Ampersands








Sometimes the ampersand is the most interesting character of the set. These are some of my favorites.

Paristocrats






The thing I love most about fashion is it's ability to transport me into this imaginary world - far away from the realities of everyday life. Nevermind that most of the clothes are unaffordable and most people don't look like models - those details become irrelevant when you jump into the parallel universe of a great fashion story.

Life - Keith Richards



As a person who is endlessly fascinated by the music and culture of the 1960's, I loved reading more about it from Keith's point of view through his countless stories about living life (dangerously) on the edge. "Keef" is definitely the ultimate rock star, then and now.

Lover the Label - A Dance for One

A Dance For One. from LOVER® on Vimeo.

Another inspiring fashion video, this time from Australia's Lover the Label. I can see heavy influence by the photography of David Hamilton (below) and the dreamy cinematography of the film Picnic at Hanging Rock (bottom). I think it's safe to say ballet is a current trend in fashion.

Candelaria







I wish I could fly over to Paris right now and have a cocktail and some tacos at Candelaria, the new taqueria/cocktail den designed by David Rager and Cheri Messerli. It's so thoughtfully designed and decorated - they commissioned several artists to help complete the space. Sort of modern and bohemian at the same time, it would be my favorite place to hang out if it were located in New York City.
