iris van dongen’s art is really incredible.  large scale drawings featuring models that are at once iconic, or as figures of mythology, as she describes it.  much of her work features skulls as part of the clothing to “show that it is from the present day: a symbol from a contemporary subculture and, at the [...]

it’s been well noted that cw’s stylista has some issues.  anne slowey is a little, um, over the top, and oddly doesn’t seem to be able to walk well in heels.  the breakfast food challenge from the season premiere was amusingly lame, and why are the contestants doing layout with glue sticks when they have [...]

this modern amusement reversible hoodie definitely caught my eye. how can you not love versatility on an item that can be used for light layering? with the weather finally beginning to cool down, this $95 hoodie is a steal. i’m already imagining wearing it heart side out with just a basic dark [...]
