It turns out that the world really does look like this. Everyday when my friends in Maui turn off their neighborhood road they are confronted with this view. Stunning, especially with the power lines and the houses and the perfect light and the million flavors of green. So good.
I look at catalogues like Michael Kors or Neiman Marcus and I scoff, but really, I don’t. I scoff for my parents or whoever is trying to tell me that $1700 is too much for whatever it is. I know that. But I know, I just know, that those designers are looking for five of these million shades of green, and for that I love them. I believe them that they are working to create this moment in a dress or a shirt. They are placing a very high value on the effort to extract and convey the importance of our paying attention to the beauty that is right here. If I can’t see it coming off Okawa Drive in Maui then I can pay for it at the Prada boutique, but no matter how I get it, it is worth soaking in. Soak in this, my best effort for beauty, for my promise to stay present with “Green”. That is what I hear when I see the ridiculous fashion catalogues. Love it.
Mon dieu! Breathtaking…
A whole other way to look at fashion and the high cost…..
Amazing image!
