British artist Ian Barry a.k.a. “Denimu” has abandoned all mediums except denim, which he’s been collecting and repurposing into stunning, detailed portraits and landscapes. What was his “ah ha” moment?
“I found myself staring at them, mourning the old pants from my youth,” Denimu states on his website. “I was transfixed by the ripped, faded beauty of the fabric. How the different blues contrasted against each other in a sea of shades. I couldn’t part with them; they were part of who I was then. And who I am now. I remember it was a time in my life when I was looking for a voice when I suddenly realised that what I had been looking for had been there all along.”
Wonder if he knows Marilyn was a fan of the denim on denim …

We’re so used to seeing her man, Justin Bieber, rocking the double denim that we were super psyched to see Selena Gomez in a Canadian Tuxedo while shooting Feed the Dog in Los Angeles.

One my fave sites on earth, Refinery29, has put out its list of the “Top 5 Denim Trends You Need For Fall.” Of course the suggestions are amazing. I’m kind of obsessing over these polkadot denim skinnies from Paige denim – takes me back to Bexley Junior High, showing up to school in the same polkadot Guess jeans as my then-enemy (now dear friend) Jill Cameron. Kids.

It’s been a while since we’ve posted about a baby draped in denim. Rachel S. just set us this picture of her adorable baby boy, Griffin, in a denim romper from the Gap. With stylish parents like his, we’re sure this isn’t the first of many dope ass Canadian Tuxedos we see on this kid. Watch out baby Egypt: Griffin is going to give you a run for the money in Hollywood.
