Inspiration of the Week

So I have a few inspiring pictures I've found lately plus the recent discovery that...THE BLACK KEYS ARE COMING!!!! I've never thought that Washington University in St. Louis was cool enough to host such an awesome indie band.

Recent Art Work from Igor&Andre

Random Cool Picture..don't remember where I found it

Photography

Here's a few pictures I've been messing with on Iphoto. I kinda liked the outcome. I can't seem to resist making everything super high contrast haha I guess I like the dramatic effect.

Return to Grunge

What is this return to 90's grunge trend? I can't decide if I like it or not. I like the edginess the 90's grungesters exuded, but I think it could be translated in a more modern way...maybe mixing in some bleached, torn jeans with a more modern top, occasionally. As much I love the history of fashion I've never been too much of a fan of "backwards dressing."

 

If the Shoe Fits Wear It

I've had a ridiculous craving for ridiculously high shoes. The fashion department at my school is holding an open model call and I want to try out so badly, but you need to be 5'6'' at least which isn't that much of a height requirement but I'm a mere 5'3" and a quarter......sigh (never forget the quarter). Although, I was wondering if they would still let me walk if I showed them my Carrie-esque balance in heels. Heels that made me inches taller than 5'6"!!

a mirage of collage

Rodarte Fall/Winter 09....I adore the variety of not only colors and lines throughout Rodarte's fall collection but the contrast of textures as well. I'm not sure contrast is the right word. The variation amongst fabric, color, and design is more complimentary than contrasting, but they seem to make each other stand out as well. Rodarte definitely brought an editing eye to their creativity this season which means it will probably translate successfully into mainstream i.e. Forever 21, H&M.
