So this should be my new weekley (...?) post on the internet knick-knackery that is catching my eye lately. I am a bit of a horder, so I'm hoping this new method of collecting will prevent me from purchasing any more tiny bronze animal figurines or vintage pencil skirts...but I doubt it.

Shall we begin?

Good Books: Metamorphosis

this gonzo-esque, acid trip down psychedelia lane is the byproduct of a collaboration with Buck--a design-driven production company with offices in New York and Los Angeles--and Good Books, an online bookseller that passes all of it's profit on to Oxfam. Gotta appreciate great great campaigns for good causes, no?

Enjoy, and then go read a book...or buy one.

Also featuring the audio stylings of Antfood.

The Works of Nicola Odemann

I originally chanced upon Miss Odemann's work on over on Miss Moss and felt my heart instantly yearning for great open spaces and limitless horizons. Born in 1992, it seems as though Nicola has seen most of the world already, and her work features some of the most heart-stopping landscapes I've ever seen. Her shots seem candid and casual, which I suppose is part of their appeal for me. I love that they seem so unstructured, much like the wilderness they capture.

I dare you to go to her portfolio and not get lost.
