take me… away

The satisfaction of blog assisted voyeurism is kinda strange. Out of the ridiculous amount of blogs I follow, a few are quite personal. They aren’t of anyone I know, aren’t particularly focused on fashion or any specific thing, and they are mainly just full of photos of these peoples’ adventures in life.

  • Cali Dewitt is an artist and runs a gallery. His girlfriend is in a band and has a brutal blog of her daily outfits that I thought were a joke at first but they’re not. I adore her. Cali ended his old blog “I Wish God Were Alive to See This” but thankfully moved it to RVCA. They are lovely people living a lovely life in L.A. full of love, friendship, beauty and simplicity.
  • I have no idea who runs the blog Vectors of the Necronomicon but it’s tons of pics of kids who ride bikes all over L.A. and have adventures.
  • “Mischeif & manic marbles of the mayhem-esque me’s” is by a girl named Sanna, living in London, who has incredible luck, takes crazy photos, burns the candle at both ends and has a penchant for shoplifting.
  • Kumi Monster, the latex fetish model I adore has a moblog of her world travels (a lot of airports).
  • Lastly, I love notes by naive. Tommy, a girl in London is also the photogrpaher for killer style blog Jak & Jil but it’s her personal blog that is most interesting to me.

I don’t know what it is about these candid travel/adventure shots. I need to take more pictures. I need to travel more. L.A.? London? don’t get me started on everywhere I want to go…

Holy shit. In Mischief and marbles…. scrolling down a bit I instantly recognized my friend’s work… the jewelry with the bird skulls and such. Pamela Love. We grew up down here together, she was one of the bridesmaids in my brother & Trisha’s wedding. Incredibly small world.

I love these blogs and the travel and adventure too. Girl, you deserve an adventure more than anyone I know. Do it!!! Anywhere! :)

Good grief it is a small world! Wow! That jewelry is indeed awesome… love the subversive quality and really like the gold, strangely enough!

I’m taking adventures any way I can get them!

I agree, it’s always the personal and sometimes wrenching blogs that become my favorite and they are strangely anonymous and intimate at the same time. Thanks for these, I will check them out.
