VOTE: My Looklet Style Entry

Oct30

This is my contest entry for the LOOKLET.COM Lacoste Sneaker Competition. If you're not familiar with Looklet.com, here's a quick brief:

Looklet is a brand new styling studio where you can combine every piece in our fashion collection to mix, match and create your personal looks. All clothes are real, selected by stylists, from real designers.

I personally love looklet, because it helps me re-evalulate my own wardrobe and try out different looks, with different accessories. Even from the tech side, they're contstantly updating and evolving the tool.

FILM: Volver

Oct25

Three generations of women survive the east wind, fire, insanity, superstition and even death by means of goodness, lies and boundless vitality. They are Raimunda (Penelope Cruz), who is married to an unemployed labourer and has a teenage daughter; Sole, her sister, who makes a living as a hairdresser; and the mother of both, who died in a fire along with her husband. This character appears first to her sister and then to Sole, although the people with whom she has some unresolved matters are Raimunda and her neighbor in the village, Agustina.

I just finished watching this, and if you haven't seen it yet, you must. It is a really beautiful film.


MUSIC: Blu

Oct22

Blu recently came to my attention via my old friend C.McD, who hit me up the other day reminding me that this significant artist was missing from the PrimaMag list.

I first heard the sounds of Blu on the 10 Deep "The New Deal" Mixtape, but little did I know this kid had such an old soul sound. On his mixtape "Her Favorite Colo(u)r" he samples of Billie Holiday on the track "Amnesia", which is by far one of my favorite tracks on the mixtape. In 2007 he came out with an album title "Below the Heavens" which is also of high quality.

Oh, and I just discovered this morning that he had a show last night at BLVD on Bowery for a CMJ showcase. Damn, I walked right past this venue last night, and had no idea. Day late, dolla short.


STYLE: Knit Hats for Winter

Oct22
Fall is here and winter is quickly coming.
We all learned early on that keeping your head warm can keep you protected from getting a cold. So these knit hats are working double duty to make you look sexy and safe from the cold.

FILM: We Were Once A Fairytale

Oct22

I don't even know what to say, you just really have to watch the video.

AND. . .be sure to watch it all the way through, because the last minute of it really makes it a Spike Jonze film. Please feel welcome to leave comments, I would, but I'm kinda speechless right now.

 


FILM: New York, I Love You

Oct20

 

I can't wait to see this. The cast alone looks outstanding.

In the city that never sleeps, love is always on the mind. Those passions come to life in NEW YORK, I LOVE YOU – a collaboration of storytelling from some of today’s most imaginative filmmakers and featuring an all-star cast. Together they create a kaleidoscope of the spontaneous, surprising, electrifying human connections that pump the city’s heartbeat. Sexy, funny, haunting and revealing encounters unfold beneath the Manhattan skyline. From Tribeca to Central Park to Brooklyn the story weaves a tale of love as diverse as the very fabric of New York itself.

 


TECH: Heartbeats Headphones UPDATE

Oct20


I got beats. Heartbeats.

Yup, that's right, I got my greedy little hands on a pair of the Moster Heartbeats Headphones Sunday night. (as a gift from DG1). And yes, they are SICK.

 

 


LIFE: Still In Love With NYC

Oct18

While on my way back from lunch Friday, I was fortunate enough to run into the Camera Van. It's really a sight to be seen, and the whole time I kept thinking it was probably really taking pictures of all of us. According to the website, it was intended to take real photos, but I don't know if it actually does or not.
