  • DESIGNER TO WATCH: HUB OF AFRICA, ADDIS EDITION – ROOOI

    Last week, we attended Hub of Africa in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. You know the place where civilization is believed to have begun, where all the most beautiful women are thought to reside, and home to the African Union. It’s the ideal place of where old world is slowly catching up to the new world, but…

  • WEEK 3 @ BFX STUDIO: MEET MY TRAINER

    It’s week three everyone, officially longer, but if you subtract my time away in Addis… you catch my drift. Anyway,  I’m super excited to tell you about my trainer at BFX Studio, Derek. Let’s make it very clear, I AM NOT OBSESSED WITH HIM. I just happen to find him very interesting. Like Rachel Maddow…

  • DESIGNER TO WATCH | WYATT ORR

    Designers, Liise Wyatt and Karly Orr, came together in 2012 to create Wyatt Orr. Seen as the epitome of cool “comfortable luxury,” their collections are curated selection of work-wear essentials for the working creatives. Let’s be honest. How many times do you go shopping for a look that’s far from office admin, and no where near…

  • INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE | ZADY

    Everyone knows when you turn a year old things change. You’re no longer a baby. You have to start walking, feeding yourself, even potty training is mere months away. Which is a similar analogy that can be used for everything in life. Even for say, just off the top of my head, an e-commerce site…

  • FOUR POINTS WITH JO-WILFRIED TSONGA

    To be completely honest, I know nothing about tennis, let alone the matches leading up to appearing at the U.S. Open. But when its the start is just a few days away, you can’t help take notice of the who’s who of tennis 2014. It’s like living in Brazil during the World Cup and pretending…

  • INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE| LOUIE CHABAN OF THE LIONS

    Welcome to the digital age people. At this point there’s no turning back. With twitter, Instagram, blogging, Facebook, foursquare, Pinterest and the soon to be thousands other ways our lives can be publically documents, talents we love are much more available to us now than ever before. Especially the talent of The Lions Brand. Through…

  • INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE| JENNY KUBINEC OF LINCOLN MOTOR COMPANY

    I don’t know if you know this, but I love cars – very luxury designed cars. Not luxury like we see on the market today where you brand every inch of an item with a logo, but the discreet nuances that make you ask, “Who?” And I know that Lincoln Motor Company hasn’t been looked…

  • DESIGNER TO WATCH| EFM MENSWEAR

    Donrad Duncan, President and Designer of EFM Menswear, drew on the ideology of taking high performance fabrics and manipulating them into innovative, multi-functional, premiere urban sportswear. Previously apart of Victorinox and Ma.Strum, Duncan transforms the active man’s wardrobe to tailored, classic pieces. How did you get into fashion Donrad? I come from a family of…

  • DESIGNER TO WATCH| FRANK TROPIANO

    I don’t know much about Frank Tropiano, as I rarely know much about any emerging designers we feature. Which is sort of the cool thing about this series. We get to discover, or in this case have them discover us, before they become celebrity designers. You get them when their desire is raw and real,…

  • INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE| VANESSA LACHEY

    Crocs opens Flagship store in New York’s bustling 34th street to which Vanessa Lachey kicked things off by cutting the opening ceremony ribbon. And in true Crocs style, Vanessa was comfortably styled in her stucco Crocs cap toe flats as we talked Crocs, Mother’s Day and her personal style. So, why Crocs? Why not? (laughs) Well…

  • INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE| GEORGINE

    GEORGINE by Georgine Ratelband since we last saw her, chose functional fashion over tailored feminine lines. Not to say she’s gone for the masculine silhouettes that many seem to choose, rather she’s turned a one piece into several looks. A sizeable over coat that offers waist cinching options, removable vest to worn alone atop a…

  • DESIGNER TO WATCH| ANGELYS BALEK

    Is this your first foray into fashion? The AW’14 collection is my 9th collection!  I began to produce my own brand in 2010 and by 2011 had established my “shop in shop” at Zen at Central World in Bangkok. What is your formal training?  My formal training began with a Fine Arts degree in Bangkok…
