Big momma is watching!

Are we really free? Why are we being watched over by cctvs? Are not we capable of watching our own steps? What is the cost of absolute freedom? What is being criminal? These are few of hundreds of questions I started asking when I saw experimental fashion designer Hussein Chalayan’s e t-shirts in his online shop.

I never thought I would feature a fashion designer in my blog. But his concept and questioning made me rethink.

When a design offers a solution it becomes beautiful and when a design poses a question it becomes compellingly beautiful.

These e t-shirts are awakening comments on our life and times.

red is hot and blue is blue

I love this amazing site The Guild ,  the place you can buy home decor products made by artists. I think the artists make everything brilliant. Only if they make it little affordable too. I enjoyed and love these red & blue elegance in glass.

ps do not forget to go through guild sourcebooks.
