Set Your Style

A clever take on the tried and tested method of clothes swapping that has been taking place in girls bedrooms ever since they were old enough to trade Barbie clothes, the Visa Swap Shop brings to London the best way of getting designer and chic high street clothes and accessories.
The Visa Swap shop opens at No 1, The Piazza, Covent Garden for buying from 10am to 6pm on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd June 2008. Check out the site for all the following appointments.

I love Etsy! It’s so great to see all these handmade and unique handmade goods online. Nothing on Etsy is mass produced and it’s easy to find an handmade/ultra creative/recycled/sustainable item that you will never find in a big shopping chain. My today’s founds are (from top to bottom): An adorable House Ring made of sterling silver, a Heart Bust Pendant made with a Barbie doll busts encased in a cast sterling silver setting and a funny Steak Ring lovely crafted to adorn both veggie and non-veggie fingers.

Each collection, focused on both a particular region and accessory, is comprised of a small selection of limited edition pieces in specifically style-unique colorways. “a peace treaty’s” 2008 collection focus on uplifting traditional, finely woven/handloomed scarves, stoles and handkerchief pocket squares from the punjab province of southern asia.

Uniqlo teamed up with Sega to produce a limited line of tribute tshirts with characters from Virtua Fighter, Sonic the Hedgehog and The House of the Dead. I really like the old-school-low-polygonal look of the Virtua Fighter line, it reminds me of the huge amount of time and money I must have spent at the video game arcade!

Staches are cool! They usually makes any man look like a porn star or Magnum P.I. but if you are a girl and you really want to grow a mustache, then open your wallet and buy this beautiful hand carved wood mustache! You’ll be the queen-king of every party with this Marie-Antoinettesque mustache-on-a-stick.

I love this Mirror razor with three drops of blood. For the urban cocktail party or the illegal street rave, this chain works everywhere. And while you are browsing the Woven Flesh website check the super cute Sleeping bird pin.

One of the subjects for s/s/08 is Oriental Speed Zombie. Imagine a cool zombie with  very eccentric streetstyle clothes. Mix this with oriental graphics and strange mix of style and colors. Now, you can get such good outfit for being always cool. G-sus.com Belowe some pictures from onlinestore yoox.com

I met Manzi through Myspace and I got interested into his canvasses straight away. They are not some kind of traditional paintings, cause he impresses upon the canvass at 300 dpi whatever you like or you have been creating. I think this is a great new way to bring home some different kind of art. Also, on his site he has got a nice gallery of artworks, like the one above from Veuch.
