Hello Kitty is getting mucho love for her 35th Anniversary. The latest collab is with STUSSY. This collab is too legit – it includes tees, a hoodie, keychains, stickers, and a SCRUNCHY?! Bad news is the collection is only available in Japan starting November 7th. Sooo…any readers in Japan wanna hook it up?! =)

Check it out…

Big ups to VOGUE France for featuring pieces by KAWS in the background of this Raquel Zimmerman shoot. I’m a  big KAWS fan after checking out the Long Way Home exhibition in LA. Styling looks a bit Lady GAGA-ish but it fits with the pieces. Check it out…

So I finally went through the few photos I shot at Formula D, Irwindale last week since a few people have been on my ass about them.  Anyways, here they are in all their minimal glory.

By appointment only, Triumvir has completely revamped their front room and created a very unique and clean showroom.  I finally got a chance to drop by today and check everything out and it really is a unique experience you have to check out.  The showroom was completely built by Triumvir themselves, and features the entire fall/winter collection including a super clean M65, khakis and jeans, plaid button ups, and a line of tees.  The new line is strong and since I first saw it during MAGIC i’ve been preaching about how much I love the line.  Make sure you visit Triumvir’s website for information on setting an appointment for a private viewing of the full collection!  [contact: www.triumvir.com ]

Dropped by the IM King office today to grab lunch with a few of the guys as well as asking them to come on board for the Winter Buyer guide coming soon.  If you ever get a chance to visit the IM King office, I swear it’s the most people i’ve ever seen at a brands headquarters, and all of them were characters.  By 4:30pm, people were downing shots of 151.  They’ll be coming out soon with their schwag for the Holiday run as well as participating in the next issue, so make sure you stay tuned!
