Artistic Trash
Who doesn't love taking some battered old Cadillacs and transforming them into a desert installation? This is the real meaning of reuse recycle; taking something completely useless and basically destroyed and making it look gorgeous and relevant.

Time To Check Out AA
That's american archive, not American Apparel. An online vintage store on ebay, they are spot-on with their collection full of native prints, draped sheers, distressed scraps of denim and lots of leg on show. The style is all-American basics with a touch of European glamour and makes me feel sharp pangs of longing, particularly for the combination of black bodysuit under a sheer pink shirt, pictured on the far right.

He's a Face Hunter
His name is Ivan Rodic, and he hunts faces. In his own words, he 'travels the globe in search of the most inventive, colourful, freaky, imaginative, gifted, graceful, exquisite, fascinating, unpredictable, gorgeous, refined, delicate, divine, facehuntable, fantabulous, bewitching, edgy, ravishing, chic, winning, alluring, wild, glamorous, voluptuous, radiant, classy and - if possible - good-looking people.' Visit the blog (linked in the title), pour over the book, you will be inspired and filled with an insatiable longing to go out and shop shop shop...
Speedy Reader
An entire issue of Industrie magazine in less than a minute and a half; I think it shows how beautiful a magazine can be when all you see is pictures and perfectly layed-out fonts. The aesthetics of something created purely to showcase beautiful and innovative creations. The amount of time and effort that gets put into the publication of a single issue of a fashion magazine on the scale of Industrie or Vogue is mind boggling yet this video shows how fleeting and disposable the end product actually is.

Le Smoking
I know that smoking is bad for you, and for everyone around you. But how is it that smoking can make someone look so sexy? Images of people smoking particularly appeal to me. I don't know if its because these women are supermodels, or because they were photographed by very talented photographers but these images are so effortlessly striking and stunning. For more images like these, go to lesmokingimage.blogspot.com, linked in the title. You'll be enraptured for some time.
