Thomas Pink iPod Commuter Tie
02. September 2009
Thomas Pink are certainly decent shirtmakers. The shirts aren’t insanely expensive, and they can stand a rigorous cold wash at 3 am with shaking hands, covered in blood. What? Anyway, Thomas Pink have updated their iPod Commuter Tie, which I have to say is a pretty surefire way to look like a wanker or an estate agent on the train to work. I can understand the rationale behind it – suits have had “phone pockets” for a while, to minimise ruining the line of the suit with a great big brick coming out of your side.

DriveDesign 125m 7Cs Superyacht
01. September 2009
So you know the deal. It’s a big CGI yacht, it’ll probably be commissioned by a billionaire, and it’ll probably be the last resting place of a number of misguided prostitutes. This is a design by DriveDesign who usually do things to do with driving [cars]. So it’s just a big drawing right now, but the whole frigging interwebs is all over it. Read more after the jump.
Yoshihiko Satoh’s wooden speaker purse
31. August 2009
Speakers. Purse. Wood. A match made in fantastic Japanese mad design heaven. Nobody can dispute that the Japanese have the best flair for imaginative (often completely baffling) and yet intuitive design. I know it might sound like I’m teeing up for a bad taste/possibly racial joke there, but I’m not. Shame on you for thinking that. This is the wooden speaker purse by artist Yoshihiko Satoh, and it’s $340. I don’t think that’s alot when you consider the crap that Chanel and Gucci turf out at ten times the price.

Keith Haring Domino Set by Vilac
31. August 2009
God it feels like an age since I last graced the keys. That’s probably a generous apportioning of the word “grace”. If you can interpret the two-finger swooping eagle typing technique as graceful, then thanks. You should definitely review my articles. We featured a Sophie Matisse chess set a while back, and in that vein is a substantially cooler Keith Harin domino set. It’s produced by Vilac and can be bought from Paul Smith for £40 and as far as art/cool credibility affirming purchases go, this is a great one to casually leave on the coffee table. Oh this? It’s just a domino set featuring the iconic work of Keith Harin. Yea, he’s brilliant isn’t he. I loved his work with Orville*. Read more after the jump.
Etihad Airways’ new suite thing.
27. August 2009
Etihad Airways have a new uber-class suite, which is, well, look at the pictures. There’s some stuff in them, like a BUILT IN PLUG FOR ETHERNET, which I’m sure you’ve all just shit your pants about, but it’s a pretty basic formula of flat screen telly, flat bed, and some semblance of privacy. That’s a shame. I love conversations on aeroplanes. I like to get a good friendly conversation then throw in a pronounced and visibly uncomfortable facial tick, or feign a mild stroke. That or just watch a movie or something. Speaking of which, WTF is the dude in the last picture (after the jump) doing watching Madagascar? Champagne sir? No thanks, I think I’m just going to bed down in my PJs and watch this animated kids film about some sassy hippo and a giraffe with Asperger’s. Pics after the jump.
Mercedes covered entirely in white gold = $50m
27. August 2009
I found this on reddit, and was sceptical at first. Who the hell would willingly write off the most expensive Mercedes on the market and a load of precious metal for $50 million. Look at the gentlemen to the left of the picture, and that should explain things. I’m not saying Emeratis waste money on meaningless crap…but…you know, Dubai. I’m surprised that place is even still standing in the recession. Hopefully one day they’ll stop building all that ludicrous stuff there and give that Asian slave-labour workforce a rest. I mean “cherished itenerant workers who are free to go at anytime”, lawyers. What was I saying again? Oh yea, the Mercedes. Right, in order to even begin to afford the keys (just the keys, not the car) I’m off to go win cash. More pics after the jump.

Justin Timberlake and Givenchy have their fingers on the pulse
25. August 2009
I do like Justin Timberlake, even though he puts his name to almost anything. But this is serious credibility stretching stuff. This is JT and Givenchy’s “Play” aftershave, and it’s got buttons like play, pause and rewind on it. Yes, as in press play on your iPod gadget you trendy shit. Wait, I own something with buttons on to play music. Maybe this is aimed at me. I quite like the music of Justin Timberlake too. What does it smell like? Oh who the fuck cares, people stopped worrying about that part years ago. Read more after the jump.
Nau Fluent Stash
24. August 2009
Wash bags are items that instantly remind me of Christmas. It’s the ultimate man-to-man gift, given or received. But, you know, who cares. Thanks, though, to everyone who continues to buy me washbags for Christmas, I’ll continue to reciprocate until the sheer scale of back-and-forth washbag exchange causes the fabric of space time to fold in on itself. But enough prophesising. This is the Fluent Stash by Nau, and it has the dubious honour of being the sexiest washbag I could ever hope to give or receive. I know it’s got an iPhone in the picture and all sorts of exciting items, but I’m reliably informed that it is indeed for toiletries. Dad: take note. Read more after the jump.
