There's something intensely connective about being a part of a couple's wedding day.
And, while this lil' brand may only be providing bridesmaid gifts (ah, our kimono robes) or a honeymoon pressie from the oh-so handsome groom (ah, silk cami dresses), the excitement and the rush of being a part of a new journey is ever-present. So much so, this lil' Plum Pretty Sugar Loungerie is all tied-up in the details... the dress, the colors, the locale, the photography.
Which brings us here. To some exquisite beyond words photography by Aaron and Jen Delesie... made ever more special because of the high school friendship this lil' Plum shared with Jen. Here's to Summer, to those amazing weddings and the connection that somehow manages to join us all.

I was interviewed today about this little Plum Pretty Sugar Loungerie brand. About finding success despite a tres mal economy. About finding joy amidst la difficulté.
And I was brought back to my time in Tokyo earlier this year. It was there where that little bit of je nais sais quoi found me. Where an amazing gift from a certain someone, pointed and focused and found in me, clarity. My Nikon D60 and I spent beaucoup d'heures in the back streets, in suburbia actually. Amidst the washing lines, the telephone wires, the bicycles with baskets, the flowers, the softly patterned umbrellas, the watering cans, the trees chopped at funny angles. Inspiré found! (And good golly, photoshop.)
My first inspiration boards, collages... These collages. The beginning of the new.


Inspiration landed in this Plum's lap this morning. It fit beyond perfection with some new, dare I say ... amazing... photography. A little piece of moi. A big piece of this little brand.

A beach visit. And its hard to believe we live in a material world. Moved by the freedom of nature. Its own design. The harmony of hues. The orchestra of movement. The balance of texture. I hadn't thought it before.
It got this lil' Plum Pretty Sugar Loungerie thinking. Grateful, actually. We've been a' selling camis, caftans, tanks as beach cover-ups. Multi-purposeness that I adore. Happy Plum Pretty Sugar is a part of the beach. The harmony. The push and pull of nature. All of us living together. In nature. In beauty. Inspired.
