SoFA

The University of Queensland now has a Society of Fine Arts with a facebook page and twitter account to boot and I couldn't be more excited!

So if you cats are into art, art history or just being rad, like them on facebook, follow them on twitter, and, if at UQ join the society.

MIKE DAY

19 year old Australian Artist 

I love everything about this self portrait. Believe it or not Mike actually went to school with my boyfriend and oh boy, what I wouldn't give to have one of these hanging on my wall
Check out more of Mike Day's work here.

Friday

It's a toasty 24 degrees outside, the other cats in this house have left me for the beach and I've left my art history essay far too late to be able to join them. So to add to my week long procrastination here are some pictures. They are of no specific trend or season, they're just nice

Wanderlust + Co

a few days ago The Man Repeller posted about an Australian online store Wanderlust + Co. I've been meaning to write about them since then but obviously haven't....
Aside from their sparkly collections which are all bar one they have some super rad pieces
Enter link to their All In The Wrist Collection.... right on schedule.

Don't get me wrong they do have some cute kitschy things but their wristwear is commendable 

 

As is this teardrop silver ring and at $25AUD what have you got to lose?

not a lot is the answer to that otherwise rhetorical question....

The folks at Sass and Bide Sass & Bide seem to be right on trend again (sorry, I hate that phrase but a better one escapes me) They're so avant-garde yet true to the loose silhouettes, asymmetrical cuts and tribal beading and collars they're so well known for... only this season they're a little more neon than native. 

SEEKERSTATE

oh Sassy B, you have done it again

more on that soon 

Wedding Bells

I love weddings. There, I said it.

We recently had a wedding at our place. I, unfortunately, was overseas but seeing photos make me wish I wasn't not really, I wouldn't give up Paris and Oslo for the world. I don't really know the couple who were wed but from the photos I've seen it was a beautiful day.

These two photos have to be the best of them all though

 

The photographers are a couple, Breony Welsh and Ryan Alcorn. They're both 20 and two of the most talented photographers I've seen. 

Check out more of their work here and here
