September 29, 2011 | in Designers, New Arrivals One of the most coveted dresses for fall/winter has arrived! Thank you Lauren Moffatt for dreaming this up!
Perfect dusty pink with a super soft camel leather band at the bottom. And how great is that chain detailing on the collar ?!
September 29, 2011 ...blogging for one day. i love this (moving) image though. i think my dad will like it, too. (he reads my blog every morning). see you in the shop tomorrow!
September 29, 2011 | in Shop Shots Two charming looks by Darling. In store now!
how lovely is this pale pink brocade dress with the prettiest beaded collar?! so vintage looking- but 'tis not.
(those are tiny water marks from the steamer- i swear)
these fancy earrings finish the look
i'm loving this effortless lace trimmed 1960's-esque piece. the arms are sheer and so so feminine
and the the delicate cuff is like jewelry in itself
but adding this playful fur pom pom ponytail holder to a pretty (side?) pony makes this flutter light piece more winter. (i LOVE winter whites!). when it's cold i'd wear this with opaque black tights.
in the window now! mention the blog to receive 15% off any of the above thru the weekend!
September 29, 2011 | in I ADORE!, Style Crush why am i JUST becoming aware of the phenomena of 3D printing machines?! these things are INCREDIBLE! digital input from three dimensional data creates solid three dimensional objects through a layer by layer process. i watched an episode of "My Design Life" last night and was formally introduced to the wonders of this technology. i shy away from tech anything. i received an iPad 2 for my birthday and it's still in the box simply because i'm scared of it. (i will make friends with it- i just need a series of tutorials). all the innovation in the world today is truly mind blowing. growing up i kicked and screamed through science and math classes. geometry was the only "math" subject that came naturally (perhaps because it is a "visual" logic?) algebra + calculus = torture for me. give me literature, art history and a thousand research papers to write and i am a happy girl. still to this day math, science, technology, etc. are kinda not my forte. BUT- if all those brainy concepts can produce beautiful design then sign me up. my mind is boggled that a printing machine can produce objects like this...
enter the "One Shot Folding Chair" by Patrick Jouin. this stunning stool EMERGES FROM A PRINTING MACHINE COMPLETE. there is no assembly- at all.
the "Fall of the Damned Suspension Light" by Luc Merx is another SPECTACULAR example. WHA???!!! the magical printing machine created something that human hands could never do
the "Snotty Vases" by Marcel Wanders is a series of 3D printed vases based on scans of airborne "snot" molecules. how clever.
i think i like technology now. i NEED one of these machines. but maybe i should get acquainted with that ipad first.
