MIZO photography

Today I was looking around on Trendland and I found this article on Mi-zo. Mi-zo is a Korean photograher duo,photographer  Zoren Gold and graphic artist Minori Murakami. They met in Los Angeles and started collaborating in 2000. They have been based in Tokyo for the past 7 years. And they now live and work in Los Angeles. They have shot for Vogue Japan, Dazed, Elle, Qvest, Bon and Tokion, and more. They are still continuing to develop their own style. They try to “push the boundary of photography.” To me their photography is really something to look at.

Glitter & Dust

Today was not how I expected it to be. Today was the first day of school back from winter break and I ended up not going. I woke up with a huge headache and I got sick. Hopefully I didn’t miss that much. I’ve been on Tumblr for a while today and I decided that I wanted to make a nice post on blogger today..
Today I was looking around Anothermag.com and I found an article on an called Diamonds are Forever. The exhibition celebrates the cult status of pop art through silkscreen media pieces that are illuminated by diamond dust. The exhibition features Andy Warholl, Russel Young, Gavin Turk, and Peter Blake.

Marc Jacob’s Daisy Eau So Fresh

Inspired by Marc Jacob’s new 2011 fragrance Daisy Eau So Fresh, Pamela Reed and Matthew Rader came up with a cool little film. In the video they incorporated an arts and crafts feel by using homemade props while filming and editing digitally. In the video their paper robotic arms clasp the three elegant perfume bottles which transform model Martyna from a lifeless mannequin into a lively and vibrant spirit in just one spray of the perfume. When I first saw it I thought it was funny but I think you guys will like it..

Earlier today I was talking to Shaurie and she’s upset because people judge her at her school and it’s not how she expected it to be. I feel so bad…
Last night I didn’t get much sleep. I think it’s because my dog wasn’t on my bed with me. And this morning I woke up with a headache.
*sigh* It sucks that so much crap is happening around Christmas time. Most people are out shopping for gifts for their loved ones and I’m here…blah. But I need to stop complaining. I should be grateful I am going to Shaurie’s in a couple of days, finally I will be able to get out of this mess!
Well I hope you all are having a nice holiday season. :)

Different day...

Today has been the hardest day of my life…
Today my dog was taken from me. Given to a different family. I’ve her for 5 years and so it was really tough. And I still want to cry about it. I just am trying to distract myself from all of it. I want to break down and start crying but I know that it’s life and sometimes things are going to happen and the best way to find happiness again is to find the positive things in life. Shaurie and a couple of my other close friends have helped me feel a little better and I’m learning to cope without Flower already. I just miss my little fluff ball and I miss hugging her and snuggling with her. I miss her licks and giving her tummy rubs. One day I’ll have a dog just like her…

Gabriella Marina Gonzalez has come out with a new collection for SS 2011, she has named it “The Cyclops Apprentice.” Her pieces are what some would call futuristic. The London designer gives a fresh look into fashion with leather features, chains, and textures that highlight the female body. She describes her collections as “clothing for emotionally dispossessed.” One of her past inspirations was the exploration of human emotional restraint. Her garments are designed for a girl who is beautiful but this is not her priority. And you can’t forget about her shoes which have enormous heels. They have been featured in several magazines and have even been worn by Lady Gaga. Gonzalez has a daring style and is sharing it with courageous woman, just like her.
