Quentin Jones you are my hero

Quentin Jones, you are my hero and when I grow up I want to be just like you. I was meant to blog about this amazeeeng illustrator, animator and film maker ages ago and I just completely forgot and left all these images to gain electronic dust on my desktop. Quentin Jones, who is based in London, comes up with the most fascinating collages that one can just spend hours being entertained by, and her films are so rad!

wednesday things

The one thing I love about public holidays on a Monday, it makes the week just fly by, 2 more days to the weekend yay!
So i thought I'd do a post on a few things that have inspired me on this oh so lovely wednesday!

-The show must go on
Even without a fashionweek in Japan for AW11, it did not stop designers to have shows of their own or get their look books out. I really liked the collection "Youth Cult"  of G.V.G.V, which continues the theme of her SS11 collection "Wanderlust". A story of a girl who was travelling the world, and now gone back to her boarding school in England, maybe a little bit Gossip Girl inspired? Nevertheless I like it, with the sense of feminine vs masculine and the incorperation of traditional British fabrics such as tweeds, checks and pleads mixed with leathers and military style.

- Fashion illustrators on the up
I'm not sure it's that I've only started noticing it now, but fashion illustrators are definately becoming very popular.
Everytime I see an article on one I kind of secretely wish I had paid more attention in art class on how to make your watercolours work for you. I just really love the effect of watercolours. Maybe I'll give it a try, but untill then I will keep on enjoying these super talented folk!

Aurore de la Morinerie
- Electric blue
A colour I have spotted non stop since I left my appartment this morning, whether it be in the street or in shop windows. This colour is HOT!

- Paris Street look 
I really like on the Vogue website they have on a weekly basis a few street looks, and normally not the same as the ones you get on every single othe streetstyle blog. Here's one I particularly liked today.


- Shirt by  Rag & Bone
- Bag by Zara
- Socks by Happy Socks
- Sunglasses by Illesteva
- Shoes by Zara 

- Shoot Factory
Looking for a great location for your next production or photoshoot, why not have a look here.


Have a lovely Wednesday!

spring cleaning

I'm an image hoarder, if one can say that. Anything, mostly fashion and design related, gets saved onto my desktop. I just love researching things for fun and saving images that relate to the latest topic of my interest. However my poor darling computer needs a bit of a spring clean and a hell of a lot more organisation for the year that lies ahead.  So as part of my uncluttering I'm going to share some of my favourits.
Happy (belated) 2011, may this be a good one!
