With Maidens of Mystery - The artwork of Audrey Kawasaki Audrey Kawasaki is a Los Angeles-based painter, known for her characteristic works that are painted directly onto wood panels. Kawasaki studied fine art painting at the Pratt Institute in New York City, but left after two years without completing her degree. The emphasis that New York art standards put on conceptual art was at odds with her painting ideologies and was the reason for her leaving. The unique style that she renders to her artworks can be described as a fusion of eastern as well as western traditions such as Art Nouveau and Japanese Manga comics. Audrey’s paintings are portrayals of young, mesmerizing women who come across as innocent and tantalizing at once.

POC Q A Session 8 Description Submit Questions Here: 2m24s "Forgive the morbid question.

How Jaden Smith Wore the Denim Romper for Memorial Day Weekend “I want to be in a constant Woody Allen film,” said Sienna Miller yesterday afternoon at the NoMad Hotel in the NoMad district. The British actress, who was dressed in a striped cap-sleeve Burberry top and jeans, is a recent transplant to New York City. “I think I’m in a good mood [here],” she said. “I find the energy totally uplifting, and therefore, I’m a little bit more creative.” That’s certainly been true of her style—some of her recent looks in Manhattan have featured oversize check Chanel jackets paired with leather shorts and booties, Prada’s Chinese-inspired pajama set with feather trim, and last night, a lace minidress with a military topper from Burberry.

Tea-time – Tea Steeper Design by Pengtao Yu Timely Steeping I am in love with the Tea-time tea steeper for its intuitive design and simplistic interaction between tea leaves, water and steeping time! A flipping action, akin to starting the timer, sets the tea making process into action. Loose tealeaves and hot water do their steeping business and the ready tea slowly trickles down to the bottom beaker. The timer/filter hold back the leaves and your cuppa is ready to sip! A point to note is that designer Pengtao Yu has used a spring loaded timer to keep the product low-tech and traditional.
