Soviet Denim

"In developing “resistance activities” containing the idea of displacement, I make frequent trips to take these photographs. Parallel to these series comes “Spanish Typographic landscapes” about places for traveler’s rest stop. How landscapes are configured around the roads, and its evolution with time as well as the disuse of certain routes."

We are in awe of these photographs by the extremely talented, Iban Ramon. He has captured the essence if simplicity with a touch of minimalistic beauty. You find yourself staring at one image for longer than you anticipated.

We see celebrities everywhere. Whether we like to admit it or not we do get inspired by what they wear and how they wear it.

We will be featuring our top celeb looks that we were inspired by in the past few weeks:

Cara Santana

These jeans are really hot and I love how worn the knees are.

Harry Styles

This fresh black wash really helps his overall look here.

Khloe Kardashian

Khloe Kardashian rocks these shredded jeans with a long white cardigan which compliments her overall outfit.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

The pairing of the cropped jeans with the sneakers are perfect. It gives a bit of a Cape Town breeze vibe to the look, that I find appealing.

We South Africans are being so spoilt with the amount of international acts coming to our shores. This week we have Bombay Bicycle Club which we covered in a previous post.

...BUT the ever-so-cool five piece band will be playing at Emmerentia in Johannesburg 6th December and Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens on 5th December (BOTH shows sold out).

Get your tickets for Jozi now because this is going to be one awesome day in the sun with a very cool local line up to support this cool folk band.
