The Luxe Series by Anna Godbersen: Pretty girls in pretty dresses, partying until dawn. Irresistible boys with mischievous smiles and dangerous intentions. Who else has read it? Anyone? I can hardly wait until the third novel comes out! (The model for the second book cover is Taylor Warren!)

I'm trying to find the best fashion magazine. I have a subscription to Australian Vogue and Russh. I have to say one of the best I've read recently has been Oyster Magazine. It had a fantastic interview with Karl Lagerfeld. What's yours?

Like movie quotes, but for books. Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk All god does is watch us and kill us when we get boring. We must never, ever be boring. Sometimes your best way to deal with shit is to not hold yourself as such a precious little prize. Your birth is a mistake you'll spend your whole life trying to correct. The only way to find true happiness is to risk being completely cut open. I'm tired of this world of appearances. Pigs that only look fat. Families that look happy. No matter how much you think you love somebody, you'll step back when the pool of their blood edges too close. What it boils down to is professional modeling means getting paid to over…

Hi All, I am new to this forum. I signed up because I need some help if that's allowed? I am thankful for all who takes the time to read my post. I exhausted all my savings to buy this book. I am terribly upset about what has happened and cannot do this on my own. So here I am. I don't know where to go and have contacted Angels by Russell James, but so far will not accept returns. date: Mar 30, 2019, 2:05 AM Re: ******** inquired on “Angels (2018) Collector's Edition book” (2018) by Russell James "I’m sorry but we really won’t be able to do that. To risk shipping it to and from Australia/Phoenix would very likely damage the book even more. It’…

So I have only read Interview with the Vampire, Memnoch the Devil, and Blood Canticles! I have to say my favorite was Memnoch as well as Interview. Nicolas, is purdy cur-azy in my flippin opinion...whoo! But I understand his cynical views. Anywho, what is your guys' favorite book of the Vampire Chronicles? I would really like to know.

General photography that you like. He's usually reknowned for landscape work and his use of large format cameras, but he is incredible at portraits, too (in this case, with a 35mm). This is probably one of the most saddening and touching pictures I've seen.

Matt Dixon (b.1972) Matt Dixon was born in Birmingham, UK, in 1972 and he has been an enthusiastic waver of pens and pencils for as long as he can remember. All his work is now created digitally, a process which he finds significantly faster and more efficient than traditional methods. "Digital art first captured my imagination when I began to assemble images from ASCII characters on a Commodore VIC-20 way back in 1980 - happily, things have moved along a little and Adobe Photoshop allows me to achieve slightly more sophisticated results than I got back then. "I think that's part of the draw I have to fantasy and sci-fi subjects. Often the girls portrayed in genre a…

Luis Royo was born in Cutanda, Teruel (Spain) in 1945. When he became of age, he studied drawing, art and design. During the seventies he worked in several design studios while focussing on his painting. He took part in various joint exhibitions and his work was shown in individual exhibitions in different cities in Spain. His interests expanded into comics and by the early eighties he was published internationally in such magazines as 1984, Comic International, Rambala and occasionally, El Vibora and Heavy Metal. Much of his art can be found in online comic books and other media. In 1983 he began a longstanding relationship with Norma Editorial and devoted himse…

ALBERTO VARGAS was born in Arequipa, Peru, on February 9, 1896, as the son of successful photographer Max T. Vargas. After extensive art studies in France and Switzerland, he immigrated to New York City before World War I and became the official painter for the Ziegfield Follies in 1919. In 1934, he moved to Hollywood, California, where he painted posters and designed sets for major movie studios. When he was hired to replace pinup artist George Petty at Esquire magazine in 1940, his work became so popular that during World War II, his female seminudes adorned uniform jackets, aircrafts, and battleships. In the late 1950s, Hugh Hefner invited Alberto …

Who are your favorite famous photographers?

This is a thread where you introduce your favorite art pieces to BZ. I'd like to limit it to non-performing arts. So paintings, sculptures, architecture, an conceptual art are all acceptable. To get us started: Resurrezione di Lazzaro by Caravaggio Before I start explaining why I like this painting, I should probably mention that I am a great admirer of abstract art. There is very little in the Baroque era that I really love, yet this painting finds itself easily in my top ten. Why is hard to explain without access to the piece itself. Just believe me when I tell you that the picture I included above does not even capture 1/100th of the power of seeing this piece in…

The Fault in Our Stars is the fourth solo novel by author John Green, in which a sixteen-year-old cancer patient named Hazel is forced by her parents to attend a support group, where she meets and falls in love with the seventeen-year-old Augustus, an ex-basketball player and amputee. On his Tumblr blog and his YouTube vlog, Green stated that "the title is inspired by a famous line from Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar (Act 1, scene 2). The nobleman Cassius says to Brutus, 'The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, / But in ourselves, that we are underlings.'" On February 1, 2012, the film rights to the book were optioned by Fox 2000.[1]
