I spent the afternoon yesterday with Jen Huang in her studio shooting new pieces for my portfolio (stay tuned!) and it was such a pleasure. Jen is super talented and it reminded me to cruise through her blog again which is chock full of images all in a luxurious wide layout. You should take a browse and I definitely recommend her for wedding and portrait photography. She’s awesome all around. Here are a few of my favorites…

Forget Me Knot silk scarves are the product of hand-drawn illustrations by French artist/designer Coco, in a collaboration with Yazmin Rizvi.
It’s cool to see how the design translates once it’s tied up in scarf-mode!
Available online for purchase at a hefty $257 (€ 178.00).

The current issue of Brides Magazine features two samples of Paperfinger calligraphy! They’re back-to-back in the Buzz section, beginning page 75.
Above, the Jane Austen lettering to complement the stack of books — yet another creative way to do table names. Below, my chalk calligraphy on photo booth signs. You’ll see I saved a silly shot of me with one of the signs while I was working on them…

It’s karaoke night and if there’s one song I never tire of singing (okay, so there’s more than one song that goes in that category but still), it’s The Ronnettes‘ “Be My Baby.”
Listen with me:

Mohawk General Store is based in Los Angeles but many of their carefully chosen goods are available online. Great taste and many very likable things for gals and guys.
I particularly liked (listed in order of the pics): People In Summer Safari sunglasses by Super; the Grey Perf Chuckman shoes by The Generic Man; Mini Sac in Red by Vivier; the Picnic in Black clutch by Marie Turnor; and the Rebozo Tunic in Blue by Carla Fernandez.

A cape is just the thing! Leave it Postalco, the dreamy and subtle Japanese brand that produces beautiful, simple objects such as notebooks, satchels and now, rain capes. Available in dark green or dark blue and made from 100% water resistant nylon. Now if only they didn’t cost almost $400 and weren’t so hard to find…sigh. At least the sun has reappeared in NYC.

I’ve had this photo flagged for a while and felt like today was a good day to share it — with all this grey, cool weather in NYC, it makes me want to spend an afternoon cruising bookstores with my sister. And taking breaks for treats. Not sure where this was taken, but it sure feels like The Strand.

Kottke.org put me onto the work and blog of Christoph Neimann, specifically a post of his various Google-maps-inspired set of graphics. They’re funny and observant. Check out more here and see a few of my favorites below.
