Talk About Eye Candy

I was browsing through Urban Outfitter’s beauty products and came across these ridiculous fake lashes! Pretty awesome right? I’d love to see someone sporting them in Fresher’s week, anyone up for the challenge?



Bewitch me WildFox!

Another awesome video from our friends at WildFox! This AW10 promo video is called “It’s Witchcraft” is directed by David Hache (other credits info can be found on the WildFox vimeo page). And just in case you were interested, the music is “Somewhere” by Dorion feat. B Rad & Jenny. Their site also includes a pretty fun story behind the fall line.

Here are some pretty cool freeze frames from Ujin Lee & Thomas Edward’s Mirrors (via Trendland). Ujin and Tom worked with two Sydney based fashion labels to create this beauty focused piece.

It’s not my style of choice, but it looks like baggy shorts have hit the runway in the form of Prada’s SS11 line. No it’s not the baggy, low-slung and ripped up cargos of the 90′s grunge era or hip-hop generation. yet with tailored classy twist. Besides my reluctance to the obvious wide legged silhouettes, I’m a pretty big fan of the fluid line.

NJAL’s Organic T-shirt Collection

NJAL (Not Just A Label) has launched their new organic, fair trade t-shirt collection. The collection is a collaboration with three design labels (Aoi Kotsuhiroi, Patrick Mohr, and Spon Diogo) NJAL choose specifically for their “sustainable sensibilities and eclectic style”. I also thought the video for the collection looked pretty cool! The shirts will be on sale starting Wednesday, 23rd June 2010, and are priced at £55/€65 each!

Not a big fan…

Although Vivienne Westwood‘s bondage shorts are fun and adventurous, I have to say I’m not a fan. Don’t get me wrong I’m all for innovation and testing the boundaries, but this particular piece of her Gold Label looks more like a glorified rock climber’s harness than anything else; there’s just too much going on.

I don’t want to set the world on fire

The French animation collective H5 created this amazing short film, Logorama. Originally presented at the Cannes Film Festival 2009, Logorama opened this years Sundance Film Festival and went on to win the 2010 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. The short film, running about 16 minutes, was directed by François Alaux, Herve de Crecy, and Ludovic Houplain (all part of the H5). (more…)



Fun, Flirty, Afshin Feiz

Afshin Feiz is a British designer who graduated from the avant gaurd Studio Bercot in Paris. In his earlier years he studied literature at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. Since 2004 Afshin Feiz’s fun, flirty and truly exquisite designs have been growing in popularity all over Asia, Europe and North America. I especially love how Afshin Feiz combined light and sophisticated fabrics and shapes with intricate ruffle detailing in his SS09 collection, ‘Sometimes You Just Have To Let Go’. It is romantic and feminine while still complex and engaging. Check out NJAL for more on Afshin Feiz. Can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!
