It’s still a work in progress so I don’t have a whole stack of images but I really wanted to show you this photo manipulation series by Daniel Barreto, a 21 year-old Boston-based artist. From miniature dive bars with lights to cozy apartments built inside forest trees, it reminds me of a grown-up version of [...]
Shabby chic; it’s a style you either love or hate, but once you get over the copious amounts of velvet in this rather remarkable property, it might grow on you a little– especially the price! The 40-acre Magnolia Pearl Ranch in Bandera,Texas is made up of 18 independent structures and is currently on the market [...]
Seriously, we need to stop Facebook-ing our loved ones for their birthdays or when the holidays come around. But if you type E-card into Google, you’ll probably be faced with a lot of options that make you think you might just be better off posting on their Facebook wall. Enter Paperless Post. A beautiful e-card [...]
So painstakingly detailed, you could easily mistake these photographs for real life-sized rooms straight out of a decorating magazine or a coffee table book for ‘grand home design’. A Tennessee entrance hall These are miniature models made on a scale of one inch to one foot– that includes the upholstery, textiles, rugs, curtains, hand-painted wall-paper and [...]
What a rare treat it would be to receive something like this today. It certainly makes emailing look pretty souless in comparison. I’ve come across wonderful collection of French letters and envelopes, romancing the lost art of doodling! Pierre-Stéphane Proust has been collecting these delicate novelties of the past and organising exhibitions for over 30 years. Browse the rest [...]
Just look at her. “You know you want me”, is what she’s saying. And it could be yours … if you’re ready to cough up anything from $5000-$15,000 … for a bicycle. But it’s so much more than just a bicycle! Behold the holy grail of bikes, the Spacelander, a fiber-glass design by Benjamin Bowdon that [...]
Okay so this is probably going to be more fun for my New Yaawker readers, who know the city’s streets like the backs of their hands, but if like me, you just love that sketch-booky/ void of perfectly straight lines/ children’s book nostalgia-kind of art, then I suspect you’ll fall head over heels for [...]
Looking at these installations, I imagine they are like clues indicating a secret trail somewhere otherworldly. Like something out of a children’s book, Hansel and Gretel have left a trail, but instead of white pebbles, this time they’ve left retro lamps. Alas it’s not Hansel and Gretel with a new flair for vintage objects, this [...]
A little fixer-upper in Paris– isn’t it what most of us dream about? Okay okay, so this 300m² Belle Epoque apartment just minutes from les Places Vendome and Place du Marché Saint-Honoré, may just be a little out of budget, but alas, it’s not for sale– it’s for rent! As in, rent it out for the [...]
It all started when I saw a beetroot salad Caprese and thought how much it reminded me of my favourite photograph of Frida Kahlo. So voilà, I hope you enjoy my little food & style matches. Just try not to ask why…! Frida Kahlo + Beetroot and Basil Pesto Insalata Caprese Steve McQueen + [...]
