Success in Fashion / Lessons from Summer Camp
Today we bring you a special on designers! Kudos to those clothes peeps who just create wearable art. Success will find it’s way. That seems to be the key phrase for designers Rodarte, Avalon Vega, Jeremy Laing, Christophe Decarnin’s Balmain, Marchesa, Gareth Pugh, Alexander Wang [my fav site]. If gravity is our drive and ambition, than water is our success. If there is enough gravity...

See Like Me
See Like Me. How I see. Success in fashion industry. Inspiration doesn’t come that often. You’ve got to be on the look out for it. I, here at See Like Me, believe that a hunter/gatherer perspective has to be adopted for acquisition into the true mysteries of interest. If you like it, go out and do it. I’m truly inspired at how people clamber, are chosen, even fight their way to...

Magdalena Frackowiak
Hm. I guess I haven’t gotten to this babe yet. Well this Polish fox trotted right on the scene in 2006. She apparently won some model search, so we all know that as cheesy as these competitions are, they shoot most models to super stardom! She is gorgeous and her face is really distinguished. I mean, I could pick her out of a group of models, and that is saying something. She’s done...

Changes
Changes, my friend, changes. This blog is going to relaunch in a couple of days with a brand new name, and, weather permitting, a brand new look. I’m going to try to update everything, from the links to the posts. If you still visit Thanks for the Submission you will automatically be re-directed to the new, improved site. No economic recession for us! Many big things to come, my friend. A...

Elle Muliarchyk Interview Part One
Elle Muliarchyk. I just have to start off with the name. It’s always super dramatic. So, not unlike most inspirational or important people, there seems to be quite a shortage of info on you. All I gather is the usual stuff, like you’re an insane rogue who bursts into high fashion boutiques to take guerrilla style photos of you in expensive clothing. Wolf in sheep’s clothes,...

Iconography / Inspiration
Dear faithful readers, I was recently inspired by this young girl by the name of Tavi, at Style Rookie. Please read this post to understand her brilliance. In her post, she reveals that she dislikes the idea of “style icons” and “beauty icons”. She quips: “Immortalizing celebrities for being able to afford a decent stylist and lots of pretty dresses just doesn’t...

Daniel Sannwald Interview
Daniel Sannwald creates fashion optimism. His work? A bit of minimalism, a bit of sci-fi surrealist. It’s a swatch of really interesting ideas. What really turns my crank about Daniel Sannwald, is that his ideas don’t just stop at the end of a shoot. He’s as mysterious as the photos he takes (which are quite the mystery). He shot the editorial A New Dawn, A New Day for Dazed...

Troyt Coburn
This man’s work truly wows me every time I come across it. I wrote about him before, and was just as wowed then. So wowed, I wrote about him a second time. Even though he was truly at the back of my mind, he recently blew out my brains when I saw his ed for Vogue Australia entitled “Flora Plan”. I really enjoy your stuff, Troyt. Let’s get in touch. Check out Troyt’s...

Ali Stephens
I never really realized how gorgeous Ali Stephens is. I guess because I always got her confused with Ali Michael. She has the perfect bone structure and a nice body. You guys are probably tired by now of me gushing over all these hot models. I’m just trying not to put all my eggs in one basket. They’re all beautiful.

Eliza Cummings
SO apparently this chick is the bees knees when it comes to fashion punks. She dated Ash Stymest for a couple months. That didn’t last long. Check out her interview with Pony Ryder here.
If you wanna see this chick in action, check out The Ash and Eliza Show. Part 1 here & Part 2 here.

Karlie Kloss
Okay, so it’s no surprise this babe has been on the watchlist, and we’ve peeked her scene before. But she’s here to surprise us again with all that she has to offer. What a babe. Can I just say Thank God for all the tall, beautiful women out there. If it weren’t for them, where would we be. Here’s a another snippet of my obsession with Karlie.

Natasha Poly
Russian Beauty Alert! Natalia Polevshchikova (Russian: Наталья Полевщикова), generally shortened to Natasha Poly (born July 12, 1985), is a Russian model first discovered after winning a model search competition in Moscow prior to her professional career beginning in 2004. She is super funny and has a great personality. I haven’t paid much attention to her before now until I saw her...

Geoff Barrenger Interview
Geoff Barrenger is semi-Canadian. Born in Brazil, moved to Canada. He photographs people for a living. And he is amazing at it. It was our destiny to chat. It’s pretty accurate to say his work is cinematic. But I really have no idea about the man behind the… photo?
Trey Taylor: Can you please fill this out? Name: Geoffrey Mourão Barrenger Age: 26 Occupation: Adventurer / Photographer...

Vanity Teen Magazine Interview
Vanity Teen is the magazine. The free-est, freshest, beat rockin’ mag to be had. There is something to be said about magazines that pop up on the internet, for free. They usually include unforeseen content, exclusive interviews, amazing design and photography. Vanity Teen is no exception, and has some really ripe content. Well, I could talk forever about the magazine, but it wouldn’t...

Garance Doré
Leave it to a quaint french madam to show us what’s what in fashion. I’ve been on a link hunt recently and uncouthed (is that the term?) a golden turd from la France. Of course, we Canadians ne peuvent pas obtenir assez de les français. But, save that for another day. I just love the blog’s design. Garance Doré combines street style and illustration into one neat little baguette,...

Alana Zimmer Interview
Alana Zimmer is Canadian. And successful. Now, I hate to say it, but it’s not very often that I can put those two things in the same sentence. Scouted at East Side Mario’s in Kitchener, Ontario (Can you believe it?!), this fellow northern babe caught the first flight to New York and hasn’t looked back since. She’s walked for more designers than I have fingers on my hands,...

Anna Gushina
Ultimo babe alert! I’m totes gushing over Anna Gushina. I don’t know why this young lady doesn’t have a handful of fan sites about her, and her amazingly gorgeous face that I just chanced upon. I mean, wtf is up when a hot, successful model pops up one day and you don’t know who she is. This is all I can find out about her pretty much. And that she is a bombshell for IMG....

Imme Visser Interview
Imme Visser. She’s an up-and-comer from the Netherlands that will hopefully take the world by storm. There are enough sassy models already; the time has come for the polite and quirky models to shine. The ones who can bring you attitude, but never hesitate to say thank you profusely. I always believe you should thank people who’ve done you a favour. Imme Visser is that type of girl....

Coco Rocha Muse #13
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways… Your hot body and stunning features help to pitch tents in my pants. Coco, you are the reason I love to be Canadian. You continue to surprise me with your chameleon-isms. Your blog is so interesting — just another way to showcase your many talents. I think I’m in love.

Beautiful People
There is just something about beautiful people that is so attractive. Now, even though that sentence sounds simple, there is just something complex about the beauty of average people that are recruited to be models. It’s a sort of unwritten rule that if you are gorgeous you have to model. I’m not talking about that porn star look, but the real new new. The unconventional, even quirky...
