i’m a girly girl, jealous?

So you may not be a fan of pink, but its certainly hard to resist being enamoured with this dainty color.

I’ve gone through my phases (haven’t we all?) and throughout high school I scorned those who listened to pop music and was very attached to my olive green pumas. I was into grunge before it was even a trend. But I’ve lightened up some, and for me fashion and art are no longer a way to identify myself, instead I appreciate and love art in all it’s forms, and I look to see what I can learn from each different artist and their point of view. Any style is good in my books, from the ultra vintage to grungy to the ephemeral and the truly girly…

So needless to say I was thrilled to stumble upon Jackie Rueda’s photostream on Flickrt. Hailing from Canada (like myself!) she is clearly multi-talented as she juggles motherhood and work as a journalist, TV writer and photographer. While her collages are breathtaking collectives of other talented photographers, her own work (pictured above) is just as captivating and can be found in her etsy shop.
