Saturday Night

I am a sucker for red. Clothes, shoes or accessories. If you are wearing red, you have my attention. Especially in a sea of black on a Saturday night. There is nothing unusual about the accessories, but I love the color. It just made her stand out.

Gangsta Rap!

You would think that teaching is a boring profession. Now, most days, I would admit that you are not very far away from the truth. But then, this happens. College students have the wackiest sartorial sense. And these pictures prove my point. Enough said about trying to be the crowd. I wouldn’t usually approve of thus attired Gangstas in my class, but heck, it does a day or two good to have a spot of that yellow snoring in the back seat.





The Bling is not to be missed. No wonder he wasn’t taking notes. Not with those gloves on!

Nicola Bockelmann | Porn Chic

Nicola Bockelmann's art currently deals with the phenomenon of “Porn Chic” which is omnipresent in the society. “Porn Chic evolved in the 90s when the media contributed to the sexualisation of culture. As a result the boundaries between pornography and culture became blurred and permeable and elements of pornography trickled into the mainstream."

Boho Chic

Today seems like a good day to start. So a couple of pictures off the street. I see this girl pretty often and she is always dressed well. Here, I like the fact that she has kept the bling minimal, with just a beaded bag and pretty earrings. The black sleeveless tee, worn inside the green dress teams well with the tights. Also, I like the shredded scarf. It sort of balances the different colours. She was wearing a metal coin belt for added effect. Not many people carry boho chic so well.

Harma Heikens

"The recent work produced by sculptress Harma Heikens shows life-size orphaned children, smeared with dirt and scantily clad in rags. They are busily engaged with money, food and clothing. Their cartoon-like clothing and expressive glances make them appear like a cross between porcelain Hummel figurines and personages from the Manga comic strips. Heikens uses culturally determined symbols wherein the representation of the child can be seen as a metaphor for the near future. Working within the playful idiom of popular culture and making use of techniques of temptation derived from the advertising world, she calls forth visions of a befouled world terrorised by economic and sexual exploitation."
