How to spend it indeed

Monday, May 31st, 2010

Can’t believe I only just saw these, but I assisted on this shoot for How To Spend It all the way back in December and completely missed the issue when it came out. I think it might be my favourite set of images from my stylist’s assistant days, I’m in love with everything (The McQueen! The Givenchy! The silver Burberry coat! Anastasia’s face!).

Photographs by Benjamin Lennox, styling by Natalie Brewster, hair by Kenna and make up by Dorita Nissen.

Baked goods

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

As a fairly incompetent cook, there is nothing I like more than looking at the culinary efforts of others (my number one is obviously Luxirare, I just sit there scrolling with my mouth hanging open…). These drool-worthy cakes and biscuits/cookies are by i am baker and you can see way more photos and recipes at her blog. I’m also enjoying the Pretty Foods tumblr for similar foodie fun daily.

Really loving Carl Kleiner‘s still life photos, everything is so crisp and perfect. Check out his portfolio and diary for more brilliant work.

Wow, look at these amazing paintings by Will Cotton (via Siong Chin). Candyfloss clouds! Confectionery cottages! Dreamy.

Hardy boys and paper dolls

“I have been looking at book shelves and untouched childhood pursuits with a new eye. With great sadness, I realize that these objects will someday be obsolete, at least in their current incarnations. And like a curator of antiquities, I see them now as beautiful objects to be admired and preserved, if only on film.” – from In Case of Rain, a photo series by Aline Smithson.

More splendid work at her site and blog.
