LP, Badlands, by Dirty Beaches

During a very late night dinner yesterday, where delirium and alcohol on empty stomach overtook hunger, we started talking about taxi stories, which led to a discussion on the film NIGHT ON EARTH by Jim Jarmusch. In my book, I believe it to be one of the first movies that led itself into creating this whole Indie Vignette movie genre that eventually became mainstream when Love Actually was widely received. But unlike Love Actually, Night on Earth has this dark, black, grimy humour coupled with emotions deep beyond the warm fuzzy stuff, that it rips your guts and heart out, all at the same time. Sometimes you don’t even realize you’re crying until tears start to impair your vision...and then it hurts, just enough for you to process. Black screen for 1/16th of a second and then a new story is happening in front of you, only to feel it all over again. Oh, and when it’s really good----by the end of the movie, you just FLOAT . Waiting for your head to process what was felt in your heart. WHOA. To me, that’s what it’s all about...whether it’s film, music, fashion, books, words, people, LIFE. Once there’s an attraction or spark of curiosity, the feeling becomes ingrained, and this whole energy, universe, balance thing reacts--either super strongly and loving...or an absolute shut down, shut off, black.

Dirty Beaches’ ( aka Alex Zhang Hungtai ) debut LP, Badlands, has this dark, creepy element to it that makes me think of a piece of weathered wood, drifting in the swamps, floating on black dirty waters with just rays of sunshine peaking through everyday. And to many, it parallels films with “stylized noir of David Lynch, Jim Jarmusch, Quentin Tarantino, and Wong Kar Wai...squeezes the sounds of early rock’n’roll and 1950s music through a lo-fi, distortion-drenched filter.”~pitchfork

But hey, listen to it yourself and see what you feel, how you feel, and why you feel. I love it because it MAKES ME FEEL.

Which is the real state? Dream within the reality? Or the reality within the Dream? And that is his chosen medium for his self portraits.

When asked why his self-portraits have that surreal storytelling spin, here's what Van Daele told us: "It feels the most 'real' to me. It's much easier for me to recreate my imagination's image of what I'm feeling than to find it in the world around me. I like that the surrealism triggers something different in each person, while it's still meaningful to me specifically...sort of a choose your own adventure."

You have really outdone yourself this season. The Espadrille mid-sole ‘creeps’ up on you soooo good! I’ve seen it on men, seen it on women..they are even more beautiful in person.
Can’t wait to try them on.

Architecture charms me to death. I do not know much about it, but it talks to me like clothing patterns do. 2D to 3D. It looks extremely complex, especially when you factor space into it, yet simply beautiful. At any second, this spaceship could fly...and I’d happily jump in for the ride. To infinite and beyond!

We’ve added 5 more bags to the store! These were inspired by food, wooden door hinges, the sea, and Westerns. Despite the constant references to the sea, we are deeply rooted and in love with Westerns--hence our banner. Born and raised in Texas, we have instilled in us the warmth and romantic cultures of the South.

This is a simulated image of the 8.9 quake. This intensity within Earth, the fire, is of itself a cry for help...for peace. Even within the art world, these colors represent the opposite of calm, cool, peace. There is absolutely no balance, no Ying and Yang, no Ewam. “Mother Earth is alive and wants to live. She wants mankind to help and make it happen, not turn us into a lonely planet.” Please do your part. “Let’s act, not react.” (~Reid Inouye)

Along the same lines, April is coming up and it’s National Volunteer Month. Even though it’s acknowledged in April, try to volunteer more than this month. It’s our community, our People, our Earth, our Peace. An activist once told me, “even if it’s just making photocopies, the smallest acts make the biggest difference.” Annie and I hope that each one us can do our part, no matter how big or small, to make someone else’s and Mother Earth’s life happier, more peaceful, stronger, smarter, all around, Better. Please don’t forget to always give back. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Introducing AIRA’s sister line, the General Goods Store.

For now, AIRA will be taking a hiatus from its Contemporary line. With our travels and what we feel best for us now, we have decided to concentrate on creating a mini collection of accessories. As always, forever with quality and love inspired by the current ‘air.’

Please check back for new products and thanks for your constant support for AIRA. And of course, we will keep blogging about inspirations and current news.

Love,
K + A

I love the clean, simple look with washed-out colors. It seems as if it’s been laundered and exposed under the sun for years. The textures of the stones, especially the bathroom, is just the right amount to not overwhelm with glitz and patterns. Serenity.






So in love with this bathroom.

It has more than 200 years of economic, industrial, and architectural development that maps the history of New England Industrialism. It’s located in North Adams, Massachusetts and is comprised of 19th-century factory buildings. The vibe in town is still very industrial, a little dry, but beautiful.

So, it’s really nice to see toy makers still in existence, especially crafting wooden toys that will last forever.
