>> Tumblr was up to no good for a day and a half and so I had to wait a bit to check out the full range of prettiness that illustrator C√©dric Rivrain, most well known for his work for Maison Michel and his band-aid/plaster portraits, that he has done for Hong Kong boutique Joyce's Laduree store, the first HK Laduree outpost. I didn't get a chance to buy one box for the pure sake of the illustrations but checking them out via Rivrain's Tumblr did give me the advantage of denting this pretty post with…
… well, I guess the following images are pretty self-explanatory really. This is a photo spread for Double Magazine of Rivrain impersonating Carrie Bradshaw, photographed by Andrea Spotorno which is uncannily accurate. Apologies if this is old news for those that have flicked through the issue of Double but I couldn't really justify a post dedicated to JUST some boxes of macaroons. Plus, you've got to love the stylist and Rivrain for referencing Bradshaw circa season 3-4 before it got eye-rollingly far fetched in later seasons as well as the films. I finally watched the second one on a flight which, Virgin's in-house magazine recommended on the basis that it had pure LOL factor. When a throwaway inflight magazine is pushing a film for jokes, it's got to be insanely bad, which it was, but it did kill two hours and a bit hours pretty quickly.
