Silver Threads and Golden Needles

Some recent sources of inspiration and possibly also results of procrastination. Here we are:

Girl on a bicycle, London, 1960s. Photo by Phillip Townsend.

 I'm on a bit of an Anna Karina kick lately.

Young Leighton Meester shot by Sofia Coppola for "Prom Queens" in a 1990's edition of Nova. I love the colours!

Jane Birkin, 1966

Michelle Williams for "Boy" by Band of Outsiders

Lovely ceiling installation in Tokyo!

And it's always summer back in Alabama

I recently discovered the work of photographer Nick Meek, and I am pretty in love with it! His use of color in his photos is amazing, and they have such a nice feeling to them that I could just stare at them all day.

I felt like these photos were a good way to say goodbye to summer! More can be found here.

"With you, Sunday never ends"

Man, do I love Serge Leblon!






I also love this video...probably because I've always felt like Macaulay Culkin and I should be best friends. I just want to sit and eat pizza with him, and listen to his stories. Oh, and of course he would have to re-enact the home alone mirror-scream for me. There's no avoiding that one!

Strangeways Here We Come

Tomorrow is my last day of college! Tonight was our program graduation party, but a lot of us left early to finish a big assignment that is due tomorrow or never. And admittedly, to watch TV because we are geeks. Things are strange!

Sretsis

I have loved 'Sretsis' since last Fall, when I became determined that I would somehow find a way to buy one of their velvet or peter pan collared party dresses. However, I was unemployed so obviously that dream didn't work out, haha.

I really like their new collection. I know a couple of them are a bit princess-y, but I can't help but love them. Maybe it is because they have used my very favorite colour of ice blue, along with pale pink which I am really into lately. I love that they added those colours to the hair, too! It's so pretty, and they are posing with a fox in one photo!

The whole thing really just reminds me of something that I would draw, and it scares me a bit. Haha they need to get out of my mind. Only, if I were drawing this I think I would have exchanged the cats for some more foxes or something, just to add a bit of edge. Because you know, foxes are edgy! This post, which you've probably seen, pretty much sums up my wariness towards the kittens and such. I think these clothes are just fun to look at really.
