one of my new favorite magazines is small magazine. Olivia and Christine are the amazing editors behind the magazine along with an amazing selection of contributing artists, photographers and designers....not to mention their beautiful little models! With each issue bursting with creativity and originality..its hard not to read it more than once. You can keep up with even more ideas and inspirations by the editors on their blog at smaller.

chanel show in paris

trailing paper veins of monochromatic roses, daisies, petals and leaves bloom at the Chanel 2009 Spring-Summer Haute Couture show. based on mlle Chanels idea that "women think about all colors, except the absence of color. for me black has everything. So does white. they are absolute beauty. they are the perfect match. dress a woman in white or in black at a ball and all eyes will be upon her"

crow

the contrast of black and white illustration is always so striking....adding the element of motion makes it even more incredible.
