Children Playing. Kids Play Ball on Blu...

An artistic blend of function and fashion. The image of children playing ball on a blue background is combined with a geometric pattern in blues and white. Both the red handles and the red button closure pick up the reds in the fabric. The lining has a floral print with blue, white and yellow and the pocket is the same geometric pattern as on the front. This charming accent piece goes great with casual clothing but goes especially well with jeans.

Bar & Hurley: A Perfect Pair

Monday, July 21st, 2008

Model Bar Refaeli is joining Hurley as a face, voice and spirit of the brand. The 23-year-old Israel-born globetrotter will bring her experience, enthusiasm and charisma to initiatives and events for which she and Hurley share a passion, as well as star in the Young Contemporary campaigns.

The heart, soul, and spirit of Hurley culture is rooted in curiosity toward the world and creativity, which is reflected not only in their apparel, swimwear and accessories, but in innovative artistic endeavors, collaborations, and charitable initiatives such as Warped Tour, Walk the Walk, and Hurley Art Chest.

“Hurley does everything with a lot of genuine heart,” Bar said, “and I love that Hurley’s beach culture lifestyle incorporates fashion and makes it look and feel sexy and effortless. Every time I travel, I pack their pieces so I have the Hurley culture with me wherever I go.”

The Young Contemporary collection is created for young women to integrate Hurley into their wardrobe with her own personal style. Every dress, separate and swimsuit in the collection is interpreted through Hurley’s unique tomboy sexy lens: timeless classics and unexpected fabrics in great fitting silhouettes give the wearer confidence and sex appeal.

Shot in Brazil by David Mushegain, images from Bar’s first campaign for Young Contemporary spring 2009 apparel and swim collections will debut in October.

Flavor of Frida

Monday, July 7th, 2008

Frida Kahlo is one of the most influential female artists of the 20th Century. Even though her paintings often expressed sadness, loneliness, despair, sexual confusion, and extreme depression, the end result has been widely accepted and celebrated. Through unimaginable hardships, Frida painted incredible works of art. Her folkloric style was influenced by Mexican popular art, fantastical imagery, and magical realism that incorporated vibrant colors, exotic flowers and animals, elaborate jewelry, and most importantly, herself. I am really influenced by that of Frida’s paintings and artistic career and love to incorporate her different styles into my wardrobe. Check out these finds!

Amazingly enough, The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SF MOMA) is exhibiting Frida Kahlo’s art by commemorating the centennial of this amazing artist’s birth. The exhibit lasts now until September 28th so if you are at all interested get down there now! On display are paintings that span her career, along with a selection of her own collection of personal photographs, most of which have never been on public display!
