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 [...]

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 [...]

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”

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) [...]

Terry Richardson’s Hand Job for Valentino

Terry Richardson’s Hand Job for Valentino

Move over George Costanza, there’s a new hand model in town and his name is Terry Richardson. That apparently is the photographer’s tattooed arm, dangling the Rockstud Rouge and Rockstud Noir studded heels and handbags from Valentino’s Fall/Winter 2013-14 accessories collection. Not sure how this sells, but it has our attention. It’s also kind of like Terry [...]

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

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. [...] >>

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 [...] >>

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.
