Extremely excited to announce that some of my stationery has been selected for the Weisman Art Museum (WAM) re-opening on October 2nd! If you’re in Minneapolis, you can find PaperMichelle wares in the shop! Watch out for another fun announcement in a day or two…

The Big 3-0 is Coming

It’s true. In a few short days, I will be thirty. THIRTY. I’m pretty much fine with it, since I feel like I’m about twelve. I just hate that OTHER people think thirty is old and that I should be settled by now. (They obviously haven’t heard - thirty is the new fifteen.) No matter what I think about the whole thing - it is a benchmark. Benchmarks are supposed to be celebrated with pretty clothes, right? I found these three stunners from Planetclairevintage - and any one of them will fit the birthday outfit requirement perfectly. Hint.

GOOD/Cole Haan Illustration Submission

I found this great contest through GOOD called Project Doodle: Something Good in the World. The challenge is to do a drawing based on someone or something putting good into the world. I am a sucker for a competition - and it helps that it is being supported by Cole Haan. I immediately thought of a national but locally started non-profit called Growing Power. Their vision is to inspire communities to build sustainable food systems that are equitable and ecologically sound, creating a just world, one food-secure community at a time. They were the PERFECT subject for my illustration.

Here it is - I’m pretty happy with it. Remember people: take care of yourself, your community and your planet.

Shoe Love with Chelsea Crew

I picked up the most comfortable, amazing pair of low-wedge, Chelsea Crew oxfords on Bedford Street on a hot Brooklyn day last summer. I have been in love with Chelsea Crew shoes since. These are my latest loves.
