Mouche Gallery - Mick Fleetwood "Rythm of a Rose" Art Exhibition

Monday, June 18th was the grand opening of Mouche Gallery in Beverly Hills.  Mouche Gallery features really cool and unique photos of rock bands, as well as photos taken by some great public figures who are also exquisite fine artists.  One of these fine artists is Mick Fleetwood known as the drummer and co-founder of the band Fleetwood Mac who presented "Rhythm of a Rose" Art Exhibition and appeared in person to support his work and the Gallery's opening night.  In his photos, Mac Fleetwood gives breath to the life of a rose.  His unique approach to photography comes from him traveling the world and observing our planet from his very unique point of view.  You can see a sample of his work here.  I highly recommend visiting Mouche Gallery and seeing the rest of the exhibition.  They have assembled a stunning collection of works and I am sure you will find other treasures while you are there.  As for me I could not resist including a photo of my favorite band here.  :)

"The world of nature is something I have always been passionate about and it has been a huge inspiration for my photographs.  The camera lens is like a magic window that transports me into a secret world.  In that world I observe shapes and details that I might not generally see even though the subjects are right before my eyes. I am fascinated by the intricate structure and design found in nature, and through my photography I hope to unveil this invisible world that sometimes goes unnoticed."  -Mick Fleetwood

The Little Black Jacket

Karl Lagerfeld promoted the New York opening of The Little Black Jacket—an exhibit of photos, styled by Carine Roitfeld, of celebrities wearing the classic Chanel piece, due out in book form this fall.

The title refers to Chanel’s iconic black tweed jacket and Mr. Lagerfeld, in collaboration with former longtime French Vogue editor, reimagined ways (120 of them) the jacket could be worn and interpreted.

The little black dress and the little black jacket are two must have pieces in your closet.  These are two of the pieces that you should invest in and buy from a designer brand.  And we owe all this to the house of Chanel.

Notre-Dame de Paris

I just finished reading "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" by Victor Hugo. There is a reason why some books become classic and never lose their relevance. Victor Hugo is a great and timeless writer and one of my favorites. Some might already know the story of this book, but what is great about reading it is the characterization and the way they all interact. It is so rich and effects you in the deepest way. La Esmeralda is beautiful inside and out. Phoebus is handsome on the outside, but so empty on the inside. Quasimodo is ugly on the outside but a good person inside. Maybe he would be smarter if he was not deaf! I like the sense of justice he gives the reader at the end of the book. Claude Frollo is the evil priest! Ugly on the outside and inside. However, one of the characters that touched me a lot is Jehan Frollo, son of a richman who run through his fortune and the younger brother of the evil priest. He chooses to become a tramp and confesses: "I am a tramp to my heart's core, a con man in my soul, a born crook." I don't think it is a good thing to become or want to be a tramp, not even Jehan who grew up under the pressure from his family. This sentence touched me because of the people who are born into a body with a soul or desires that don't match. For those who have to endure arranged marriages and are born into families with complete different view of looking at life. Or to live in a body that they don't recognize and don't feel at home in. My respect goes to the individuals who choose their own way and have the courage to live life the way they want to, even if they have to make difficult decisions to get there. Even if they have to decide between their vision and family.
