Sporadic Rant: Charlie vs. Sarah

Many people say, "I love when girls have boys' names". FYI: it's a large load-o-crap. If it weren't such a steaming pile we wouldn't have so many Rebeccas, Samanthas + Michelles in the world? Not that I have anything against any of those names. I'm sooo over the many different forms in which trends are blindly followed - even if limited to verbal expression only.

Artistic Brilliance

Check out these really interesting photographs of the world's most famous landmarks. Apparently, there's a Switzerland-based artist by the name of Corinne Vionnet who scoured the internet for hundreds of amateur photos - yes; tourist snapshots - of these monuments then superimposed them into final pieces of art. The results are brilliant.


World Trade Center [New York]

If you look closely, you can see different shades + shadows that represent the vague silhouettes that exist in the original photographs. For me, the vague silhouettes serve as a reflection of the footprints we leave behind - both the living + deceased. It's a truly beautiful thing.

Acropolis of Athens [Greece]

Chichen Itza [Mexico]

Coliseum [Rome, Italy]

Eiffel Tower [Paris, France]

Louvre Pyramid [Paris, France]

Himeji Castle [Japan]

 
Mount Fuji [Japan]
 
Stonehenge [England]

Saint Basil's Cathedral [Moscow]

 Taj Mahal [India]

Tiananmen Square [Beijing, China]

Alien Dolls

"Alien Dolls" shot by Paco Peregrín for Avenue Illustrated
 
This editorial shot by Spanish photographer Paco Pere­grín for Avenue Illustrated Magazine takes futuristic fashion to the next level. In my experience, polished futuristic aesthetics are rare. The glam team [styling by Kattaca | hair + m/u by Lewis Amarante] did a phenomenal job.
