Last night, I was browing through random books at Exclusive Books. Yes, from now on I will only go to the bookstore itself, because the new website is shockingly bad. Eyesore. Also, slightly offended because it *corrected* my “Kevyn Aucoin” search, by suggesting “Kevin Aucoin” with an “i”. Sorry, my lovelies – it is Kevyn with an “y”. Thought I would click anyway to see what their suggestion might reveal: “Cannot be found.” Hot.
So while I was at the bookstore, I noticed a book filled with work by various illustrators. I have no idea why I was drawn to the book, because the cover is ugly and not appealing at all – cannot even remember the title of the book. Oops. Might have to go back to make a mental note. Thanks to my friend who had his iPhone ready to snap away, to remember Brosmind. These illustrations are amazing, bright and it makes you LOOK.

These extra special limited edition Diet Coke cans were designed by Tom Gauld to raise awareness (or awehness) of The Heart Truth – a women’s heart health program.
Sadly they will only be release in the US, but here’s an interesting little tidbit for you: Tom’s agency is called Heart.

“Covers” is a project by John Paul Thurlow. “This is an attempt to remake cover art for every great magazine I own (+ a few record covers soon). Covers is an hommage to the creative men and women who produce such disposable perfection.”

Growing up I wanted to be a fashion designer. Even today I am still very fascinated by it – from the tiny, little details to the glam finale when baby girl hits the runway.
My biggest concern was that I would not be able to draw all day long and be able to draw the women who usually featured on the sewing pattern packaging from the 80s and early 90s. Mamas had a box in the closet with all the fabric and it was time well spent going through all the different patterns and styles in the box.
Believe it or not, there are fashion designers who cannot draw (or sew). Not to worry, Penter Yip created Fashionary, a notebook with barely visible templates on each page allowing you to sketch – trouble free.












Eerlier this month, I posted lists by Recovering Lazyholic. Today, one of my dearests lil frands directed me to his flickr. Time well spent.
