Vintage women…but not like old ladies, well they are old now, most likely dead… ok nevermind, just enjoy some retro/vintage and even possibly stylish pics for either inspiration or just pure enjoyment.
All at Retrogasm.

Cute, stylish, funny and just plain cool, make sure to checkout Gluko & Lennon on Vimeo.
A great example of using characters to their full potential.

Maybe a bit too dark for the beginning of the week, but still a great track with a great remix.
For those of you who didn’t know Dead Man’s Bones is made up of actor Ryan Gosling and friend Zach Shields.

Combining photography and sleek design, the Porsche Book will be a great addition to any coffee table. The book features 24 chapters of some of my favorite eras of Porsche design in 200 photographs of full color. The book is edited by Frank Orel and is the 4th Porsche book to his name with a 5th coming out this Fall. Now we just need one for Lamborghini.

I’m sure a chunk of you have an iPhone, and although there are a load of cases out there to choose from, there are very few that are worth your time.
I stumbled across Grove bamboo cases awhile back and got speaking with some of their staff and hopefully I’ll have a case on their soon, but until then make sure to checkout all the great artists they have lined up or you can even order your own custom case or a blank.

Some of my favs include:

Stumbled across this photographer the other day and thought you might enjoy. She is mainly a fashion photographer so figured that went right along with laFraise. Plus I don’t mind giving a fellow Canadian some extra press :)
Her screen name is Magdalena M and she hails from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
You can view a chunk of her work over at Behance.

I’ve included a few of my favs of her work:

Just a quick reminder guys, today is the last day for your Gaia submissions, so get them in as soon as you can!
We’ve already seen some nice submissions but remember the theme is “The Beauty of Mother Nature”.

Good luck!

Now I’m not a big Air Jordans fan to be honest, I’ve never even worn a pair, too “basketball” for me. I do however love the Blazer Mid series of Nike shoes in all formats/colorways. I think I own about 7 pairs of them.
With that said though I’m always on the look out for slick sneakers design, and these fell across my lap a few days back.

Again, not my type of shoe, but I’m really enjoying the blue colorway and it’s a good example of basketball shoes that don’t suck and make you look like a douche. Full info here

As for the Blazers I spoke about earlier, here are a few of my select favs (which include the mid and high series):

As you can see my taste in shoes reflects my style of illustration.
