Artist - Julie Verhoeven

Julie's yellow hair and pale face was quite easy to notice along the sidewalk. It made me curious and I  wanted to know more about her, so I decided to say hellu. Little did I know that Julie is a really great multitalented artist, working with a mix of fashion, illustration, design and video. After a quick look at her website (julieverhoeven.com), I found out that she had done work for pretty much all the biggest names in the fashion industry; Versace, H&M, Louis Vuitton, Dazed, you name it. As well as some beautiful decoration work for one of my favorite London restaurants, Sketch. 

Hipster Shoe Lady

Mary was almost too cute to be true. I crossed my fingers when walking towards her, hoping she would agree to be photographed. She seemed a bit strict at first, but she wasn't at all. In fact, she laughed about me wanting to photograph her, and asked if it wasn't expensive for me to take so many photos. Happy as a smily-face, I explained to her about the digital age and how I could view the photos straight away. Mary was obviously up to date with the latest fashion. Her shoes can be found on youngsters all over London, and her jacket I thought was quite trendy as well.

The Coming Architect

Today I met another fellow Bushey Hill neighbor on my way home from coffee. When I saw him, Kwame(23) had just tuned in to his music and was about to pass me, but with a little hello, I managed to catch his attention. We talked for a bit and I found out we had some common interest. Kwame studies architecture, but also has a deep interest in fashion, design and art. He gave me the address to his blog, which I have to say is pretty cool, hence the name: The Vault of Ultimate Cool. Check it out!!
