If you’re not familiar with Paul Octavious, perhaps you’ve been buried beneath a hill?! I was introduced to his work via instagram last year and was immediately taken by his stunning offbeat photography and design work. He’s since become an internet superstar. Based in Chicago, he has partnered with The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Paris Review, Pitchfork, Nike, Threadless and many other blue chip publishers and brands. But it’s his personal projects and random snaps that delight and inspire me most, specifically “Same Hill Different Day.” Octavious has photographed the same hill along a lakefront near Montrose Harbor over the past couple years - from quiet foggy mornings to afternoon kite festivals to fireworks at night. It is simple in premise yet extraordinarily beautiful.

Be sure to check out Paul’s site and his killer instagram feed. My sister and I always joke that he is either one step ahead or behind her on the streets of Chicago – they hang at a lot of the same places. In fact, I saw Paul at Renegade Craft Fair in Bucktown last month, but he had a video cameo filming him, so I didn’t want to interrupt. Too bad! Would love to thank him personally for his inspiring work.

Fifties model Jeannie Patchett in a striped headscarf on the cover of July 1951 Vogue. Simple – and yet so striking. Once again, would love to see more timeless images like this on today’s Vogue. I think the magazine can do so much better, especially with creatives like Grace Coddington and André Leon Talley involved. This month’s cover with Keira Knightley is uninspired (though Lady Gaga’s September issue made a fantastic and strong statement). Dig deeper Vogue!

Mmmmm, how fabulous is this 1950s ‘Grand Guignol’ gown by Christian Dior? Featured here in Vogue, May 1951. A soft shirt of silk organdie with a slash of red panels over the black taffeta skirt. Delicious, and more remarkably, timeless.

I’ve been unfashionably lazy when it comes to work attire of late. It’s summer and sweaty-humid-hot in NYC and I haven’t been putting in the effort. This desk/accessory inspiration is just what I needed! Now excuse me as I get back to typing…

ALL ABOUT this new Monocle issue: Australia, A Superpower in the South Pacific. While I was living there 2000-01, the country was a bit of a sleeper. Unaffected by the global financial crisis, and boosted by export demands from China, that’s no longer the case.

“With a pivotal geographic location, a vibrant media culture uniting both Asian and European markets, and a flourishing defense sector, Australia is in prime position to become a new, fresh-faced regional superpower.”

No, Kate Moss in a glossy is nothing new. But hats off to W Magazine and stylist Edward Enninful for a cover and fashion spread that is. Captivating.
