Well Read Flower

Ya'll this is my first blog post in years!! Probably since my tumblr days lol, I'm so excited to be sharing more of my life and you give you all a glimpse of my personality (and artist!) behind the brand Dirty Blossom. Fun fact about me is that I'm a huge magazine + bookworm. My dream home? A floor to ceiling library filled with all my favorite books. I mean honestly, what a FLEX- especially if you've read most of them. I love a good balance between art, self-help and juicy fiction. Oh and I can't forget a good memoir!! Here are a few of my favs lately: Wildflower by Aurora James-Her story and the making of Brothers Vellies is so powerful. So much resilience, and the intention behind her business is beautiful. Highly recommend this if you're working on a startup or creative brand. Black Power Kitchen by Ghetto Gastro, lush gorgeous storytelling through food. I'm a huge foodie (and lowkey a food critic lol) , so this fed my soul and my tastebuds. Still Life by Doan Ly- A visual dream. How can you not appreciate an artist that designs breathtaking florals and photographs her own work. She was the featured artist at Art In Bloom the year I participated and I was truly impressed, this is a great coffee table book. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho- Forever in my top five. It's one of those books you return to again and again because it hits differently depending on where you are in life. A reminder to follow your heart, stay present, and recognize the magical opportunities in front of you. Thank you for listening to my Bloom talk! I hope you enjoyed this and maybe found a new read or two. Until next time!:)
