Juste un Clou.

Juste un Clou, the latest collection from the luxury jewelry brand Cartier that includes rings and bracelets. Now a iconic piece by Cartier that debut in the 70's to symbolize the "rebellious spirit and raw energy of New York City" at the time. These pieces are so beautiful with a tough design yet they look so elegant on a wrist (I tried a gold one on this past summer and almost ran out of the store with it so my parents HAD to buy it, but they figured out my plan, boo). The collection ranges from $2,175 to $34,650 and come in various materials from simple gold to the beautiful rose gold color with diamonds. Stunning.

The Perfect Pied-à-Terre.

I have always had a strong interest in interior design and have really considered going to school for it after graduating. Naturally, I have bookmarks and bookmarks of online architecture websites and design blogs and have been subscribed to Veranda magazine since I was in high-school. So, we will see where that goes! Anyways, I found this gorgeous gorgeous sorry, did I mention GORGEOUS apartment in San Francisco of wine-makers Jean-Charles and Gina Boisset. Such a beautiful color scheme with luxurious details. The perfect dream home.

Mondo Curio.

Photomontaging is a brilliant form or art that I have taken much fascination in lately. Artist Paul Cook is no newbie when it comes to this technique, challenging his viewer to take a different perspective on that which we encounter on a daily basis. Focusing on the universe, symmetry and geometrics, Cook approaches his pieces with fractals as his basis to create these gorgeous collages. 

"A fractal is a mathematical set that has a fractal dimension that usually exceeds its topological dimension Fractals are typically self-similar patterns, where self-similar means they are “the same from near as from far.” Fractals, which are made of and from sacred geometry make up/are the universe, the planet, us, basically everything we see, breathe and live."
