Wolf in Sheep Clothing

I recently chanced upon Wolf in Sheep clothing new Holiday 2010 collection. I personally love it because it's mesh between feminine meets edgy and classic meets sculptural .

Here's how the designer describes her clothing line:
wolf in sheep's clothing loves pastoral landscapes, escape, cityscape, sounds, movement, opposites, impermanence, the ephemeral and the everlasting.

we are about easy, trendless, quality design. clothes that transcend the short term trend cycle. we also understand that nothing is permanent, so our clothes are made with the idea of "aging beautifully" behind it.

See her whole collection here.

Keep Calm ....

Tattoos .... love them or hate them.

One of the sites that I frequent is Contrariwise.
It a website that showcases tattoos based on books ,poems,lyrics and many other literary sources.
This is one of the unique ones I've seen so far.
“I Go Back to May 1937.” The poem is there, on my arm, in its entirety. Olds is my most beloved living poet, and this poem speaks to me with my own work–taking life experiences and professing: “Do what you are going to do, and I will tell about it.” Olds once said that poetry comes out of her lungs, and now I have this reminder, this collection of gorgeous language, that tells me again and again: don’t forget to breathe, don’t forget who you are.

This installation in Paris ingenious! It's a public service announcement and i was surprised to see the final answer. What a creative way to get the message across for such a difficult world problem.

Brooke Fraser

I have yet to listen to New Zealand singer-songwriter Brooke Fraser's new album "Flags" but I like how on her website they describe her music as the kind "that sounds like a pop marshmallow has dropped into a folk hot chocolate and become a warm, spicy chocolatey broth."
Have a listen and see if you agree.

Happy Saturday!!!!
