Must Read List...

I cannot wait to see this movie, "Jesus in India," which was shown on Sundance Chanel in December 2008

Apparently, the movie was based on the book by Edward T. Martin, "King of Travelers, Jesus' Lost Years in India" which should be a fascinating read...came across it on youtube...I love this book cover for the German version of Holger Kersten's book, "Jesus Lived in India"
the English version of it is high impact as well as in this deep blood red...

Colors of Tibet

I love this THANGKA from Tibet which features Green Tara, a Bodhisattva in traditional Tibetan colors of red, saffron, yellow, burgandy, pinks...
It inspired me to make some scarves from materials which my sister had brought back from India on her first visit there... Love the deep saffron orange hue of this sari material that has a gold embroidered edge -- also makes me think of ancient Rome...

this short sleeve coral denim jacket...
a Chadwick's of Boston red trench coat and a bright yellow silk scarf with red detail...

a closeup of the scarf I created...
this neon yellow bandana...

and this mondavi for target neon yellow messenger bag

and a gorgeous burgandy scarf with deep yellow motifs paired with a sunny yellow hooded trench...
a better view of the trench from Walmart...

and this saffron yellow denim jacket when a coat is excessive...

This yellow and white gingham tiered skirt...

Neon yellow moccasins
couldn't resist these Birkenstock type sandals at Walmart for $9.99...
and these saffron / marigold peeptoe shoes in faux patent leather...
this saffron tee would go well with the saffron peeptoe shoes...
that will team well with this saffron scarf...
and finally a pair of red crocs for a couple of bucks!

this chunky amber necklace...
this yellow jasper nugget strand...
or even this yellow aventurine strand...
these blonde tortoiseshell sunglasses...
and these vintage amber frame sunglasses...
 that look so retro with their broad arms...
these orange sunglasses...
or these cranberry red sunglasses...
And here are some of favorite images of Tibet and my inspiration...

saffron jacket and cool shades!



a scene from the movie, Seven Years in Tibet, a cinematic feast for the eyes...
