. . . and a part of the weekend was spent in the countryside, back gardens and magnolia blossoms, and it was so very lovely to drive out of the busy-ness of the city for a while; and the week has begun in spring sunlight, cups of coffee and conversations before breakfast, and although so much has been done in the past weeks, there is still much to, and so, it's for now, more coffee and a beautiful new week . . .
I am really glad that someone like David Chang has introduced Korean Cuisine to those who may not have been so familiar with it before. I am 100% sure all of you are familiar with Momufuku Ssam Bar and his other restaurants, and some very common things like Korean bbq, bibimbap, or even jap chae…So I thought it would be too redundant to re-introduce those things, even though I did start off with bibimbap… Two major Korean dishes that most non-Koreans don’t know about…. Shinsunro , or Goo Jul Pan , these are two that fall into the Korean Royal Court Cuisine category. This style of cooking existed during the Joseon dynasty, people of nobility enjoyed these dishes. It’s a miniature version of a precious feast…! One of the most important things about this dish is the miniature brazier that you’ll use..

Psychology People aren’t very good at media multitasking - like reading a book while watching TV - but do it anyway because it makes them feel good, a new study suggests. The findings showed that multitasking often gave the students an emotional boost, even when it hurt their cognitive functions, such as studying. The results showed that participants were more likely to multitask when they reported an increase in cognitive needs (such as study or work) or habitual needs or both. That means, for example, that the students were more likely to multitask when they needed to study (a cognitive need). I agree with this; and it is one evidence of why quality in the arts is lacking these days.

KARLA'S CLOSET
As you probably know from reading my blog, a lot of my vintage finds come from Shareen Vintage. The place is a giant warehouse filled with beautiful clothes, and although the selection is huge, everything is well-edited. There is something for everyone- from 90s grunge florals to a 50s swing skirt. Since it's one of my favorite places to shop (and play dress up), I figured it was only right for me to share a few photos with you...
A Continuous Lean.
A few years ago when Hermès renovated its NYC flagship it decided to exile its men’s shop across the street to its very own stand alone shop. This resulted in a first for the storied French luxury brand, the world’s only Hermès men’s shop . Not only is it exclusively menswear, the shop also boasts one of the most lust worthy bespoke programs ever imagined. It’s like a French Savile Row, except the work rooms aren’t downstairs, they’re in Paris.
Saturday turned suddenly cold, after this heat wave in the UK, and I was stuck in traffic and rushing through the Oxford Street Saturday shopping circus, afraid I'd be late for my interview with Orla Kiely. When I arrived at Uniqlo I was greeted by posies. Pockets of posies at the entrance: sweet smiling spring flowers, like kisses. Then I rushed upstairs to meet her and her lovely team.

Happy Easter guys! I love this story I did for Tank Magazine that’s out now, Aya Kanai did the styling and I got to choose some of my outfits. This magnificent dress is by Jason Wu and was incredibly fun to shoot. Jason Nocito was a cool photographer to work with, his way of shooting was very energetic and always moving. I was moving so much that day that I had small bruises all over.
