How to Stay Sheepishly Hot Like Tom Brady

Edited by FashionIndie

While it’s coming up Spring on this balmy February 1st, I find myself thinking about our [mutual] friends in the Midwest. How cold it must be out there, hardly feeling any of the finer effects of global warming. So to you, bundlers of the cold Middle America, we are sympathetic to your dire need to wear suede boots lined with sheepskin. We dug around for some that aren’t, well, ugly. And gentlemen, know the shoes that Tom Brady swears will keep you foot-balls warm. 

Cynical Art Lover? Michael Murphy Will Make You Do A Double-Take

Edited by FashionIndie

American artist Michael Murphy is no stranger to hype.  Recognized in TIME Magazine in 2008 for his high-tension wire portrait of President Obama, Murphy doesn’t let the buzz get to his head or in the way of putting together a solid exhibit.  His new solo show LOOK, currently up in New York’s gallery nine5, makes clear just how versatile and visionary his work is. Murphy proves that getting national acclaim is not an end-goal; it just serves as a reminder to the rest of us to get our own act together…

I’m not in the market for a wedding dress, but when I ran across this stunning array of elegant offerings, I just had to feature them.

I actually don’t wear much black and white during the spring and summer months. No particular reason, other than the fact that it has to be something that catches my eye, such as those Trussari 1911 shoes. When I choose to don a little black and white something, I like to accessorize with a touch of color such as turquoise.

If not turquoise, silver earrings and an arm full of silver bangles also fit the bill.

“In the wind” Making of Video Paul & Joe Paris

“In the wind” Making of Video Paul & Joe Paris

I have been asked more times than I can count, if I can share my lighting with photographers
wishing to
understand what I did for a specific image I have done. So I decided to
have one of my shoots which features designers “Paul & Joe” Paris
for their Spring/Summer collection captured on video.

Frédérique Renaut used a Fuji F100 digital 6 mega pixel consumer digital
camera to capture the scenes and quite frankly, I am quite impressed
with the results.

None the less, it will give you an insider view in to one of my shoots where I used a mixed bag of HMI
cinema lights, Tungsten and Flash as well as scrims, flags and other
stuff to achieve my goal.

Julie Potapova from Silent Models in Paris was a pleasure to work with as was Marielle Loubet the Make-Up artist and Stylist Parissima
Saleh. In fact although a very, very long
day, it was a real pleasure working with the whole team.

I was also very pleased with the clothing on offer from “Paul & Joe”
Paris. They worked perfectly for
the theme, except for one change that didn’t work out. Was not as fluid
as I would have liked and the color I chose for the capture didn’t work
with the rest, so we decided to use another clothing change that would
be more in line with the rest of the theme.

Anyways, hope you enjoy this almost as much as I did.

"Perfectly Booted"

Edited by FashionIndie

Utility-inspired boots have taken a feminine turn for fall, with hiking and combat references leaving a major mark on high-heeled women’s styles. Here Dolce & Gabbana’s sexy ankle boots.

Nicholas Kirkwood for Erdem’s multicolored hiking inspired boots. Dress and scarf by Rebecca Taylor, sweater by Tracy Reese, fur vest by Adrienne Landau, bag by Jerome Dreyfuss, bracelet by Stephen Webster, ring by Dannijo, stirrup socks by Ports 1961.

Burberry’s lined ankle boots with antiqued leather. Blouse and belt by Nanette Lepore, fur vest by Adrienne Landau, jeans by Seven for All Mankind, bracelet by Osanna Visconti, ring by Stephen Webster, socks from J.Crew.

Christian Louboutin’s peep-toe bootie; Jean Michel Cazabat’s peep-toe combat boot; Andrew GN’s front-zip bootie; Laurence Dacade’s rabbit lined boot; Jimmy Choo’s fold-over zipper boot; Brian Atwood’s suede lace-up boot; Be&D’s shearling-lined ankle boot.

Barbara Bui’s flannel lace-up boots with fur lining. Dress and scarf by Tommy Hilfiger, bag by Jerome Dreyfuss, fox earmuffs by Lola, bracelets and ring by Stephen Webster, socks by Leg Resource.

Giuseppe Zanotti’s embellished suede boots. Sweater dress by Rebecca Taylor, jeweled vest by Bea Valdes, necklace by Stephen Webster, ring by Dannijo, socks by Leg Resource.

Utility looks are coming on strong for fall, but with ladylike twists. Designers turned to combat and hiking styles for inspiration, and set them on sexy stilettos, giving the season’s best boots the perfect balance of strength and beauty.

Beautiful photos by George Chinsee….not to mention the bevy of gorgeous booties for fall.I especially love the display in picture four.
