Good Stock

Loved the hard-bound books that Kim offers at Good Stock… going through the custom books is very inspiring. Loved the custom book she made for the man who wrote letters through his life and always signed them, “Always, James” … the bindings look so gorgeous as well.

It seems that soon, she’ll be offering totally elegant accordion photo books. I really loved the way she’s executed these books. Be sure to also check out the gorgeously designed book templates as well. (via Jordan)

Homecoming

I love Kanye West. I saw he posted his new music video for his song, Homecoming featuring Chris Martin on his blog today and really appreciated the black and white cityscape of Chicago. The silhouettes and shadows are a nice touch and weave together Chris’ piano playing and Kanye’s performance beautifully.

Bag Lady

Paolo Roversi did a gorgeous shoot for this month’s W Magazine titled Bag Lady … the color and lighting is so gorgeous. Loved.

Christa Reniers

Spied some fabulous rings by self-taught designer Christa Reniers via Bloesem. I’ve always been a sucker for gold. All of her designs are wonderfully sculptural in sterling silver, yellow gold and white gold. Totally love. She also has a lot of unique settings for her gemstones. Buy from her online shop here.

James Welling

Attended the Biennial at the Whitney last night and saw a few artists that I absolutely loved. The first of which is James Welling. We actually had his book in the office a few months ago. His Torso series is exhibited in the Biennial but I knew him from the flower series seen above. Gorgeous color, love the graphic composition.

Lane Crawford Spring 2008

Priya — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 18:10:03 +0000

Caught the images for this in this week’s JC Report and immediately loved the stark contrasts. With stores in Hong Kong and China, Lane Crawford is Asia’s leading luxury department store offering major fashion brands like Alexander McQueen, Galliano, Lanvin, Nina Ricci, Miu Miu, and Chloé. Some of the personalities featured the current campaign include Maggie Cheug, Fu Jia, Liu Ye, Du Juan, and Tan Yuan Yuan.

New from We Dream in Colour

Jade from We Dream in Colour sent me a preview of her new enamel collection and I loved all the color. Especially in those earrings! The delicate necklaces are so perfect and will look great with the season’s floaty dresses.

See the rest on Jade’s Flickr. Watch for updates on how to buy on Jade’s web site.

Meli & Angi

Priya — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 16:10:41 +0000

When my friend Jina told me about Meli & Angi, I was absolutely floored. Jina was also kind to remind me that they baked the cookies from her wedding and I immediately remembered the deliciousness.

The precise lettering is so amazing. Check out the monogrammed cookies they can make for weddings! Total icing perfection.

Richard Chai for Target?

Priya — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 05:01:52 +0000

Racked.com spotted an unnamed collection of images hanging out in the press room on Target.com. Based on the fact that Richard Chai was just announced as the next designer, rumors abound that this might be the collection. Could it be!? If it is Richard Chai, color me excited! This might be the best yet!
