ESPIED: How Darling is this Star Dress!

Worn effortlessly by Leighton Meester. If you look closely the "white" are stars and the bodice edges are left unfinished adding some extra zest. Also, love the asymmetrical strap - for some additional simple detail. Tres chic!

ESPIED: Tord Boontje's Icarus & the Black Sickle Bill Bird of Paradise

The latest design by Tord Boontje (he won numerous awards for the fabulous Garland light) is Icarus- a multi-layered extruded polyester pendant lamp, which I think is reminiscent of the Black Sickle Bill Bird of Paradise as seen on this clip (Garden of Eden) from 60 Mintues. Click there to see the entire segment- pretty amazing and design inspiring! oui!

ESPIED: Random Hipsters

Think I found some of these pics on the Face Hunter's site- if you haven't yet - you should check out his blog for an always steady stream of inspiration. I just really like these pics- the style and combinations are so chic while maintaning that bit of "offness" I really enjoy. Ahhh to be a hipster. :)

ESPIED: Stylin' Casual Duos

Normally I would edit out the guys (sorry dudes), but realized how cute and lovey-dovey everyone was looking, and decided to leave them in. Plus the guys were stylin' too in their casual get-ups. Notice the stripes, plaids, jeans and rocker tees. Easy.

ESPIED: Herve Leger

I would love to have/wear one of these dresses. These three are my favorites from his resort collection. Simple, while maintaining amazing attention to detail and fit. ohhh la la! and oh so sexy! LOVE it! See Herve Leger to view the full collection & more info.

ESPIED: The Rolling Exhibition

Wow! Get ready to see some fantastic pictures! And perhaps be inspired... I am.

These photos are shot from a different viewpoint of the world, as Kevin Connolly, albeit healthy was born without legs- and has inspired a natural curiosity and many questions from those he comes across.

While on a trip abroad and tired of all the stares, Connolly took his first picture as a way to stare back. It inspired a collection of over 32,000 photos- all capturing the stares he receives. Most are taken while traveling about on his skateboard- his favorite way to get around. Please visit, The Rolling Exhibition where you can see more of his work.

SEE IT: Persepolis

Receiving critical acclaim, Persepolis, is a pleasingly simple animated poignant coming of age story about precocious and outspoken young Iranian girls that begins during the Islamic Revolution. From directors Vincent Paronnaud and Marjane Satrap, and is based on Satrap’s graphic novels. It is completely different in terms of the flashy animation we might be used to- giving it an artistic edge and telling a story not many are familiar with. Go check it out.
