THE SEARCH IS OVER

My dream carry on is part of the Le Pelle Guccissima... Gucci's latest luggage line featuring a prominent use of mature and subdued aesthetics under the influence of some trademark imagery from the Italian fashion house. Full-leather construction freatures embossed Gucci monograms which is then hand-dyed, polished and treated with wax for special wearing characteristics. The whole collection ranges from Boston bags to little accessories such as travel holders and wallets. These I gotta have. Now I know what to ask my girlfriend for Christmas. I've splurged on her... now it's time for her to splurge on me. I'm so evil.

I SCREAM FOR EYESCREAM

So yeah... I somehow found myself at the Kinokuniya and ended up browsing the magazines. Why am I looking at Japanese mags if I can't read a lick of it you might ask? It's all about the pretty chicks that don the covers. One mag stood out from the rest. The latest issue of EYESCREAM caught my eye. Why? Because of frickin' Chiaki Kuriyama that's why. If I were to be single and running around in Tokyo, I would totally date this chick. Anyways, here is a look at the December 2008 issue as it includes a feature with artist KAWS' signature imagery character. The icon is interactively drawn with Japanese actress, Chiaki Kuriyama of Kill Bill fame.
