"fallen world"

i look up...i look down...
and a little world has fallen apart.

finding a place

each post has an inhabitanteach bird has a place to call it's own
with one left searching for somewhere to belong.

in the trees

flying from branch to branch...a magical world is born...
and for a moment you believe it.

sweet gesture

in exchange for my time for an interview, the student interviewer brought cupcakes...the little gestures in life are the ones that lighten the day.

the goal

we live in a disposable culture...
miriam cecilia's goal: garments that can take you through the day, through the season, and through the years. your miriam cecilia will stand by you... actually, on you... with the change of time.

escape

leave the worries and thoughts behind...
i look down and see a flake of mica on my knee...
my line miriam cecilia is apart of me...
i suppose escaping is never an option...
i must always bring it along with me on my journey...

one's capacity

with strength. endurance. agility. and perseverance...anything is within reach.

the morning breaks

the sun hides from the early risers...
standing waiting for the day to begin...
the clouds break...
a sign of hope for light to spread over the day.

a miracle.

a designer once told me "every collection is a miracle"
he was right...
after hours of designing, sourcing fabrics, draping, patterning, fitting, cutting, sewing... you have no clue how it will all work... then somehow, one day, the collection is ready and you show for the first time to a small public consisting of a stylist, a photographer, a makeup artist, and some models... and somehow it has all come together under the bright lights for the camera to capture.
miriam cecilia carlson's spring '11 collection awaits the sweet months of cool rain drops and warm rays of sunshine in 2011.

guidance

with every push of the pedal...
a swarm rises...
leading me towards my unknown destination...

silent light

a scene of fire flies rising up from the field at dusk..
flickering and shimmering..
bringing light to the darkness..
quiet but grand..
a vision shared w.a friend as he finds the right notes.
