  • Kehinde Wiley x Puma...
    Monday, November 30, 2009 13:39



    In anticipation for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Puma have teamed up with New York based painter, Kehinde Wiley, to create a limited edition version of the V1.10 soccer boot.
    Kehinde Wiley has gained worldwide acclaim for his unique style, in which he portrays African Americans in traditional poses placed upon boldly colored backgrounds.







    Wiley has an ability to blend traditional and contemporary painting styles that is unparalleled. His work has been described with words like, 'intensity' and 'passion', two words also synonymous with soccer players and their fans. Wiley has worked with Puma on a successful collection in the recent past, so it only seemed natural for Puma to call upon him again for this special edition boot.

    Collette is coming to Town...
    Wednesday, November 25, 2009 21:17
    Yes, the cool boutique is opening a pop-up in East London at the Old Truman Brewery from November 26 - January 3!




    Before you get too excited, there is a catch. You can't just show up and shop at said pop-up holiday store.
    To purchase a Colette-edited gift you need to get on the guest list by either applying online—which according to British Vogue is not as easy as it sounds—or tracking down store sponsored Nissan Cube cars cruising through London and asking the driver for an invite.



    Those lucky enough to enter the store will find a number of Japanese inspired lifestyle products for sale (including the Nissan Cube car), live music, fashion presentations, and art installations.

    Friday, November 13, 2009 14:28

    It's the eve of the Jimmy Choo and H&M's collaboration, everybody's talking about it and discussing whether or not its worth risking their life to attend. I still haven't decided if I wanted to spend my day off fighting for the last thigh high boots in my size or even better waiting for a few hours in the rain.

    Ben Turnbull 'Doesn't Like Mondays'...
    13:54


    For those of you familiar with the work of British artist, Ben Turnbull you'll know he is never one to shy away from portraying the unsettling truths of American dominance in global culture. Most of his art takes a satrical look at the length that political elites will go to in order to control and manipulate the way we think, from our first days of play to the last time we cast our vote.




    For his fifth London solo show, 'I Don't Like Mondays' artist Ben Turnbull whittled symbols of violence into school desks. This series explores a childhood fascination with violence.

    Force fed on violence, abused by a controlling superpower and blackmailed through patriotism, the public are ultimately as disposable as the toys they once played with. Ben Turnbull













    To see more of his work head down to the Eleven Gallery.

    15:09


    Legendary French female street artist, Fafi has teamed up with Adidas Originals to create a limited edition collection of ladies footwear and clothing. Fafi is best known for her canvas work and handpainted graffiti.
    The women’s collection features a total of five different models. The predominately white bases of the Superskate, Honey Low, Honey Mid and Stan Smith Velcro are joined by the lone black colorway of The Sneeker.
    Its been a while since I've been excited about footwear that didn't include a killer heel, but the Superskate definately belongs in my wardrobe!
