Brazilian telecom company Vivo recently sponsored a public arts project that involved 100 artists decorating and painting 100 public telephone booths around São Paulo. How cool would it be to stumble upon one of these helmet-like shells on the street? Even I would be inclined to pick up the phone and call you . . . maybe. Check out the rest of the designs here!
After visiting the Mediterranean twice this past year, I’ve come to embrace the ubiquity that is the evil eye symbol and have since integrated it into the jewelry repertoire. Today I’ll be showing you how to make a sliding knot bracelet with an evil eye charm, which is thought to protect against negative energy and evil powers. And whether you’re superstitious or not, this is a super simple method which can be applied to any connector or charm!
You’ll need:
- evil eye or hamsa charm
- 12 inches of chinese knotting cord
- scissors
- lighter
Earlier this spring, Louis Vuitton‘s fall show ended with models stepping off the grand Louis Vuitton Express. The luxury brand continued the locomotive adventure by inviting Todd Selby on the journey of a lifetime – traveling from Paris to Shanghai via the Trans-Siberian Railway. The trip took 12 days, with stopovers in Moscow and Beijing. His diary consisting of drawings, videos, and pictures from the impressive journey are not to be missed. Honestly, what an incredibly romantic way to travel!
Inspired by Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, Karen Walker’s fall collection combines sea militariana with Victorian romance and a bit of 60s mod. I’m crushing big time on the octopus sweater, the navy paisley printed blouses and the orangy-red boyish trousers. And holy moly, what’s the story behind the shoes?!
A melting ice cream truck by the geniuses behind The Glue Society . . . just brilliant!
