this song plays at work every night and i love it. thanks to c's shazam i found it.

new obsession

today i went on a successful hunt for oversize ray bans and also found these amazing chanel nine pearl sunnies! when my boyfriend goes to pick up the sunnies he ordered in they will be mine! i love finding secret legit inexpensive designer eye wear stores in town.

originally we started fauxtograph as a photography and design blog, but slowly the majority of the posts have become fashion and style. i suppose it is just because we are inspired by me many wonderful fashion bloggers we follow.

object of our desires

heres some pages from my last project for the book class i took this term. it was based on an essay we wrote for design history about an artifact that we owned. i chose my michael kors sunglasses. we were then meant support and extend the text through a full book. my concept was to make the book look kind of like a high-end magazine using big images (used some of the sunglasses/gum pictures), small type and lots of white space. there were five sections that dealt with different aspects of the sunglasses like consumer culture and sun protection etc. i printed on thicker cardstock paper, sewed the binding and attached a hardcover. i'm really happy with how it turned out. j on the cover is perfect.

banana

last night i recruited j and k to take pictures with me for my upcoming book project on sunglasses. with inspiration from terry's recent rolling stones cover of gossip girl cast, we decided to use some props.
