Spring & Clifton

A taste of the Spring/Summer 09 collection. I've been a fan of Spring and Clifton for about five years, I still own some of the earlier knit work sweaters the designer/owner Michelle Zacks started her company off with. I don't think I'll ever get rid of the knit sweaters, they are timeless designs. Every trip I made to NY I would make sure to stop by Michelle's little boutique to snatch up any one of a kind sample she might have, sadly my trips to NY are few and far between these days.

If I was not broke I would buy all of this. Check out Spring&Clifton.com

Moustache May 2 weeks away

I myself am a huge fan of guys and moustache's always have been (don't know why my father never had one). For me the sleazeir the better but I always get a kick out of my guy friends and their insane handle bar moustache growth. So for those of you ladies (or dudes) who can't participate in growing a crazy fun stach then here is another fashionalbe option for you other than drawing on your finger with a Sharpie. The Moustashe ring! Sooo cute, I love it. So in honor of Moustache May I suggest you buy one they are only $45... and for those who love contests (and who can grow upper lip hair) check out Moustache May.com it looks like they do their website yearly and the 2009 site isn't up just yet but check it out anyway and see last years submissions.

Where to buy the ring? Straight from Melanie! On a great site called Super Market HQ that has a ton of other wonderful independent designers and artists.

Fashion and Art always a beautiful mix

PRADA toilet made out of cardboard and thermal adhesive


CHANEL guillotine mixed media


CHANEL chainsaw made out of cardboard and thermal adhesive

Tom Sochs creations might mean that Prada is a shit box or that CHANEL is a tool for pain and destruction?... I have no clue I'm the worst at reading the hidden meaning in one's art. I just know I love it and think its amazing, and I plan to get the CHANEL chain saw tattooed on my little body somewhere. I've always wanted a CHANEL tattoo mostly because it's my last name but I never wanted the CoCo logo and I'm sure you can guess why... EVERYONE has that! I thought about just the name in bold but now that I have seen this... I can say "Fuck me gently with a (CHANEL) chain saw".

Selling: My Bike

Poor thing has never been used. So sad I know what a waste, she's a 56cm fixed speed with no breaks (thats why I don't ride her). Along with the bike I do have a mini tire pump that can straped on, a set of hand brakes and wire but I had ordered the wrong sized brake calliper so that's the real reason I never added the brakes. I want to sell her for what I paid which was $300 being that the bike is brand spanking new or give me your best offer. Please take this bike off my hands I feel like an asshole for having it as an art piece in my living room. If you are interested (or know someone who might be) hit me up whiteandblack.la@gmail.com
