Stranger than having a dress named after me is being barefooted in it on Seventh Street. This mornings’ photoshoot for a new brand of floral headbands was kind enough to let me play around a little bit in one of Ashton Miyakos’ latest creations endearingly named Michelle. Standing on a vintage suitcase on seventh street I played around with this camera (I can’t begin to tell you its exact name but it was authentically old) and tried to balance in the sunny coldness. Aside from the occasional stumbling character half awake at 11:30 am, It was thrilling to be in a floral blue and green sun dress in the middle of the city. There was grime and dirt and I didn’t wear shoes on the suitcase, and I didn’t have anywhere to go, but it was ok because I was wearing Michelle by Ashton and I felt happy inside.
