Headed West

It was 9 years ago to the day that me and the man hitched up our wagon (Uhaul) and watered our trusty steed (my cat) and left Boston for LA. Our journey has been long and difficult, but not without great memories. Can't believe it's been that long!

Danse Serpentine

Loie Fuller doing the Serpentine Dance. This recording is from 1896! The changing colors that you see are done with stage lights. I love when dance meets costumes meets theater.

Take Me Away

 

Been over a year since I've traveled, and I find myself daydreaming about where to go next. Any of these remote spots would do me some good.

Gift of Amethyst

Today is my Parents' 33rd Wedding Anniversary! Yayy! Apparently Amethyst is the gift to give after 33 years! These would be my picks. ;)

Summer Sew-a-thon

My summer has been not much of a vacation. I'm not complaining though. Just wish my sewing machine looked as nice as this one. Or that I didn't look a hot-mess while doing it.

Soul Searching

Dance on My Mind

Bienvenue!

I know, I know... You're saying to yourself "Babykakes is on Facebook. And Twitter. And Myspace (still?). And Ustrendy, and Lord knows whatever else website is out there! Why is there now a Babykakes Blog?!?!"  Well, for sure, I'm gonna tell you.

As a fashion lover, and designer, I get bored visually and I do a lot of hunting on the web for beautiful and inspirational images to trigger the next design idea for Babykakes. Along the way, I find myself saving so many great images to my computer that I come across, that I just recently felt the need to share them. They are too pretty, too cool, and too funny not to. 

Facebook is reserved for business, Twitter for good news, and I usually forget that I have a Myspace account, but this blog will be a random collection of pics and videos that I come across in my daily visual journey to discover the extraordinary.

I hope you enjoy!
