Poketo Recycled Suit Totes

These awesome totes (not a big fan of totes in general but these made my head explode) are made of recycled vintage suits, and are the product of a collaboration between Poketo and Eco Party Mearry (a non-profit design shop). I'd really love one of these (though I'd probably end up not using it as much as my rucksack, but still, these look great).

They go for $250 a pop, and can be found here. (They also have some -cheaper-recycled street banner bags too)

Viva Daria!

V Magazine - Nov 09W Mag - April 10Canadian of Polish descent, born in 1983. Daria Werbowy is just everywhere and I could be posting more awesome photos of her until the internets drop, but I'll stick to these two. 

I don't want to fall into clichés, but I sense she's the next top model to be seen all over á la Heidi-Gisele-Kate Moss style. Already has her own cosmetic collection with Lancôme (of which Daria is one of the main faces).

Viva Daria!

William Frederking - Dance, Photography

These past few days I've been having flashbacks from the time I was in Chicago; so today, I ended up googling my photography professor's name and bumped on his website.

I remember he used to talk in a very passionate manner about taking pictures of dancers and after seeing more of his work on his website I understand why.

William Frederking is the Associate Dean of the School of Fine and Performing Arts and an associate professor in Photography at Columbia Colege Chicago.

Folding Bag

I obviously have a thing about backpacks, utility bags, cases and stuff of that sort. 

I love the design of this Leeuw & Vormgeving bag. However, I do have my doubts about its usability/comfortability, but I really wouldn't mind having one... It's made from an aluminium polypropylene composite and it's shape imitates the structure of armadillos.

It's amazing how despite the fact that we are accustomed to seeing such imagery, through films and TV, we still stand in absolute awe when it's the real thing! Literally breathtaking (and show-stopping).
