Heather Martin , the designer behind Mono Clothing, a growing design label based out of Vancouver,  was recently interviewed by Hearty Magazine.The talented designer talks about  launching gher line, inspirations  experiences and and much more. This quote made it for me: “I like simplicity,” Heather confirms. “Style is more important than actual clothing. The way someone puts something together is way more interesting than the item itself. Clothing, for me, is quite functional. It has to be comfortable and unique.”Check out the image filled feature here.

The king of street photography who has inspired a kabillion copiers will be the one with the lens focused on him in “Bill Cunningham New York,” a film by Richard Press. In an excerpt from the film’s website:

“Bill has lived in the same small studio above Carnegie Hall for fifty years, never eats in restaurants and gets around on a worn-out bicycle– his sole means of transportation. The contradiction of his monk-like existence and the extravagance of his photographic subject matter is one aspect of his private life revealed in the movie.”

The one catch is that for now, it’s only available for those who are in New York either March 24th or 25th for the three screenings. Wouldn’t be surprised if they all sell out.

Kid Sister performed at the SXSW festival recently, and since the last time we spotted her, her hair has grown out quite a bit to the point where she’s sporting an ultra-fashionable, side braid. And while her locks may have changed, her mani is still super tight. She also has a couple of new videos out. Check out this one called “Daydreaming.” It’s the second single off of her finally dropped debut album called Ultraviolet.

Rapper Uffie performed at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, a few days back. I had no idea until I read this article that she had a baby this past October (at the same link you’ll find a video of her performance). Perhaps we will hear more from her this year as she has an album set for release at the end of May.
