100 Years of Style

My friend Jess showed me this awesome video depicting 100 years of East London style from 1911-2011, just in time for fashion week! How cool!

Seems like it's about time for suits to come back, eh? Sadly I won't be home for NYFW because I'm moving back up to Boston, but Amanda and I will still be gracing you with our lovely blog presence no matter where we go. No worries peeps!

Eye What You Eat

As someone who loves pretty pictures, cooking and FOOD of all kinds, I'm totally into Eye What You Eat. No Reservations cameraman Erik Shirai is the man behind the "hardcore food porn" (Anthony Bourdain's words, not mine haha). The concept is food basically prepping and cooking itself, and Shirai has even given us several yummy options: potage, soba and capri. Check out the Potage video below (full screen if you can!), and click through to Eye What You Eat for the rest:

Whooooooooooo's hungry? (ME!)

Have a fantastic week, and for the NYCers - please try not to drown!

Very Cherry

Seriously, who on earth knew that gelatin could be so beautiful? Usually when I think of jello, I picture the blancmange rabbit that became a dreaded family tradition (not even my aunt, the creator of such a horrendous creature, liked them). But, when dropped onto a solid surface and taped in high speed video... this jello actually looks damn good.

I'm pretty impressed. We actually played with a similar camera in my biomechanics class the other day, but in not nearly as cool a way. Ps - the jello is cherry flavoured.
