Now THIS is karaoke or rather CARAOKE!

For #FlashbackFriday, here’s the incredibly sexy, adorable, gorgeous + talented Cara Delevigne doing some Caraoke for LOVE Magazine.  I adore the sweet background, all the cute little emojis flying around + Cara’s whole look.  Just one thing though, why J-LO?  I mean, REALLY?!  That part made me vomit inside my mouth for a hot second, but overall, it’s a pretty sick video!  

Enjoy!

WANTED: Opening Ceremony OC Checkered Sneakers

Inspired by the best parts of Belgian culture including ancient architecture + techno-pop records, the Classic OC silhouettes sloping shoe returns as part of Opening Ceremony’s Pre-Fall collection.  With it’s mirror ball black checkered pattern effect on white leather + black laces, sitting on top of a white rubber bottom, this shoe is sure to bring out that little extra from any look it’s paired with, be it patterns, texture or pops of color.  Now most might think ‘how stupid’ to state the obvious in saying they would look excellent paired with an all black look, but because of the shoe’s shape + pattern, would make this pairing unique, after all.

To cop your very own pair, go to OPENING CEREMONY.

Get lost in the alternate reality of fashion film ‘That Paradise Would Be A Meme’ by Stef Van Looveren for #ThrowbackThursday.  Showcasing male fashions by BENJI WZW, you can’t help but smile over the juxtaposition between the patterns, cuts + contemporary silhouettes of the clothes with that of the film’s virtual environment made up of lines, geometric shapes + wooden boards.  

This film definitely reminds me of that design esthetic shared by many music videos from the Eighties, don’t you think?

Enjoy!

Introducing Fine Line Jewelry Collection

image

There’s nothing I love more than a great line.  Rigid + exact, a line, simply never disappoints + always makes a statement, no matter how light.  Well that’s exactly what Polish jewelry designer Agata Bielen has created with her ‘Fine Line’ jewelry collection.

image

Handcrafted, each piece appears as just a speck of metal on the wearer but oh so delicately + beautifully.  This ‘Fine Line’ collection is a return to the first inspiration, the original point of departure – a straight line.

Once abandoned a while ago, an ultra-thin steel wire is back in favor with Bielen, the perfect medium for such a collection.  Two-dimensional geometry is raised into space while the line breaks in several angles creating three-dimensional forms.
image
The result – a small sculpture-like cubical pieces made of movable tubes that adapt to the body form.  Forms are lightweight, cubical + subtle. Despite the clear sharp geometric shapes, all the pieces comfortable + functional.  The bracelet on the right, in pic 1, is just plain sick!
The ‘Fine Line’ jewelry collection is available for purchase here.

Now THIS Is How To Get Plugged With BLESS M Special Extension Cord

image

Tell me this extension cord is not sick + just in time for back-to-school too?!

With so many electronic devices plugged under your desk at work or at home, it usually ends up looking like a cluster fvck of black, grey + white wires.  Sometimes, you might attempt on getting creative + try to find a colorful surge protector, but even that option is limited.

Enter the genius that is the BLESS M Special Extension Cord.  True, it’s nothing but a surge protector however, unlike many others of its kind, what sets this one apart from all the rest are the tightly coiled multi-colored wires encasing the extension cord. Yet truth be told, several DIYers out there could probably recreate this for half the cost but for instant gratification, cop yours at HONEYEE.
