gisele bundchen by mario testino . . . for british vogue!

. . . mario testino one of my all time favorite fashion photographers, photographs gisele for the cover of the december british vogue issue! 

i absolutely love bright & colorful covers like this & also love when an actual model is featured on the cover as opposed to an actress. 

lovely december to all!

uni container by industreal

glazed white porcelain uni container

glazed black porcelain uni container

uni containters by industreal 

. . . i collect vintage milk glass, also known as the "poor man's porcelain" which by the way, i've never paid more than $1.00 for!  so, when i came across these containers - my eye was instantly drawn to the white one.  

although the black is quite stunning too!  

lovely stuff!

michelle tholen's color & form series!





. . . today i'd like to share a few of my favorite pieces from san francisco based artist michelle tholen's color & form series - just stunning!

"Colors, light, shadows and perspective in the sky drive Michelle Tholen to create. 
Simplicity of landscapes reveal profound depth, drive imagination and create mystery." 

i really love this quote from her website - i don't go a day without looking up into the amazing & ever changing sky! 

if you happen to be in san francisco she's exhibiting today at mcevoy fine art.

isabel marant spring 2012 @parisfashionweek







. . . i love a comfy, slightly slouchy look & feel to my sweaters & tee's & i'm so loving isabel marant's spring 2012 looks! 

i've always been drawn to a chic boho look like + who wouldn't love a patchwork, embroidered skinny jean & you can never go wrong with the classic biker jacket cut. 

i know i'm jumping the gun with posting spring...i'll post fall-winter next!

enjoy my dears!
