Art of Creative Living: Graffiti Series pt. 2

Leave a Comment

Finding the beauty in places people often overlook is part of what I do. When most people see these photos they never once think I’m in Paris, but in fact I am. You see, I was walking around and I noticed this amazing art all around on the walls and took an impromptu photo shoot and voila. It takes practice to start to be in the moment and find the true majesty that surrounds us. With practice, you too can start to look at the world with different eyes. Once you do this, you’ve unlocked something within that is nothing short of magic. Stay woke, haha.

When Ads Do Right

Leave a Comment

Seldomly do I find myself actually sitting through a complete ad. Mostly because I barely watch television, secondly in France they barely ever have ads running, so I’ve been saved. However, Desigual has always managed to create intriguing, inclusive and beautifully executed commercials. Some may remember when Winnie Harlow was chosen to front the Barcelona-based company’s fall 2014 campaign. Photo below:

Well, the good folks of the Spanish brand did it again, this time with an exceptional American ballet company which practices “hiplet” style dance. According to the website, “The Hiplet™ journey started with a ballet created in the early 90’s called “The Rap Ballet”. It was set to rap music where dancers performed the “running man” and other popular dances on point. Then in 2005, one of the dancers was booked with the UniverSoul Circus, and Artistic Director Homer Hans Bryant started to play around with different Hip-Hop moves which eventually led to the development and trademark of the Hiplet™ technique.” There you go folks, and here you go, below a video of the amazing dancers.

 

Gotta Love Big Things

This mug is everything, it practically covers my whole face, but it’s awesome. I love my tea and I love big, oversized things, mugs are def included. I’m just kidding, but I do love my tea. I got a hold of this mug during my time in Bretagne (Brittany), France. My time there was amazing. You have folks out there who own a ton of land and then hold these festivals in their background. They title them with crazy names and unfortunately I forget the name of the festival I went to. I do know the festivities went until 6 a.m. the next day and I partook in a majority of the fun. You can find out more of what went on in the travel section of my blog. In the meantime, enjoy me and this huge mug! haha
