Let There Be (Vintage) Light
Edison-era incandescent light bulbs blown from crystal clear glass.  Ferrowatt makes eight different kinds of bulbs ranging in size, shape, brightness, etc.  The Ball-O-Fire™ (bottom left) “replicates a gas light without the need or expense of natural gas”.  Set the mood of your dining room with a one or more of these and you’ll be the tits of your next soiree.  Seriously, who...

The GAP Logo Debacle
I really don’t know what all the hullaballoo was about.  I’m not sure why people care so much.  I suppose part of the reason is because the company has become so ubiquitous and accessible to the masses, people feel they have a vested interest in its logo/brand. They are the Wal-Mart of the apparel industry, projecting an image of value that’s laughable if people would just stop...

XX
I’m a little bit behind on this, but The Reference Council did a helluva nice, concise little write-up on a brand within the Levi’s XX division called Made & Crafted.  Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) for me, there are no shops in my vicinity that carry the line, so I’m unable to see first hand the pieces in this smaller, somewhat obscure sub-brand.  For those of you...

Apologies
I’m still getting used to the interface of Tumblr, so if I keep following/un-following you, it’s because I’ve been testing out a code mod for my theme that allows for people to see who I’m following in the sidebar.   After tweaking and testing out my feelings on the overall appearance, I’ve temporarily decided not to go with the mod until I can figure out a way to...
