Black and White Editorial & Video – Vogue UK


The video will show under this

I really like this Black/White editorial and video made for Vogue UK shot by Nick Knight (co-directed by Ruth Hogben.)- The fashion story features the beautiful model Anja Rubik in a delicious series of black and white robes and outfits, using some of the best brands and designer names in the industry such as Martin Margiela, Dries Van Noten, Dior, Vivienne Westwood and Viktor & Rolf.

A 6,000 km. Bacteria Wall


Magnun Larsson, an architecture student from London has proposed an idea to transform the Sahara Desert by creating a 6,000 km wall of sandstone. His proposal was awarded the top prize at the Holcim Foundation’s Awards for Sustainable Construction. The purpose wall would not only create an oasis by providing to create an oasis by providing shelter, water, and vegetation within the harsh Sahara Desert, but it would also stop the Sahara Desert from expanding.

Amazingly, the limestone needed for the 6,000 km wall would be created entirely by utilizing bacillus pasteurii, which is a bacteria that when combined with regular sand turns into hard limestone.

In a time where being “sustainable” is the new fad, it’s nice to see some truly unique and amazing ideas.

Haha, ” The Beer Goggles effect ” ! Man I love advertising ! How creative some Agency are ! This Ad is for Ibrew-Coopers Beer: “Unlike regular-strength beers, Coopers Premium Light is a low 2.9% alcohol. The benefit of this low alcohol beer is that even after you’ve had a few, the effects are minimal. In fact, the “beer goggles” effect is only about 2.9% “

Kastyn Reid for Vanity Fair Italy


kastyn-reid_vanity-fair-italy_1

This 21 year old rising star Canadian model Kastyn Reid is featured in this sexy editorial for Vanity Fair Italy. This Calgary native stands tall at 5? 9? and her 34, 24, 34 figure with dirty blonde hair and tantalizing green eyes makes her a strong candidate to be every man’s dream girl. Although not much is known about the leggy Canadian, we just sure hope to see her in more editorials such as this one.
