Please visit us at OUR NEW SITE What Women Make. This site, relegated to a sad and stagnant life in hard-to-update flash is a placid beauty ain't she?

2008... 2009... One has come and gone and the other is half way through. Please download my brand strategy and ethnography and services above in the link that says download 'kit' and we'll otherwise see you on What Women Make, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

I wrote on the Design Moment, published in this first issue of Terrace by the founders of the brilliant and inimitable Trace Magazine. Pick it up at your local (better) newsstand. By the way, that's me with the hat in the lower center square.

Ewww Chauncey! That sounds like something your high school gym teacher would say to you when they're trying to be "hip". Gross!

support me, support me here because i just got this email - this company wanted me to do work for it. to find these girls to do this for them and i read it and it was like the straw that broke the camel's back. i'm like i can't do this. i don't want to do this. it was repugnant to me. just read this. i don't want to be this:

(wait i have to go get it from my gmail which i have to switch off this account to get to..)

THIS IS THE EMAIL I RECEIVED FROM A MARKETING COMPANY:

"Hello all,

We are looking to recruit X for a streetwear project

The Word On The Streets

Are you a way cool, 17-21 year old girl in New York City or London with a liking for streetwear and slamming kicks? Maybe you like a bit of Urban vintage with a ghetto flavor?

If that didn't make any sense, this probably won't be of interest to you - but if it sounds like I am describing you or maybe one of your friends then get in touch with me - Quick!
"

BLECCCHHHH

i dont want to manipulate, label, condescend, pigeonhole but I like and am curious about creativity and energy and beautiful things we can make.

hmmmm

Let's get this party started lovelies! Hello, I'm Aja. . . I currently bounce back and forth between Brooklyn, NY and northern Va (right outside of DC). When I'm not freelancing in tv and snapping photos (I sometimes contribute to www.nylonmag.com), I sew clothing. Like a mad woman. It is my hobby, my therapy and my favorite thing to do. Over the weekend, I made a dress for myself. . . and then one for a friend. Here we both are, smiling, in our dresses (I'm the one in the red).

just checking in from london...

Hello everyone! Let me see if I get this right too...

i just rediscovered the old blog i tried to set up a long time ago. now i have two blogs. i'd like this blog to be just for the street team girls to talk to one another only. i dont know how to do that.
