News From the Craft + Style Blogosphere: August 7, 2008

After a sun-filled vacation to Las Vegas, I'm back in Brooklyn and searching out trends for fall. Look for mucho fashion content in the near future! If you notice any trends, please send them my way. 

This edition of News from the Craft + Style Blogosphere has Scottish ski lodges, fashion forward internet mags, royal mosaics and more. Read on! 


Street style blogs' can sometimes seem so homogenous—at least when it comes to the stylish women who make repeat appearances across the blogosphere. Refinery29 recently profiled these "cyber It chicks of tomorrow," including the white-browed Emma Andersson of London, seen above. 


I'm looking forward to spending some quality cabin time (QCT!) this summer. (Hopefully this winter as well.) This Scottish ski lodge, decorated by amazing interiors guru Suzy Hoodless, makes me ache for snuggly blankets and hot toddies in front of a roaring fire. [Via A Cup of Jo]


This majestic portrait of Russian Empress Yelizaveta Petrovna is from The Russian Museum in St. Petersburg. However, upon closer inspection, you'll see that it's actually a super intricate mosaic. The sad thing is that the artist is unknown. So awe-inspiring. [Via Krisatomic]

 
wonting's blog is totally addictive. This week she posted photos of Geninne's gorgeous space, which totally matches her modern aesthetic. [Via wonting]


When fashionistas need a quick fix, they go to the internet—not a magazine—as reported in today's New York Times Style section. For me, it's all too true. Blogger Design for Mankind has just started an internet magazine called Mankind Mag, and it's pretty slick! Check out the second issue, which is totally devoted to hair.


Flickr photographers continually blow my mind. This doozy comes courtesy of Julia Galdo of miamizeiss. [Via For Me, For You]
