Big watch, small wrist

I remember a time when most of the people sporting stately, affluently-sized watches were dads, grandpas, and probably the occasional Salvador Dali fan. But these days, no matter who you are, it seems there's nothing wrong with having a wall clock wrapped around your wrist. In fact, according to the rules of watch-wearing and presidential arm swag, bigger is better.

When I first discovered Swiss Wrist, a leader in the luxury watch industry, I thought "Jeez, I bet even Father Time was wearing a Rolex Submariner." Not only does Swiss Wrist thrive on complete customer satisfaction that's backed by authenticity and a three-year product warranty; they've also been consistently recognized by some of the biggest brand names in today's media. They even offer pre-owned Rolex watches for the budget savvy, so if you haven't jumped on the timekeeper's trend with your own Rolex Datejust, be sure to check it out!

Besides your fashion-forwardness, and assuming you'll never be late for another meeting again, think of the minutes saved by simply avoiding that age-old question, "Do you have the time?"

The Body

You can barely see it in the last post , so here's a clearer picture of what I've been working on in my new art studio... not that it hasn't come with little stop your heart stress moments. The first time I attempted this piece, now referred to as The Body , was mutually as terrifying as it was exhilarating. It was the first full hand drawing I'd ever attempted, and everything was going smoothly until the moment I decided to incorporate oil paint, also the first in my artwork experiences. My grandmother was an award-winning artist, but now, without her wealth of knowledge and go-to advise, this is really a learning/teach yourself process. The drawing was done and exactly how I wanted it, the hair and tights were painted, and the final stages involved adding skin and the completion of the tattoos. I didn't go in naively, I understood that it would inevitably boil down to the dynamics of trial and error, so I inhaled deeply and began creating my palette. In re

Designs by Bella: Vintage Lollipops x Magazzini del Sale Capsule Collection

Last year, Italian designer Graziano Moro of Magazzini Del Sale contacted me about collaborating and designing a five-piece Limited Edition capsule collection for their SS 11 Love Can Change the World t-shirt line. Having never been given such an incredibly surreal opportunity before, you can imagine my absolute surprise... followed by some sort of psychotic jubilation. At the time, I'd only been drawing for about a month, which means the designs you're seeing are some of my very first artworks! Brainstorming endless possibilities, the process began with a series of sketches, clipart graphics, and silhouette collages until I further conceptualized the vision by deciding to submit only my illustrations. After presenting numerous options, Graziano and the team exclusively selected their top picks... and after several months of diligence, reworking, and constant communication, my artwork was transformed into a beautiful line of ecru shirts forever deemed, Vintage Lollipops x M
