I can’t blame it all on nick knight. there’s guy bourdin and juergen teller (whom nick mentored) as well. I got a subscription to W magazine in highschool and these three men gave me something to daydream about in chemistry class: fashion photography. (mr. miller, there was a perfectly good reason for me to write [...]

I like olga ert’s sculptures of little creatures covered in flowers. I think she’s primarily an illustrator and most of her work is done under the name “inkpanda”, you can check out her work on behance, blogspot, and flickr. I believe she’s japanese, but lives in russia and speaks russian on all her online profiles. [...]

I will probably never get this purple cactus jewelry tree. if I bought everything on etsy I loved I would be in massive amounts of debt. I have all my jewelry tucked away in little drawers on my work desk, I could probably buy three of these cactus jewelry displays and still not have enough [...]

I’m pretty handy with photoshop, I’ve been interested in hyperrealism for a few years now. I’m toying around with the idea of selling some prints of hyperrealistic digital paintings/illustrations. all the tests projects I’ve done have been paintings of original photographs so this could be a way for me to get more involved in photography [...]

- silver tree branch necklace by bumblesea – off white converse all star high top chuck taylors (took me a few months to find off white but it was worth it) – white ripped skinny jeans via topshop – white tiger striped cashmere sequin tank top by rebecca taylor – off white blouse via eruca [...]

I’m loving these boho hair crowns and accessories on etsy from whichgoose. her floral arrangements have been a source of inspiration for a new jewelry line I’m working on for bumblesea. not to mention the product photography is great, often featuring the designer herself, emily zych. this photo of the “cocoon” butterfly hair comb is [...]

meet leanne lim-walker, a very talented young photographer I was lucky enough to stumble across on flickr. she’s only 19 years old and is self taught at photoshop. she’s been working on photography for three years. she’s younger and less experienced than I am, but she could kick my ass with an SLR. jealous.. but [...]
