Lenny Kravitz for The Block Magazine
Caribbean-Jewish Lenny Kravitz is one of MY sexiest men alive. He is super talented and always looks delicious! He always
looks crazy comfortable in everything he wears and everything
he wear
seems labeless and THAT'S a style icon to me! Beside, no one can wears a
nose ring, nipple piercings, a man-purse, skin tight wet-shirt or even
a dress and heeled boots with more masculinity than Lenny! Can
you believe he is 47 years old?
Here he is, photographed by Steven Pan for the Vancouver magazine The Block Magazine Fall/Winter 2011/12 issue.
Styled by The Block's creative director, James Worthington-DeMolet.
Lenny looking dangerously sexy in a Yigal Azrouël hooded sweater, trousers by Robert Geller, necklace by the amazing Pamela Love Nyc, belt from Artemas Quibble and boots by Rick Owen. All the other jewelry worn throughout the shoot is Lenny's own.
Looking very glam in a Antonio Azzuolo fur collar coat, t-shirt by All Saints, leather trousers by Julius, boots by Rick Owens, ring by Lady Grey, the gold chain (worn as bracelets) is from Stephen Dweck and the sunglasses are from Carrera.
Here is Lenny wearing a coat from Lanvin, his t-shirt and scarf are from Robert Geller, trousers from Paul Smith, rings are from Pamela Love and the sunglasses are from Marc by Marc Jacobs.

20 years of Christian Louboutin
20 beautiful years of Christian Louboutin
The French shoemaker famous for his red-soled shoes is releasing a book dedicated to his most fantastical designs of the last 20 years. It would make a great coffee table book for any shoe lovers! The Christian Louboutin company came into existence in the year of 1992 and his first store was opened in Paris.. mais bien sûr! All of his boutiques are different, but all designed and decorated by Christian Louboutin himself.
The shoes on this page are some of my favorite that would look pretty fantastical in my closet! I think his shoes have a magic power that can make people happy. ❤
Did you know that his famous red soles were inspired by an employee's nail polish?

I have always wanted a motorcycle.. but went I was younger I wanted a chopper!! I get that passion from my dad. I love that amazing feeling of freedom and "rebelliousness" when you are on a bike!! It's like flying!
Did you know that the word chopper actually come from the post World War 2 era? Yep, In order to make their motorcycle go faster, service mans remove/chop unnecessary parts of their motorcycle. Then they added a longer fork and higher handlebars. Best of all.. custom choppers always have incredible bad ass art work!

When I was 17, I did art work on motorcycle helmets using airbrush and paint. My airbrush pen was a gift from this great tattoo artist from Quebec. He like my paintings and he made me premise that I would never stop doing art. He thought me a lot and he inspired me to always wanna create and to follow my dreams. Few weeks later, I moved from Quebec City to Toronto and I was calling "Jim Davis/Garfield" office asking them if I could work for him! :)
