Christian Schoeler for Louis Vuitton

At the Louis Vuitton fashion show in Paris, the high-end brand displayed their latest collection of bags designed by young German artist Christian Schoeler and Louis Vuitton menswear designer Paul Helbers. The hand-painted bags were the highlight of the collection, featuring 19th century paintings on three different bag types — a square rucksac and two large weekender-style bags. The designs represents paint stains as Shoeler stated: “All artists’ clothes are covered in stains, like an accidental customization”, he continued, “My life is about creativity and that applies to art, but also to fashion.”

Hellz Bellz x Vans

This February, Vans and Hellz come together to release 2 limited edition styles: The Hadley and The Sophie. Both shoes are a reflection of my personal style: “tomboy chic” and “edgy femme”.

The Hadley is inspired by my love of vintage motorcycle boots with zippers and metal lace eye hooks detailing the black leather high top, whereas the Sophie is an updated saddle shoe that’s been stripped down and built from the ground up with Hellz’s unique design aesthetic: Die cuts, metallic color blocking and buckle strap details.

The shoes retail for:

$85.00 for the Hadley
$65.00 for the Sophie

And will be available at the following retailers:

Karmaloop (both styles)
Wish Atlanta (both styles)
Kicks/Hi (both styles)
Undefeated (Hadley Zipper only)
Conveyor (Hadley Zipper Only)

-- sidenote, the video is DOPE!

IMKING x N4E1 “ Four Eyes”

IM King is knocking out yet another collaboration this seson.
– the IMKING x N4E1 “ Four Eyes”.
It is only natural to design some facewear that can be worn all day. The concept of the design
is to create a frame that is versatile, yet caters specifically to the person wearing them
– shape, size, and overall style aesthetic were all equally considered.
“The collaboration between N4E1 and IMKing is fresh, because the two brands cater to a
completely different group of consumers. N4E1 is more a grown up look, meanwhile IMKING
is aimed towards the fun crowd,” said N4E1 Director of Operations, Stephen Lee. “Put
both together and you get utter sophistication.”
As trends come and go, Stephen(N4E1) & Andy(IMKING) recognizes the classic factor of
these frames and was inspired to conjure up what would be an accessory that can stand the
test of time. The frames made of a faux wood-grain texture, stained in a deep brown-black hue, and silver-
embossed with the N4E1 and IK signature logos on both opposite arms are nestled in a
chic matte-black box and also includes an imprinted lens cleaner. They drop next Friday at www.IMKING.com and selected retailers.

Lady Gaga Barbie Dolls

"Barbies were a standard in our toy chests growing up, but to be honest, all her so-called "fashion" outfits tended to put us to sleep. Not anymore! Veik, a 29-year-old doll "player" from Beijing, has been giving ol' Barb some pizazz, styling them after some of Lady Gaga's most memorable outfits. And these aren't your average grade-school DIYs, either, because Veik has all the details—from Alexander McQueen lobster claw shoes to her changing hairstyles—down pat."

my final words, this has gone to far! LOL

Miss Wax FALL/WINTER 2009

“In a time when media revolutionized society & America began its path towards heavy consumerism, a concept was born called retro-futurism. Depicted mostly in the 1920’s & 60’s, this was a total vision of the future seen through the eyes of the past. A Utopian culture defined by high technology & space travel. This collection bridges the marvel of this modern ideology with social issues of today, creating a jewelry collection like no other.” -Miss Wax
