Nightmare Bed

2012-01-26T14:00:00.000Z

I genuinely can't think of a worse sight to wake up to. But then I'm just your average, run of the mill, ordinary guy. Of course, if you just happen to be serial killer/zombie/necromancer, this could well likely be your ideal bedding. The things people put on Etsy...seriously.

A. Sauvage for Dr. Martens

2012-01-25T13:59:00.000Z

A. Sauvage for Dr. Martens A/W2012 range.I'm not entirely sure that I'd wear these but there's definitely something interesting about them. I actually rather like the contrast white sole against the black leather of the pairs on the right. The patent ones could work nicely as well. But I've got serious reservations about the bad 80's-graphic, patterened, grey pair. No...just no,

Underwater Love

2012-01-18T10:55:00.000Z

I was looking at some underwater shots from an editorial and it brought Underwater Love by Smoke City to mind. Such a wonderfully chilled song and Nina Miranda's vocal on it is so sophisticated and beautiful. After the rain comes sun, and after the sun comes rain again...this must be underwater love, the way feel it slipping all over me...

There's something subtley striking about Dylan Forsbergs photography. His shots of women have an almost mysterious and ethereal quality, making them more intriguing the more you look at them.

Suit up...the Dior Homme way (Part 1)

2012-01-16T10:30:00.000Z

Photographer Julia Champeau shoots Clinton Weber and Johannes Linder for Dior Homme.

Just look at these tuxedos and their beautiful shimmering fabric, epitomised by the satin-like sheen of the lapels. And the fact that they come in a wide lapel option and slim lapel option allows them to cater to different tastes. As ever, Dior Homme captures timeless sophistication with modern chic.

A friend recommended some songs for a playlist for me and this was one of them. Hadn't listened to Beck for ages, I don't know why tbh...his music's so good and he himself seems cool, just really chilled. Going to dig out my vinyl of Sea Change and give it a listen.

Rock of Ages

2011-12-15T12:22:00.000Z

Cannot wait to rock out to this film. Twisted Sister, Journey, Foreigner, Asia, Def Leppard, Poison, Bon Jovi....the soundtrack is going to be immense! Plus I know that I'm very much in a small minority here, but I love a bit of Tom Cruise (don't hate me). It's almost certain to be a not very good film, but sometimes the unashamedly bad ones turn out to be the most fun, riiiight?

I had to post these just because after watching Drive, I thought it'd be the coolest thing ever to be a stunt driver. Judging by these pictures, Matthew Porter just might agree with me.

Hearing this on the Assassin's Creed ads reminded me that I love this video, and of course the song's great too. I remember thinking that this looked kinda Hedi Slimane-like when I first saw it, and then I found it that it was Yoanne Lemoine. I'm always a fan of seeing Agyness Deyn in pretty much anything, so it was good to see her popping up.

WINTER WANTS: Shearling Leather Jacket

2011-11-19T21:00:00.000Z

I know I've been saying this for the past few years, but I really must get one this winter. And a good one too. I thought I'd found one on ebay recently. It was listed as 'Vintage Men's Shearling Leather Jacket', it sounds perfect right? And good pics too, so I go ahead and place my bid. Ended up winning at like £20, so I was pretty pleased...until it arrived. Turned out that the listing description wasn't quite accurate:a) Not vintage - had the brand name cut out of the inside of the Jacketb) Not men's - on account of the floral print inside and that it zips up from the opposite sideand most annoyinglyc) Not leather - advertising faux-leather as leather...honestly. Some people, eh?So all in all, that was a jacket fail. But I still have some hope of landing my coveted shearling leather at some point.

I have to say, this film looks surprisingly epic. I've got a lot of time for Chris Hemsworth, so it's good to see him in it. Plus it's been absolutely ages since I've seen Charlize Theron on what appears to be really good form. This is definitely one to watch IMO.

Me & my brogues

2011-11-13T12:00:00.000Z

I don't know if there is a shoe equivalent of being broody, but I've definitely got it if there is. Just for really expensive brown brogues though. Everyone I see wearing a nice pair just reminds me of how much I want some. I think I'm ready. I'm old enough. I have the means. I'll look after them, care for them and make sure they're treated well. I can provide them with a stable, loving environment. I don't think it'll be easy, but I'm prepared for the challenge. And it's rewarding isn't it? My dad did it, so why shouldn't I? Get your 'Congratulations' cards at the ready people, in 9 months (well, probably sooner in reality) my new arrival will be on it's way.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

2011-11-12T13:54:00.000Z

Such an amazing song>

Lyrics:

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

If you're a Star Wars buff in need of cash or perhaps just some generous soul looking to make an ordinary guy's Christmas dream come true, get in touch with me. I'll happily part with my gift shopping money for this. My family and friends will understand when they see the jacket in all of it's resplendent awesomeness won't they?

Quoted from Durrr's website:

BREAKBOT: -

DURRR are bringing the shy and elusive Frenchman, Breakbot to London!

Long having made girls (and boys) blush to his eclectic and energetic mixes including his much celebrated Dance on Glass Mix (http://bit.ly/SMKP) for the Asian Dan blog. Breakbot has brought joy to our ears with his happy-go-lucky remixes for PNAU (http://bit.ly/o1C6m) and Justice.

Typically enjoyable electro tracks reworked with his signature slap bass and tinkly bits that got a million blogger kids dancing. His own songs, always unashamedly romantic and often filled with the sound of crickets in the intros, feature his funky basslines and crooning vocals which never cease to make you smile. Breakbot fuses classic French House sounds with the new breeds of electro, 80s funk, and feel-good pop.

Baby I'm Yours

CLASSIXX: -

Recent remixes for ground breaking and diverse artists include Phoenix, Mayer Hawthorne, Holy Ghost, Ladyhawke, Fischerspooner, Groove Armada, Yacht, Beni, Drop the Lime and Major Lazer.
