Alex Cameron – Candy May A while back, after having caught Australian musician Alex Cameron as an opener for Angel Olsen, I was pretty enamored of his performance, and the assuredness of its shtickyness (and yes, it is shticky). If you can appreciate Lana Del Rey for her mellifluous lists of hollowed signifiers and decoupaged images of millennial-imagined withering Americana, you might likewise find it easy to appreciate elements of Cameron’s aesthetic (though perhaps there’s some withering Austral..iana there, too).
RECENTLY CAME ACROSS this chic and dramatic home in Ostermalm, Stockholm on Bárbara's blog, Living Gazette. The 142 square foot, four bedroom apartment was listed on the real estate site Lagerlings for 17.5 million SEK (about 2 million USD). After looking closely at the space, there seemed to be something oddly familiar about the space -- the herringbone flooring, leopard rug, and especially the ginger jar blinds in the kitchen. Of course, remembered then that it was the same home we had featured here in August 2015 as the home of Christine Roth, then the Global Marketing Director at GANT. The décor has changed somewhat, but some of Roth's artwork, as well as the blinds and leopard rug, remain the same.

Bonobo is one of my top-three favorite artists of all time, so it goes without saying that I’m pretty much losing my shit at the prospect of a new album coming out early next year. As if that news wasn’t good enough, there’s a new single called “Kerala” to come along with it, and it doesn’t disappoint. In fact, it’s pretty darn amazing — at least to my ears. Hopefully you’ll find the same.
IF YOU ARE EVER searching for a way to change up a room quickly and with the most impact, try changing out the throw cushions. While we often use darker, warmer colours for the winter months, and lighter, airier ones for summertime, sometimes, in between seasons, changing up the cushion covers can change the look of a room dramatically, and with very little effort. Below, we've rounded up a few of our favourite ways to style throw cushions both at home and the office, from pairing elegant chintzes with seaside tones to black & white paired with pink velvet ...
Animal print has been a part of fashion and décor for many years: well-travelled, worldly and exotic, it was a symbol of wealth and status. Fabrics with patterns and colours imitating the coats of animals were made fashionable as early as the eighteenth century, and it is thought that animal print became popular in the United States in the late 1960’s, during the Bohemian movement.
