Sleep + Tight

Like sleeping in small enclosed spaces? Same.
 How crazy is the one below? Radical.

Sew + Hot

Meet the next generation of bobby pin: Hair Thread. 
Australian hair guru Kevin Murphy has come out with a line of hair thread- instead of fussing with clips and pins, you simply thread your hair into the desired look. At the end of the night, snip and pull out the thread to undo. 
I'm intrigued.






Also check out his line for temporary hair color: Color Bug.

Cut + Out

This dress by French label Carven is adorable. I love me some good upper ribcage display.
And that textile. mmm.

 As seen on The Man Repeller.


EAT + LEARN + MOVE

Need some inspiration to get off your butt this summer? These should just about do it (if you havn't already seen them):


3 GUYS, 44 DAYS, 11 COUNTRIES, 18 FLIGHTS, 38 THOUSAND MILES,
 AN EXPLODING VOLCANO, 
2 CAMERAS AND ALMOST A TERABYTE OF FOOTAGE…
ALL TO TURN 3 AMBITIOUS LINEAR CONCEPTS BASED ON
MOVEMENT, LEARNING AND FOOD ….
INTO 3 BEAUTIFUL AND HOPEFULLY COMPELLING SHORT FILMS…..
= A TRIP OF A LIFETIME.

Three short films by Rick Mereki, Tim White and Andrew Lees.
Also hi Rick Mereki, please marry me. kthanxbai.





It's kind of like Eat Pray Love but a lot less whinny and self-sympathizing.

Spotted at Cup of Jo.


Rap + Explained

"Stu Jeffries, with the help of some talented kids, shows everyone what 'rap' is."
(circa 1987)



Ah, Canadians.

Lennon + Maisy

This cover of Robyn/Erato's "Call Your Girlfriend"is not only precious but also superb.



Spotted by Selina.

Thu + Thu

Currently lusting after the label THU THU by designer Thuy Duong Nyguyen. Vietnamese-born, she has since moved to Germany and influences from both places can be strongly noted in her work. Apparently I have a weakness for handcrafted embroideries (see Free People Parka).






 
This jacket is to DIE for.
