Damn, Damn and Damn. Check out what  Studio NL created. It’s an Umbrella Coat with built in waterproof pants, a long ass jacket, and a hood/umbrella because holding an umbrella is so damn difficult in rainy weather. I mean, not everyone has a Farnsworth Bentley-type on hand to hold that sh*t for you. …

YUMMY!!! These jewelry designs by Q-Pot is making me hongray! My favorite , of course, are the French macaroons. I think I’ve seen stuff like this on Etsy, but I have never seen a stackable hamburger ring! I would hold the cheese, personally. Q-Pot is a jewelry company out of Japan, so …

Check out the latest from Amato Haute Couture. You may remember them from past posts, so you know I am a huge fan of their work. Amato Haute Couture is based out of Dubai,  so maybe  that is why  sites like Style.com and Vogue don’t really give them much coverage. Their work …

  You know those reusable foam coffee sleeves? Well, round them all up and sew them onto your coat collar and call it a Pedro Lourenço! Then you can carry several coffee cups at one time, kind of like those African tribes that carry all kinds of crap through the …

It’s no secret that I want to preserve my precious gaggle of kitties one day after they float off to kitty heaven, so I can recreate scenes of napping, snacking and more napping throughout my house. Here is how I plan on preserving them. Anywho, Paris taxidermy store, Deyrolle who …

Usually, I read Martha Stewart’s Living and look at the crap I wish I could make if only I had an army of minions that respond to cackles and orders, an endless amount of time, a kitchen the size of warehouse, and a dedicated crafting room. But, I stumbled upon …

  British designer lingerie shop Coco de Mer has opened a fantastic boutique in Santa Barbara. It’s the only US store, so its pretty damn special. I went in to check it out since I love British stuff and beautiful lingerie. I found really cool accessories like a leather bejeweled kitten mask, …
