required to wear their scarves and perfumes. such an incredible experience. hermés is such a timeless and creative brand… have you seen their illustrations? it’s my dream to create an illustration for one of their scarves.

it’s funny looking back and connecting the dots… i remember when things were slow, i would sketch fashion drawings on post-it notes, or discarded hermés tags. one of the workers saw my drawings, and thought they were so great that he commissioned me to do two for his home.

hey, maybe that was the true beginning of paperfashion…
