Blü Magazine

I stumbled upon this really great series of kids in a graffiti and street art setting by Houston based artist Kevin Peterson.

Haute Couture: Jean Paul Gaultier Spring/Summer 2012

Is it just me or do some of the models look like the late Amy Winehouse, complete with the messy big hair, heavy eye make up and cigarette?! The lingerie paired with veils is quite fun. i love this collection.

Fashion Item of the Week: Asymmetrical Skirt

Maxi skirts have been popular for awhile now (and definitely one of my favorite stapes). But now comes the asymmetrical skirt- the maxi skirt with a little twist. Short in the front, long in the back. The mullet of skirts if you will- but in a good way!

Best in Class

Models Lily Donaldson, Jourdan Dunn, Cara Delevingne and Nyasha Matonhodze star in this month’s issue of W Magazine with an array of looks from some Spring/Summer collections. These beautiful designs include McQueen, YSL, Balenciaga, Chanel and Louis Vuitton to name a few. These images are dark but paired with the bright colors and fun patterns make for an interesting editorial.

Giant Cows of Miina Äkkijyrkkä

Miina Äkkijyrkkä is a painter, a sculptor and she is also a protector of Finncattle, the native Finnish dairy breed. Besides contributing to Marimekko she recycles large metal pieces to create sculptures of her beloved cows. She has never followed the mainstream but has managed to combine agriculture and “high” culture, the visual arts and cattle-raising, or performance art and the cherishing of traditions.

Pony Tale - Wildfox Spring 2012

Ponies, stars and hearts… Best Wildfox collection yet!

We Are Handsome - The Romantic

Counting down the months until summer is here, especially after looking at the We Are Handsome’s new lookbook for spring and summer 2012. Titled The Romantic the lookbook was shot in beautiful South Beach featuring some of the prettiest swimsuits covered in animal photos and flower prints.

Erik Jones - The Iris On

Stumbled across the awesome work of the talented Brooklyn artist Erik Jones. If you happen to be in San Francisco this month I highly recommend checking out the Supersonic Electronic show at Spoke Art that will run until January 26th featuring some of Erik’s work.

If you want more information on Erik’s work check out his blog The Iris One, where he documents his process with each of his pieces.

Fashion Item of the Week: Peter Pan Collar

Although Peter Pan was indeed a young boy, this boyish look is quite popular now among women. The high rounded collar provides and extra flair to a simple blouse and/or dress. The Peter Pan collar could be seen on many of Twiggy’s outfits in the 1960’s and as we all know, styles come back around and this one definitely has and can be seen all over.
