</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Beautiful image, no? As I get ready to move to San Francisco, I'm filing away little ideas to get a head start on dealing with the reality that I probably will not have the giant closets that Santa Barbara apartments have spoiled me with. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The styling here is lovely, and suggests that if your luggage and footwear are beautiful, and you don't have a lot of closet space, why not just display them nicely? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzf1Yu95xI/AAAAAAAAFLU/CyLCkBThtKA/s1600/3469327231_1fb9123b93_o.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzf1Yu95xI/AAAAAAAAFLU/CyLCkBThtKA/s1600/3469327231_1fb9123b93_o.jpeg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">If you style your belongings that belong in the closet as though your apartment were a store, artfully arranging pieces, mixing clothing items in with other kinds of things, and keeping it all very tidy, I think you can get away with it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlgbQN0cDI/AAAAAAAAFEo/XqNCl2_qQ2g/s1600/study+13.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlgbQN0cDI/AAAAAAAAFEo/XqNCl2_qQ2g/s1600/study+13.jpeg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">At least, I think this looks a lot more appealing than those plastic Bed, Bath, & Beyond storage numbers that are best suited for a dorm room. (I'm not going to go on a rant here about B,B,&B b/c they do have many useful things, but the overwhelming masses of plaaastic (frosted plastic! pastel plastic! hot pink plastic!) in the place makes my skin crawl.)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlgyjUgEsI/AAAAAAAAFEs/X-f3qvq3FCk/s1600/shoes2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlgyjUgEsI/AAAAAAAAFEs/X-f3qvq3FCk/s400/shoes2.jpeg" width="285" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">LOVE the shoes all lined up in this pretty glass-front cabinet above, and the image below shoes a similar idea. Why not use normal furniture as shoe/bag/jewelry storage?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Speaking of which, what ever happened to a good old-fashioned armoire for storing hanging clothes?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzf0Ok_S7I/AAAAAAAAFLQ/OwppgLoVoYM/s1600/2982486130_fda529d123_o.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzf0Ok_S7I/AAAAAAAAFLQ/OwppgLoVoYM/s1600/2982486130_fda529d123_o.jpeg" style="cursor: move;" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzebznNY4I/AAAAAAAAFLI/0E2xd-j27Pg/s1600/4765593415_e9d3db16ce_o.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzebznNY4I/AAAAAAAAFLI/0E2xd-j27Pg/s320/4765593415_e9d3db16ce_o.jpeg" style="cursor: move;" width="264" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">In addition to just shoes, bags, and jewelry, Jenna Lyons shows us that you can store clothes in plain sight with a basic garment rack...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlhPX_koGI/AAAAAAAAFE0/k1sIqOuloyE/s1600/12-17-jenna-lyons-closet.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlhPX_koGI/AAAAAAAAFE0/k1sIqOuloyE/s1600/12-17-jenna-lyons-closet.jpeg" style="cursor: move;" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Now, this is a little unfair considering the goals of this post because a) it belongs to Jenna Lyons and she might actually be an alchemist, and more importantly, b) this isn't a case of clothes stored in plain sight due to space restrictions, as in, they're-in-her-bedroom-because-her-closet-is-too-small, this IS her closet ("dressing room"). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">However, I still submit this for your consideration, because you can just pretend this is in her bedroom, and you realize it would be very simple to pull off this look. The only thing that gets too unruly here are the shoes, and luckily, I don't have a pair of heels in every color of the rainbow plus animal prints, so I probably won't have to worry about shoes overtaking my room like this.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzduuzZ4XI/AAAAAAAAFLA/yhhwPH06lzE/s1600/lotta-3.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNzduuzZ4XI/AAAAAAAAFLA/yhhwPH06lzE/s1600/lotta-3.jpeg" style="cursor: move;" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Another lovely garment rack example. Just keep it tidy and it looks fine. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlhZZNYL9I/AAAAAAAAFE4/Xca7IEdGbJY/s1600/billy+reid+florence+alabama+store+via+deep+fired+kudzu.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TNlhZZNYL9I/AAAAAAAAFE4/Xca7IEdGbJY/s1600/billy+reid+florence+alabama+store+via+deep+fired+kudzu.jpeg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Like Jenna's dressing room, this is not actually an example of someone storing their clothes in their room because their closet is too small, this is actually the Billy Reid store in Florence, Alabama. But it's still great inspiration for what styling can do! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Moral of the story, I think if you have to store clothes in your room, you should just pretend your room is a boutique and that you're trying to make the merchandise look as appealing as possible!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">This stopped me in my tracks. And made my heart pound.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TOIYiLqCPhI/AAAAAAAAFMw/cunyK0XLqF4/s1600/Screen+shot+2010-11-15+at+9.30.16+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TOIYiLqCPhI/AAAAAAAAFMw/cunyK0XLqF4/s1600/Screen+shot+2010-11-15+at+9.30.16+PM.png" /></a></div><br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The first single, "Rolling in the Deep," off Adele's new album, to be released in January. <br />
<br />
The seductively hazy, moody, leaves-you-wanting-more docu-style video was put together from studio footage from the recording sessions in Malibu, and the authentic style is perfectly suited to the soulful song, which she describes as "a dark, bluesy, gospel disco tune." I almost don't want there to be an official music video, I like this one!<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TOIYg3TgFfI/AAAAAAAAFMs/uKWD82m8sY4/s1600/Screen+shot+2010-11-15+at+9.32.17+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_pJoIk7pwFMM/TOIYg3TgFfI/AAAAAAAAFMs/uKWD82m8sY4/s1600/Screen+shot+2010-11-15+at+9.32.17+PM.png" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
For her second album, she paired up with big-time producers like Rick Rubin and Paul Epworth (Florence and the Machine, Cee-Lo, Phoenix), but don't let that fool you into thinking that maybe her personal style gets eclipsed by the visions of producers. If this single is any indication, it is actually quite the opposite-- Rubin and Epworth brilliantly capture the power of her voice and pair it with instrumentals just as dynamic and bold as her vocals.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This is not the Adele you know from her previous radio hits. Check it out.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">This is soo <i>From The Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basel E. Frankweiler</i>! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">New Yorkers, you know how the 6 train ends at Brooklyn Bridge, and they say "Last stop, Brooklyn Bridge/City Hall"? Well that stop is really only Brooklyn Bridge, and is not the original City Hall stop, and the original City Hall stop is actually this beautiful, magical place you see above, by far the most beautiful New York subway station ever made. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">But the City Hall station was closed decades ago, for reasons you can read about <a href="http://m.jalopnik.com/5684329/how-to-see-new-yorks-secret-city-hall-subway-stop">here</a>, never to be seen by passengers again... </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> UNLESS.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">If you stay on the 6 train after they say last stop at Brooklyn Bridge (which you ordinarily would never do, because if for some reason you did want to just head right back up town, you would cross the platform to the uptown side), the 6 has to pass through the City Hall station to turn around and head back uptown! So if you just stay on for a few extra minutes, you can see the lost station!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">How cool is that??? I feel like a little kid. I'm dying to do it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am totally enamored with Jacques Henri Lartigue and his work. Born in 1894, he received a camera for his seventh birthday, and from then on essentially kept a photo diary of his life. Fascinated by the things most young boys are interested in, including cars, dogs, his family and friends at play, aircraft, many of his most famous photographs were taken during his childhood.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Apparently, Wes Anderson is a big fan and has modeled many of his characters and images after Lartigue's work, including Max from Rushmore.

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">As he continued to document his surroundings and outings for his entire life, he later took many photos of fashionable Parisian life and French vacation spots, but I'll save that era for another day. <br />
<br />
Today, I'm loving the joie de vivre, humor, and idiosyncrasies captured in his childhood photographs. <br />
<br />
Can you believe his technical capability at such a young age? This was before digital made everything look good, y'all.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love this representation of the idea of "Paris versus New York"-- the reduction of a vast subject down to highly simplistic, single image representations is a great example of effective graphic design.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">PS- Did you get to the end and feel like you have a preference for one over the other? Even though I love New York, I preferred Paris in almost every single one! So either the illustrator's bias (which I can't even detect in these images) swayed me, or I'm really a little secret Francophile.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I love these RSAnimate films. I can't get enough. I think I could watch these and TED talks all day long. Speaking of changing education paradigms, maybe there could be degree programs based entirely on educating oneself through these lectures? We might as well be learning from the experts at the tops of their respective fields, right?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Anyway, have you heard of "divergent thinking"? It basically means thinking outside the box-- creative problem solving. So this test was developed to measure people's abilities in "divergent thinking," and when the test was administered to kindergartners, guess how many qualified as what the test considered "genius level"? 98%. Ninety-eight percent! And guess how many qualified as genius level after five, and then ten years of education? Watch and find out...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's one of many fascinating things explained in this eleven minute discussion of why the metrics that our education system is based on are setting our schools up for failure. </div>Eliza Colemanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00860459352973621784noreply@blogger.com0
