It’s hard to look fashionable under stormy-rainy circumstances, but here’s a playfully engineered DiCesare umbrella from Japan ready to fierce the streets with its one-of-a-kind construction of an umbrella design. It’s so fashionably fashionable it’s no wonder the Japanese wear them out as daily accessories but don’t say we didn’t warn you about the beautiful price tag that comes with it!
DiCesare umbrellas are now available at Singapore-based webstore, Mardeu.

We’re absolutely digging the line of shoes offered by Stockholm based label, Gram. With a whole lot of texture play and clean lines in their collections, Gram designs are a breathe of fresh air with city-street vibes as compared to their conventional kicks counterpart. What’s more tempting is that each pair is only produced in very limited numbers worldwide -we’re talking 25 pairs per design. Buy them online from their e-store while stocks last.

No matter how much we love our big-arse leather totes, we gotta admit how annoying it is to carry it around at times especially during a night out partying with friends. We found the solution of all solutions with this leather necklace bag by Eyglo Margret Larusdottir. A perfect little double knotted bag made of goat leather that is big (or small) enough for your keys, cards and phone (just the things you need for a night out!). The only question left is why THIS wasn’t invented 10 years ago.

If you’re someone who love rings and can’t seem to get enough of them, you might want to take a 2nd look at ‘Ring a Day’ by BUY:AMT. For the price of USD$99, you get 7 pop out stainless steel rings and a sandpaper. What you have to do is simply to pop a pre-cut ring from a stainless sheet, do some polishing around the edges and tada, a ring of your own! Before you think you want to trash out the stainless sheets after the rings have been removed, you can also attach them to a chain and double them as pendants. 7 rings + 7 pendants for USD$99 sounds like a pretty decent deal innit?

Even with the massive wave of collaborations these days, we never seem to get enough of them. Moonspoon Saloon is one label that breathes and lives on a collaboration of 4 individuals: designer Sarah Sachs, artist Tal R, Photographer Noam Griegst and stylist Melanie Buchhave; together they bring the best of art and fashion in their own peculiar world.
What’s not to like about a label that celebrates humour, peculiarity, mix-match and crazy textures all in one. Plus, only 99 pieces of each design are produced worldwide, keeping true to its name as a limited edition fashion label.
The collection is available online at Seven New York
When we think vegan friendly designs, we think dull and boring. That was before London based designer, Sasha Knight took a leap forward and started working wonders with Lorica, a man-made material that looks, live and age like leather, but isn’t leather. What’s even more interesting is her line of native-American inspired bags that are made from them, bringing vegan friendly fashion to a whole new different level. Expect to see neon colours, metallics and lots of native-American hand carved detailings in the collection.
The collection is available via the Hyde S.K website.
If high tops and metallics are your weakness, check out this lace up beauties by Common Project with perforated toe, metallic silver leather lining, detail stitching and style number stamped in gold. Plus, everybody’s gotta love anything made in Italy, we know we do.
