Starry Night: Shadowplay NYC

{images from Shadowplay NYC}

I'm in lust with the galaxy, or galaxy prints rather. Call it being "cosmically-inclined" or "space-smitten" but ever since Christopher Kane released that collection of sublime prints from the Hubble telescope I've been obsessed. My search continues, not for extraterrestrial life in the universe, but for space prints! Luckily I stumbled upon Shadowplay NYC, an indie line produced locally in New York City. I love the unique silhouettes of their dresses, and their swingy a-line skirts. I've been leaning towards the Trifid Nebula Spandex dress because it can be draped in numerous ways, but those skirts are also very tempting.

I remember being a kid and getting a telescope for my birthday. Every night I would rush outside when the sky began to darken and focus my eyes upwards to the stars. Granted I couldn't see far with that little Sears telescope but it was enough to capture my imagination. I'd dream of space ships and little green men and someday walking on the surface of Mars. I may never fulfill my childhood dream of being an astronaut, but at least with the help of these cosmic prints a girl can dream.
