+ I am a Color ambassador, will you join me?

what is an ambassador? 

am·bas·sa·dor

amˈbasədər/

noun

1. an accredited diplomat sent by a country as its official representative to a foreign country.

   "the French ambassador to Portugal"

   synonyms:

   envoy, plenipotentiary, emissary, (papal) nuncio, representative, high commissioner, consul, consul general, diplomat;  archaiclegate "the American ambassador"

   • a person who acts as a representative or promoter of a specified activity.

     "he is a good ambassador for the industry"

     synonyms:

     campaigner, representative, promoter, champion, supporter, backer, booster

     
     

     
     

     A Color Abassador is an unconditional lover and representative of the visual spectrum. A color ambassador brings colors that are long forgotten back, less loved, or rarely paired, into the pallete of everyday life through their clothes, hair, style and belongings. 

     
     

     Some Color Ambassadors show their love of the spectrum by representing as many colors as possible simulteneously, letting their personal style be the canvas for inspiration and diversity. Some people epxpress their love of color with their car, or their make up. Others through art that they produce. 

     
     

     The natural world is the official Color Ambassador and we as it's children can only imitate the beautiful forests and oceans of hues and tones. The concrete jungle is rought with it's greys and blacks like a smog over what use to be green life. 

     
     

     "It's really the least we can do," says one Colorado color ambassador, "so many people overly represent the black spectrum, which is cool and metal and all, but the yellows and oranges and deep blues provoke so much more imagination and happiness, and that's what I try to do with my style. When I look like a rainbow threw up on me, it makes everyone happier"

     
     

     Many countries cultures have evolved to naturally welcome the ROYGBIV into their everyday life, while in america there is a large lack in ambassadors.

Introducing CARLEEN

by Lauren on April 23, 2013 on http://blog.arrowandarrow.com

We are very excited to introduce Carleen! All hand made one of a kind pieces made out of vintage quilts. SO amazing. We want every piece!!

“There is an element of the bare and the windswept in Carleen’s world, an allusion to the wide-open, sun-bleached California landscape that Kelsy explored as a child. For her, and for Carleen, it represents the potential for endless discovery.”

Shop CARLEEN here.

+ inspired

its so easy to spend hours online looking through cooking blogs, fashion, style, art, and that for me is tenfold times more rewarding than anything on television.  i am grateful for the positive creativity that is communicated online and know that while my realtime community is the real deal and most important, i get so many ideas and inspiration from creative creatures around the world that put their dreams and designs out there.  as a young girl who loves thrifting, costumes, burning man, and DIY fashion i decided to start cataloging outfits and clothing pieces that ive put together, altered, created ad a way to contribute, and be a part of that online community that i usually just look at rather than participate.  here are a couple photos for now.
