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.
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?
Buy them online via their online store at BUY:AMT

Madness is when tradition meets design; Madness is when alter ego, unpredictability and surrealism come together. We’re talking about Indonesian-based label and they’re one-of-a-kind accessories designed by the 3 masterminds behind: Ajeng Dewi Swastiari, Bonnie Natasha Arif and Vannie Astecat.
