These lamps called ‘Embarakiya’, are part of a series by Al-Hamad Design. The terrifying human-sized lamps are dressed in traditional Kuwaiti garb and have speakers built into them. If this doesn’t scare the crap out of you, I don’t know what will. This is every woman’s worst nightmare. To wake …

I don’t even know what to say. Viv, I love your clothes when I go into your stores, but DANG! your runway shows are always a mess! So, weird. I thing it’s because she piles everything on. Maybe she doesn’t have enough models or too many clothes? I dunno. …

Only in Japan is there a store dedicated to all things wicker – Tokyo Wani Department Store. It sounds like a Floridian retirement home times ten. Anywho, I went on their website and everything was in Japanese, so I’ll make up stuff like usual. One thing that they nailed down in wicker …

British-based fashion house KTZ served up some witchy looks for their Fall 2013 collection. My fave has to be the shearling outfit. Shearling is one of those split personality fabrics. One one side it says ‘I will keep you warm in the snow’. Then on the other side it says ‘don’t get …

I love Jeremy Scott the same way I love avocados. A little bit is yummy and wonderful, but a lot is just vomitotious and horrible. I’m a big fan of his collaboration with Adidas, especially the teddy bear sneakers. But, Jeremy Scott on his own can be a little…. …

What do teeth, bones, feet and skulls have in common? The crazy ass, serial killer art shown above by Canadian artist Maskull Lasserre . Is it the cold weather and snow in Canada that brings out the Jack Torrance in some people? We may never know. Anywho, the frame with teeth corners strikes …
