I’ve always loved this quote…it reminds me of something my mom used to say. She used to tell us that when we were doing something, to make it hurt – to put in every ounce of effort we had, even if it hurt, because then you know you really gave it your all. Read More
Always look for the extra in the ordinary, go beyond the norm and think deeper and a whole new world will appear. Never just look, examine, discuss, and open your imagination. Read More
UPDATE: This post previously ran on October the 15th but because our Mom’s are always a huge inspiration to us we have brought it back.
For the second post in the Our Moms series, I asked our assistant designer for color and print and FP Julia what they loved about their moms and their fashion style. The photos are beautiful, nostalgic and inspiring. Here’s our mom’s, an inspiration part two. Read More

Tattoos have been on my mind lately…I am starting to think about my next one and gathering inspiration from various sources. But one place I am definitely looking for inspiration is right here in our office! There are so many amazing tattoos that constantly catch my eye around the office, and I’m sure I’m just scratching the surface…(no pun intended). I thought it was really cool how the triangle on the left above caught the light in this photo, while the dark, filled in triangle was more shadowed. Read More
Looking back through old holiday photos, we all probably have something in common: the Ugly Christmas Sweater. These days it has become more of a joke but back when I was a kid we were serious when we wore those gaudy, brightly colored sweaters with giant reindeer or snowmen on them.
