lucky is the girl to be blushing

April Francis requested my thoughts and pieces for her spotlight
with Lucky Magazine, p. 45.
Not only was I honored and blushing at this feathery lady singing
to my ear, I was astounded with the write up which hit the stands
for January 2010.  The Levity Lette Lingerie Set is one of the
designs for a/w 2009 collection.
..photography and future projects were underway..
Aesthetic Engineer devised the set for our photoshoot of the
collection.

Sincerity with sustainable options to underthings is particularly
inviting for Under The Root.  April is a magnificent sprite who
uses her head and heart to reach out!
Rachel from Lucky Magazine was the facilitator to the article and
breathed life into the piece.
