Gypset




I just ordered a book about The Gypset (Gypsy+jet set) is about an emerging group of artists, musicians, fashion designers, surfers, and bon vivants– who lead semi-nomadic, unconventional lives….

You can look at some pages of the book here

about the book: Yuppies, Yippies, Jet Setters, Bright Young Things, Generation X, Generation Y... and now the Gypset. Fusing the ease and carefree lifestyle of a gypsy with the sophistication of the jet set, the Gypsetters are artists, surfers, designers, and bon vivants who live and work around the globe, from Jose Ignacio, Uruguay and Ibiza, Spain, to Montauk, New York. Gypset Style explores the unconventional, wanderlust lives of these high-low cultural nomads and thte bohemian enclaves they inhabit, as well as their counterculture forbears, such as the Victorian explorers, the Lost Generation, the Beatniks, and the hippies. And along the way, author Julia Chaplin looks back at quintessential gypsy boho moments in social history.

Leica HERMES Camera



This is a dream coming true I have always liked Lecia cameras and of course Hermes... Leica and fashion masters Hermès have created a limited run of a hundred 35mm cameras, retailing at $14,000 each! The camera comes in both of Hermès calfskin leather signature colorways, orange and brown, and is delivered in a silk lined box with an Atelier Hermès matching leather strap.
