Most interesting shoes projects

Carolin Holzhuber is an Austrian designer, who graduated in fashion in the Winter of 2011, year in which she decides to move to London, where she designs and produces her men's and women's footwear collections.
Her latest effort, "Conjoined Illusion", insists on the visual themes of reflection, mirror and optical illusion, as can be admired in the design of the shoe uppers and heels.

Fashion and landscapes

Commissioned by Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin, photographer Joseph Ford combined his aerial landscapes, taken in Morocco, Sicily, Sardinia and Mauritius with textures and colours of clothing by Missoni, Boss, Kenzo, APC, Herno, Woolrich and Swatch, selected in collaboration with stylist Almut Vogel.

In my opinion, this is one of the best ways to show that fashion is always related with the surroundings and people living in certain area.
theory: Surroundings influence fashion, people feel as adapted with their clothes as feeling at home. 
Enjoy!

Watercolour like tattoos - Level : art

       Because I'm such a fan of really artistic tattoos that can't get old over time and also inspire other people, I give you the watercolour like tattoos...
      In my opinion this is one of the many forms of art nowadays and it might turn around people misconceptions about the ones that proudly wear them and showing them whenever, wherever.
I can't believe that this kind of tattoos will ever get old because if made right, you'll turn your skin, a part of your body or maybe all of it into a live canvas presenting beautiful, beautiful contemporary art.
Tell me this isn't art?!

Here are some of my favourite watercolour tattoos













and these are made by Sasha Unisex - my favourite watercolour tattoo artist














3D paintings - Keng Lye

This amazing guy that comes from Singapore does wonders in terms of painting animals in 3D in layers of resin. He says his inspiration comes from the work of Riusuke Fukahori.
Which one is better? I leave this for you to decide. :)

If you're interested in buying his artwork, you might want to check out his facebook page:
