Well Received: Weekend Reading

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

Straight from the Monkey’s Paw, I picked up some books on hold. A fifth print of An Aperture Monograph by Diane Arbus, a first-edition paperback of McLuhan’s The Medium is the Massage (though not his best work), and a nice book of poems by Paul Verlaine.

Eva also lent me two back issues of the Vancouver-based, really-well-done art magazine, Pyramid Power.

Pleasant synchronicity in design noted within…

Ideal Plans: Bless Sample Sale, Paris

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

In a perfect world, what would be doing today, if I could? After a nice lunch, I would probably be scoping out this Bless sample sale, with pieces ranging from all their collections, N°01 – 34. Of course, I would also have to be able to afford it – I’m pretty sure those fur wigs don’t come cheap.

Sale ends today, November 15 at 14 Rue Portefoin, 75003, Paris.

I didn’t take this picture, but this is very much how this tee shirt is hanging on my wall.
