ALC F/W 2012

admin — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 06:08:48 +0000

ALC was absolutely my favorite collection from London Fashion Week. Mulberry was a close second – but everything here just looks effortless and perfect – and makes me realize I need leather pants.. like need. PLUS maybe I’ll try some sort of updated printed matching twin-set… maybe…. maybe….

Negative Space + Pandas

admin — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 18:07:11 +0000

This is one of my favorite pages from the B&A Artists Journal – a promotional zine they distributed to art directors to promote their artists. I love the use of negative space – and how the artwork cleverly mirrors the photograph. I also can’t help but mention that the photograph, taken by Mark Lund, is equally playful, and full of the kind of natural light photographers dreams are made of.

F37 Bella

Over the last 6 months or so, I’ve noticed the trend of very classic fonts getting a modern spin. From super thin hairlines – to over-sized slabs – or both of them together at once.. i can’t help but get excited…
Yesterday I was researching fonts for a client & came across one I’ve been meaning to figure out: F37 Bella
This font looks strikingly similar to the Didot & Bauer Bodoni Font Families – but definitely gives off a vibe that is distinctly its own. I love how the hairlines mix with the heavy lines – and those drops… they feel so modern, but feminine, and right now.

I love this little spot by Matthew Frost for Jalouse Magazine. I mean, you know I have a thing for effortless, french styling and cute little french phrases.

Maje Paris – F/W 2011

While redesigning my portfolio site, I think I was subliminally influenced by Maje Paris’s Fall collection!
I love – love the classic french color palette and those coats with the skinny lapels.. it’s just what I want in a jacket this season!

via Maje’s Facebook – like them and see the rest of the collection – it was hard just picking six!

Beyonce as Audrey Hepburn

Another video – I know!! But I seriously cannot get enough of this Audrey Hepburn inspired video by Beyonce for her song Countdown. Seriously, the song is so catchy, the Funny Face references make me so happy, & Beyonce is adorable, but still über sexy.

OH AND – did you see the stained glass in the studio scene?! – I don’t think it is real stained glass… I’m guessing it is either painted on -or- a clever, clever post production trick. Really it doesn’t matter what it is i.still.love.it!

soo i guess this is rather old – because it is behind the scenes footage from a shoot that took place in 2009 – but i thought i’d share it because it is still just as relevant and beautiful today as it was 3 years ago!
