Something To Read: Tuesday Peace by Marie Mamonia
I guess it’s only fitting to post a poem titled Tuesday Peace on a Tuesday. The piece is written by Marie Mamonia, the lovely and talented Danish poet, who released her latest collection of written prose, making references to things that intertwine in quiet relevancy to our daily life; laundro-mats, newspaper headlines, coffee, Manhattan Ave. Selected Poems [...]
Old Bags New Beasts
What is to be said of the unremitting reintroduction of the Louis Vuitton monogram bag over the years? Overplayed? Over-branded? Over your price range? Perhaps it’s a resounding yes to all of the above (we get it Kim Kardashian!), but from the death that lies buried in the old checkered canvas baggage comes forth a new [...]
Emoji Makeup by Peter Philips for V Magazine
I am addicted to emojis, and who isn’t? A tiny picture conveys so much more meaning than words can. But even more than that, anything and everything from Asia just makes me happy. So you can imagine my reaction when I saw this story. Makeup artist Peter Philips seems to think so too, as he’s [...]
Visionaire 63 Forever is Made of Metal
With punk on everyone’s lips these days, the ever innovative team behind Visionaire decided to be different — as always — and turn their attention to a forgotten yet precious alloy: metal. Their latest issue, 63, is the first ever magazine made of the shiny silver stuff. Visionaires’ founder Cecelia Dean and the team wanted to [...]

New Kids on the Block: the Seven 2013 ANDAM Finalists
ANDAM’s recent announcement of this year’s Grand Prix designer finalists for the 2013 competition (France’s equivailent to the CFDA) has raised (and squinted) eyes, giving a sneak and envious preview into couture’s cool kids table for next season. Curated from cool kid judges in their own right (including Emmanualle Alt, Humbero Leon and Nicole Phelps), the seven finalists [...]
The Daily Meow – The Private Life of a Cat (Video)
Toward the end of their marriage, filmmakers Maya Deren and Alexander Hammid collaborated on the remarkable short THE PRIVATE LIFE OF A CAT. As the film’s furry protagonists, identified only as “She” and “He,” gave birth to a litter of kittens (a process recorded in the film in full though without sound), Deren and Hammid [...]
Mix of the Day: Banks – Warm Water
Banks is a budding young LA pop star and is sending her warmest, most engaging track yet straight to our ear buds. “Warm Water,” a romantic summer night love song, features the singer’s soulful, starry-eyed come-ons drifting along a balmy, subtly enveloping beat from UK producer Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. “Warm Water” is out May 27 on London’s Good [...]
Kendrick Lamar – Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe (Official Video)
In our visual generation, a song truly comes to life when we can see it on youtube. Kendrick Lamar releases his video for Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe that fittingly starts in a church — that’s where sinners go, right? — then traverses to the green hills of what could possibly be heaven, also known [...]
Monday Inspiration: Watch An Astronaut Perform “Space Oddity”…In Space
This is simply astounding. While Daft Punk may have simulated going to space this weekend, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield already resides there. He has already attracted a huge share of online attention for sharing his experiences as commander of the ISS International Space Station on Reddit and Facebook. And now he’s accomplished something rock history [...]
Daniel Silverstain x MUUSE Special Edition RTW Collection
We last posted about Daniel Silverstain‘s Pantherbone collection and also featured him on Hall of Style. Daniel is clearly someone the fashion community believes in; BryanBoy, Vogue and Elle have all written about him, and MUUSE believes in him too — so much so, that they have invited him to be one of the MUUSE 100, a showcase [...]
BALMUNG’s “Tokyo Trash Utopia”
“I take trash and turn it into treasure,” ends the speech that an impassioned Alaska Thunderfuck 5000 delivered just after lip syncing for her life two weeks ago on Ru Paul’s Drag Race finale. And while perhaps not successful on her own path—earning half of the title of runner-up—the sentiment proves equally resilient (albiet not as glamorous) [...]
Daft Punk’s Intergalactic Album Tease
This weekend, Daft Punk played in outer space — literally. For the grand, painfully intense unveiling of Random Access Memories — their comeback album that will, in fact, actually be available to purchase and enjoy on Earth next week — the pioneering French dance duo took a rocket ship for a spin and loaded up [...]

Suave Like Sauvé – Sebastian Sauvé
We picked a model’s brain to see if there was anything in there and it turns out that Sebastian Sauvé (Premier London) is more than just a pretty boy. Even if he is the ultimate model-photographer cliche. I mean when you look like this, you have to ride the wave, any which way it goes. [...] >>
The BLVCK SCVLE Theory
A tinge of Soho, a pinch of Fifth Ave, a linger of Rodeo Drive. This physically describes Black Scale NYC, a just-down-the-road yet out of the way menswear destination. On a slate grey cobblestone street in the city that never sleeps, a sliding door entrance opens to a polished all-black-everything ‘man cave’ if you will. [...] >>
Ink Philosophy: Jun Cha
23-year-old L.A. tattoo artist Jun Cha is an amalgam of all things creative. He’s an illustrator, a painter, a photographer, a fashion designer having memorable collaborations with brands like Black Scale and The Hundreds under his belt, and more. It takes skill, time and patience to dip your toes in everything, but most importantly, discipline. [...] >>
Jay Strut
It’s not about who you know. It’s about knowing who you are. And strutting your stuff. That’s kind of what I’ve gathered from Jay Strut, a Toronto-based fashion blogger. We’re still getting used to this term and it’s definition, much to the annoyance of established fashion journalists and editors, who work to keep fashions’ gates [...] >>
Honest to Goodness Mr. Dougie
Honest Ed’s is synonymous with ‘landmark’ for most Toronto residents. They know it’s the spot for the best deals on cheap products, for nearly every facet of your life. Located on Bloor and Bathurst Sts, in the safe, culturally vibrant Annex neighbourhood, the one-of-a-kind retail space lights up like a 1940′s Hollywood movie trailer. Oozing [...] >>
Jason Ierace – Gun For Hire
Finding cool stuff online is like making rapid fire but unrelated connections in your brain – one second you’re thinking about puppies and the next you’re contemplating life on Mars. How does it happen? Random. But interesting. Stream of conscious. Starting out with lord only knows what at this point, I skipped across photographer Jason [...] >>
