Pewter and Brass




The experiment keeps on going.

The journey is far, the time is running out, I am slow moving.

I know I shouldn't be so ambitious, because I know so well that greed causes suffering.

However as a human, I am not wise enough, like a moth, light craving.

Parc Boutique










Parc Boutique in Minneapolis is that place where you can find special items that are carefully curated by Thao Nguyen. Handmade jewelry, accessories, shoes and clothing are among the collection sold in her store.



The winter lookbook is truly inspring with beautiful photography and great captured moments and items. The contrast between dark and light creates a sophisticated atmosphere in a mysterious and minimalistic way.
