BAG. LADY.

I CAN REMEMBER A TIME NOT TOO LONG AGO WHEN EVERY GIRL WANTED THE GRAFFITI PRINT LOUIS VUITTON BAG. WELL WHAT MOST PEOPLE DIDN'T KNOW WAS THAT THOSE OVER SIZED LETTERS SCRIBBLED OVER THE CLASSIC VUITTON LOGO WERE DONE BY NONE OTHER THEN MR. STEPHEN SPROUSE! IT'S KIND OF ODD TO THINK THAT WITH A FASHION CAREER AS ICONIC AND INFAMOUS AS SPROUSE'S, HIS L.V. COLLABORATION MAY BE WHAT HE IS MOST WIDELY KNOWN FOR.

I'VE ALWAYS HAD A THING FOR THE MINIMAL, CLEAN STYLE THAT SPROUSE USED FOR HIS CLOTHING DESIGN JUXTAPOSED WITH THE LOUD COLORS AND GARISH PRINTS HE FAVORED. HIS CLOTHING WAS LITERALLY A CANVAS FOR HIS ARTWORK. EACH PIECE IS LIKE A WEARABLE WORK OF ART.

GRAPHIC NATURE

I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO POST A COLLECTION OF STEPHEN SPROUSE PICTURES I DID FOR A WHILE NOW, BUT NEVER GOT AROUND TO FINISHING THEM. NOW THAT I HAVE THIS 1st ONE COMPLETE (WITH OTHERS ON THE WAY) AND WHAT WITH SPROUSE MANIA CURRENTLY GRIPPING THE FASHION WORLD, WHAT BETTER TIME TO DUST THEM OFF AND THROW THEM OUT ON THE OL' WEBSITE?

I HAD BEEN A FAN OF SPROUSE'S WORK, BUT NOT UNTIL I HAD THE AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO WORK ON ROGER AND MAURICIO PADILHA'S 'THE STEPHEN SPROUSE BOOK' DID I REALLY GET TO SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE OF HIS GENIUS. I REALLY RESPECT HOW DEDICATED HE WAS TO HIS SINGULAR FASHION VISION. HE INTRODUCED SO MANY GREAT IDEAS AND CONCEPTS INTO FASHION AND POP CULTURE, AND I FEEL THAT ONLY NOW ARE WE STARTING TO REALLY APPRECIATE HIS LEGACY.

FOR MORE INFO ABOUT THE LIFE AND WORK OF Mr. SPROUSE, GO OUT AND GET 'THE STEPHEN SPROUSE BOOK' FROM YOUR LOCAL BOOK SHOPPE OR ORDER IT FROM AMAZON!!! IT'S A GREAT BOOK AND WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY YOU SPEND ON IT! (PLUS MY NAME IS IN THE BACK! YAY ME!!)

GIMMIE SPROUSE!!!

I GOT MY GRAFFITI ON WITH THIS STEPHEN SPROUSE PIECE FOR MY GIMMIE! FASHION SERIES. I HAD RECENTLY BEEN WORKING WIT MY BUDS AT MAO PR ON THEIR STEPHEN SPROUSE BOOK (OUT IN JANUARY KIDDIES!) AND I WAS INSPIRED BY HIS BARELY THERE STRAPPY SWIM-SUITS. I WANTED TO PLAY UP HIS TRADE-MARK GRAFFITI PRINTS, SO I USED IT ON THE COFFEE MUG THESE ROCK LADIES ARE WADING IN. GOTTA LOVE THOSE BUG-EYED SUNGLASSES!
