Lanvin For H&M

A collage I did on paint, was fun. :D
My fav dress, is the yellow one, I love it so much, it just pops out, I love the ruffles and yellow is my fav color! :D
I love the collection, I loove all those ruffles on the dresses. Sadly, I won't be getting my hands on any of them :/ It's expensive for me. -.-

These are all the clothes I love/like from the Lanvin for H&M collection.

1. I love the idea of the shirt, mainly around the neckline, soo cute!  $49.95

2. Love the colors, the ruffles at the top part of the dress, and love the layers on the bottom part. $199

3. Cute dress, love the sheer(?) skin tone color, with the jewel stones on it, just a cute simple dress. $199

4. LOOOVE THE FABRIC!!! It just says FUUUN TO IT, at least to me! :D I just love everything about the dress! ♥ $199

5. I love asymmetric dresses, I love all the work on the top area of the dress. $199

6. MY FAAAAV!!!  The color captures my eye, also the black belt. Because if it didn't have the black belt, and it was just yellow, I don't think it would have gotten my attention that much. And I love the ruffles, as I said before. :) $199

7. Love this, love the color, & love the ruffles at the sides of the dress, it's just pretty when you move around in the dress, because the ruffles are loose and it moves along in movement ♥. $199

8. I don't know what they're called, but it looks like flower petals on the dress. $149

9. Love the fur vest, love the type of the fur and the silk or satin fabric around the neckline & down the vest. $99
10.Love this dress, though, I don't know if I like the fabric much, it looks a little cheap? But I love the folds of the dress, I love the design of it. :) $199

11. I like the dress, it kind of gives off a 80's feel to me, the shoulders/arms area. $99

12.Love the fur and the color of it. The fur coat gives off a military inspired feel, I think it's the buttons? 
When my twin saw the fur coat, she said, "OH MY GOD! points @ the coat and says with excitement, "I LOOVE THAT!! I could just sleep in it!" LOL!!! I LOOVE MY TWIN! She's so cute & funny. :D ♥ $199

13. LOOVE THIS SKIRT!! I love the white skirt better than the black one, because with the white, you can easily see the folds on the skirt. Just so beautiful to me. :) $59.95

What I love from the Runway Show. :)
I love this, love the brown bow on top of the dress
 Love the dress, and the cheetah tights!
 Love her hair! ♥
 Love the dress, tights, and the necklace♥
 Loooove the tights!! ♥♥♥
 Love this, love how they stylized the outfit♥

painted people3 Still Life by Alexa Meade

Alexa Meade is a 23 year old D.C. based artist who is developing an aesthetic that is playfully and skillfully combing paint, portraiture, and performance. The finalized work is one that is beautifully engaging, temporary and colorfully alive. The initial experience feels a touch kitchy with it's aesthetic trickery but once past understanding the illusion the work is quite alluring. Make sure you check out the video that illustrates the painting process and how the personality and background of the model is integrated into the creative process. All encompassing, kicking ass, taking names.

A Tribute to Christopher R. Al-Aswad

A Tribute to Christopher R. Al-Aswad


A Tribute to Christopher R. Al-Aswad

Posted: 31 Oct 2010 08:23 PM PDT

Entered into life July 16th 1979 -
Escaped into life July 27th 2010


When Chris set up this Online Arts Journal just a little over a year ago, he dedicated it to his late mother, the artist Rosalind Al-Aswad.

Shocked by his untimely death, his bereft family and followers feel that an appropriate way to honor Chris's vision is to keep his beloved journal going. Escape into Life is now also dedicated to Chris, its inspiring and charismatic founder. It is his legacy and also, we hope, his enduring monument.

In the last incomplete essay that Chris wrote before his passing, he explored his dream of blending visual and litereray arts through this online journal. Though unfinished and almost in note form, Chris's distinctive voice shines through. It is reproduced below, incomplete as it was found.

When Visual Art Becomes Poetry

The complex inter-relationship between literary art and visual art is like an enigma to me.

This is not an intellectual puzzle I'm trying to figure out in my early 30′s. This is my life. This is what Escape into Life, online arts journal, embodies: the fusion of two types of media; art and literature; and the urge to discover what happens when a journal allows both forms to meld and grow as an organic whole.

pEscape into Life aims to explore, enmesh, and mostly, to uncover the core similarities of the two through the growth and development of technology, community, and inquiry.

At the most basic level, there's poetry and there's visual art; separate and distinct forms of artistic expression. Nonetheless–the history of visual art and the history of literature reflect each other to such a degree that it would seem visual artists and poets are made from the same

It's more like an intuition has grown over the years. Undoubtedly, my parents, my upbringing, my talents and lack thereof, contributed to these two equally strong influences in my life. Mixed exposure to both literary and visual art.

Escape into Life, online arts journal, is basically a new media experiment to blend, meld, mesh, mingle, interrelate, bind, juxtapose, and interpenetrate the two forms of art.

The best comparison is to a scholar or a scientist who comes to discover that their life-work revolves around a single theme.

Of course, there is reason for my interest in this subject of art and literature; and how they remain separate and distinct and yet intricately enmeshed. My mother was an oil-painter, I was exposed to art at an early age, and I was brought up in her creative shadow.

–and a life-long exploration of mine–that fuels the very online arts journal you are reading right now, called Escape into Life.

I have no philosophy or common goal I wish to convert our readers to. There is no academic bent or political ideology behind this journal.

Escape into Life pushes the boundaries of visual art, literature, and poetry.

Poems by Chris Al-Aswad


The Pleasures are Fleeting


the pleasures are fleeting,
on some days you're wondering
if they even exist
but in the slow station
of all our lives, a moment of being
comes and goes, lingers for awhile
out of a plateau, pleasures rise
this wondrous hot spring
fills you with momentary delight
and even the thoughts you are thinking
echo with reason and brilliance
and even the coffee tastes incredibly rich
so you want more of the experience
and less of the waiting, I suggest
a simple remedy, I suggest
breathing, maybe taking a break with me
on the pier, we'll sit and listen to
the waves crash


p

The Swan of my Youth


I awoke in the middle of a summer night,
To see her resting outside my window,
Reposing on a patch of lilacs, crashed
Flowers under her sparse plumage, looking out-of-place,
And out-of-time, depleted after many summers
Of migrating between the many lakes,
Searching for food or friendship or refuge from
The ill-tempered geese.
Unfurling her long neck, she assumed the pale moon,
And conveyed her solemn song with dignity.


My mother painted a self-portrait
That now hangs in my apartment,
I am staring at that painting now,
Remembering how, in her final days,
She retreated into her room,
And held herself there--above all of nature--
Without the taint of fear.
I remember when I rushed into her room, crying
How she poised herself,
Without a single feather stirring.

Anxious child beating in my heart


the anxious child beating in my heart is you furious whirling child of discontent and love you disentangle with grace never losing touch with unmistakable anguish you fall belatedly to the bottom of the world

a cycle will remake you as a cycle broke you down and all your thoughts about the world won't matter

i'm young again with you i'm blind and naked and undefeated anxious child come dance with me

what are you afraid of only lovers speak this way what are you running from timid infant on a wave

the dark engulfing world will cower behind you and me

Podcasts by Chris Al-Aswad

In addition to his Blog of Innocence podcast, Chris started a YouTube channel in 2008 to explore and share what he had learned through his life experiences. Among the topics he wanted to talk about were poetry, philosophy and writing. In the video below, Chris talks about the characters in Dead Souls, a Russian novel by Nikolai Gogol.




The following is an excerpt Chris wrote in his own handwriting, from Ode: Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood by William Wordsworth.







From all of us who follow and love Escape into Life, thank you Chris, for everything.
