Lea Colombo

Illustrator, Photographer & Really cool Capetonian


I found these photographs and illustrations while trolling around the internet. I love the 60's Polaroid effect with the simple illustrations drawn over them. They have this really creepy and enigmatic feel to them. The reason I love them the most is because the illustrator and photographer, Lea Colombo is Capetonian!

I got really excited and uploaded so many images.

Thanks Lea Colombo and Mr Price 'In the fashion loop' blog

All my All Stars

"Chuck Taylors", "Converses", "All Stars", "Chucks" or "Cons, "Chuck Taylors"


I'm dying to have a pair on new all white All Stars. I see them everywhere and I really want! I got my first pair in 2005 and they've been holding strong (and dirty) as all Chuck's should. So, this weekend is my birthday and I now have a gift idea. For myself.

Thanks to The Sartorialist for the Converse Tags (and also making my life)

Para-Para-Paradise

When she was just a girl, she expected the world


I didn't go to the Coldplay concert in Cape Town because I'm not a particular fan but I somehow seem to be engulfed in the post-Coldplay mania and this amazing new music video is the reason for this insistent persistence.

I love it. And I love elephants and animal rights.
