"I came across her profile (I think) two days ago and I was just stunned. Her work tells so many stories, the whole atmohsphere in her works is just unbelievable and evoke a lot of emotions in me (the second “series” on her site is so … well view it for yourself). She is nly 19 years old and I think we will hear and see a lot of more of her work."

Who Doesn't Heart Tim Burton?

2009-09-20T10:56:00.000-07:00

Tricks and Treats

2009-09-20T10:47:00.000-07:00

Shot by Tim Walker and entitled Tim Burton's Tricks and Treats, it's based on Tim Burton's universe and features the man himself alongside a dazzling array of goth frocs and some of his defining characters.
If something rings a bell or looks somewhat familiar, that's because this wasn't the first these two Tim's got together! They'd already collaborated on the editorial Tales of the Unexpected, inspired by Roald's Dahl's work.

Also, don't forget to check the other Tim Burton inspired editorial!

Hunky Scarecrow Hits the Hay in This Wonderland Magazine Spread

2009-09-08T16:54:00.000-07:00

Someone thank the Wizard (and Wonderland magazine, at that), because im loving this editorial featuring a smoldering Viggo Jonanson in an ostensibly post-barn-frolic. Matthes Brooks shot the tousled Viggo as the only scarecrow guaranteed to attract all the birds to the yard: Dressed in a burlap hat, hobo-clown patterns, and a knit turtleneck pulled ninja-style over his face, Viggo shows that even without a lint roller and comb, looking dashing is as easy as a quick toss in the haystack. Anyone up for a game of King of the Mountain? [Knight Cat]

Crisp

2009-08-14T16:11:00.000-07:00

Newly acquired spiral shaver below. I use it for cucumbers so that I can wrap my sushi rolls with them, but I tried it with a potato, and it started shaving out a long sheet of potato..........You can see I am spinning the wheel so the potato feeds through the blade.

It sort of looks like tissue paper. I'm holding the spiral shaved sheet of one potato in the picture below.. Its pretty long..

This long sheet above now becomes 8 small sheets, uniform in size and visuals.

Flavors; Red pepper thread, prosciutto + red peppercorn, cilantro, and Vanilla. Mr. Adria is well known for his Vanilla whipped mashed potatoes. I thought I could try this vanilla flavor for potato chips...Gross? Maybe. I quite like it. I had never tried Vanilla under the savory context. My plan is to layer these ingredients in between two sheets, sort of like mummifying them or sandwiching them so they are "Trapped".

Vanilla seeds...

Spreading the vanilla on the potato sheet.

So you can see in this image I just sandwiched the flavors in.

Baking rack. This is a waved baking rack made especially for baking french baguettes but I used it to create waves for the potatoes while baking them. This rack is also good because it has a perforated wall which lets the steam from the potato disappear, allowing for a crispier chip.

I noticed Cilantro had the most moisture. Next time I will dry my cilantro first.

Sprayed with PAM, and baked at 250 F for 40-50 minutes. Its more like dehydrating and baking at the same time.

You can see I have a very strange fixation with Vanilla and potatoes...

I think these chips are good for snacking while drinking alcohol... before a dinner party. You know, when everyone just starts to get to your place and the food's not quite ready yet but people are eager to drink...I think the potato+prosciutto combo is better than serving Beef Jerky. Why do I sound like Ina Garten right now? I'm much too young to be talking like this and I don't even like dinner parties..

Early Sydney Mug Shots

2009-07-28T14:27:00.000-07:00

If mug shots still looked this good, I think I'd go break the law just to have a nice portrait done. Again with the form and function and one following the other and all that. These were mostly taken by police photographers for the simple purpose of getting a clean picture of the accused, and a decent full body pic as well, that's it. But, a century and some odd years later, and you got a real nice looking series of artistic portraits. Check out the style some of these cons are throwing down. Breaking the law just isn't as chic as it used to be, now is it?

Hello darlings! My name is Alya from Pomegranate and Patchouli and I’m guest blogging here for the lovely Tina. I hope you enjoy my posts over here. Moving on..

Record The Day is a beautiful blog that posts daily collages using images from magazines, scraps (if that’s what she wishes to call them) of paper and jotted notes fastened to record cards that are then stamped with the day’s date.

I love love love her collages. It is such a creative process and each one is better than the other. Think of it like a diary but instead of writing, she uses images.

Take a look around her blog. I promise you, you will love what you see. I’m also a big fan of her other blog Lobster and Swan, which is devoted to her photographs and findings from around the web.

Holi - the Festival of Colors

2009-07-19T17:47:00.000-07:00

Last Wednesday (March 11th), people in India and other countries with large Hindu populations celebrated Holi, the Festival of Colors. Holi is celebrated as a welcoming of Spring, and a celebration of the triumph of good over evil. What that translates to in action is an enthusiastic dropping of inhibitions, as people chase each other and playfully splash colorful paint, powder and water on each other. People also attend bonfires to commemorate the story of Prahlada, a Hindu figure and devout follower of Lord Vishnu who prevailed over his father and the demoness Holika with the power of his devotion. Collected here are photos from this year's Festival of Colors.

Ink Calender - Oscar Diaz

2009-07-17T14:33:00.000-07:00

"designer Oscar Diaz has designed a calendar that uses the capillary action of ink spreading across paper to display the date.

Each month, a bottle of colored ink spreads across a sheet of paper embossed with numbers, colouring them in as it goes.

Here’s some info from Diaz:

–

TITLE : INK CALENDAR
DESIGNER: Oscar Diaz ( http://www.oscar-diaz.net)
DIMENSIONS: 420 X 595 mm
MATERIALS: Paper and ink.

Project Description

Ink Calendar make use of the timed pace of the ink spreading on the paper to indicate time. The ink is absorbed slowly, and the numbers in the calendar are ‘printed ‘ daily. One a day, they are filled with ink until the end of the month. The calendar enhances the perception of time passing and not only signaling it. The aim of the project is to address our senses, rather than the logical and conscious brain.

The ink colors are based on a spectrum, which relate to a “color temperature scale”, each month having a color related to our perception of the weather on that month. The colors range from dark blue in December to three shades of green in spring or orange and red in the summer."

I Am Curious (BLACK)

2009-07-16T02:31:00.000-07:00

Superman’s Girl Friend Lois Lane #106

Browsing through my local comic book store I decided to check out a box of Superman’s Girl Friend Lois Lane. Flipping through the issues I ran across issue no. 106 entitled I am curious (BLACK)! The cover depicts Lois Lane placed into a machine. Superman flips a switch and Lois magically transforms into a black woman for 24 hours. Realizing that this is the ultimate in cheesy comics I had to pick it up.

The story begins with Lois assigned to do a story on Metropolis’s urban area that Lois refers to Little Africa. It seems that all black people refuse to submit to an interview done by Miss Whitey. Young children, old blind ladies, and even people on the street hate white people. With Superman’s help Lois is placed inside the Plastimold and the Transformoflux Pack invented by Dahr-Nel, Kryptonian Surgeon. Apparently this machine is meant to change white people to black people. You have to wonder if Superman uses this machine often?

Disguised as a black woman, Lois proceeds to experience what it is like as an African American. Benny the friendly neighborhood taxi-driver refuses to pick up Lois the black woman. On the subway, the white men stare at her, making her feel completely uncomfortable. Lois eventually meets the radical anti-white black rebel who earlier called her “whitey.”

The radical Dave Stevens, taken in by this fine black woman, is distracted when he witnesses a drug deal going down. Telling Lois to “Stay here! This is a man’s business!” Dave really enforces the social inequality of the story. Refusing to let the gangsters sell their poison, Dave confronts them and is shot during the struggle. Superman, who always keeps his eye on Lois, saves the day flying Dave and Lois to the hospital.

At the hospital Dave needs a blood transfusion but, the hospital is out of O negative blood. Realizing that she can help, Lois states in a very shocking way “I—I’m O-negative!” Here we see the underlying theme of the book highlighted; underneath, we are all the same. After she donates the blood, her 24 hours are up and she reverts back to the white Lois Lane. When Dave awakes to see that Lois is not a beautiful black woman, but the cracker he snubbed, he is at first shocked, realizing then you can’t judge a book by its cover. Superman informs Lois “If he still hates you… with your blood in his veins… there may never be peace in this world!” Luckily for us they all get along in the end.

Light Time

Designer Harc Lee has created a Time switch wall clock which is a clock has a flip-switch for people who want to turn the time off for a while. As soon as you turn the switch on again, the clock starts to light up from the back and show the actual time.

Design - Neil Ashmead GTS

2009-07-13T23:21:00.000-07:00

“FULLER recently completed Elderton’s Neil Ashmead GTS (Grand Tourer Shiraz), a tribute wine who’s packaging fittingly celebrates the life and loves of the late Neil Ashmead, a passionate South Australian wine man who had a lust for life and a love of fast cars.

Playing on Neil’s passions and reflecting his outgoing personality, the design pays homage to the Holden GTS – complete with go-fast stripes, shark gills and topped with a 6-speed gear stick. A winner’s wreath neck-label completes the package.

A package that is unique and takes a risk – just like the man himself.”

With a $200+ customer service fee it sure should be doing styling magic and it seems to be accurate when it comes to the right way to style.. yet how is this different from any other fashionista blog? they claim to give you personal assistance and care, so if you gotz the dough i say go for it.

now i dont have any pictures for your viewing pleasure just a link because the site is under strict copyright unfrigment security, i would have posted a screen capture but frankly it just pissed me off a tad..

Photography - Dina Goldstein

2009-07-12T23:37:00.001-07:00

I fell really stupid seeing i never made a post about the Fallen Princesses Project by Dina Goldstein. It's a truly "magical" collection of photos, not to get to philosophical but it really graps the concept of how the childhood innocence, reality, and media clash.

JPG mag says they will be exibitioned in october this year.

These remind me of a novel i read in 8th grade, Briar Rose. It goes into the origins of these classic fairy tales.. Anyway the Brother Grimm's stories are really worth getting into.

Ron Winter

2009-07-12T23:28:00.000-07:00

I really like Ron Winter's work, not only does he do fantastic graphics and editing most the music videos his done i really like. His keyboard drums project is just too good.

Sølve Sundsbø For Surface To Air Collection

2009-07-12T23:18:00.000-07:00

The collection will feature 3 of a kind – 3 dresses, 3 tops, 3 bags and will be available in 20 stores worldwide. Only 3 pieces of each style will be available in each store. The collection is all about print, about image. Solve Sundsbo’s photography declined in bags, dresses and tops doesn’t sound that bad, does it?

I admit I like the bird print more than any other, how about you? It’s amazing what a simple but amazing photography print can do for an ordinary piece of fabric! (via)

Movie - Paper Heart

2009-07-12T23:09:00.000-07:00

There is a fine line between sweet and saccharine -- especially when it comes to romantic comedies. But "Paper Heart," the new docu-romcom from actress Charlyne Yi, not only avoids veering into a candy coated forest of feelings, it manages to make you laugh, cry and lust for the person sitting next to you.

The pseudo documentary about Charlyne's quest to find and understand love -- maybe with Michael Cera? -- hits theaters on August 7 but you can get a sneak peek at one of the movie's many extras, featuring Jason Ritter waxing poetically about women right now!

2009-07-11T22:21:00.000-07:00

bell bolero vest : blowing my mind / two-piece boots : phenomenal phenomenal phenomenal / 14 buckle bustier belt : do i really have to say anything about why this is amazing? / suede and jersey legging trousers : want to wear these forever, look incredible with the boots / rabbit fur vest : against my views but cool

five photos of just how insanely wearable this beautiful double breasted cardigan is

AD logo tank : the only logo i’d be into wearing / draping bell necklace : i see this taking all the black shirt in my closet and giving them all new life / oversized poncho sweater : imagine throwing this on after leaving the beach or when it’s really cold, soooo perfect / oversized pleated poplin top : i know, the only white piece on the list but the cut is so great it was hard to deny this one / belted suede skirt : don’t even need to explain why this one rules / long belted cardigan : imagine this over everything i own, un-belted and super long, nothing beats this / asymmetrical bell vest : the crosses on the backside look so rad, all the ways to wear this make it such a smart purchase / off the shoulder draping top : have never owned anything like this but it’s hard not to love it with that cut

three button hooded jacket : complete radness / long fringed cardigan : pirate-wise, this is so killer and was one of the most stunning looks on the runway / gauze polka dot shirt : gauze & extra long sleeves WIN / ribbed drawstring trousers : honestly i’ve never worn anything remotely relaxing as this looks but i’d totally borrow these/ thin fringe scarf : we don’t own any scarves but i’d be ok with this one / long curved vest : just so perfect / triple buckle suede sneakers : Ann knows exactly what she’s doing and this is why every pair of sneakers she makes are completely to die for / feather necklace : yes, please!

AFTER ALL THAT …. if we had our way, this is what we’d be pre-ordering for F/W from my favorite woman on earth, ANN DEMEULEMEESTER .

Alice Dellal and her boyfriend Ross Tanner running all around in the French countryside for Jalouse’s Juin issue… I think everyone wants to have this shoot with their old man.. I really love it.. Olympia Le Tan’s customized Wrangler ‘Sweet Jane’ jacket is also pretty much the best thing ever..

Marc Jacobs dress

Today i saw a women carrying a Miss Marc tote and was totally jealous, though it was just a simple tote she looked so classy and well though out. Me wantz

Though this dress has a large print it feels very simplistic and versatile, i really like it.

Im super into deep colors like this purple (the picture is just bright) and nudes, Sui's quirky critters make me smile. Which reminds me, im so stocked for the Anna Sui collection for target.

BCBG Max Azria bag

i really love bags in nude colors, im a little sick of studs on everything even bags but i still like this one a little

Rykiel / Stuart / Margiela

Martin Margiela tee

Im certain i've seen this at threadless.com

Jill Stuart sweater dress

I'd like this but shorter, the muave color is nice but would look bland on pale skin =/

Sonia Rykiel dress

i love the red and pink combo

2009-07-11T15:37:00.000-07:00

Karen Millen dress

mermaid ocean

BCBG Max Azria dress

a hue closer to mint and this would be grand

Marc Jacobs bag

love.

Vereteno dress

reminds me of china patterns

Eley Kishimoto dress

INC International Concepts dress

cute and fruity, a little bit much but its cute

Florals

2009-07-11T15:34:00.000-07:00

Chloe dress

More of a print, the excess fabric on the side i'd imagine would look really nice worn.

Prada Dress

Not something i'd wear maybe if i were tying to look more mature

Prada skirt

i like the contrast of the pink and blue hues

Paul and Joe dress

I really hate the fit of this dress its the kind that makes you look way younger, maybe with some high heels i suppose. The print would make great bed sheets though lol

Asabell Marant floral hammer pants

A quirky spin on the trend, not sure how easily this is to pull off but fun regardless..

Open Ceremony

I really dig these graphics.. im afraid i'll get sick of it soon. Seeing they been popping up everywhere =/ dido for the intergalactic constellation prints.. (my phychic reading for fall/winter anyway) Lately i been wearing alot of mix-matched florals and prints and stark solid colored outfits.

for $80 bucks its not a horrible deal..
