great depression chic
i follow some fashion blogs for fun and there’s been some interesting buzz about the upcoming jcrew fall collection. while i would never wear anything remotely like how the outfits are styled, something about the photos from their preview shoot appeal to my weird period sensibilities. i guess i like the charming homeless waif look?

project runway
omg, last night’s project runway was probably the cutest thing ever. i loved getting a fresh twist on the usual challenge and the fact it recognized the growing trend of well designed kids fashion, plus everything for the little girls were mainly age appropriate (thank goodness).
some of my favorite looks:
yeah, the little girl’s dress was a little uninspired design wise but she...

the lost art of inglorious basterds →
i’m not a huge fan of quentin tarantino’s work (i can’t handle blood and gore very well, even if it is stylized) but i do like when something inspires creativity on a massive level — this reminds me of the limited edition pieces done for lost before this season started. as a side note, i’d really enjoy the 2nd piece more if they hadn’t chosen to set that...

geeking out my iphone
i’ve only been an iphone owner for a few weeks but discovering these is so delicious and geeky at the same time.
AND since these are games for type/print/gd dorks, the UI should be beautifully designed. yes, i am an app snob and will refuse to download apps if the UI isn’t up to snuff.

perfectly pretty.
ne of my goals this year is to be more aware, informed, and inspired by what’s going on in the design world. it’s always been a bit of a struggle since i find myself easily overwhelmed by the amount of awesomeness to be found, especially on the internet, but i guess it’s about cutting out the crap and streamlining the chaos.
