I think a shack in this location would be amazing, so this modern marvel on an island, in Paraty, Brazil pretty much defines paradise.  You can only access it by boat/dying and going to heaven.

Taylor Dunfee, who shot our lookbook, is talented behind the lens, but its not his only medium.

My first association with the trench coat was my middle school latin teacher, Magister Stancell.  He was a former Las Vegas investigative reporter in the 60’s, and regularly wore a Burberry trench.  Unfortunately in high school, the school shooting incidents gave the coats a creepy “trench coat mafia” association.  Over the last few years I have started to re-appreciate the trench coat for its classic design, equal parts form and function.   Burberry, the house behind the trench, created this amazing example for Liberty of London in honor of the 25th anniversary of London fashion week.  I love the tailored cut, the leather wrapped buckle on the collar detailing and the classic Burberry plaid reinterpreted in a subtle purple and back colorway.  Even if you’re in London this friday when it’s released good luck finding one, as they’re an individually numbered run of 25.

Although, I loved the jacket, I wasn’t sure about posting it until I saw the Burberry Black Label A/W 09 collection (from a Popeye jp editorial spread.)  Burberry is definitely killing it with the coats this season.  Unfortunately, this is their Japan only collection and will probably be equally hard to get your hands on.

the sharpest a ginger’s ever looked?

While I was laying in bed, suffering from post tradeshow sickness, checking cobrasnake’s pics from the secret MIA show, I saw this pic of Squeak-e-Clean in the Radiant Baby snap back.  We’ve had N.A.S.A. on heavy rotation in our itunes all year and are stoked to see Sam rockin some Ampal.

NASA music + radiant baby + mean 2 finger pyramid ring = unstoppable party bangers

Much like the alex and his droog’s nadsat english russian slang, the surf ambassador drops a little knowledge…

the 2010 mercedes sls amg…

“the 300SL-inspired “Gullwing” is packing a front/mid-mounted version of the venerable 6.3-liter V8 fitted to the majority of AMG’s offerings, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox channeling 563 hp and 480 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels. Weight is pegged at around 3,500 pounds, allowing the SLS to run from a rest to 60 in 3.7 seconds. Top speed is 197 mph and optional carbon ceramic discs should bring the party to a halt with supreme authority” via autoblog

Its pretty impressive on paper and is definitely a much cleaner design than their last supercar, but to me it really doesn’t even compare to the original that inspired it.
