Lashings of style

Paperself is a platform for the innovative exploration of paper for contemporary product design. 

Since the time of the ancient Egyptians, paper has enabled the world to communicate. It has bought continents closer together, educated millions and for centuries has provided a canvas for creation, experimentation and the realisation of ideas. Paper is everywhere and now it is evolving into a new dimension.

Launched in 2009 by London based designer Chunwei Liao, Paperself unites artists, designers and manufacturers from East to West. Challenging conventions of product design, Paperself offers a stylish alternative in furniture, homeware and accessories for eco-conscious living.

 This is the beginning of a paper revolution.Inspired by the art of Chinese paper-cutting, Eyelashes blend an element of traditional culture with contemporary design.

Intricately cut and delicately pretty, Eyelashes are now available in 11 styles, each infused with symbolic meaning rooted in Chinese culture:

Horses: symbolic of success

Peony: for happiness and good fortune

Peach blossom: a symbol of love and romance

Peacock: auspicious and lucky days

Butterfly: free, buautiful and sensitive

Clown: bring the whole happiness

Unique and expressive, Eyelashes come in two sizes: accentuate the corners of your eyes with the smaller lashes for a subtle daytime look, or make a statement with the full lashes for a special occasion.

Dimension: 42*18mm Material: paper
Concept Designer: Ting yu Wang Amazing Paperself Eyelashes: By Mail Order Stockists: http://lunaandcurious.blogspot.com   If you would like to order the eyelashes, please telephone 0207 0334411 between 12-6pm or drop an email to info@lunaandcurious.com For the ultimate statement piece choose the super sexy large lashes £12 (one pair).

Video: Supreme x Vanessa Veasley Shoot by Terry Richardson

You’re looking at the latest not-safe-for-work photoshoot from the infamous Terry Richardson. Working with Vanessa Veasley, the shoot was created in promotion of Supreme’s latest apparel and accessory collection and was featured in their recent publication: Supreme Book, Vol. 6. Featuring a small collection of Supreme products, Veasley steals the show, showcasing her body more prominently than the gear. Typically shot against a plain white background the shoot takes Richardson’s signature style in all its scandalous glory.

Amy Winehouse x Fred Perry

British fashion label Fred Perry have collaborated with Amy Winehouse. This is her first collection and is now available for sale in all standalone Fred Perry boutiques worldwide and online. The  17-piece capsule collection for women - 15 items of clothing, a belt and a clutch bag - hit shelves on October 25.

The singer's debut collection strongly reflects her personal style. Expect a predominantly black and pink palette, checkered print and 1950s-inspired pieces.

Key pieces in the collection include Fred Perry's iconic twin-tipped M12 polo shirt, Harrington jacket and jumper dress - all reworked with a sexy twist by Winehouse. The hemlines on her pencil skirts are shorter, her Capri pants channel punk-rock attitude, and her argyle sweater is more fitting for a 1950s siren than a demure lady.

Sizes run from a women's 6 (UK) to 16 (UK). Price points range from £55 (€62.50) for a polo tee to £275 (€312.57) for a trench coat.

“Erotica is using a feather, pornography is using the whole chicken.”

I recently came across a photographer and ever since i have been hooked.

Clayton James Cubitt, a.k.a. SIEGE, is an art photographer. His work has the fun, sexual documentography style of Terry Richardson and the bold colours and compositon of William Eggleston.

Stunning!
