Project Runway Bitches!

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

Another season of Project Runway has come to an end :_( The season was super intense and there were some incredible pieces produced due to a lot of incredible talent. But Seth-Aaron won, woot! He was strong, consistent and very fashion forward the whole way through, so I am super pumped (I’m sure you can’t guess who I was rooting for). Sure Emilio had some stunning pieces, and his final line was filled with an explosion of brilliant coats and stylish outfits, but I think that the judges hit the nail on the head with their final crit of his work…it was just too commercial and did not push the envelope far enough.

Anyway, I have always take a Tim Gunn approach to my teaching, but what about if I try to handle crit more like Michael Kors? Check out this clip of the best of Micheal Kors from Gawker.tv. Kors is super funny and MAN am I glad that I dont have to show him my work! Can’t Wait for next season.

Being in the Graphic Design world how could I not offer my two cents about the amazing new Creative Suite from Adobe? Check out the movie clips to see exactly how these features work. I will drool a little over some of the highlights of the hotness and offer my opinion of what’s new and what’s better? (more…)

Puma’s red is turning green!

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

Puma is making all sorts of effort to embrace the new Go Green mentality. In an attempt to reduce waste and break the mold, they have rethought the age old idea of the shoe box. Just think about how much paper goes into one of those boxes and stuffing those to maintain their shape. Sure this may mean a disaster area for frugal Puma shoppers at DSWs across the country, but I think that it is worth it! Plus the new “box” looks like a cute little tote that you could even use to carry groceries. Oh Puma, sigh…

What will those folks at Puma come up with next?

So while stocking the Puma blog today, it came to my attention that Puma has come out with this incredibly sexy phone! The over all design of the phone and its interface are absolutely ridiculous and every element is designed flawlessly. Puma seemlessly integrates sporty, eco-friendly and fun into a beautiful packaging. Check out their micro site at http://www.pumaphone.com/. Made with Sagem, the Puma phone only weighs 115g. Rendering the beautiful graphics from its 2.8-inch QVGA TFT capacitive panel scren, the phone has a decent battery life, though the solar panel on the back totally throws this phone into a category of its own! The phone sports a 3.2-megapixel camera with LED flash and 6x digital zoom on the back and a forward-facing camera for VGA video conferencing on the front. I think that I am drooling on my keyboard.

Okay, so maybe it is not super practical, but it is very tasty!
