SUSTAINABLY SEXY

I've been incredibly busy partly because of school and partly of stress. I have my Senior Exhibition of Graphic Design this week, the opening on Wednesday was a success!! Our thesis has to be with a "green" theme. I personally DON'T like green design, because in this business, you sometime waste many versions before you reach the FINAL one — that's not being green!

So instead, I bought secondhand thrift clothes and had a high fashion-like photo shoot with my friend Kacey. Recycle old clothes — that's 1 way to be green! With my love for Graphic Design, Photography, and Fashion, I decided to combine 3 together. All clothes were $10 or less, except the shoes and accessories... BEING GREEN HAS NEVER BEEN SO GLAMOUROUS!
