MEI VINTAGE BLOG

This is my first blog post of 2015! How exciting! One of my goals this year is to spend more time blogging and share my creative process with you! I always feel like doing something more with my  pins  to help me with my creative process so here you go! Lately, I've been obsessing over nature inspired prints (both organic and abstract) with minimalist and dreamlike interruptions using textures such as paint brush strokes, motifs, and watercolor patterns just to name a few. 1/  Boro Asa , Textile  2/  Rikka Ayasaki  "Twlight" painting 3/ Ceil Touchon , Asemic Calligraphy 4/ Lee Ufan  "Line" painting 5/ Vintage Kimono, Unknown I've recently added few new kimonos to my personal collection with various abstract patterns and made few samples that will be part of the upcoming 2015 collection.  I'm really happy with the way it turned out so you’re getting a sneak peak here! Stayed tuned, I'll be rolling out fresh designs in the beginning of 2015! ...

I am excited to hear about the upcoming Target collaboration with Jason Wu !  Starting Feb. 5th (yay, only few days away) you can get your very own Jason Wu designer pieces at Target.  If you haven't heard by now, Jason Wu is a taiwanese-born and Manhattan-based designer that came to fame while designing First Lady Michelle Obama's gorgeous white dress. His cocktail dresses retail from $3,000 to $6,000 and daydress are from $1,000 to $4,000.  Some of Jason Wu's dresses have also been seen on celebrities like Meester, Amber Valetta and Kerry Washington.  Check out his current collection here .
