Doggienough
My fascination with tees never ends. Thankfully it was light on my wallet this time round. Had to get the GoodenoughUK tee after seeing it in mags a long way back (disadvantages of a good memory huh?) I like dogs, especially irrepressible cute ones. Heck, who doesn't love cute dogs? Forgive my babble.

Anyways, if Must Love Dogs is still showing someplace near you, go catch it.

Not much of a dog movie as it is a date movie, but i do find it a light-hearted flick to catch. Its great for melancholy days and when you're thinking of someone. And i absolutely find Diane Lane adoring. Illuminating.

I always admire folks who take their interests seriously, pursuing perfection and beauty over time. They need our appreciation in due return.

the Brick Testament
Brendan Powell Smith does a painstaking and awesome job creating stories and gospels from the Bible using Lego bricks. Take some time to go through them and tell him how cool it really is. After which, go shopping =)

Shadow Percussion Project by Brian Undelhofen.
DJ Shadow's music rocks, but Brian's "re-arrangement" takes it to a whole new level of enjoyment. Go download the video and tell all your friends! Props!

Also managed to snag a Bape graduation tee, unworn and with tags no less! Props to Scott for the lovelies.

Good things come in small packages

sighs...yet another reason for an empty wallet. Apple pulls a fast one, hiding the Nano behind the big hoo-ha of the Motorola iTunes phone. Why the secrecy? Not least coz its suppose to replace mini, the pre-launch hype would have caused iPod mini sales to a standstill. Good move i say. And it comes in black, nothing says "buy me" like a black iPod. Go to your local dealer or click here for more info

Charlize Theron at the beach with her dog



Pop quiz hotshot: how many noticed she's wearing a Nom De Guerre tee?

Ha, laters!

I love that skatedeck by Stash..."old New York".
I'm also pretty impressed and stoked by the designs of OUaTiNY - Once Upon a time in New York. the folks are inspired by skate, hip hop, and stories from the "olde" city.

Visit the site, and leave them a mail if you're interested to buy...if you're nice enough, they might just send to your corner of the world.
My fave is the "club twenty7", i'll leave that to u guys to figure out the reason behind the design. But i know my buddy Ibrahim will love the Maradona tee ;)

Junya Watanabe "Man" for Comme des Garcons x Nike

sometimes i wonder a designer's thinking process....it looks like a knockoff sweater to me.
Garcons Homme "Rolling Stones" motif

This is more like it, but the "Stones" icon has been used eons ago, and probably done better by number(n)ine...

Michael Paulus is a genius. Peep his character study of popular comic characters given an x-ray twist. Ever wondered what they would really look like inside their anatomically incorrect bodies? Sick? yeah, as in cool-sick...siiick
