So, there are plenty of multicolored accessories this Spring/Summer 2016 season. I recently did an oil pastel sketch of a rainbow contrasted with rain. You know what they say, when it rains it pours but the sun has to come out eventually.
This Paula Cademartori Tatiana Bag has some of the same colors in the rainbow. She has a number of brightly colored accessories for the season. Check out the bag in the Fashion Shop and bring on the color!

So, I don’t know about you, but I’m looking forward to the summer. I’ve been thinking about bathing suits recently, have you seen this Salinas Batoul swimsuit? Global warming is a big problem and we need to do more for our environment. In any case, I’m looking forward to warmer weather.

I came across this beautiful one-piece Salinas bathing suit and got excited about the warm weather to come. New York has been crazy this year with the weather. Never know what to wear. Florida, here I come!

So, the weather has been a bit all over the place this Spring. But, hey, some days the sky is just gorgeous. I recently sketched some clouds and had some fun with oil pastels. I’ve been thinking about the sky, the universe, and clouds are just what came out. I always wonder about the universe and how big it is. There are so many stars and nature and the planet simply inspire me.
Enjoy!

Speaking of hot sauce, and I mean in reference to Beyoncé’s new powerful video Formation, I make some mean hot wings. And, well it’s Superbowl time. I’m still kind of a sore loser as my Patriots didn’t make the cut but I’m excited at the prospect of Cam Newton winning to shut down the nay-sayers. Anyway, Happy Superbowl Sunday y’all! I never really use a recipe for hot wings (always eye-ball it) but this is a good estimate and yes, people always LOVE my wings!
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
10 chicken wings
vegetable oil for frying
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup hot sauce
black pepper to taste
pinch of garlic powder
Melt a lot of hot sauce with real unsalted butter in a small pot. Mix flour with salt, pepper, paprika and a pinch of garlic powder. Dredge the wings in buttermilk (if you have time, you can marinate them overnight in buttermilk) and then cover them in the flour mix. Fry in hot vegetable oil turning them to brown lightly on both sides. Drain them on a paper towel to soak up the extra oil. And then put the wings inside of the small pot with butter and hot sauce. Place on a plate and serve with blue cheese dressing and celery. Yummy! Enjoy.

So, I’m snowed in like everyone else in the Northeast right now. Jonas is not exactly a blizzard here in New York but it’s definitely dumping a lot of snow on us. I mean, I can’t even see outside too well because of this snow. Anyway, this kind of weather calls for some great snow boots. And why not be cute while you stay warm this winter? Check out these boots below and even more winter accessories here.
