Fashion Week Spring 2013
This season instead of posting about all the predictable designers and how I love their designs (read Rodarte, Jason Wu, Honor), which I do, I wanted to post about two designers that I had never heard of whose beautiful work stood out to me. I’m sure I’m way behind and these peeps have probably been around for awhile but, what can I say, I’m just not in the loop. First is Bora Aksu, which aside from the fact that they appear to be wearing panties on their heads, are lovely modern, yet still feminine designs. Love the yellow as well, though I would look ghastly in it:
Second is Clements Ribeiro, which has more of the vintage lady-like feel that I’m such a sucker for:

I stumbled on to these photos on boooo (never know how many o’s)m.com and they’re so simple and beautiful. Taken by Robin Schwartz of here daughter Amelia
Art again!
Okay I have nary an excuse for why I haven’t posted but I’m here posting now and it’s pretty artastic. These two artists I found recently and actually think they visually complement each other so here they are:
These photos are by Patty Carroll titled ‘Anonymous Portraits’
and these mixed media pieces are by Scott Waters titled ‘Domestic Violence”
Aline Weber for Vogue Japan
Ok, this is from 2011 but it’s beautiful so I thought I would post it anyway

Gallery Openings This Week
Well it’s been months since I’ve moved back to nyc and I can count on one hand the number of galleries I’ve been to…..and not a single museum. Shame on me. I’m the worst artist ever….so in lieu of trying to see more art I thought I’d post a list of some NYC openings this week in case y’all wanted to see some too. Seriously. Go. Don’t be a slacker like me.

It’s a scary world
This series of photos, Bodybuilder’s World by Kurt Stallaert, are kind of fantastic. I’m creeped out by normal bodybuilders, but these digitally manipulated, seemingly steroid laden, youth are beyond scary. It’s an eerie depiction of something I consider to be a common affliction in our society. That’s not saying that I think bodybuilding is running rampant among todays youth. Not at all. The issues of body image and that they affect people of every age…that’s what I take away from these for some reason. Is that what the artist intended? I have no idea. That’s what I see though, and I’m intrigued…and more than just a little bit bothered by these.

Brave New Look
This shoot from Vogue Australia , by Nicole Bentley , captures looks from the fall campaigns. Too many favorites. I want them all. Hello anonymous benefactor, are you listening? I need all of these…and probably a few more too.
