A Hidden Presence in Threads of Hermès

Wow...the Japanese, always & constantly leaves me speechless. The concept is sooo simple, so minimal yet so incredible & inspiring...I'm a little lost at words. This concept brings a simple sheet of Hermès silk to life, metaphorically givin it a breathe of life...bringin the notion of an invisible presence to threads of silk...
Now This is what I call a Window Display!! Without all that jazz & crazy over-load of furniture wantin to escape from the frames.

Japanese designer Tokujin Yoshioka's new installation is set up within Maison Hermès in Japan. Based off his 2004 window display, this new set up features a restructured design with an appearance by a famed Japanese actress.

The display can be seen until January 19th, 2010.

Tokujin Yoshioka's Concept:

“On designing a window-display of Maison Hermès, I intended to express people’s daily ‘movements’ with a suspicion of humor. There are moments when I perceive a hidden presence of a person in the movements born naturally in daily life. I created a design where one can perceive someone behind the scarves as if life were being breathed into them. The window is designed with an image of woman projected on to a monitor. The scarf softly sways in the air in response to the woman’s blow.” – TY

'I am searching the other's body, as if I wanted to see what was inside it, as if the mechanical cause of my desire were in the adverse body, - I am like those children who take a clock apart in order to find out what time is...'
-R. Barthes

Sooo Infatuated...

I'm sooo infatuated with Trigga-Trey Songz at the moment!! Omg, I'm watchin the Soul Train Awards 09 re-run, and I find myself gettin drawn to him more, and more each time I watch him sing! His smile, his vocals, his style...*drooolz* literally!! His performance with Toni Braxton that night, killed the opening! They were awesome!! And that song has now become my current obsession haha.

Toni Braxton ft. Trey Songz- Yesterday

I present to you the Maloko's! (<--click to see the full set of colors)
They come in 5 tricolor ways, so find & match the Soccer/Football teams you're cheerin for! Take your pick & match up with your man's Jerseys or those Hott 'Steel United Calvin Klein' breifs for the World Cup!! I'm not really a big fan of couples wearing matchin stuff (which I personally feel is frickin Lame to the Xtreme) But in this case...I'd say, watchin the game has never been oh-soo sexxxi!! & what a great excuse to buy another pair of Soles!!

Currently, diggin the followin Beatzz:

New Beat from Kellz, leaked on the net; 'Fallin from the Sky'. He wrote it originally for Chris Brown but he didn't take it so Kellz himself recorded, Which IMO I am soo glad cuz c'mon...Kellz voice Kills Chris's anyday!! He sings it so much more Soulful!!
I'm addicted to it!!

JLS (British Boy Band from X-Factor)- 'Tightrope' from their Debut Album
The lyrics are pretty damn cute, havn't heard of cute little romantic songs from boybands for awhile, I think this is what made them rise to fame so damn fast! The gloomy, lonesome UK needs these Boyz to bring the Sweetness back! And...of course, they're not bad to look at haha. ;)

Two Men, One Sole...

Pharrell Williams aka. One Fine pièce d'art who knows good music, fashion, style...pretty much every essential thing in life, He knows oh so well! Finally, Mr. Williams gets to share the love of Louboutins with Me & All Louboutin Lovers with the new S/S 2010 Collection, the
'Studded Louis Sneakers'


S/S 2010 Collection, the 'Studded Louis Sneakers'


In my opinion, the Kicks are aiight, not Crrazy, But compared to P's own BBC-Ice Creams, I gotta say Ice Cream's got nothin on these!
These Studs are runnin at about $1200/£550-£600.
They also come in Men's Flats...I think I'd stick wit the Kicks...But that's just me, cuz these look like my Jazz dance shoes circa 1996.
(Vintage Punk anyone!?)




Kissmas Kisses!!

I recently started interning at Bandana Enterprises Ltd. a Fashion High Street Supplier, which I'm learning loads about! From production to development, incorporating ideas on prints, its hecticly busy, but quite fun. Non-stop action! But the best part has to be that everyone there is really nice! What more could you ask for right!? And I also ocassionally help out next door with Luxury Scarves company Lily and Lionel, they have really, really nice scarves that I love! Super cool prints on fine cashmere! Check em out!! Great gift ideas, and you should check out their new Xmas Theme Page! Cuz I made the awesome Christmas Baubles from their scarf prints on the website!! haha...but I'm super glad that they liked it & that they turned out pretty good....

Ccchheck Me outz!! <--Click Click





This 'Bright Blue & Purple Leopard Print' scarf is my Fav!! It's a 100% Suuuper soft, fine cashmere. Awesome colors & print to have wrapped around that 'cou de crayon' on top of a Gray Leather jacket for the breezy Winter Days! Grab a peice for £125 before I buy them all at Lily and Lionel! They have really nice gift wrappin too, I would know ;) haha.





 Mmm this is a hott peice too! For the Dudes, bestowed as the 'Italian Job' scarf. If my Guy was sportin this, I'd be droolin all over him! and of course I'd steal it occasionally!
Also featured in Vogue people, its gotta be an 'item' cuz we all know that Vogue knows the deal!
At £110, get it get it get it!! @ Lily and Lionel.com


pCe, I'm outttz~

Hittin Lines of Bookzz

The Next Book I'm thinkin of Readin is 'The 50th Law' by 50 Cent, Co-author Robert Greene.



I'd like to look into 50's thoughts on Business & Sucess, he's obviously doin somthin right haha, and Robert Greene's previous book '48 Laws of Power' proves that their combined thought might lead to somthing else...or maybe it's just cuz it's 50, maybe that's why I wanna read it haha.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, An awesome Christmas treat from the Wayans Bros!! I love Marlon Wayans!! I love them!! They're Hilarious & Verrry Entertaining!




Sooo sad that I wasn't in L.A!! They were doin a book signing at Borders! :(

These Soles are makin me itchh of Desire!!


In the midst of my procrastination...I tripped upon the followin Soles that are distracting me from continuing to write my papers...due in less than 1 week.....awesome!

The Beautiful Alexander McQueens Heart Peep-toe pumps. I love simple Black pumps with bright blocks of colors to accentuate the dark background. It'll look great with a pair of High-waisted, Wide Leg Trousers long enough, just to sweep off the ground, giving street viewers a Peak at the Yellow soles discreetly while makin a flashy statement!
The Yellow soles are sooo hot!

You can find this pair of hott mess at Net-a-Porter for £375

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As for the next pair, from my All time Fav Shoe Designer; Monsieur Christian Louboutin




Winter's here, but for those of you who are in the Warmer hemispheres of the Fashion World, you can be sporting these Canvas Ice Creams! (Not that the ones in the Cold can't) Because these are, what I consider to be Louboutin Hot, Wearable, Wedges that can be worn without havin to juggle your way through the pebbled streets like the rest of the Mt. Everest Sky High Shoes at the moment. You can actually do more than just Stand & look beautiful in this pair of Breathable Canvas Knee High Louboutins! I'm diggin these fo sho!!
Find these Red Soles at Net-a-Porter for £385 (For Louboutin boots, I'd say the price is aiight!)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another outta the nation sexxi pair of McQueen's;
I present to you the Peep-toe Boots!!





These Soft Leather, Slouchy Mid-Calf Boots, I must say are the hottest Soles so far that I've fallen upon.
The hottness of a Peep-toe: Check!
Winter trend statement: Check!!
Ability to make legs appear longer than the lines on Boxing Day Sales: Check check!!

These little mamas, are so hot...the snow might melt at every step of the Sole! Haha (ya, that sounded like a Lame line some guy would try to drop...) But the Mid-calf length of the Boot will elongate your legs to make them appear long & slim, who cares if you're already 6'2, it never hurts to add another mile!
Check these little devils out at Browns (if you're in London) or Online at Browns for £675. Yummmy.



Now...back to the grueling papers I shoulda been writin instead of droolin over these Hot Soles....but a girl can't help but take a peak! If only essays were as easy as writin this entry....

I'm outtt!
