Tobi is having a huge sale!

What better way to spend your paycheck than to get 25% anything you buy from the Tobi website. They have everything, I mean EVERYTHING, on sale.
Check it out here!

John Fluevog

Whilst window shopping around town yesterday, I stumbled upon a danty pair of shoes at Creatures Boutique, located on South Congress. Upon exploring the website today, I fell in love, with both the shoes and the company's quirky business statement:

Moses used tablets, Picasso used paints, God used Moses, Alex G Bell used the telephone and John Fluevog uses shoes.


Quite a bold statement to make! But you can't argue with a shoe company who offer their best selling styles for the Vegan market as well, and have resoleing options when you "wear" through them.

Check out more on this brand on the websies!

Goorin Bros. Fedora on 80s Purple:



Gisele Ganne

Love these pieces by Gisele Ganne, from her Black Widow collection.

This shoe company speaks mega comfort and simplicity. I believe it would be befitting to say men should make these the mocassins of the fall season. Buy some...or envy.




Nudie Denim

It's about time that I quit restraining myself and proclaim to the world that I am in love...with Nudie Jeans, and have proudly been for many years. If you ever asked for a recommendation on denim, then you have heard me preach and boast and sigh. Nudie Jean Co., can I date you? Or stalk you? I could go on all day...but basically, I just wanted to recommend these babies below:

Swear Buy It!

Perhaps it's a little too early in the morning to be executing so much wordplay. Swear is a London-based shoe company that has been around since 2001, and I have to say I am totally blown away by their collection. Check them out for yourself!




Trend: Oversized Hoods

I'm positive you will start to see more and more oversized hood/cowl neck action as it gets closer to fall. Embrace it....because it's ridiculously awesome.

Not a Music Blog...

If you know me, then chances are you can name my two greatest addictions--Swedish denim and Pharrell Williams. Seeing Sounds comes out today, so in stalkeresque dedication, here are a few things to add Skateboard P swagger to your closet:

Way Shiner Shades by Lanvin

Ace of Spades Tee by BBC


Croc Birkin Tote by Hermes

Wazenbi: The Winkle Specialist

Last night my roomie and I were scouring Ebay for a great steals on vintage shoes. While we didn't find too many prospects, I did stumble upon these great winklepickers by Wazenbi:



There is not a lot of information about this brand on the interwebs, but here are the links to both the Ebay store and the Wazenbi blog, where you can order a pair of your very own.

Totes!


The summertime always brings out my inner bag-lady. You wouldn't believe how many wonderful goodies I manage to squeeze into my handbag of choice....money, magazines, make-up, 40s...

Shiny Cloth Duffel Bag by American Apparel

Justin Holdall Tote by Mulberry

Oh...DEER! South Beach Sandal, available here.


Serious Hardware Pt 4

What fun is jewelry if it isn't any fun! Eh, I'll admit that joke was a little cheeseball, but check out Tarina Tarantino's collection of fun lucite.












Serious Hardware Pt 3

Today's pick is CC Skye. Gotta love that mesh gold!











Serious Hardware Pt 2

Steven Shein does some fancy woodwork! His chains and bangles have been getting a lot of recognition lately. Seriously, who can resist robots, bats, fangs, or dirty words! Check out more of his collection here.








Serious Hardware Pt 1


This week is going to be all about the bling, so get ready! Part 1 of this series of posts focuses on Cubannie Links, handmade by Miami native Annie Basulto. While most items are sold out on her website, you can pick up some of these babies at KarmaLoop.




M.I.A. Clothing Line

Word about town is that M.I.A. will be releasing her own line of clothing sometime this summerish...maybe? No one knows for sure where or when her goodies will be up for grabs. But she did have this to say about it:

With my stuff, because everything’s really bright, if you lose it or someone steals it, you can see it from miles away and you can be like, ‘Oy! Give me my shirt back!’
Oy! I can't wait!

Trend: Paperbag Skirts

Whether you shell out the cash to get one new, or pop by your local thrift store, this is a Spring/Summer 2K8 must-have.

Q is for Quail

Michelle Nguyen is a girl after my own heart. Starting her label at a mere 23 years old, she pulls inspiration for her designs from 40s and 50s starlets and pin-up girls. Here are some of the greats from her newest collection. More about Quail can be found here.

Cero Design Wooden Cuffs

woodgrain bling=ammmaaaZING!

Dope!



Ksubi has a knack for taking what's already blowing up the style circuit and making it incredibly, ridiculously awesome. These babies are available at Oak NYC, and with only 50 pairs in each color...there is no excuse not to cop 'em!

Boys: Embrace, Own...

Okay...I Give

Not that I'm a hater for good causes, but I couldn't really get into TOMS shoes...until now, that is. Add a little gold and glitter to it, and I'll wear anything....

P.S. I originally found these on Zappos for $68 but they are significantly less on Tobi's website. You're welcome!

Shades Ain't Just Fo Yo Face No Mo


Chronicles of Never

I'm a sucker for simplicity...and cowl necks for that matter, so it was no surprise to me how much I fell in love with Chronicles of Never. Who can resist classic style with a touch of hilarity? The company has been around since 2006, pulling its influences from geometrical shapes, rustic metals, and in the words of label creator, Gareth Moody, compressed robot limbs.

Kiss Your Nikes Goodbye

This weekend I had the opportunity to stumble upon two amazing new brands that are apparently making waves in Europe. Schmoove and Sneaky Steve will surely add some spice and cred to your sneaker collection. Trust me.

Masters of Disguise


Karen Walker's new shade collection is so boss. My advice? Drop the Ray-Bans and pop on a pair of these fly prettys.


Blingin Sandals Pt 1



Because Shorts Should Never Be Boring



Jeffrey Campbell Patridge Family Slingbacks

Come on get happy.....

Stolen Girlfriends Club

New Zealand street style, oversized shirts, catchy wordplay, and krunktastic jewelry all together under one label...need i say more? Stolen Girlfriends Club is making major headway in the fashion scene, and who can help but fall in love with a label who named one of their collections "Elegantly Wasted." Those Kiwis might just steal my heart...and my bank account.


Romper Madness











Glamrock at its Finest

Whoa to the whizzle....heralding from the minds of two east London designers, Belle Sauvagen is churning style that's out of this world. As said in their words, design duo Virginia Ferreira and Christian Neuman describe their line as "wearable art...inspired by iconic film and music."  Mmmhhhmmm...paging Ziggy Stardust?






I Scream...


Be Square

For those of you who think brass knuckles are overplayed:


An Insight into Insight51

Don't let them fool you, Insight51 is not your average skater-clothing/multi-project label. The women's 2008 collection is so bomb i want to set it off, or at least make really cheeseball comments that make me feel like Kool Moe Dee. Oh, and, need I mention Ray-Bans are a must?







Betsey Johnson Marilyn Cardigan


Hellz Bellz is the Shiz

One of my favorite things about my last trip to Manhattan was the discovery of Hellz Bellz. The label has been around since 2005, and is definitely making a statement with each piece that debuts. Check out some of the pics from the Spring 2008 line:
