Iโ€™m biased - but this is amazing! The future is bright.
Sharing a bit more about Reflect Orbital today. @4TristanS and I are developing a constellation of revolutionary satellites to sell sunlight to thousands of solar farms after dark. We think sunlight is the new oil and space is ready to support energy infrastructure. This airborne test was the last piece needed before we launch above the atmosphere. ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿงต(1/6)

They're often the last article of clothing we put on, but shoes are a statement of style, personality and identity. Now, footwear through the ages is showcased at @batashoemuseum in Toronto. @danajacobson visited the museum to learn about their history.

Finally, Curator and Exhibitions Project Manager Nishi Bassi will close the session with a discussion of Bata Shoe Museum. 'Dressed to Impress: Footwear and Consumerism in the 1980s' explores the ideas of success, glamour, and rebellion that surrounded footwear in the 1980s.

I'm going to give a talk about preppy clothes in the cradle of preppy clothes. This is going to be fun. If you're in the vicinity of a little college in Boston, come on by- it's open to the public!

Carolyn King, the founder of the @moccasinidenti1, took 3 days to pick the moccasin to symbolize our wonderful initiative in 2011. Ever since, she has been working hard to achieve her goal to one day cover Canada in Moccasins! Thanks for all the help :) #CoverCanadaInMoccasins

Articles of Interest is the best thing in fashion media right now. It's smart, substantive, & unpretentious. Pulls in ppl no matter how much they know about the subject. If you're not familiar with it, start with Season 1 and work your way through. Honestly a must-listen podcast
