“Hi Faran,

I came across these hygienic dress league gas masked characters walking around in Shoreditch, UK.

Made my day!

-Michael”

Yes, it’s kind of incredible – and also, um, it’s kind of a blatant revamp of a NYLON fashion spread!  Whoa!

“Hey Faran,

I took this photo a few years ago in Buenos Aires, they have amazing  street art!

Regards from Santiago, Chile

Thank you!  This is very cool.  And since it’s from Buenos Aires, we’re going to gratuitously include this link to Lindsay Pearce singing “Buenos Aires” on Glee. Yep.

tag“Hey Faran, Last year I sent you the Love Doctor from San Francisco Chinatown. I went back this year and they added dragons.”

Perfect post-Game of Thrones timing and almost a year to the day of the last tag you sent us!? It’s fate. Let’s make this annual thing official, okay? Can’t wait to see what you send us for our 3rd anniversary.

tag femme fatale“Hey Faran, I see this every time I go to brunch at Swinger’s in LA. I don’t necessarily believe it but maybe that’s because I haven’t met the girl in the picture yet! –Justin”

Oh, didn’t you know?  I AM the girl in that picture. (No. Not really.)

“Hi Faran!

I am sure this has been sent to you before, but as I was waking though the mission in San Fran last weekend I saw this amazing mural of graffiti and wanted to share my favorite with nylon!

Natalie”

Believe it or not, no – this hasn’t been sent to me before!

(Although we certainly get our fair share of skulls around here…)

“Hello Faran,

I spotted this in Dublin, I loved how it was tucked away down a random street, and how the reflection on the building was so vivid.

As a self-declared ‘graffiti hunter’ I love the Tag! part of the blog!

From, Claire Petersen”

Thank you!

(And I personally love the “SHHH RESPECT” notes all over the top.)

miami“Hey Faran!

I saw your graffiti blog post on Nylon and I have some FABTASTIC photos for you.

I was walking through Wynwood Miami yesterday and was blown away by all the graffiti art! I took a bunch of photos, and attached some of my favorites.

Hope you like them as much as I do!!!

I saw these Leonardo Da Vinci stickers while walking back from brunch in Los Angeles.

I thought they were both hysterical and great-looking, and if the artist is out there reading this blog, send some stickers to our office please!

Tag! Bang Bang Bunny

photoReader  Vanessa Flowers wants to know, “Who shot the bunny?”

We’re guessing whomever did it is somewhere on The Bowery, which is where this mural used to be!

“Dear Faran,

I saw this giraffe on the side of a building in downtown Reykjavik, and it kind of brightened my day!

-Emily”

This is amazing!

But why is the giraffe wearing 3-D glasses?   Wouldn’t it be so trippy if a giraffe’s spots were really in 3-D?  And more questions…
