Style Muse: Karen Gillan





*Photos via Google Images*


For those of you who aren't nerds like me, Karen Gillan plays the adorable and fiesty sidekick Amy Pond on the recent seasons of Doctor Who. She has the best easy-breezy, windblown red hair I've maybe ever seen. I also love the way she's unafraid of pairing bright colors and busy prints with neutrals. And I like how she's a fan of nonfussy shoes, too. Her overall look always feels very... modern-comfy.


Geeky Doctor Who Trivia: The role of young Amy Pond is actually played by Karen's real-life cousin.

Extraordinary Rainbowy Thread Art

Take a peek at Dominique Falla's creation, made from nails & thread:





"For too long, people have viewed themselves as separate and I wanted to represent a multitude of individuals using the nails, and then coloured string to show how we are all interconnected, and that together, we can make something beautiful."


Amazing, right?
