EYE TRAVEL


Eye am a avid collector of vintage luggage with a 
special fondness for Samsonite.
Eye travel, decorate and carry my art pieces in vintage luggage
of all kinds.

Recently, eye was faced with investing in a new travel piece and eye chose a new Samsonite case.  
It's the Jetlite DLX in the color WHITE...like snow.
Now eye know a lot of people shy away from white but not me
and not this case.
It's ergonomic design makes it easy to use and clean.



The Jetlite DLX is also equipped with a TSA approved locking system, Travel Sentry, which allows the 
TSA to identify, inspect and re-lock my case for peace of mind.
Eye picked this beauty up from my local 
TJ Maxx store.


Indiana (Feb 2014) was the 1st trip eye took with my new and lovely piece of Samsonite 
and eye'm pleased to report so far so good.

GOODWILL HUNTING


All of my followers on Instagram
know how much Parker and eye
 vintage shop to fill our wardrobes 
with unique items and accessories.

Parker mentioned that eye 
needed some harem pants
4 my wardrobe and eye have been on 
the hunt ever since.
Eye finally found this lovely jumper.



It's a white 1980's Harem Jumper 
eye picked up from the Goodwill 
4 only $5.49.

Back in the day they were also referred to as 
"Balloon" pants.

Harem pants are usually made 
of soft fabrics,
have full legs and gather at the ankle.  
The modern version of harem pants 
was popularized
in the 80's by MC Hammer and became know as
"Hammer Pants".  




Everyone wore them and if you were heavy into the club scene 
 back in the day, 
you wore your Hammer Pants!

Eye styled my Harem Jumper 
with one of my favorite
neck pieces by Tomoko Igarashi 
that eye have had for years.



Eye wore this look
to the Dallas launch party 4
One Ajile Foundation
on May 17th.
The launch and my jumper 
were huge hits.
