Easy On The Eyes

/ / The beautiful Sabrina from afterDRK rocking some nice eye accessories. I've been burdened with bad eyesight which makes wearing sunnies pretty complicated (if I'm wearing contacts, I cant wear prescriptive sunnies, if I'm not wearing contacts I can't wear non prescriptive sunnies, I can't just casually put them on my head when it gets shady, because then I can't see...etc). I'll just try the coloured mascara instead, so 90s. Viva la Spice Girls! Images via afterDRK

Flesh & Bone

The more I look at this kind of imagery, the more I love it. Striking and weird. (yup, Givenchy jewellery still a thing for me).

Two albums on high rotation for me at the moment 'In The Grace of Your Love' - The Rapture and 'A Different Kind Of Fix' - Bombay Bicycle Club. Not exactly new but great. What You Want is my favourite track of BBC's album and here you go:

Big Decisions

Recently I got informed by my university that could graduate at the end of this year if I wanted to, due to the induction of a new design degree that only goes for 3 years and then 1 year more is optional to attain honours (which includes a major project). 

I am so tempted to graduate this year! But I really haven't mentally planned myself to graduate in 2 months! I would also like a major project to design and invest my time in. However I would really like to be done with my degree and work! Lots and lots of things to consider!

On another note, my phone is riddled with photographs of artwork details so that I can later go look them up. This is one of them from aagggesss ago, Rebecca Dagnall, when she was featured in the photography gallery on Oxford Street. I couldn't find any higher res photographs, which is such a shame because her work really needs to be seen large. They're beautiful and creepy photographs of trees that have been manipulated. This series is called "There is unrest in the forest, there is trouble in the trees".

Brilliant

Beautiful and Weird. The best combination. You may have seen Maurizio Anzeri's work before. He has adapted old photographs from flea markets by embroidering over them. He also worked on a great Dazed editorial (wish I owned that issue!), shown below.






Milda Cergelute, Gintare Pasakarnyte and Greta Babarskaite collaborated together to create these Anzeri inspired works. Unlike Anzeri, there is something a little reminiscent of Catholic depictions of Saints here.

Biennale of Sydney 2012

This year I really enjoyed the Biennale at Cockatoo Island. I also hit up the MCA and The Thousands Biennale pop-up bar. Here are some phone snapshots from it all!

Like the Boys

I really want a Herschel Supply Co backpack...


I want the Woodlands or Heritage one but not sure on which colour. I like the cream better, but it will properly get dirty quickly...

The Drop

I Shazam'd this from the Jingle Jangle dj set at The Thousands/Biennale pop up bar last night... I really like it, and the drop is amazing. I find this video's visuals highly creepy though - I never liked masks.

I recommend listening to the song with a good pair of headphones! I think it might be on repeat all day, similar to when I discovered this cover.

The Gentlewoman

I finally got around to adding my website design project to my online portfolio. You can see it here. The project was to create a website for a magazine and I chose The Gentlewoman, which is the female counterpart of Fantastic Man magazine.

In The Grace of Your Love

Dream kitchen - doesn't look like it has a Belfast sink though...

If he was hot in a H&M campaign, he's going to be hot on a motorcycle...

I just like the handwriting.
