Animal Lipstick Art – Painted Lips While hunting through Deviantart.com I found a very clever body paint artist, Viridis-Somnio.

J Brand Will Now Show at New York Fashion Week After years of showing up at Fashion Week as clothing that editors wear, not watch come down the runway, J Brand will join G Star, J.Crew, and a slew of other casual brands by showing a presentation this upcoming Fashion Week season. It's their first go at this. “We felt the time was right with the success of ready to wear,” CEO Jeff Rudes tells the Cut, reminding us that J Brand sells things other than jeans. Karl Templer, of Interview and other styling notoriety, will be collaborating on the show, which basically means he'll run and create outfits for the whole thing.

Victorian Halloween: Halloween in the Victorian Era Old Ghost Stories According to the History Channel, there was a movement in the late 19th Century to move away from a focus on ghosts and witchcraft during Halloween to more fun, neighborly get-togethers and parties. Generally, our modern focus on ghosts seems to be more about dressing up to score candy and treats as opposed to scaring away evil souls. Many early 20th Century postcards contain traditionally "spooky" subjects turned into cuter, less scary renditions. But during the Victorian Era, ghosts were ghosts, and October 31st was a time to be afraid. Nightfall didn't give way to the electric glow of well-lit rooms and the comforting distractions of music, television and computers. Instead, candles, gas and moonlight conspired to create eerie shadows on the walls, and the dead October leaves danced like delirious sprites into the dark landscape.
