nouvelle vague: spring dreaming



I’ve been listening to dreamy pop music non stop for the last few days. I blame the gorgeous gray weather,
I am left floating on the edge of fantasy and reality
waiting for spring sun with bated breath.

It’s been a wonderful past few weeks,
and I am going to keep the dream a live by creating my own little wish lists.
I figure if I put the thought out there,
perhaps the universe will allow it to manifest? I think so. I KNOW so.

Wish list one: Denim Daze

  1. Petit Bateau -  Marinier Sweater

  2. ASOS -Kuyichi Denim Playsuit

  3. Keds -  Champion White Classics

  4. Chanel - Nail Color in Nouvelle Vague (but of course)

  5. *Milan Kundera‘The Unbearable Lightness of Being’

  6. Eryn Brinie – Marina Chambray Jacket

  7. Urban Outfitters – Madison Wedge

  8. Proenza Schouler – PS 1 satchel


what do you covet?

* mind you I already own this book, I would just DIE for this particular cover and any information one would have on it.

piXXXelated

I’ve been meaning to clean up my image folders for sometime now and a rainy day such as this one seems a perfect time to do so. While this is an incredibly laborious process  I have come across a few visual gems that I have long since been forgotten and that includes the three images below.

PIXXXEL by Jean Yves Lemoigne and styled by Yang Hartono was commissioned by french magazine Amusment as part of their gallery series. I received a great number of responses when I posted these images on my POP blog about 5 months back. So I thought I’d relive the sexiness a little. Three dimensional shame mixed with sweat.

Dreaming Dasha



The Weeks of Dasha” is stunning conceptual fashion film project by Swedish cinematographer Emil Klang.  Here Klang fuses two of his favourite mediums to create a movie series about a fictional young Russian girl, Dasha, who moves to Stockholm and is followed for a year.

Klang has created 52 web-isodes showcasing beautiful  fashion pieces created by both international and Swedish designers all worn by the characters featured in the films. So far I have spotted Fifth Avenue Shoe Repair, Hope, Dagmar and Noir et Blanc in what I can safely call an amazing animated look-book.

I have posted the first week’s episode below, be sure to catch up and watch the rest here.

monday morning melodies #1


Butterflies tickle my insides
a quiet flutter at first.
One two three
wings beat a little faster now.
They multiply
pushing against the linings
hum beneath my skin.
Oh how i have missed this feeling.
I fear the butterflies will escape
up and out
scratch up through my through
rip out of my mouth.
So I bite.
Lips sealed tight.
