I WANT THIS: RED SUEDE SHOES

I particularly like these Jil Sandler red suede shoes although at £285.00 they might be a little out of my budget. If you want to buy them for me I'm a size 8.

ANCHORMAN FRAGRANCE: SEX PANTHER

It seems like the world of fragrances has officially gone insane. One of my favourite films of all time, Anchorman has released Sex Panther the fragrance featured in the film and worn by Ron Burgundy. You might remember it being likened to, 'a used diaper with Indian food' or 'Bigfoot's dick'.



Priced at a reasonable $29.99 Sex Panther is a winner. Ladies look out, I'll be up in the club wearing my Burger King Flame fragrance and Sex Panther... I will be irresistible to those with no sense of smell.

SPOTTED [VOL. XI]

I spotted this poster for the SVA [School of Visual Arts] whilst waiting for the subway in Brooklyn. We love the simplicity of the poster, and for a reason we don't know or understand design schools have the amazing ability to produce the worst adverts. Yet this is a fantastic example of a strong concept executed perfectly.

LEGAL GRAFFITI IN NEW YORK CITY

"5 Pointz is a free public outdoor art exhibit that spans a full city block in Long Island City, Queens. It is a commercial factory building that is almost entirely covered by Aerosol Art, more commonly known as graffiti.

5 Pointz is an organized outdoor gallery which is curated by Meres One. The walls painted on the building are all done with a permit after a review of the artists work and proper placement by Meres. The placement is decided on by the quality of the work, the time the artist is willing to spend on it will also determine the amount of time it will last. All murals are eventually gone over due to an influx of artists from all over the world, including the originators of this sub-culture and some of the most famous and talented to do it throughout the decades."
