pattern
As promised, here are some pics from the cool japanese fashion magazine I picked up, the february issue of SO-EN. The issue seems to be all about pattern and is entitled Textile File 2010. I’ll be pouring over this magazine for a long time. So much to absorb.

Not that I do that much better with the fancy one.)
It's still gloomy out and I'm still craving brights. Today's color therapy: looking back through the photos of the … More
