I’ve been a huge fan of Cecy Young’s photography for a few years now so when I came across this new editorial featured at Ben Trovato’s blog, you can imagine how excited I was. The model’s brightly dyed lavender hair is stunning by itself but what makes this editorial a treasure to me is how beautifully the wooded backdrop compliments it all.

“For me photography is a way of inventing stories, I find it very interesting when imagination & reality come together to create something new. I get inspired by classic cinematography, women, color, and my childhood memories,” says Young.

With a palette of deep oceanic tones, shimmery metallic fabrics and sun-kissed skin, these new shots by photographer Chris Nichols are creative and incredibly lovely. source












Each year our local university has their cherry blossom tree viewing that is put together with help by our Japanese exchange students. It’s one of the many things I look forward to each year during Spring and these beautiful photos by Kerry Dean are a lovely treat and the perfect reminder of the many years I’ve spent enjoying these magnificent trees . . . source

Eleven Objects Fall 2012 collection is beautifully crafted, something you’d expect to see from a veteran brand, so it makes it even more special that this is their first full collection.

The baroque design is just amazing, with hand-applied gold foil, luxe silk organza and stand-out metallic fabrics . . . source
