new obsessions
We just got this life-sized mirrored skeleton from the French-based design collective Domestic, and I'm nuts for it. Job Smeets and Nynke Tynagel of Belgian cult duo Studio Job are behind the 5-foot-5 laser-cut Perspex wall decoration. The influential pair have worked with ceramics heritage house Royal Tichelaar Makkum and fashion avant guardians Viktor & Rolf.
Also love the "I Love Me" hearts by graphic designers Ich&Kar. The pair have given their whimsical take on fashion, food, music, design and architecture--and now these laser-cut mirrors. It's a grouping of individual mirrors that can be configured in whatever pattern you desire.
Now if I can only figure out where to stick them all in our house!

The Charming Charms are the bonafide bijoux of summer--their $22-$40 price for 3, being part of the appeal. Dutch designer Tord Boontje and L.A. studio Artecnica collaborated on this brand new collection of charms, plated in 18-karat gold or sterling silver and dangling from a black cotton cord. Loop them on hoop earrings, off a metal chain or silk ribbon, or from your purse. Each group contains 3 charms, and there are 4 different groups to choose. I love all 12 together, and knot them individually on a cord so they can be seen better.

what's in store?

Who Shot Bambi? Stella McCartney
Loving the fall campaign Stella McCartney conceived with artist Ryan McGinley featuring model Sigrid Agren along with Bambi and the gang. Ryan shot the images in the woods of Worcestershire, England. “I’m a huge Bambi fan, and the film reminds me of my mum,” Stella told Sam Conti, London bureau chief of WWD, referring to the late Linda McCartney. “And we wanted to have some fun. The clothes in the campaign are looking quite fierce, and we wanted to contrast them with the innocence of Bambi."
The ads will first appear in the September issues of French, Italian and British Vogue, V and Another Magazine.
