big mama and some brave men • etsy seller love

brave men run in my family... brave women too.

here's big mama with cubist literature's lovely monster sewing machine patch. i saw the shirt while browsing his etsy store and knew i had to have one (or two). i hit him up for a custom request for some patches and he got back to me and had them ready that very same day! how's that for service?!

craig is a former texan/knitting/printing/sewing type of man who now resides in brooklyn where he crafts up things from his irrational imagination.

for more lovely c.lit inspiration check out his website, etsy store or flickr.

flippin' gorgeous day!

leslie and i spent a completely gorgeous morning at a friend's beach house. i have a new appreciation for the atlantic ocean.

we thought we saw dolphins but then found out they were actually tarpon (thank goodness we didn't try and go swimming with them)

the water was so calm and clear we could see our toes! i felt like i was in the bahamas for a minute.

we stopped by the cooyah headquarters to see homer and the guys. they were swamped (as usual). we put ourselves to good use taking risque photos with the mannequins (not suitable for this blog ;o) )

then i saw something very disturbing...

headless children planters....
cuz someone thought it would be cute if there were planters in the miami neighborhoods that looked like headless children running around with plants stuffed in their chests?!? wha?!?!

the house of mouse • mufyn's etsy find of the day

i have been a big fan of the house of mouse for a while now. really now, how could you not be?

mice have held a special place in my heart ever since we got our own pet mouse, spottie.

these fabulous critters are meticulously crafted by anna in her amsterdam abode.

they sing, dance, knit, love, fight evil enemies, make potions, dj, belly dance, impersonate elvis, help sick people, are superheros and are simply fabulous!

craft your lunch

my family and i made a lovely lunch together today.

brown rice cooked with garbanzos.... add sesame oil, dulse flakes and braggs...... i shaped it with a little triangle mold i got from my friend naomi of puchimaiko. she makes the best onigiri imaginable. put a bottle cap in the mold after you add the rice and when you press it you'll have a perfect hole to fill with a store bought pesto.

simple salad of romaine, avocado, sprouts and homemade hummus.

side of peas (cuz i accidentally opened them thinking they were garbanzos) we never have peas?!?!

after 3 boys.... it's a GIRL!

and you can imagine what that means.

i have a feeling everyone who knows the happy family will be pullin' out all the stops in the pink department.

i sent a stack of vintage trim ragamufyn onesies home with her son as a quick surprise.

oh..... GIRL!

morning

i got to spend some rare time alone today on the beach.

hot sun and a cool breeze are really all that's needed to put me in a good mood.

mufyn and the liberace of yoga

i stopped by the new i love yoga world headquarters after teaching my theatre class today. the space is huge and undergoing gargantuan transformations right now. it will house their workshop, sewing studio, screen printing studio, store, offices, yoga studio, shipping and receiving, and conference space. moses aka the liberace of yoga and founder of i love yoga and i took a couple quick shot on my way out the door.

miami art space

my friend leslie, the superstar ragamufyn model, and i went out on the town this weekend hitting up a few art parties around the design district and wynwood.

the miami art space we came upon this groovy space filled with giant inflated balls by the magical miami artists friends with you.

i want some in my living room.

adorable shopper.

this adorable little shopper was at the store tonight having herself a fabulous time with all the little ragamufyn dresses. almost all the pictures i took of her were blurry cuz she was fast like the wind.

having a panty fixation

as it turns out, my panty fixation has turned into something more.

it all started one day when i was tired of my underpants (hehehe) and decided to try my hand at making my own panties. why not?! i make practically everything else.

so i got down to it. i picked through my stash, found the perfect knits, drafted a pattern and voila! panties! they were marvelous.....

but then......

i thought well, hey. if i just cut them a bit more generous a girl could totally rock these on so many different occasions. just think..... with a cape and some pink fishnets. at the beach, yoga class, well, pretty much anywhere in miami. it really wouldn't surprise me to see them walking down the aisle of my nearest publix.

after all that thought i knew i needed to complete the outfit with a matching yoga bra top.

it's hot. and should be available soon at the local store or my etsy store or maybe both.

ragamufyn photoshoot!

i gathered up all the lovely ragamufyn ladies and headed out for a mufyn flavored photo shoot!

these fine fine gals rocked out the ragamufyn style and made me happier than a girl in a fabric store with a black american express card.

the fabulous graffiti wall we used as our backdrop was painted by none other than lady pink, an old school brooklyn graffiti artist and a fine fine lady.

we had a completely fabulous day, so fabulous in fact that i will use the word 'fabulous' more than three times in one blog post.

it was that good.

check out my flickr for more shots from the day.

viva la ragamufyn!
