texture.d has a new home!

{peace out}


hi guys...
yes, it's been forever since we last spoke...
(or i guess - "wrote"? hm. whatever...)

I have been in the middle of a little life transition -
packing up & moving to New York City, y'all!

Since this blog site was dedicated to Dallas (kind of) - my blog now has a new home!

Please check it out :: HERE

I hope everyone is doing just lovely...my goal is to actually post on the new blog frequently
{keep your fingers crossed on that one}
 and give it more of a personal spin - as i begin this new chapter in life.

have a happy day!

{tech trendy} : Megan Adams Designs

{ via Daily Candy }

i have broken my last 4 iPhones within 5 days flat. 
that is a true track record. 
i am not graceful. or very responsible.  

so i love a good case when i see it.
(considering - i probably need to wrap my gadgets in 16 layers of bubble wrap to ensure any safety whatsoever)

Dallas textile designer Megan Adams has turned her original screen printed fabrics into bright, colorful accessories -
for iPhones, iPads, iPods, & portable speakers.
(side note : the cast of Bravo's Most Eligible Dallas tote these around...as they board their weekly crazy train)
 anyway...

Check out Megan's designs HERE
(she also has pillows, fabrics, clutches, etc)

Ruby Red obsession...get some.
(side note: my cat's name is Ruby. random, yes.)

see ya - "simple"...
you are getting kicked out by the
Excessive Accessory Overload train!!
{ ...choo choo... } 


I was like a kid in an ARM CANDY shop 
when I saw that Refinery29
had interviewed 20 of NYC's fashion elite -
to discuss this obsession of decorating their wrists in the most wonderful conglomoration of layered bangles, cuffs, old-school friendship bracelets, & humongous MAN watches
(shoot - some even add in a recent concert/festival armband for an added touch...)

Here are a few of my favorites ...
seriously, this is accessory heaven in my book.

I am a devout believer in piling on as many accessories that you can - more is More is MORE...is more -
in my book anyway.  


What do you think? Which look do you love most?




Hope everyone is having a great Monday!
