When it comes to design, settling for less just isn’t an option. No longer are people asking for walk in wardrobes but instead, Dream Dressing Rooms. This chic concept is so hot on the menu it is burning up the internet. Women everywhere are saving inspirational photos from their Pinterest accounts. Who wouldn’t do that right? We all enjoy a beautiful photo now and then. And when it comes to design, why not be your own interior designer.

The golden era can only be shared with a romantic twist. A mood that transforms you into an electrified junkie. Synthesizers echoed through the metallic age of energetic anthems, big hair, tight colourful clothes, and beats we can’t get enough of. Who am I describing? The Foxies of course.

As an artist, the common goal is to inspire your audience with moments we treasure, adventures we go on, and spark inspiration in our souls. Music in 2017, is becoming rather lukewarm. Artists of all genres are starting to sound the same and by today’s standards noise is to be accepted.

The weather outside may be frightful, but the style is so delightful. From oversized tailored coats to metallic tops, the fashion this season is really heating up. As we step into Christmas, there is a new pair of femininity and ease, mixed with glamour in fashion as metallic fabrics tease us with the allure of joy and magic this season, while keeping us ready for wherever the weather may take us. Comfort dressing is elevated from a downtown favourite into an all-occasion staple, while exaggerated silhouettes dominate daywear. For elegance rooted in cool luxury and relaxed strength, now is the time to embrace change, with as much or as little drama as you like.

The idea for this creative issue came to me in the Fall. I was working on many other exciting projects and started to miss doing some thought provoking interviews. I love getting to know the person a bit more and see what is behind their creative image. Have you ever watched an interview on TV or read one online and thought, they ask these questions a lot it feels repetitive? I don’t know about you but I prefer hearing and reading the unexpected. I have gotten to know quite a lot of creative forces in the fashion and art industry. It seems everyone who loves to express themselves wishes to let their voices be heard.

What makes a true artist stand out above the crowd? Someone who can grab your attention without going over the top. If someone tends to come off a bit predictable then you as a consumer will expect the same beige attitude. Sometimes in art and fashion, we take ourselves too seriously, and I think right now is the moment, we need to laugh a bit more about things. Perfection is highly overrated, especially when it comes to the creative industry. It seems more artists in the business, are pulling back from the old fashioned black and white way of thinking. This is a very refreshing sign, especially when artists are starting to express more of who they are through what they love.

It isn’t about the conversations that make an encounter worthwhile, it is about the company you are in that is so appealing. I got to know Nick Burrett through our exclusive interview. Burrett is a fashion photographer in London, born in 1980. A self-taught photographer, who lived in Asia for 5 years, he moved back to the UK and is now based in London. Nick has a fun loving adventurer living deep inside him, who loves coming out in his dynamic work. The leaps he takes through one photograph knows no bounds. What I loved most about his work was he isn’t a typical fashion photographer, shooting models and going about his life. Instead when you take a closer look at his portfolio you almost feel for a second, you are living his work with him.
