Sewing Sounds

July 21, 2011

I just posted about this in Mother Crafter, but I also wanted to share it here.

I stumbled upon this on the Sounds.Butter website.

As stated in the description: “The intention for this project was to make sound visible. As there is already a variety of ways in which sounds can be seen (equalizers, sub-titles, etc.), my aim was to produce a device where that representation of sound would be a physical one. I therefore used the sewing machine as the basis for the project as I feel it is synonymous with industry, and making physical products.”

How amazing would it be to create garments with the sounds of your favorite tunes and poems? Or the recorded message of a love one?

This is not a real product yet, but I’d totally want one if it was! Way too cool, don’t you think?

Swimwear for your body type

July 10, 2011

The secret to looking good in a bathing suit is more on wearing the right one than losing all those extra pounds (though of course it helps to be fit). You can take advantage of your strengths and hide what you do not like about your body.

Small Bust: If Mother Nature did not endow you with voluptuous breasts, you can create the illusion of larger chest by choosing tops with ruffles or a demi-cup in vibrant colors (like red or orange). Wide horizontal stripes and triangle tops are another good option to achieve the same result.

Big Bust: If, however, you have large breasts and want to diminish them a bit, choose tops with good support, either wired (your best friend) or with a wide band under the bust. One piece swimwear with a V neck also enlongates your torso and the size of the “girls.”Big Butt: If you want to  simulate a smaller derriere, opt for boy shorts or hot pants. A one piece with a pronounced cleavage is ideal too, since it will draw the attention to the top and balance your figure. If you choose a mismatch bikini, do not wear larger prints or brighter colors on the bottom.

Belly: If what you have is a bit of a belly or you just gave birth (like me), I recommend one pieces or tankinis. An empire cut o a belted swimwear will hide your love handles. You can also opt for color block and  rouches on the middle.

My last advice for you: Do not stress too much about your body and instead, enjoy the summer!

Christian Louboutin New Campaign: Art + Fashion

June 28, 2011

The new Christian Louboutin Autumn-Winter 2011-2012 campaign combines art and fashion in a very creative way. The great designer, along with photographer Petter Lipman, has accurately recreated the wonderful works of the Old Masters.

The Artist's Mother - Mcneill Whistler (1871)

Magdalena and Candle – De la Tour (1640)
Portrait of a Negress [sic]. – Benoist (1800)
Portrait of a Young Girl – Corot
La Marquesa de Antin – Nattier (1764)

This campaign demonstrates that contemporary and avant-garde designers are inspired not only by the history of fashion but also by the history of art as well. And, furthermore, that art and fashion often go hand by hand (remember Alexander McQueen’s dress at the VMA’s 2010?)

What do you think about this campaign?
