Strong Week Links 7

Céline pre-fall 2015 is unsurprisingly great. Vests that turn into ribbons and plunging layered slip dresses, anyone? Plus, excellent brutalist earring work as always.

What do you think about lab-grown leather? 

Excited to see how the Louis Vuitton cruise collection plays out in Bob Hope's mid-century spaceship of a house in Palm Springs.

We saw Steve Earle at the Great American Music Hall on Friday. So good. Guitar Town on repeat.

Before the show, we got cocktails at Holy Mountain, the bar above Oakland restaurant Hawker Fare's new spot in SF. Tim's drink included this liqueur made from an impressive number of herbs, and I'd be curious to try it in make-at-home cocktails.

The coolest bird feeders.

And a perfect summer dress. (Can't beat a dress with pockets.)

Earth Day saw some pretty cool sustainable fashion stories like this one about Reformation introducing RefScale and a 'Low Carb' collection, and this one by fashion writing hero Tim Blanks about Stefano Pilati at Zegna.

An interesting post on this unique LA art installation (if you follow any Angelenos, you may have seen whitewashed palms all over Instagram recently).

This sounds like the coolest modern day musical Smell-O-Vision.

Excited about the imminent opening of new Oakland bar and venue Starline Social Club. We got a sneak peek this weekend and the space (a former Odd Fellows hall dating back to 1893) looks amazing.

An inspiring kitchen before and after to file away.

Finding yet more New Mexspiration in this beautiful photography zine.

Everlane is really keeping the new arrivals coming, and I want almost all of them.
