Konvertible Kicks

Times is hard and we need shoes that will go the extra mile.

Just discovered two incredible pairs of convertible shoes via Cyanatrend blog

First pair: Nat-2 shoes convert from sneakers into sandals....







Second pair: Goodie 2 Shoes by Natalie Cosette Thorne
Heels with convertible height





The Nat-2 shoes are currently on sale for a pretty tempting price (links on their website), while the Goodies seem to just be prototypes at the moment.

Colette

Colette in Paris is THE high temple of cool, a music store a book store a clothing store a restaurant a kick-it spot a gallery. I want to go. I will go, but a video will have to do for now.

SEIBEI

I came across this group after being linked to the finger-hole hoodies and discovered a treasure trove of cool stuff from this massive Russian design firm.

They have lots of things for sale and other things like their posters (above) are free to download and print as you wish.

Medicine for Melancholy



I'm really excited about this film. I still haven't seen it (and I'm sure it's gonna be a long time before it makes it my way), but independent cinema about two black indie rock hipsters, having a one night stand, having serious discussions, and riding bikes? I'm there! Check out the website about Medicine for Melancholy, join their mailing list, and find ways to support this exciting project. Support GOOD black independent CINEMA!



Update (via Tuckergurl):
IFC Films has acquired the worldwide rights to writer-director Barry Jenkins' "Medicine for Melancholy." The film is in competition at this week's Los Angeles Film Festival, and will be released in theaters by IFC in 2009. "Medicine for Melancholy is one of the great American discoveries of the year," said Jonathan Sehring, President of IFC Entertainment in a statement. "Barry Jenkins has delivered an intelligent, heartfelt and often funny universal love story and introduced two brilliant performers to the feature film world - Wyatt Cenac and Tracey Heggins. The film will not only inspire and ignite great discussions among the African-American community, but is sure to engage audiences across the globe."

Codeep Ljubljana



On the hunt for cool people with good taste in things here in Slovenia, I came across Codeep:

Codeep is a network of innovative groups and creative individuals based in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Working on international and local level, the media of our expression is never defined. Music and visual communication, architecture and contemporary performance, abuse of video and respect for books, web design and urban installations, mainstream work and subversive art, high an lo’ culture, furry animals and robots is who we are and what we do.

I'm gonna try to make some new friends....

Something Store

Send the Something Store $10 and they will send you....something! There is no way to know ahead of time but recent shipments have included a robe, an hour glass, and a space- age looking speakerphone.



Shipping is free in the US and they promise not to send you things like drugs, marketing materials, or miracle cures.

Apartmento Magazine



Interesting new magazine presenting REAL interiors where people really live rather than the super-sanitized ones we encounter in other interior design magazines. I'm looking forward to picking up a copy.

Tokyo Girls Collection

(Via Killian Nakamura's blog )
a reported 20,000 girls descended upon the Tokyo Girls fashion extravaganza which, as opposed to Tokyo Fashion Week, puts on display various lines of "real Japanese clothes" that are available to buy IMMEDIATELY.




I love the concept and the clothes are super fun and young. Check it all out here.
