Tami et les Garra Rufa


Hello!

Pour mon premier post, je vous propose une sortie beauté des pieds chez Tami, un petit salon sur Duluth! Ok, pas très original me direz-vous...sauf que...votre pédicure va être effectuée par des petits poissons, des Garra Rufa, qui rendront vos petits petons doux comme de la soie!
Une expérience peu commune que de plonger ses pieds dans un aquarium pour un polissage toute en finesse (les Garra Rufa n'ont pas de dents, précision non négligeable!!).
Vous n'aurez plus qu'à vous détendre dans un fauteuil massant pour la suite du soin et choisir parmi la multitude de couleurs de vernis OPI ou Essie qu'ont à vous proposer Tami ou Jenny! 
Reste à préciser que les manucures sont tout aussi réussies!
Vous laisserez-vous tenter par un soin aussi atypique qu'efficace?

outfit of the day!






Outfit of the day! Perfect for the hot weather and going out at night!

Jumpsuit by Barila, it has a bandeau top that covers the front and exposes the back, it can be dressed up and dressed down - whichever you prefer! It is an incredibly versatile piece, which is great. 

Necklace by Miju. 

Bag by Ashley Watson, it is made with recycled leather. These bags are prepared with heart and soul, and are very sturdy. No Ashley Watson bag is alike, so you are guaranteed to have an original piece. 

Scarf by Eve Gravel, also made with recycled materials, also a very unique piece. Convenient for when you are walking around at night and need something to keep the night time chills off your neck! 

Well, it is a beautiful day and I hope everyone is enjoying the wonderful weather!!!

Ciao!

Growing Up by Patrick Tsai & Coley Brown at The Emporium Gallery.


Growing Up at the Emporium Gallery
3035 St. Antoine Ouest #74
Opening on Thursday, July 30th from 7-11pm
Also open Sat, August 1st + Sun, August 2nd from 12-5pm
Private viewings available by appointment from Mon, August 3rd to Wed, August 5th 2009


About Growing Up-
Growing Up is an ongoing collaboration between Tokyo-based photographer, Patrick Tsai and NYC-based photographer, Coley Brown. Documenting this lifelong act, which they have done across the world, their exhibition features candid photographs of personal moments that are both intimate and magical. The outcome is a mesmerizing survey of growing up- one of life's most universal experiences.
growing--up.blogspot.com

Artist Statement-
"Growing Up was spurred by a spontaneous scene we witnessed together at Shibuya station in Tokyo, Japan- where two high school girls were leaning against a wall, one was crying while the other was trying to comfort her. Even though they were surrounded by a city of millions, they were the only ones that existed for that brief moment. The photograph we took of them that day eventually became the genesis of our project, a project whose intention was to document and explore the inevitable process of growing up."

About Patrick Tsai
Patrick Tsai was born in America in 1981. After graduating from the film program at NYU, he moved to Taiwan to practice photography. Three years later he met Chinese photographer, Madi Ju and moved to China. Together they started the online studio/photo diary, 'My Little Dead Dick' which obtained cult status and was thereafter shortlisted at the 2008 Hyere’s festival. After his break up with Ju, Patrick moved to Tokyo- where he now resides. His work has been featured in various publications such as Vice Magazine's Annual Photo Issue and Foam Magazine.

About Coley Brown
Coley Brown was born in Louisiana in 1987. At age 19, he moved to New York City where, for the next two years, he traveled the USA assisting photographers such as Ryan McGinley. His work, the result of his constant traveling and exploration of the world around him, recently resulted in 'Jam Jelly Honey Wild Rice'- his first monograph and, his first solo exhibition in Osaka, Japan.
