IMG 0800 GASD   Met Her On Thursday

Much like watching an indie film at Cannes or Sundance, this picturesque dream-like sequence of images brings you into the moment; their moment. An overwhelming feeling of love met, love chased, and love missed leaves a permanent imprint in one’s mind. Grainy images of still life and characters of anonymity fused with an ambient soundtrack slideshow to tell a story.

The quality frame manufacture Super and Barneys Co-Op New York features part two in their collab. The frames are designed with intertwining metallic streaks combined with a Zeiss Gold 24k lens and of course is based on the Super Ciccio Style. The product is limited to 50 pieces and is available only at Barneys CO-OP in New York. I’m really feeling the aesthetic marriage between the original tortoise shell look and wood-grain. Peep part one of the co-op here.

Opening Ceremony x Pendelton

pendleton Opening Ceremony x Pendelton

Everyone is talking about the brilliant collab between Opening Ceremony and Pendleton. I mean how could this combination go wrong, one of the best stores in the US and one of the staples of American dress. For their 100th anniversary Pendleton worked with Opening Ceremony to create a full collection, including bags of mouthwatering designs. But the punchline here is not the collab, as you probably all know about it, but rather the fact that it is already in store at the La Cienega shop. Everyone is saying the collection is suppose to hit in August, but my little secret can set you ahead of the herd. I cant promise the whole collection is there but there are defintly some pieces including the raddest leather and flannel bags.

MUJI x AIAIAI
The AIAIAI contribution was a special edition version of the “Y-Com” earphones. In the spirit of, and focusing on the simplicity of the MUJI design, AIAIAI chose to stripe down the usual colorfulness to a basic white model, however with a added and understated mix of AIAIAI in the spectrum of colors on the plugs.

Speaking of edible Nikes,

Swiss foodie blogger, Sooishi, collaborated for the Nike Switzerland Air event with +41. She set out some very precise lil’ Nike-inspired snacks. Mega-creativity and execution on this girl’s part, I can’t imagine piping those petit cheese doodles into perfect swooshes.

P.S. Its amazing how much French your mind digs up when reading her blog, perhaps it’s the beautiful pics  as seen on Flickr.

Torafu in Japan

Tags: , , , ,

As a kid, I always had a hard time describing where I lived to friends. Our cul-de-sac didn’t have much of a recognizable landmark. The following structure designed by the Japanese duo Torafu has no problem with the recognition factor. This unique one story structure located in Yokohama, Japan resembles that of a chip off the Fortress of Solitude. The concrete structure’s interior bears the look of a gallery with flat white walls throughout the house. The roof lighting system pulls the airy tall ceilings and flat white walls together and fills the cabin with calming natural light.
