    Zachary Pryor's Unique Jewelry Is Love At First Sight

    New York artist Jesse Utt travels to various spaces to showcase a spunky and shameless collection of wall-hanging artwork -- and makes jewelry-making look like child's play. As attractive as his artwork is on canvas, it's his Zachary Pryor accessories line that's so beguiling, we'd never want to take off. His earrings and necklaces resemble a scrapbook collage of trunk collectibles that are a perfect way to add crafty edge to your style. Metal chains, color contrast and charms all lend a hand in shaping the tasteful trinkets that have found their way to the necks and wrists of art-loving A-listers like Mary-Kate Olsen and Avril Lavigne. Jesse, under the trade name Zachary Pryor (a name that covertly pays homage to his grandmother and plays off a name that he could've been donned at birth) has made wearing art -- and making a statement -- easy. While his past works feature canvas-mimicking illustrations, his most recent follow either a more industrial style that is loud and evocative, or a fierce, whimsical style with bright feathers. Catch some of the lust-worthy eye candy in this slideshow and fall in love with the originality of these essentially one-of-a-kind Zachary Pryor accessories!

    The red carpet was certainly rolled out last Monday night at the annual Whitney Musuem Gala for its parade of high-profile attendees from across the film, fashion, and art industries. While guests like Shakira, Chanel Iman, and Alexa Chung discussed their own artistic talents (or lack thereof) over filet mignon appetizers, drooled over Gerard Butler, and listened to Jennifer Hudson's show-stopping mid-dinner performance, other gala-goers couldn't help but just people-watch. After all, Lindsay Lohan was quite a... vision in that daringly short gold dress. And Taylor Momsen's thigh-high slit complete with fishnet stockings was an interesting sight in the context of such a black-tie affair. Both were reportedly mistaken for the event's host, Donatella Versace -- which can either be perceived as somewhat of a compliment or... not so much. Watch the slideshow for some pictures of the gowns and glitz on the red carpet! Photo Credit: PR Photos

    Have you been spending too much time sucked into the monotony of your work routine and need a vacation that will simultaneously provide relaxation and an in-your-face dose of artistic expression? If so, I've found the perfect place for you to kick back! Berlin's Arte Luise Kunsthotel is located within view of the Reichstag building and the Spree river, providing you with the prime location for a little culture and history lesson. The hotel itself, which dates back to 1825, is so imaginative in its design it hardly looks real, even after a few dozen blinks to convince yourself you're not hallucinating. Each of the hotel's 50 rooms has been decorated by a different renowned artist, featuring an array of original themes from Comic to Shoe Fetish, and seemingly transports you inside the psyche of the artist -- no matter how whimsical or twisted -- providing a getaway within a getaway just within the walls of your room! Don't let the establishment's old-fashion roots fool you though -- its modern amenities help provide the comforts of home while you enjoy the hotel's artistic decor and the city's rich historical significance. Check the slideshow for a glimpse of the hotel's unique rooms!

    Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall...

    Let's be honest -- we all kind of love checking ourselves out. Whether we're sneaking a peek in the reflection of a street-side window, or openly (well, privately, really) gussying up to dance and sing in front of an imagined-audience-of-many, mirrors play an important part in our lives. Hell, I'm not sure many of us could go a day without seeing a mirror at some point. The best mirrors, however, are ones that are beautiful on their own, without the help of our lovely selves standing in front of them. And the best of mirror-makers are those that consider themselves artists, creating wonderful masterpieces that sometimes seem better fit in a gallery than, say, above your bathroom sink. Turn your home into a gallery that bills your face as the main attraction with the interesting accents that these artists have designed to make these mirrors of our pretty faces. Check out this slideshow to take a peek at some of the coolest mirrors out there!

    Dino-Ray Ramos on janv. 21, 2009 11:19 AM PST
    Artist Jeremy Blake was known for his knack for fusing traditional paintings with digital art. Now, all-American designer Tommy Hilfiger has teamed up with Free Arts NYC, a foundation that provides underprivileged children with educational arts and mentoring programs, to create a limited edition tote to honor Blake (who passed in July 2007) with his artistic whimsy that pays homage to the USA. Blake was an avid supporter of Free Arts NYC, and all the proceeds from the sales of the bag will fund a new photography program for low-income children in New York City. The tote is available at Tommy Hilfiger retail locations in Miami, New York, and Washington D.C., or online at www.tommy.com.


    Price: $125

    Who Found It: DinoRay was the first to add the Tommy Hilfiger Limited Edition Jeremy Blake Tote to the Hive.
