I Am Kindness.


art by Eva Falk

The mastermind behind I Am Minneapolis has done it again. I AM KINDNESS is a new group that performs random acts of kindness throughout the city. The goal is to spark inspiration, giving, and smiles. Currently looking for: MUA's, hairstylists, graphic designers, photographers + all-around good folks for the first random act of kindness. Inbox me if you're interested :) #iamkindness #payitforward

Opposites Attract.


outdoor photos by Matthew Sattler

jacket: bar III, dress: Zara, outpost ankle boots: c/o Free People, necklace: Zara, watch: Michael Kors, dufflebag: Herschel Supply Co. via Askov, sunnies: Karen Walker, rings: H&M

If you're wondering why I have two sets of photos for this outfit, it's because in reality - it's not quite nice enough to go bare-legged in Minneapolis just yet. Outdoor photos: real life, indoor photos: runway/hallway (ha). 

Love the cut-outs on these boots, they're a little reminiscent of Balenciaga and when spring decides to make its debut, I plan on wearing them with some baggy cut off shorts, a light button-up and an oversized blazer. For now though, I decided to mix things up by pairing the super cool but slightly grungy, worn-out booties with something overly girly(an A-line dress) to balance everything out.

Vintage Dresses + Vintage Cars.

dress: vintage, belt: Moschino, PVC heels: Marc Jacobs, men's document holder worn as clutch: H&M, watch: Michael Kors

Regarding this outfit I wore for the Dress Rehearsal Benefit, Mustache Mike of Midnorth Mercantile said it best,"Davee, was that you I saw wearing a dress the other week? It was nice." I really wanted to throw a baseball cap on this outfit though. #truestorybro

MNfashion: The Shows, Day 1


photos by Michael Dodes of Mill City Men

My favorites from MNfashion's The Shows Day 1 mainly consist of menswear, but I wouldn't mind getting married in Ivan Idland's cream concoction above (photos 7,8) or throwing the lace button-up over a bikini (photos 4,5,6). But what I'm obsessing over is Max Lohrbach's shredded leggings and top to match (photos 1,11). I've already requested the leggings to be made in "my special size". And I can't go without mentioning the appreciation I have for Nicole Larson's minimalism applied to her mostly men's collection (photos 9,10).

Serene Supreme.

Everyday I'm polaroidin' - seriously though. Was fortunate enough to be part of a cool polaroid project by Serene Enloe (top photo not a part of it). You can check out the project and my full set of photos/interview here. Some background information on Serene Supreme:

"a photo project that not only showcases her portraits, but introduces a new interesting person through Polaroids, a short Q & A, and links to the person’s work and/or art. A little anthropological and a little bit of fun."
