Hearts, Stars and Ponies. We're In Love!
Call me a cynic, but every time I spot some PDA-extreme couple taking overly-staged engagement shots in some pseudo-urban location, I have the instant urge to throw up a little bit in my mouth. It’s not that I’m anti-love, nor anti-romanticism, and certainly not anti-photography (if such a thing exists), it’s just that I usually feel that the cheesy engagement photoshoot is just that – full of...

Looking Forward to Spring
Thank you Trendland for this beautiful series of illustrations from Natalia Grosner, interpreting looks from New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012. While the weather outside is frightful, it’s lovely to get a glimpse at what’s to come, and in such a light-hearted, whimsical style :) p.s. the phrase “like a sexy mermaid” makes me laugh.  All images from trendland.net

Jenna's Pick
In case you missed it, Jenna Lyons (President and Creative Director of J.Crew, and my professional girl crush) is selling her Park Slope townhouse that she bought in 2004 with her soon-to-be-ex-husband Vincent Mazeau. Needless to say, the house is as dope as Jenna’s wardrobe, done in her signature relaxed style that effortlessly blends high end design pieces with a relaxed bohemian vibe. If...

Body Envy
This series of photographs from ESPN features world-class athletes, showing off their incredibly toned physiques in nothing but their birthday suits. Not surprisingly, they look pretty good. Guess this means I should get my ass to the gym… 24 hours a day for the next 3 to 4 years. Damn you egg nog and Christmas treats!! Stephanie Gilmore, professional surfer. Louie Vito, professional...

My Newest Obsession.
Hi all. Sorry I’ve been MIA this week. Things have been epically insane! But here’s hoping this pretty post on Piccsy will make you forgive and forget my absence :) One of my recent obessions is Piccsy.com, a constantly-updating site that provides never-ending inspiration in the form of photographs, illustrations and found images. I go through stages where I obsessively check it every...

The Paris Lovefest Continues
Looks like I’m not the only one obsessed with Paris right now. Fellow Tumblr blogger, Jamie Beck (From Me To You) recently took a trip to my favourite city to shoot a cinemagraph for Breast Cancer Awareness. She documented her trip with this post, a visual love story to la ville lumière. Here are three of my favourites… If you haven’t been on From Me To You, you should...

The Best of Paris from The Sartorialist
Are you sick of hearing about Paris yet?  What a silly question, does anyone ever get sick of hearing about Paris? It’s been more than a month since my epic trip and I’m still longing for the fierce fashions and fabulous backdrops of the City of Lights. The good news is I can live vicariously through the envy-inspiring posts on The Sartorialist. Sure there are also amazing shots from other...
