Simple symmetry
I've been in Paris this week, and amongst all the hustle and bustle of the shows, this simple fruit stall caught my eye. I love the super simple visual merchandising, and the graphic effect of colourful layered fruit.
Very Prada spring summer 2011…

Good Clean Fun
I just wanted to show you my favourite fashion week invitation so far.
Menswear designer Omar Kashoura sent a jar of homemade apple and strawberry jam to invite people to his presentation as part of NewGen - an initiative launched by the British Fashion Council to promote menswear design talent.
More fashion week news to come soon...

I'm definitely a fan of the jam, and am looking forward to seeing if I'll be a fan of the collection too!

Cake with a cause
From August 27th-29th The Future Gallery will be hosting Cake Britain; the world's first edible art exhibition!
Artists including David A Smith and George Morton-Clarke will collaborate with bakers such as Prudence Staite and Lily Vanilli to create an array of arty cakes, buns and biscuits. Visitors are also invited to get involved, as workshops and masterclasses will take place over the weekend.
All the artworks displayed are fresh fare, which is where visitors get an opportunity to interact i.e. eat, their way through the pieces on display.
Finally, some art you can really get your teeth in to!
I thought I'd include a few of my favourite cakes to set the mood. Rainbow cake seen on www.fredbutlerstyle.com, cupcakes and burger birthday cake from www.alicethebaker.blogspot.com

What a dude!
I really must start referencing the images I take, as I can't remember the name of this piece-nor the artist!
Anyway, I saw this sculture on a recent trip to Paris. He sits in the foyer of the Museum of Modern Art, and it looks as though he's made entirely of spaghetti! His sad eyes protrude from the sea of spaghetti that forms his body, and his 10 foot scale makes him a real spectacle. I couldn't help but think of Roald Dahl's BFG when I saw him.
I hope you like him as much as I do.

Designer Food
I find this video strangely fascinating. Directer Stephen Blaise and creative direction Catherine Camille Cushman asked a selection of designers to create different cakes; the results are almost as beautiful as the clothing they make.
Watch the video and see if you can guess which designer created which culinary delight-answers below
