So, I wanted to bring back the weekly links I use to do but stopped. I liked doing them because I often tweet about things but not everyone who reads SheBreathes follow the tweets. I was sharing them on the Spillover, but will bring them back here on a weekly basis for now.
Small Update:I've hinted at this for over a year now, I tend to tweet about it more than I write
about it, but I am now the Editor-in-Chief of a new magazine, which
will be printed biannually starting next March. We have no plans to
take it monthly and there will be an online companion just not in the
capacity that most magazines work. I won't tell you what type of
magazine it is but I will show you in January when we will release an
"alternate" cover online with alternate content. I know a bit
convoluted but I think you'll love it. If you've been reading
SheBreathes for a while then you already have an idea of what it will
be like. It is indeed how I see the world. Earlier this week we did a photoshoot with some models I've been pining over for a while, it was truly nerve-wrecking + a dream come true all wrapped in one, thus why the posts have been slow coming on here {sorry}. It was the type of editorial I wished my favourite magazines would do, but instead of constantly complaining and adding commentary, I took a good friend {who is the investor/Publisher} up on an offer and decided to change the things in the world of fashion + magazines that I don't like. We plan to bring you over 200 pages of inspiration! The shows I attended in Milan and Paris were for the magazine but I promise I'm working on a snippet of them to share on here, so stay tuned!
We have an awesome team thus far and without them none of this would be possible. I am so grateful to have a group of people who believe in the vision and want to see it come to fruition! But I never stop searching and I can't discover it all. Please submit your portfolios, lookbooks, writing samples etc to me at: ds@sejaismag.com.
I also wanted to add that the other most exciting part has been seeing the advertisers {yes there will be some but not many} who have purchased space based on a "mock-up" of the magazine + our media kit. Don't believe the hype when they say luxury brands don't advertise in diverse magazines, because we've seen the opposite. Perhaps it's the Obama effect, but I'd like to think it has everything to do with the people who are investing their time and creativity in the magazine. We have a major stylist working with us on the cover, it's insane. Just wait til you see who he is and who makes the cover! I'm excited but no worries SheBreathes isn't going anywhere. She still has a purpose ;)
Breathable Links:Love + Dreams has been sufficiently updated and there is loads of Brasil like, the art showing I attended at Brasilian spa Maria Bonita in SoHo for artist Damon Johnson. Brasilian-French painter Isabelle Tuchband and Brasilian home decor haven Micasa's collaboration with designer Alexandre Herchcovitch.
HeBreathes is finally being updated {hint, hint, nudge} so visit and indulge, he's slowly building an arsenal of the utterly breathable for the lovely lads out there. I describe HeBreathes as "an ode to all the men I've loved before" and indeed it is.
I have a business crush on wait . . . Ivanka Trump, yes I do. I happen to like her and encourage my readers to pick-up her book. I will. I just think she's kinda dope. You might too.

This is hilarious. Myron Christian's travel photography is breathtaking! I dig this but must sigh on this and this. He is always spot-on and I love when he updates because he says things I don't have to repeat.
