WWD featured an article today entitled “SpongeBob Gets a Makeover.” The title alone grabbed my attention and then the this photo… well needless to say I had to share it with you. This Sponge Bob, decked out by Karl Lagerfeld himself, was dressed in Lagerfeld’s famous fingerless gloves, black shades, and covered in gold. It [...]

These photographs of Paris nightlife in the 1930s are currently so inspiring to me! The night club dancers, like Josephine Baker, had a sense of glamour and eroticism about them. Hope you enjoy them as well!

I know Lady GaGa’s new music video for Bad Romance has been out for about a week now, but I couldn’t really call myself a design blogger without posting about this! It’s amazing. I wasn’t really a huge Lady GaGa fan until I saw this music video. Check out the amazing shoes and designs from [...]
Let’s Recycle…

All these products are obviously from recycled materials. However, what makes them unique is that the material they are derived from is not masked or hidden. With the pool ball earrings the original design creates a unique color blocking and the minimalistic asterisk of a computer key makes a bold ring. My favorite definitely has [...]

The New Bean Bag…

This Emilio Pucci Bean Clutch pushes the boundaries of typical handbags or clutches. This shiny, hard clutch hinges open and I assume fits comfortably into the palm of your hand. One negative, however, is that I am sure ever smudge or mark is very evident on the shiny surface. Doesn’t stop me for lusting for [...]

Here are some great new blogs I just came across: Jak and Jil is a blog of street style spotted on the streets of Paris, New York, London, etc. In my opinion, it is really beneficial to see the designs actually worn by the consumers verses just seeing it on a model on the runway. [...]

Originally from Almeria, Spain, Paco Peregrin has photographed for numerous publications, such as Vanity Fair, Cosmopolitan, and Zink. He incorporates the current trends seen in the fashion world with knowledge of photography to create works that have a balance between conceptual and commercial images. One of my favorite shoots entitled “Vision” was for a fashion [...]

I have been chosen to design my senior collection under the mentorship of Zac Posen. He is coming this weekend to review the work of the selected students, which makes me both excited and terrified! Posen is known for his dramatic evening wear, his focus on the female form, and his use of bright colors. It [...]
