paradox

this past sunday was university of hawaii's annual fashion show and i was asked by misha, one of the designers, to model for her segment! it was such a blast watching everyone chaotically assemble everything into an epic showcasing of student work. misha's "alpine high tea" collection was so beautiful. her hard work and effort over the months paid off as everyone admired the intricate and well-executed looks coming down the runway. my outfit was part of the denim category which was required by each of the senior designers. the jacket i wore was made of bleached, SHREDDED denim. emphasis on the shredding because misha devoted hours to that beauty. did i mention that she spent a few hours every night weaving the friendship bracelets and necklaces for each of the looks? talk about dedication. my lipstick-gone-mad look is supposed to suggest that i "ran off into the woods and ate a whole bunch of berries" according to my attending make-up artist deena (just in case you thought otherwise).  i'm a little biased....but misha's collection was BY FAR my favorite. so thank you misha for asking me to be a part of this.
