THE COLOR OF FALL: OXBLOOD RED
Ever since the very first models took to the runway for Fall Fashion Week, it was quite clear that oxblood red would be the color of the season. A little bit dark and a lot bit sultry, this hue gives that subtle edge to your wardrobe and can be styled with nearly any color. Whether you're looking to do a head to toe look or just accessorize with a crimson colored accessory, we've got a piece to help you bring in the fall season with style.

Heat large cast iron skillet. Cut corn off of the cob, coat onions and corn in olive oil and place in skillet. Grill until slightly charred. Take off heat and place in a large bowl. Sprinkle shrimp with paprika and grill until cooked thoroughly in the same skillet, about 4 to 6 minutes. Add the shrimp to the large bowl. Brush bread with olive oil and grill evenly on both sides.
In the meantime, season the shrimp, corn and onions with salt and pepper. Add greens to the large bowl and then toss all ingredients with dressing. Once bread is done grilling, place avocado and shrimp salad on top.
PINEAPPLE + MINT JULEP
(single serving)
2 oz Bulleit bourbon
3 slices of pineapple
3 mint leaves
Combine all ingredients into a cocktail shaker. Muddle two slices of pineapple and all of the mint to release flavors and then add a few ice cubes. Shake vigorously until the outside of the shaker is cold. Strain into a tumbler and add one large ice cube (I love the Tovolo King Cube trays). Stir the cocktail swiftly a few more times to make extra cold. Garnish with a pineapple wedge and enjoy!

"FLOATING" INVISIBLE BICYCLE PHOTOS BY ZHAO HUASEN
Artist Zhao Huasen created a cool collection of images, entitled ‘Floating’ where bicyclists pedal through city streets on invisible bikes. For the project, Huasen captured hundreds of cyclists going about their every day lives and then digitally removed the bicycles from the images. The seats and shadows remain intact offering a humorous take on a common scene.
