Wear Your Music

October 17th, 2008

Music_necklaces.jpgNot to date ourselves or anything, but we really like this necklace of a cassette, made out of recycled records. You can also get a 45 rpm disc — remember those? Be green and retro, all at the same time. Matching earrings available as well but that might be a bit much. From Uncommon Goods.

Fuzz Crime Scene Scarf

October 2nd, 2008

FUZZ.jpgTalk about crimes against fashion. But seriously, this could come in handy in a dangerous neighborhood.
This Fuzz Crime Scene scarf is acrylic and is almost 5 feet long. No charge for the looks you’ll get. From those crazy kids at Perpetual Kid.

Victor Osborne Chapeaus

August 6th, 2008

victorosborne.jpgSome of our favorite trends right now are those that rekindle a bygone era. Victor Osbourne chapeaus (created by Victor Osborne and Zachary Barnett) take their inspiration from traditional headwear and the decidedly streetwise vibe that pervades New York City. The result? A uniquely vintage-cool sensibility. Visit the duo’s open storefront in Brooklyn for fierce fedoras to set you apart from the crowds.

“Scentsual” Prowess

August 5th, 2008

lhomme_jean_nouvel.jpgDrakkar and Eternity aren’t exactly fragrances you want to proudly display on your bathroom counter. Instead, reach for French architect Jean Nouvel’s bottle for L’Homme Yves Saint Laurent. The silhouette calls to mind, among other things, a laboratory test tube, which is fitting for a men’s fragrance that connotes pure physical chemistry with hints of bergamot, ginger and vetiver. A YSL monogram floats inside, putting the brand at the heart of the fragrance.
