Shoes for Fall

The weather is starting to take a turn. It was hot and sunny on Saturday and then we had a crazy wind/rain storm over night, then Sunday was all over the place. It made for a very wild weekend full of sweaters, shorts, sunglasses and slickers ; )

This made Fall all too real, so of course I thought about new Fall shoes.....

Bottle Cap Portrait

Artist Mary Ellen Croteau took probably a billion bottle caps and made a bigger than life size portrait of herself. By slipping smaller caps into larger ones she was able to create a new shade of color, what a beautiful discovery.

Stèphane Laniray Photography

The Tokyo Architecture series came about when fashion photographer Stèphan Laniray decided to walk around the city of Tokyo rather than being bored in his hotel room waiting for the next runway show. These gorgeous photos are like looking at the large urban city with kaleidoscope eyes.
