Yellow Comptoir

Yellow is of the essence for this Spring/Summer 2012 Comptoir des Cotonniers lookbook. The ready to wear boho-chic brand offers a very up-beat & trendy collection that follows some of the season's biggest trends: colored jeans, wedge shoes and the almost mandatory color-blocking. We love it!

And the Oscar goes to...

Okay so we have not come to that point yet, but take a look at two Canadian animated shorts up for Oscars. Which film do you prefer?

NFB garnered its 71st and 72nd Oscar-nominated film with Sunday by Patrick Doyon, and Wild Life, by Amanda Forbis and Wendy Tilby. Congratulations!

Street

"Do you know where the clothes you’re wearing today actually came from? Uber-cool handmade marketplace Etsy took to the streets of New York City to ask passersby if they knew where the clothing they were wearing came from and if they even cared. The response is pretty compelling as Etsy pushes forth their cause for handmade goods coming from people you can actually see and speak to. Check out the video while you think to yourself, “do I know where my clothes came from?"

Wake up to Spring with Liya

H&M loves Liya Kebede and so do we. For this colorful and refreshing Spring lookbook, the Swedish company teamed up once again with the gracious Ethiopian model. We can't wait to get our hands on this 'Wake up to Spring' collection.

Sweet Treats

Yummy packaging designed by Campbell Hay for Lola.

Lola’s bake hand crafted cupcakes are available at their counters in Mayfair, Topshop, Harrods and Selfridges.

From the Vault

 

These are without a doubt the kind of archives we will never get tired of! Ebony Magazine recently launched a Tumblr page featuring an amazing sets of covers and other images from the publication. We can't wait to see more.
