GoodHood Store from the UK did a really nice thing on their AW preview. Instead of taking photos of the upcoming stuff, they worked with an illustrator. A small but very nice little twist. I really like the way they play with the stereotype target groups in a really funny and beautiful way. Can you find yourself on the screens? I definitely did find myself on one or another! ;-)

More after the jump.
For a long long time now I’ve been a huge fan of the works of “Phunk Studio” an art and design collective from Singapore. They work with brands like Nike, Nokia, MTV, Daimler Chrysler, Comme des Garcon, Levis, Tiger Beer and Salem, Habitat,….. and they are one of the most well known visual artists in asia. Their work is so stunning, inspiring and colorful. Whenever I see such nice arts and installations, I ask myself, why isn’t that possible to have nice artist installations and art in public spaces in Germany? You should really visit their website and add them on Facebook. I can’t find enough words for their fantastic work.

The new Monocle issue arrived just yesterday and hell yeah, it is well worth the money. As a matter of fact this is one of the only few print magazines that I still find worth reading. For those who are new to this magazine: It features a global perspective on politics, business, culture and design. Besides the perspective of the content in general, I really like the photos and illustrations. The Monocle website is worth checking out as well.

I love illustrations, especially fashion illustrations. When it comes to that, I like Danny Roberts from “Igor+Andre” ones the most! We all know that Zara was stealing a pictures from “Betty“, did an illustration and released a T-Shirt with her. But there is a company that does it right! “Forever21” is collaborating with “Danny Roberts“. They picked a few fashion-bloggers and did a collection. Nice move! That’s the way I like! I’m kind of jeslous in both ways. ;) I would love to do an illustration collection and be on a shirt as well. ;) Man kann nicht immer beides haben und manchmal auch gar nichts von beidem. ;)
I really have a heart for books and magazines. It’s so nice to hold them in your hands and just look at the nice pictures. Yeah, I don’t need to read ;) Of course you will find everything online, but I just love to hold them. It’s a love between the book or the magazine and me ;) Before we moved to Stockholm we sold everything on Ebay and threw away all magazines. The first book I will buy is this one: My Wonderful World of Fashion.

Some of my winter sweethearts. Like I told you before, I´m always coming out with shoes at H&M.
My new shoes. Whenever I´m going into a H&M I´m coming out with new shoes.
Here I introduce to you my new darlings.
SAY HELLO!
My boyfriend hates when I´m wearing them ;)
Note: I love Freehand more then Illustrator, but, it´s getting better and better with CS4.
