Sometimes we need the silence in this hectic, frenzied world. Photographer Matthew
Donaldson freezes his daughter, model Lily Donaldson, for a quiet moment. Time stands still.
She’s such a beauty. A wonderful combination of images, shadows and music.
Finally the results of the hairdressing shooting last summer received. I must admit that I’m really proud of the hair and make-up artists, the photographers (and not least of the little assistant).
Thanks for the great photos and I hope we’ll eventually work together again.
What do independent, sophisticated but emotional women want in their wardrobe? Wolfgang Joop definitly knows it! WUNDERKIND celebrates a sense of freedome, which defies sartorial conventioans and an unique view on modern elegance.
Besides the sweet women’s wear you can also buy WUNDERKIND eyewear and men’s wear.
Bant is a monthly music, cinema and art magazine based in Istanbul/Turkey. The mag has been published for over 4 years and the 50th issue is about OBEY.
For the past 4 years, Bant has been a platform for sharing and discovering local and international talents, as well as including and interviewing recognized names.
On the backside of a OBEY poster (out of the mag) I found interviews with the American artist Shepard Fairey, Ruth Fisher and others. Names that actually never had a chance to be inclued into the magazine, so far. I’m thankful to have this poster in addition to the magazine, because it’s written in english.
The magazine is completely in turkish, but unfortunately, the pictures and illustartion are inspiring me.
Shepard Fairey, and called it a phenomenological study of the subtle effect of advertising mechanisms in the urban metropolitan area.
The result was the first and most famous internationally Street Art series, whose reputation has been caused only by Banksy so far.
The OBEY artwork attempts to stimulate curiosity and bring people to question both the art and their relationship with their surroundings.
Because people are not used to seeing advertisements or propaganda for which the product or motive is not obvious, frequent and novel encounters with the sticker, posters and streetart provoke thought and possible frustration, nevertheless revitalizing the viewer’s perception and attention to detail.
Now I need a OBEY shirt…but which one?! This are my favorites.
Of course, I’m a fan of photography, especially in the field of fashion. What I see in the Spring / Summer Lookbook of the label Band of Outsiders surpasses everything!
The mood and the colors with an iconic Polaroid-aesthetic are hitting my taste to the fullest!! It’s brilliant how much influence the photography takes on the presentation of collections!
The lookbook is showing the versatility and timeless nature of Band of Outsider’s signature aesthetic. A list of retailers of the leading American label can be seen at Band.BandofOutsiders.com.

Sometimes it is like a little fight…who wears the best outfits…who is listening to the best music, who writes the best lyrics and who the fuck rules the world?

Since hours I’m sitting on my desk and I’m working on a damn boring project for university…but what would I do without the little messages and all the great songs which are distracting me!?
Thank you for all the 80ties, I need to freak oooon! Got more? I think I post one of the best, here we go:
I’m arrived in Berlin right now! I was out for a coffee with Sebastian Waters. Sebastian lives in Berlin and just started with his new studio Modus Operandi.
Sebastian is a part of designers, developers, and curators of content with an intense dream to find meaningful and lasting relationships with clients.
It was nice to talk with this creative head and to exchange some experiences. Tomorrow I’ll post some more Berlin photos. I’m glad to be here now. It’s time for a glas of wine with my girl.
I wish you a nice saturday night!
As announced yesterday, I was in the evening at the vernissage “Le tigre – J’ai mis un tigre dans mon vélo” RVCA presented and supported by Kinki at theflashgib in Stuttgart.
It was a great and funny evening. I collected a lot of new impressions, admired the photographs, installations and paintings and met some friends I haven’t seen for a long time.

…it’s my opinion…and also the opinion of “Schwarz auf Weiss”. The Berlin based publishing house “from here to fame” has a quiet impressive output on street culture related books.
via fromheretofame.com
One of this books named “Schwarz auf Weiss” seeks to make style the true center of attention. The pages are filled with a fine selection of vector graphics, styles and characters. International street artists and worked together and around the philosophy “style needs no color”.

Today is a wonderful day. I was at the gym and took a sauna with a friend. The moaning there is almost frightening ;). But it was still very relaxing.
Tonight theflashgib (Stuttgart) invites for the vernissage “Le tigre – J’ai mis un tigre dans mon vélo presented by RVCA“. I’ll try my hand with the Canon 450D for the first time. Maybe I’ll go even slightly out around to capture this sunny day in Germany for you.
Tomorrow I will post a new outfitpictures and a small report about the vernissage.
The smartest way to get around. This cute little car looks good without leaving a nasty skid mark all over mother earth.

Today, I got a little tip about a great woman. Nina Stiller, a dear friend of mine, has launched her photoblog today. From now on she’ll report bout her shootings, especially from the fashion and music area.
But there are not only images to be seen. I’m happy to enjoy more of her words!
She invites you on a journey. I’ll go with her. You, too?!

…no you don’t! I’ve done important things the last few days and experienced a lot. The fashion week is almost over but I will still tell a lot about it.
Now I just relax, listen to music and eat great pizza. I look forward to some developments in my life in the coming weeks. And you should look forward to further reports on the latest trends in streetwear section!
Now a picture and a song for you, and a hot shower for me. Then partying begins! It’s Saturday, let’s shake and jump!
Today I found this photographies of the story called “Between” by the finnish design studio Tokyo22. It’s a series of images inspired by one of the many dilemmas of our time.
In any case this photography-artwork works really trippy to me, I like it because of the composition of the background, the clothes and the make-up.

After the lecture I went out to the city to check out some sale offers at COS and Zara. After that I decided to visit the new store/gallery “theflashgib” in Stuttgart, the city where I’m studing. I’m crazy about the Forfex Spaceboots I saw there. I like the resemblance to a ‘Spaceboot’. Bold, soft and eye-catching!
Now the prject between PAM and Forfexhas taken a more refined step in terms of colors. This Spaceboot design has featured a minimal black and white colorway, as well as a played down white, grey and beige piece.
But I think I like the colorful silhouette more than the minimal black and white colorway. It’s a Spaceboot, they have to look spacy! ;)
Do you know the documentary “TALHOTBLOND”? I Can’t wait to see this movie. It’s about the true story of an Internet love triangle that takes place entirely online. Lies lead to murder in real life, as a teenage vixen aka ‘talhotblond’ lures men into her web.
She wants revenge, and unleashes a fantasy on line that escalates into real life murder…
Check out the website here: talhotblond.com.
I’m back at home after 7 hours on the roads, with white white snow around me. Do you guys like snow? I’m pooped and hungry now!!! Tomorrow some new outfits. Today only a mood picture.
Enjoy the afternoon! Maybe some more words later, now I need a drink and something to eat! Cheers boys & girls!

Dear readers,
this year 2009 is almost over… looking back is one thing we all do most in this time…remembering good moments, happy moments but also bad moments and sad moments…
Listening to music that we heard while we experienced all that in the passed year…feelings return and makes us re-live all this moments for a second time…
i´m happy- it feels good to know that everything that happens has got its special reason…the last days of december I want to get totally into this feeling, I´m on a journey with myself and the things I love…this is why I won´t name anything here..no label, no place, etc..Let it be.
I wish you all the best!
I don’t know why, but Irina Lazareanu is sexy! I have to say, I don’t like her face very much, and to add, I think she’s a little to skinny. But anything makes her sexy…maybe it is the Rock’n'Roll attitude.
This picture is out of the eighteenth issue of Metal magazine. Shot by Nico and styled by Shiwa Lee.
The last picture is out of the current QVEST magazine (and I love this mag!!). The ex drummer girl of the babyshambles it quiet sexy and in the mag there is a whole fashion story, produced by Simon Rasmussen, with model Irina!
I have so many dreams that sometimes I wonder how on earth time will stretch its elasticity to enable me achieve them all.
Only 1 more working day! Hooray for the holidays!!
