When you take a picture of someone, never show it to them right away. If they don’t like it, they may erase it.
Jean Pigozzi Quotes
Before I started LimoLand, I mainly bought my clothes in Harlem, where I found clothing my size in fun colors. I still like to go there and see the vibrancy and colors of the neighborhood. I am also very influenced by the colors of my contemporary African and Japanese art collections.
