Best use of balloons and streamers i’ve seen in a while. d.billy via david’s new blog which is of course full of amazing-ness.



I wish I knew about this sooner, I would have loved to contribute some Totoro inspired artwork. Miyazaki’s films are a huge inspiration to me.
Artwork is up for auction by a variety of artists in order to raise money to help save the Sayama forest in Japan, which inspired Hayao Miyazaki to create Totoro. So you know it must be a pretty magical place. Artwork shown by Enrico Sarosa, James Robertson, Jackson Sze and Kevin Dart.

so busy this week and feeling overwhelmed.. see you next week. here are some hillarious videos by comedian john roberts to keep you laughing all weekend. I especially love the christmas tree.

A musical compilation put together by Vanessa Bruno to help the environment by planting 5 trees for each cd sold.
and this was just too funny

Alexis Mabille is doing a special bow tie confection collection for Ladurée

Everytime I go in the Jack Spade store I enviously eye the giant stack of Paris Review books in there, admittedly not for the content since I don’t know what I’m missing, so much as the beautiful aesthetics of their covers. I came across these images of amazing covers past from the blog Hi + Low, which belongs to designer Abby Clawson Low, who not so coincidentally used to work for Kate + Jack Spade. Check out her incredible blog here.

As Charles Eames said, always remember to take pleasure seriously.












these two below were amazingly nice and so well dressed from Pede & Stoffer and Acne in Copenhagen.


Cute passersby..





all photos by me (a few finger prints on the lens never ruined a cute photo) + Scott (thanks!)

sometimes i get carried away making collaged flyers and cards..
thank you to fanny for use of her macaron images.

A sneak peak back in time showing the classic fashion of ivy league schools back in the late 60’s shot by a Japanese photographer, this guy was as smart as the Cobrasnake, in that they were both thoughtful enough to capture an era, only I think Mark is having way more fun. This book seems to be impossible to find right now, if anyone knows of somewhere that stocks it please let me know. Something interesting is going on right now in men’s fashion, at least it was very noticable at Roskilde, there was a whole new league of colorful style. Hopefully more on Roskilde tomorrow! I just got back and I’m still going through all my photos.

I am off to Stockholm tomorrow and then Copenhagen to go to the Roskilde festival later this week. I will probably still be posting all week though. If anyone has any good shopping tips for Copenhagen let me know.
** actually I haven’t had a free second or much sleep. will return next week. Roskilde is crazy!

The ultimate photographer of the dreamy photo look, David Hamilton.


Andrew Kuo is a New York based artist who also has been creating brilliantly colorful infographics for the New York Times quantifying the unquantifiable. His humble attitude, humor and awesome color combinations are my favorite aspects of his work. Check out Kuo’s blog and the video of him on the Charlie Rose show.

I think there is something to be said about a woman being able to capture a certain feeling and sensibility of other women differently than a guy can, I think these photos by Kate Barry have that sort of indescribable feeling.

There is a Veronique Branquinho retrospective exhibit at MOMU in Antwerp going on until August 17th. MOMU is also having a Margiela exhibit that just opened!

I love the beautiful colors and compositions of these polaroids by Jen Gotch of my polaroid blog. She has just set up her new site here.

I passed by the Visionaire gallery and this incredible unicorn was in the window for issue 53 of Visionaire magazine. The gallery was closed when I went by and the lights were off, so you can’t see it from this photo, but this is a giant translucent and iridescent purple decal on the window of the gallery. It’s awesome I want one!

I admire Nagi Noda’s amazing imagination, and have ever since I saw this image of the poodle exercise video, that alone convinced me whoever made it is a genius! Of course the more work of hers I saw the more incredible I realized she is. Check out more of her work here.

Check out this feature on Filippa Berg by Bunny Bisous. She’s so cute, I love her style! Also check out the videos from Go See tv that Filippa hosted.



This weekend was full of fun events in ny. I went to the renegade craft fair in Brooklyn for the first time and it was a great place to pick up little presents. I bought a cute etsy tote, some buttons and a super cute lucky cat paw made of felt by astulabee, who was my favorite booth by far. Some other crafters that I liked were: cake spy, berkley illustration, ink and wit, fern animals, bird and banner, ikskra print, chestnut farmer, and sian keegan who made the really cute stuffed version of Moran, Camilla’s dog. I also attended the 2nd Flux concert, and so sadly missed this epic show in central park! I love the colorful type design for it so much I am posting it anyway.
