adore: radiant rio de janeiro

my dear sola of onyx feather just launched her latest line of fantastically modern vintage jewelry inspired by the "marvelous city" of rio de janeiro. what is better than white turquoise, vintage south american pendants, and exotic trade beads? how about that 15% of each purchase is donated to invisible children? gotta love fashion that gives back!

check out the entire line and the other wonderful cities of onyx feather here.

peruse: sharks' teeth

 

Sharks' Teeth

Kay Ryan

Everything contains some   

silence. Noise gets

its zest from the

small shark's-tooth

shaped fragments

of rest angled

in it. An hour   

of city holds maybe   

a minute of these   

remnants of a time   

when silence reigned,   

compact and dangerous   

as a shark. Sometimes   

a bit of a tail   

or fin can still   

be sensed in parks.
