OH MY GOD BACK TO SLIGHTLY KIND OF FASHION-RELATED STUFF, I will incorporate them into outfits somehow maybe eventually some day but for now, ~sharing is caring!~ so enjoy?
A bug in National Geographic, table and chairs from W, a shelf of Yohji Yamamoto shoes, Celine Fall 08 shoes, Damien Hirst's For the Love of God, Alexander McQueen Spring 09, butterfly card found in basement, Nina Ricci Fall 09, Rick Owens Fall 08?, Undercover Fall 08, Comme des Garcons Fall 09, a blurry picture from a Dior couture show from an old issue of a magazine so I don't know the year...
Kinda Norwegian Wood, 60's-themed.
Alan Aldridge body painting and book cover art, Sonia Rykiel bunny sweater, Miu Miu wedges, Pierre Hardy for Gap shoes, vintage Missoni sweater, collages by SOME PERSON I DON'T REMEMBER THE NAME GAH THEY WERE FEATURED IN AN OLD ISSUE OF FLAUNT GAH STOP INTERROGATING ME GAH, Julie Christie, Hussein Chalayan table skirt (A+), picture from old issue of NYTimes' T Magazine, Penelope Tree, another random butterfly found in basement with a girl on it (can't remember her name), a hand that was in an old issue of Nylon I think, Dior Couture from a few years ago.
PS, dontcha like how I can't figure out a logical way to order the credits so I do so randomly and expect you to know what I'm talking about?

Ahhh heavily influenced by Prada Resort.
Brady Bunch, Paul Smith, teevees from 80's Sears catalogs, Proenza Schouler Fall 08, Marni Spring 09, Sesame Street.
(Note how it says a lighter FALL. Yeah, until you get lazy and stop working on your zine, dummy.)
Geometric dome robot hippie commune in T, Miu Miu skirt, Proenza shoe (sob cry sob favorite Fall 09 shoe cry), Miu Miu Fall 09, polaroid of Fabiola Beracasa, hippie family from Time Magazine "THE LAST FORTY YEARS" thingy, Prada Spring 08 campaign, the flowers in a picture from an old issue of Elle, Nina Ricci (back when it was good), Stephen Jones shoe hat, John Paul Gaultier, more hippies.
Same kind of idea as the other one but the other one is prettier.
Vogue Australia, Nina Ricci (again, when it was good), Missoni Fall 09, John Galliano Fall 09, Antonio Marras Fall 09, Rodarte Fall 09, Acne Atacoma in GYPSY form, random picture of people brushing their teeth, random picture of murky houses, Romance Was Born, Prada Fall 09, Peter Jensen bootz, Antonio Marras Fall 09, picture Bruce Weber shot for Vogue US, flowerpot from a really old Saks ad with Irina L. in it.

Lily Donaldson in W, National Geographic.
Sidenote: When I took a picture of this, the camera face detector got the dragon vase's face but not Raquel's. Total diss.
Illustration from an old Nylon, Tao, dragon vase from National Geographic, Margiela Fall 09, sign at Woodstock, herds and herds of penguins, Raquel Zimmerman in a Chloe ad (back when it was good.)
One of my favorite color combinations is coral and blue.
Picture of weird volcanic place in National Geographic, Issey Miyake Fall '93, Jean Paul Gaultier couture, bizarre 3-D Virgin Mary postcard from joke shop, scraps of ceilings in a temple from a picture in National Geographic, a picture from the Vietnam War from that "LET'S LOOK AT THE PAST" issue of Time, and the earth in an ad for the earth or something.
Happy Monday!

Totally agree with you on Chloé. Hannah has kinda made the brand go in the direction of Balmain in the sense the all the collections are no different from one season to the next. Also, really glad that you added the photos of Prada resort because that was a really great collection. So much better than the spring collection. Prada is wonderful. Miu Miu spring 2010 is wonderful. Miuccia is wonderful. Anyway, that really has nothing to do with your wonderful collages...always seem to get carried away.
I just adore your artistic ability. Its just so flawless, I sometimes find it hard to believe you're only like 13. I especially love the first one, it really reminds me of The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. :D
I make books with pictures I tear out of magazines and I have some of the same pictures you do! And one of the pictures you have from the Prada show I have as my desktop right now. Weird! Good stuff. :)
I miss your à la Comme des Garçons home-photoshoots.. Those are the best ones.
These are so fun to make! :D I should do it again sometime. Also, thanks for giving me some inspiration. :)
You are very artistic! Love these.
Its good to see your creative side, that bloggers don't just post photos and retweet news published in magazines but have something more to offer!I would love to see some illustrations too from your side, since you are so creative love to see the unique flavour they will assume!
I have found some excellent art/illustrations in this blog too www.fashionfifthavenue.blogspot.com
It is slowing becoming one of my favourites together with a couple of other blogs like bryanboy.com, Style Bubble etc! And once again you rock!!
Can we just talk for a moment about how ridiculous it is that you're so good at putting these together...not fangirling here...I really, REALLY think you've got something here. I think you see things in a way that's very different from many people...and it's a good thing. :)
we at fledgling LOVE you tavi!
you're such an inspiration!

The images are cool, but my favourite part of all this is your hand-written thoughts and credits. I guess that sometimes it's your interpretation of fashion that interests me more than the fashion itself!
Yes, fashion as seen through your eyes has opened up creative possibilities that I hadn't seen before! Thanks <3 And it's Happy Tuesday to you, from where I'm sitting :-)
love the National Geographic pages that sit alongside
connections I had never imagined
I realy like it.
lovely!
I love it! =)

Very creative, I love them :)
Love, love vanilla
Great zining! I never finish my zines too... ;)

Were you intentionally making the comparison of Prada resort to Sesame street, or is that my mind working overtime?
Sometimes I do the same with pictures. Loving your results!
With love,
yeah, watching freaks and geeks for the FIRST time was incomparable to anything, really. I know how you feel :)
And these collages, they're so great. You're creative and it shows.
Great collages - so inspiring! & filled with so many beautiful images... plus sesame street! haha! LOVE IT :)

xx
I have to say that i agree with Emily, your so going to be a magazine editor some day!
How fun to do this! I also used to do these collages when I was younger, but it's a good idea for fun time now also!
Does Lily Donaldson look like Uma Thurman in that photo or what?
Have a super fun day

OMG! I saw ELMO!!! Sorry, I'm a bit obsessed with him at the moment...

===========================================================
Tavi,
I surely admire your feel for fashion, change, and what is happening now!
As a fashion design college student, i highly advise you to take advantage of the free time that you have now as a middle school student/ high school student. You are lucky to have such time to be purely creative and to share your ideas with the rest of the industry/ world.
ps. Where do you plan on going to college if that thought has entered your mind yet?
I do this too. These are so inspirational, lovely!
These are awesome! I made numerous 'inspiration books' when I was in high school and I should probably share them eventually on the blog. Also, SESAME STREET!
Elmo! I luv Elmo as a child:)

Love it all! Very inspiring :)

As always... beyond impressed, and inspired by your charmismatic reviews. The collages are a bonus on the eye candy front. If I were still 14, I would want to be your best friend.
Fabulous collage Tavi!!!!!
I love the way you mix everything , I found great that you put the Prada Resort, it's fantastic!!!!!! I Love it!!! and the whole idea with the dragon, National Geographic, Times and earth!!!!WOW...... the best creativity way to start the WEEK!!!!!!
Thank you Lady Tavi!!!!
Kisses :)
I HAVE JUST STARTED WATCHING FREAKS AND GEEKS FOR THE FIRST TIME.
I WATCHED 4 EPISODES IN A ROW LAST NIGHT AND I AM DYING TO SEE THE REST.
IT IS LIFE CHANGING.
NO DOUBT.
Hi you! Do you know how to use Photoshop to do collage? Once you do that you will be dangerous! Some pics are too small to enjoy. I love the thought you put into it. I found some vintage National Geos at an antique treasures shop, now I am thinking to go back and scoop them up!http://lara-serbin.blogspot.com
I'm impressed at your ability to credit nearly every photo in that impressive collection!
I keep an inspiration book too, but I love the sheer imagination of some of the pages here. Especially the one with the Sesame Street characters coupled with some colourful clothes..
I could probably talk about all of them, but I'll just leave it here by saying I like them very much!

i wish i was 13 again and had your potential and self-confidence. we used to dress up like you do back in the days and play games.
play on pretty kid!
luv from vienna
pascale

oh my god tavi, the long dress with checks on bottom? and the headpiece lily danaldson is wearing? EPIC
Maybe the artist Jan Fabre will interest you. The first collage reminded me of his work and vocabulaire...
I like this post, amazing!

You always have the best commentary and interpretations of fashion. Thanks for making fashion fun and creative, rather than intimidating and pretentious (as it can be portrayed). I could go on forever about your collages, but I'll keep it short - they're amazing. Keep it up!

National Geographic truly has some of the most inspiring images I've seen.

I spent a disgustingly large chunk of time last week collaging and watching Freaks & Geeks for the first time! Crazy stuff!
I also got my Roadrte X Target cardigan from UPS today. Thank you thank you thank you. It's lovely and it fits perfectly and I can not wait to wear it!
Wow, this is so great! I've been trying to do something like this myself, but to no avail.
Collages are cool. I love seeing other collages, but I don't do them myself. Your pictures are interesting, with the different subjects.
If only I had a sliver of the patience required to make so many collages of really awesome images! I'm getting jealous.
HOWEVER
Chloe could be worse.
Um
remember the embroidered-horse shorts from the era of Stella McCartney?
'nuff said.
One word: WOW.
Nice blog
Great layout

I'm completely crazy about your inspiration books (if thats the right word?) hehe
I'm norwegian too! I just thought I'd let you know...
would love if you checked out my blog :)

Yo dawg, I love the zine. I've been neglecting my collage-book lately. Perhaps I should whip out the trusty ol' scissors.
Loving your collages!
Thanks guys! <3
Ross-intentional!
I haven't really thought about what college I want to go to.
i've always wanted to make a sort of inspiration book, you've inspired me to start. and i love the photo of the dragonfly from NG.

Yo, I just sat through my first Renaissance through Rococo Art History class and we TOTES looked at a bunch of Virgin Mary icons and paintings and she was always wearing blue and coral/reddish. Probably symbolizes something, but we haven't gotten that far yet.
lovely stick ups. you are just too hot
I like this comment!

Hey Tavi -
Is that vase covered in honeycomb an art piece by Aganetha Dyck? She's pretty amazing.
Nice blog, just started reading :)
M.
these juxtapositions are brilliant - you have a good eye.
not a new reader, but commenting for the first time. hi!
If you finished this zine, I would definetely buy one! What a wonderful thing to have for in the future when you're even more mega sucessful!! :)
Your feel the same as I do about Chloe, Phoebe was so good as the head of the House. I just did a post about her debut collection @ Celine. You should read it and tell me what you think.
Thanks,
Domino

lol, very Mori Girl style feeling to me, those 'zine pages, and your style leanings lately, and it works :)
oops, and forgot to say, mani-pedi with 1/2 CG 'For Audrey' (old) and 1/2 OPI 'A Good Mandarin is Hard to Find' (new) either shiny or with Matte Magic is my fun blue-coralish combo for spring, if you like some bright fingers? ( I notice Tavi hides her hands sometimes, hmmmm, could she be a biter?!) I plan to exploit the Pantone Turquoise all I can! I am enjoying your blog (but in small doses^.^)
stunning :) sometimes i do this instead of homework.
Wow. KO fashion. But, really, it's you're writing- so much fun and honesty- I read you like a novel. (non-fiction, of course.)
People are worried about your future? because of missed school? I would love to take your "field trips!" Pretty sure you're future has been left unscathed.
Tavi!! I'm jealous. I wanna be like you... I am twelve. I wanna have blue hair, I wanna have a salvation army that just has cute stuff rather than thrown up on ball gowns. sigh.... When I sew barbie fahsion in the weekends I wonder if it is blog worthy...Rei Kawakubo, can I be your friend...*sigh*
heavens to betsey. the earth has landed on planet earth. what a national discovery that we must put in national geographic that is actually INTERNATIONAL. i love the volcanic plates. very flattering.
