Hold me now, it's hard for me to say I'm sorry.. I just want you to know.

I, but I guess we, are sorry that we didn't put so much blogs on this.
And because we are so sorry we reincarnated the Beatles and made ringo dance for you.
So enjoy, and be patient. 'Cause Bobby has all the time to write stuff, and I.. well I have school you know! (I'll write stuff too..)

I kind of thought I'd only do this until friday, but because I'm such a loser, I'll continue for a few more days (or just one. you never know!) Alright. So. Today it's Sadie Harris who's going to make you happy with her pictures. Sadie is a 17 year old girl who says she's boring. I don't believe her. Sadie Harris has 212 digital pictures, 176 film pictures, 183 pictures full of blood, 59 pictures in fur, 51 sf/santa cruz 08 pictures and 43 +++ pictures. Just so you know.

Cool people who make nice things: Viktor Vauthier

I said I'd try to do this every day, but I just moved into my new house, friends came over, movies had to be seen, glee had to be watched etc etc. So there was little time for anything else. But here I am anyway, to introduce you to the wonderful Viktor Vauthier. I love his name. I can say it over and over in my head and I'll never get tired of it. It looks lovely as well. He has a blog here on blogspot and my dashboard is always full of his posts (he doesn't post 10 pictures in one post, he posts them all induvidualy. Don't ask me why). His pictures of pretty people and places make me happy. Here are some of my favourites:

Time Flies: Beatnik Style

Time flies, but then again times return. At least they do in fashion.


The funny thing is I'm gonna tell you about Beatnik, which isn't just a fashion thing but a media stereotype (so says Wikipedia). I first found Beatnik in one of my timeline fashion books. There was a picture of a girl drinking beer and she was wearing just a sweater and tights. Shortly after I found the picture, I got my new Elle. In there I saw a girl in just a sweater and tights. Beatnik!
The media hype thing started when Jack Kerouac wrote in his biography about a so called 'Beat Generation'. Jack was a sort of celebirty so the Times wrote about it, and other tabloids did this to. But what exactly is the Beatnik?
The term caught on because it could mean anything. Well that explains, not. It was everything that was cool those days. It could be a religion, as Jack believed himself. Beatniks threw parties were they drunk beer and stole each others wives. They were the pro-hippies. People took the term Beat and used it for anything close to culture, movies, music. Beatnik inspired Beatles, Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan.
Last but not least, the fashion. Black sweaters, black tights, black berets and for some reason bongo's. Look outside of your window, love, you see it nowadays everywhere. Oversized sweaters rule. Beatnik is coming back? I hope so. It was an culture revolution.

The movie: The Beatniks
I could have posted this under Cool People Who Make Nice Things, because Jack did a very good job here. But I let Bobby do her thing to.

Cool people who make nice things: Kevineubanks

Hello,
Number two, a little late because yesterday I had not enough time. I saw 'An Education'. I'll probably write more about that later. For now I present to you: Kevineubanks on flickr. I don't quite know what to make from that. Maybe his name is kevin and his last name eubanks? Lets just pretend his name is Kevin and don't care about his last name! His profile doesn't reveal any information, but I assume it's a guy who live 'somewhere' in America. Move on to the pictures then? I started to like him because of his Ferris Wheels. I love those. He shoots film and does some funny double exposures. But I'll just let you judge for yourself:
