Weekend Links

Here are the links for this weekend, they're a mix of art, fashion, food and literature and a little in between. I hope you have a good weekend. I'm off to work on an artist profile + interview that will be posted some time tomorrow. Enjoy wherever you are and check out this cafe in Aix-en-Provence, called Les Deux Garçons where Picasso, Cezanne, Camus and Zola used to frequent. And yes, the coffee was perfect... as always in France.
