its getting colder and colder and our legs can no longer stay bare. fortunately for coco rosa and her diy project, not only are we keeping warm but looking good too. from chains to swarovski crystals to floral trims, her diy embellishments were even featured in vogue korea. coco rosa lays it all out step by step so you too can experiment with your once boring tights. click for the desired tutorial: floral trim, chains and bejeweled tights.

george mitchell illustrations for goldzmine

george mitchell for goldzmine

came across a new magazine about a month ago named WUW in chapters. started looking through it and realized how absolutely fantastic it is. it consists of: illustration/ photography/ typography/ urbanfashion/ graphicdesign/ architecture/ 3D design/ digital design and overall awesomeness. an artist that particularly caught my eye was GEORGE MITCHELL from the uk. he describes himself as an “illustrator, workaholic and skateoholic” , what more could you as for. what i enjoy most about his illustrations are the soft colors and the texture best of all. theres another reason why i like them, but im not sure i can really put it into words, so i wont try (‘je ne sais quoi?’). anyhow since i was stumped for words, i got more of the low-down from george mitchell himself. quite frankly, anyone who answers questions with ‘lurking’ and references to camels and wizards is a friend of mine. plus, the drawrrrring above was made especially for GOLDZMINE !

the process?

Sometimes my work just happens. I’l be drawing away in my sketchbook, on a scrap piece of paper, a toilet wall or a bus seat and i’l think to myself ‘oh that one looks pretty good’. So i take that drawing and finalise it with collaged bits of scanned papers or whatever else i find when im out skating or lurking.

the inspiration?

I think my main inspirations are the things around me at all times that i must take in without knowing. Im always observing people when im out, maybe thats where i get ideas from? I am really inspired by outsider artists, good punk music, good hiphop and lots of other stuff like this massive dog that walks past the skatepark which looks like a camel/wizard.

I started drawing at an early age but i never took it seriously. I used to just draw in my school books and what not. I think i got into drawing from boredom mainly. I used to draw pictures of drugs and weird acid trips when i was twelve even though i’d never done drugs?? Ive still got those pictures somewhere!!

if you were a monster?

If i was a monster I’d look like this haha: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1eFdUSnaQM

DIM MAK label is “in the house” more so than ever in this month of october. steve aoki with pictures by cobra snake will be at S.A.T on october 2nd for a “sunglasses at night” event sponsored by corey shapiro’s VINTAGE FRAMES COMPANY. october 9th, with the dance tracks of the year (in my opinion), crookers and major lazer at metropolis. and of course, what would halloween be without the boys noize on the 29th and bloody beetroots on the 31st. and yours truly is apart of the dim mak street team so who knows what ill be up to. time to party harder than ever (!!!!).

a piece from the michael jackson MEMORABILIA tribute post

a piece from the michael jackson 'MEMORABILIA' tribute post

i am enthusiastically excelling in my web page design course and even though its just begun (assignment one) im enjoying putting my eye for aesthetic to the test. im keeping everything very minimalistic while sprinkling images from HEDI SLIMANE DIARY here and there. in the midst of all the coding i had to include a recipe of my choice. going along with my over achieving, i needed a recipe that was fit for it. i instantly remembered the blog LUXIRARE, that my friend had shown me a few months back. no other blog that i have come across has ever mixed fashion with culinary delicacies. described as ‘KILLER CLOTHES AND FINE CUISINE’, the blog peaks my interest with all the experimentation in both fields- which turn out excellent to say the least. i cannot suggest a certain post because they are all very intriguing,  but please do yourself a favor and read through it. maybe even get the courage to try and do a little cooking yourself!
