Balenciaga or Bust?

Balenciaga or Bust?

I was not a “Bernie or Bust” bro by any means, but I did vote for Bernie Sanders in the Illinois primary this past Spring. When it was clear that Hillary was going to be the Democratic nominee, there was no question that I was going to support her. Not everyone felt the same way.

It seems Demna Gvasalia was one of these people, or maybe are just marketing to them? He recently designed Balenciaga’s 2017 Fall Menswear Collection (why they are releasing Fall clothes in January, I don’t know. Fashion is it’s own world) featuring the logo in the style of Bernie Sanders’ campaign logo. Not sure why he chose to style his men’s collection after the self declared “Democratic Socialist”, but the idea sure is getting attention!

Balenciaga’s version of a blanket scarf?

I love myself a blanket scarf but this might be too much. Not like I could afford it anyway 😉

Oh hey... Feeling myself after so long. Got dressed up and went to a distillery with some friends. Felt almost normal. But then I remembered I was in Arkansas.
How do we know when we are ready to find "the one"? Do we know what to look for, and what are our decisions influenced by? In this episode, we chat with Radha Patel (@radha824 ), a US based Indian matchmaker and founder of “Single to Shaadi,” (@singletoshaadi ), a matchmaking service for South-Asian singles in the US and Canada. She gives us insight into the care and thoughtfulness she puts into matchmaking, and what kinds of internal and external pressures individuals tend to experience as they approach matchmaking, such as: timeline, religion, region, upbringing, and more. She also sheds light on how she is able to strike a balance between traditional and modern notions of love and marriage especially when families are involved, as they so often are in South Asian marriages. Through years of experience, Radha has managed to honor the individual first and foremost in the matchmaking process - a stark contrast from traditional South Asian marriages of days past.
