this blog is a visual notebook of inspirations for a group of bandit bloggers. we post things we see and like. our lives don’t revolve around singular topics and neither does our blog. sorry! nothing is in-or-out of context here. enjoy xx
johan renck has done some very witty and interesting “shorts” for brands like h&m. for the first second, i didn’t think this one was quite up to par, but was going to include here because there seems to be a lingerie theme on TS of late. on the other hand, this vid for agent provocateur is actually perfect for them… energetic, funny, and just the right amount of crass and ass. featuring paz de la huerta of course. by kl
lately no matter where i go, and mind you i don’t go to too many places, i hear the same tracks from the attics of 90’s britpop. this song was in my head from last night’s shindig, and i have to admit i dug it up just for giggles. but let me tell you, guilt does set in, so now, the real point of this… when i was young, old folks would go to lame places and listened to their lame childhood tunes to feel “young and nostalgic”. herds of amateur violinists would work day and night to replay those very tunes in every freakin’ elevator. well, we barfed at that nostalgia. where i was growing up there was no turning back. now what is it with our complacent lazy bum generation that has made regurgitating herbivores the trend to fend? do we not have anything new to give? well i suppose not, cause when we try, we come up with some self-help crap like: born this way… maybe it’s best we stick to blur for now and just carry on with the aging process… by dd
mini vixens beware. dioni tabbers (supreme model management) shot in london on location at cromwell muse with stylist sasa thomann. love the 60’s feel and the vintage mini and its baby blue color (somewhat rare)… not that we don’t like dioni tabbers, but i’m just impressed at the chest room in the back of the this tiny of all cars. reminds me a bit of the french brand paul & joe campaign by the same photog. photographed by karen collins. by dd
what kind of an idiot would fall for this? and better yet this person is too talented to be waisting time on this shit, dog knows hollywood doesn’t have script writers this good. Im all teary eyed, sob!
“hello, in life, we only get one chance to do things right and also affect the lives of people. when i was much younger, i always wanted to make a difference in the lives of others but i never was able to do so, in the capacity that i was able to, because i didn’t have sufficient funds to do so with. when my family died in an automobile crash, i felt devastated and suffered a great emotional and psychological trauma. this is not why i am writing you now, i am writing to you because i want you to start a charity project for the less privileged people, anywhere in the world, wherever you might find them. my husband left behind a whopping sum of about 3.5 million in our account before his death. i have no need for the money anymore as i have been diagnosed with cancer and i have less than 9 weeks to live. i want you to carry out this legacy. i have no friends that i can trust with these resources. you might be wondering why i trust you? the answer is “i don’t know if i can”. i have to give you an opportunity first… my name is katherine rohaya.” by xy

dd, kl already posted this video a week ago! thought your point is making sense, agree with the h&m bits. my favorite part of the video is this one above. by pp.
hmmmm…lanvin dance contest… i’m sure it will work and do very well given the audience, even though they may not be the actual clientele of lanvin. i saw this, over the weekend when a friend was bragging how great it was. i’m not 100% convinced, but i do like the fact that it breaks with stogy world of fashion and brings some lightness and fun into fashion. now while albaz is a cooky, fun fellow, the brand isn’t. H&M pulled it off well on the lanvin, lagerfeld, and viktor & rolf spots, i think this video which is a complete reference to burning rocks (fassbinders script) which we had posted ages ago. it’s not executed as well as it could have been, and places the lanvin house line quite close to the H&M lanvin line, and that is not very brilliant. by dd
