Year of the Snake...

 

Horiyoshi the Third Snake Scarf at Net-A-Porter

I'm sure you've already heard...

This past Sunday marked the start of the Chinese New Year.

Last year it was the Dragon...

This year it's the

Snake...

The Black Snake to be precise...

Now, I am not a HUGE snake fan...

In fact, if I never ever see one again,

I would be more than perfectly content in my life..

 But

I am hoping this Snake will bring us lots of luck, joy, creativity, health and love this year.

Speaking of snakes...

I am entranced with these FABULOUS lovelies from

Jimmy Choo

Since when does snake print need to be too snakey?

Why not be colorful..

Why not in MY favorite colors?

Well lucky for you and

the Lovely Miss Sarah Crawford,

whose branding I have just finished...

(trust me you'll get it at the unveil)

I have found such items..

So bring it on Snake..

I'm not afraid of you!!

Earth, Wind, Fire and a Little Water...

Image designed by The Monster & Chocolate Creative Design

In the Wesson household, we are ALL too familiar with Dragons...

In fact, we like to think of ourselves as experts...

We know ALL their names, what they eat, where they come from and they are often found sleeping on counters in our kitchen.

Last June, The Monster decided on having a Dragon themed birthday party (more to come on that) which included a silver tent, a treacherous scavenger hunt, rat guts and witches spleen pie, a castle cake amidst flying dragons and T-shirts with the Monster's Dragon drawing above.

So when we found out that starting today, for the Chinese New Year 2012, it will be none other than the year of the Dragon.

Now apparently this isn't any old dragon...this is the Black Water Dragon...Since this is the ONLY legendary creature in the Chinese Zodiac, I am betting that this year will be something very very special...

So Check out Chinese Fortune Calendar and see what's in store for you this New Year!
