Sculpted Chanel Bags & Bipolaroids: 21st Century Worry Beads By Lindsey de Ovies

Modern sculptor Lindsey de Ovies approaches her artwork from a dual perspective. An American born artist, living in Paris, she uses her diverse cultural experiences and surroundings as a bifocal vantage point for her material.

Her work questions all things conventional, from life stages to cultural icons and stereotypes.



At present, she is working on these wonderful and hilarious 21st Century Worry Beads she calls Bipolaroids. The two-sided handmade stamped bead bracelets feature ecstasy-like pills with imprints of icons and words that we affiliate with contemporary concerns and cultural trends.










Also worth noting are her "Hi Concept" fun bronze and marble cast quilted Chanel bags:

These are only a small sampling of her wonderful sculptural work, be sure to see more of it at her website here.

From Crisp White Shirts To Boxy Shirts- S/S'11 Trends

Invest in some good shirts this Spring/Summer 2011 because at the moment its all about 'Boxy shirts' and crisp white shirts 'Buttoned up'...

The best thing about shirts they never go out of style and you can create two looks out of them, casual and classy depending on the occasion or your mood.

With 'Boxy shirts' its best to have coloured shirts like Diane Von Furstenberg's S/S 2011 collection.

As for white shirts they can be worn formal and classic or can be funked up using simple accessories such as broaches. Ladies Summer is coming soon and shirts are the easiest clothing to wear.
