Rodarte x Open Ceremony 2011 Lookbook Concept

These photos have me breathe-taken. I love them as just images but, since it's a lookbook it's especially impressive. Miss Moss is right, all other lookbooks will be jealous.

Thrifty Round-up

This morning's blog browse session seemed to be very thrift themed so, I decided to share these lovely folks and their lovely finds.

Poppytalk

The Dainty Squid

The Drifter and the Gypsy

The New Gypsies

I grew up a hippie's kid so, I took immediate interest in this series The New Gypsies by Iain McKell. I love the portraits. The images are very dream-like, makes you think their life must be all grandiose with homemade kombucha and sage. Of course it's probably difficult at times as well, like the part where your parents don't have a bank account.

Clue

I love this editorial, In the Hall with the Candlestick, for a number of reasons. Clue is one of my all time favorite movies, so hilarious. As a child I played Clue a lot or I should say I used to stare at the rooms on game board and make believe that I lived in a mysterious mansion.  This editorial has an inconsistency in style (which was off-putting at first) then I saw that each was a character from thegame/film  and warmed up to it. I especially love Mrs. White's ensemble and styling (the first photo below).

Cabinet Article

I wanted to share this article from Cabinet Magazine for no other reason beside it's fascinating.

Studio Visit with Tom & Kitty Latane

When I was young maybe 12, my dad took me to Tom's shop for a visit. Tom taught me how to make a nail out of iron. It took me about 5 minutes to finish it. It took Tom about 2 seconds. I believe I still have the nail in storage somewhere. Earlier this month I went to visit Tom again with a different agenda.

Cigarette Card Friday

First off, I love Ertha Kit, what a voice. Second, this cigarette Card Friday is Four Square Book themed because I found a whole heap of them.

Emily Rothschild

If you have read my blog for a while or know me pretty well it's no mystery I have a slight(maybe more than slight) obsession with old medical stuff. So, when I came across Emily Rothschild's (awesome name btw) work I had a lot of fun looking through her pieces. Most have a medical theme and are stylized, functional, and a have hint of retro that's not over bearing. I wish I owned all of the items below. Clever ideas. Clever style.

Danielle Everine to be on Season 9 Project Runway

I just found out via Le Petit Connaisseur de la Mode that amazing local fashion designer and friend, Danielle Everine, will be on Season 9 of Project Runway!

I had done a studio visit with Danielle back in April when she was prepping for Voltage. I can't wait to see her work on Project Runway. Make it work Danielle!
