Art

Visual Arts was one of the only subjects through out my highschool studies that i actually enjoyed, apart from English.

One of my favourite artist is of course the well known Pop Artist Jeff Koons. He is renowned for his public sculptures and installations, one in particular "Puppy", (shown at Rockefeller Center and permanently installed at the Guggenheim Bilbao) and his discovery of "The New".

Towards the latter part of my studies was when i actually studied this artist in depth, and my love of his quirky, unique works is forever growing stronger.
Below is a glimsp of his latest works;

A balloon dog. A chocolate heart wrapped in shiny red. A silhouette of Piglet from a “Winnie the Pooh” coloring book. These are the subjects of three glossily lacquered, stainless steel works — all previously unexhibited — by the Pop artist Jeff Koons now on view in the Cantor Roof Garden of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Paisley Print

h is for hothouse florals
forget the granny-prints! these bold blooms are flashy, splashy, and wild.

Greenhouse Effect: Models Shannan and Natalia Vodianova in full bloom backstage at Balenciaga.

Finally, ballet shoes for street wear have arrived! These are innovative shoes that have done away with heels. Feet are constantly constrained into sexy arches as the owner walks daintily on tippy toes.

And then comes the umbrella,

Not Rhianna's umbrella exatcly is it?? Strange, Strange, Strange!! But atleast the darn things can't turn isnide out everytime a gush of wind goes by.

&& what amazing make-up artists...im in love!

Much to the dismay of animal welfare groups, Fur is a major trend in 2008. But after two rather unfortunate examples of fur-wearing by Mary-Kate Olsen and Lindsay Lohan we weren't entirely sure how far it would go. Then along comes Diane Kruger to show fashionisers everywhere exactly how the trend should be done.
Arriving at Chanel's Spring 2008 couture show, Kruger wore a cropped fur jacket over her little black dress from Chanel. Another perfectly on trend piece, with its midriff evoking sheer fashion trend.
