PDA ALERT
There is nothing I love more than having my own space on a commute and these creations are just fabulous. I used to think my big sun glasses were a sufficent “Do not distrub” sign but these knock them out of the water by saying “NO Trespassing!”
I would love these for my early morning java’s on the weekends. Why do I always seem to run into someone important...
Sea of Shoes gets Urban
When I was sixteen I was excited about getting my driver liscense and having my curfew extrend from 11PM to 12AM…. Jane Aldridge, streetwear blogger/designer/photographer, is getting pumped collaborating her own fashion line at Urban Outfitters. At just 16-years-old Jane knows how to capture photos, put together the most stylish outfits and she most importantly knows good shoes.

Got cream?
I love this wallpaper treatment for The FWA: Favorite Website Awards designed by Jonas Erikson! Now, it could be my obsession with cream (in my coffee) that had me drooooling over this. It’s texturing is amazing… i love the splashes and bubbles; it’s rich and velvety.

Time for me to Brag: My friends smell pretty
I am always on the prowl for a great perfume. I went through a 6-year-stint with Armani and now I am really loving Burberry. While skimming through the lines of Sephora I was so impressed by all of the packaging’s, typefaces and designs on perfume bottles. It made me wonder, what the heck are my fabulous girlfriends wearing these days and are perfumes like dogs? You know when owners start to...

All-A-BOARD
My absolute favorite book growing up was Christina Katerina and the Box. It was about a girl who took her parents refrigerator box and turned it into a spaceship, a dance floor and many other imaginative things and places. Christina K was an uber hipster, dreaming-up and creating her own worlds and I was obsessed with it. That’s why I love these Cardboard drawings dubbed My 100...
We didn't start the Fire
I found out about these colorful pieces on Notcot (where else?) and at first I thought they were some wild water bottles but then at closer inspection i realized that they are fire extingushers! I love the concept. Designe by Fire Design these bad boys are sizzzzzling.
CC SKYE Interactive
I love this interactive work by Mogollon, Inc and creative agency based out of Brooklyn. This CC SKYE pieces reminds me of my cut-&-paste collages that I would make for my friends on their birthday’s to celebrate all of the many things that remind me of them. Like a Starbucks cup, or Puma shoes, you get the point… Ahh these guys are really talented and i like it.
Digi Zombies:
These portraits by Russian photographer Oleg Duryagin give me the chills for two reasons a. they are stunningly beautiful and b. they are eerie. What he does is digitally remove eyebrows, eyelashes and makes their skin look flawless and inhumane. ahh, i love thiss!! If you want to be inspired please check out his website.

Diamonds are a girls best friend.
I am obsessed with the latest photo shoot of Swiss jeweller Majo Fruithof. Captured by Italian photographer Patrizio di Renzo the shoot is chic and magical. ahhh.. Love how the model looks like a porcelain doll. Perfection! I do however think the jewelery gets lost with all of the bodypaint textures; the last image showcases the jewelery the best in my opioion. love love love!

WatchShortly after GM announced bankruptcy they posted this 60-sec clip on Facebook and Youtube and it’s getting lots of attention, good and bad. I think it’s smart thinking on GM’s part to focus on the the positive and the future and not sulk on the negativity.
The campaign, from Deutsch, is all about the rebirth of GM having fewer models and more efficiencies. At the end of the...
