Super Psychedelic Kenzo

KENZO Resort 2013 Electric Jungle 

Yesterday I saw this super amazing delicious promo video from Kenzo Paris by Mat Maitland. And my eyes were scrolling and spinning around like the spiral of hypnosis!


According to my previous experiences in life, once I like something that much like this video, I will remember it forever like a dog! My next ideas, that I will sketch into my notebook or photographs I will take, they all will be influenced by these hyper inspiring videos and images. They will stuck and burn into my subconsciousness for a long time, if not for ever. Even now I can visualize some Lady Gaga's images, that I saw like four years ago, crystal clear and with details.

Anyway, this video is 100% my next brain damage. All the colors, surreal and psychedelic imagery is what I *heart* a lot, always liked and probably will like for ever. Here are some screenshots of this amazing 55 sec video.

I feel like a nine years old Hello Kitty fan with this video! :D

H like Heidi and Helsinki Cathedral

Last week Heidi e-mailed me if I have time to shoot her OOTD. I had only the next day off of my busy week and she booked me right away!

We met in front of  most popular sightseeing spot in the city, Helsinki Cathedral. Especially during the summer, this would be my number one place to took any visitor, who would need take tourist snaps around the city. During the summer you can sit on the warm stairway, enjoy the city view, and lick on melting tar flavored ice-cream. My favorites are mint and mango flavored though, but just for the record, here, in Finland, they sell even licorice flavored ice-cream which actually isn't that bad! Some time ago we had a really ice-cream flavor madness going on, there was chilli and blue cheese tasting ice-creams. What??

Even though I enjoy sitting in front of cathedral, when it's hot and sweaty outside, I was a bit skeptical how it would look on the photographs. Some locations might seem like a good idea but in practice, they don't work out at all. I must admit I am surprised as hell. I like the end results. It reminds me of the music video from Lana Del Rey “Born to die”. The columns just look so magical and different with all the snowy scenario.


By the way, Heidi is the star blogger on Finnish Cosmopolitan's site. See if you can find my name here! :)
If you can any Finnish you can read Cosmo's short interview with her, which is also decorated mostly with photos taken by me! Hih!

What Gods of design predicted for the spring'13 last year?

Designers are working hard to promote they're fall/winter 2013 collections while I am still on Spring 2013 shows, LOL! Kind of left behind, aren't I?
Well, I did brows new fall/winter shows but to be honest, I had difficult time to find favorites collections that would wow me. Even though it's kind of late to post Spring 2013 stuff as they came out already last year in mid-summer, I've still decided still share some menswear collections I liked a lot.
Let it be your inspiration for real spring-summer season wardrobe shopping! Spring's collections tend to be more colorful and free, less layers and dead animals covering human's beautiful body.

All collages are created using images from Style.com.
These are my fav picks of many amazing collections.

Power woman Beyoncé in London 2013

 

What could sell better concert tickets than a cool teaser video?
Beyoncé will be shaking it with her Mrs Carter Show Tour in O2 Arena London, in April and May 2013. Tickets start from £49,50 and are up to £350!

Awesome video, incredible fashion and some ideas I could copy to create my looks more unique.
Like the shoe spats of the male dancers.
Love one YouTube user's comment: "Sickest promo piece I've ever seen in my life." LOL

You know how much I love screenshooting music videos etc, so here are the stills.

LANVIN Spring Awesomeness 2013


 Lanvin's Spring 2013 campaign, photographed by Steven Meisel, America's fashion photographer, who photographed Madonna for her "Sex" book in 1992.

I like Lanvin's beautiful yet simple dresses. The male line isn't much wowing me though. Photograph's cold bluish tones are just soooo nice and kinda fit out freezy winter, snow and everything else that is surrounding us here in North Europe!
