I went to event on May 6th, Sorry for the late post, its been crazy getting the kid-o's to the end of the year for Project Fashion, to see Keith Johnson talk at the Anthropologie in Chelsea Market and it was so wonderful. His life must be so amazing, traveling the world in search of amazing art, artists, designs and finds. I always have had a bad case of wanderlust, so I am super jealous. Turns out he was super sweet and friendly too, a lot of the times when you meet someone you admire, there jerks, but he seemed like a truly nice guy to hangout with. He told us wonderful travel stories and about his father being an antiques dealer and bring home a carousel, which I thought must have been so magical, living amongst theses storied things.
I also got there fully intending not to speak, I got really self conscious since originally I was going with someone and now would be there alone, But I mustered the courage and even made a comment about going to Budapest on his next adventure for the show Man Shops Globe ( I love that show). Then my courage waned and when he asked for suggestions after the talk of place to go in BP I choked and me and my beau hustled to a late dinner, I blame my hunger on my lack of follow thru. Anyway above and below are pics of the beautiful store in which he gave a guided tour of all the objects after the talk.
I love these blue tiles with the hot pink flowers.
