Political Fictions

New York magazine has started doing this little series called the Political Fictions Project, in which they invite seven writers to submit short stories featuring contemporary political figures. They're also asking for submissions from us laymen, in case anyone is interested. Filing this away in my "wish I'd come up with this" list...

Persane by Yves Delorme

Zac Posen's New (Cheaper) Line...

They are calling this "hipster". I call it "lunch-counter chic". And I mean that in a good way. I'm liking the looks of this stuff, specifically the one pictured below. Complete slideshow at WWD.

Me gusto mucho Almodovar

Pop-culture leaves...

Loved this little "study in leaves" in the New York Times. A fun Sunday afternoon crafts project if you ask me. See the whole series here.
