Newish artist update;; santnogold

Recently I’ve been looking for new music, and I happened to come across the new and I must say very catchy Converse 08 sneaker commercial, I think it was on Kanye’s blog or maybe concrete loop, but anyways Santnogold is much like MIA and not surpisingly the two are good friends. Honestly I don’t know what to typify her as, cause her music isn’t R&B, its definiatly not rock…give her a listen an tell me what she is…cause I honestly don’t know lol.

BEARBRICK X DR ROMANELLI

As you know I’m a toy freak so the collab between Bearbrick and Dr. Romanelli hit me real hard. Romanelli is also set to collab with converse, no time is set for when the sneaker is coming out yet though. The BearBrick is transparent and shows the anatomy of the bear and signs it with a band-aid on the forehead.

It’s coming out in 400% & 100% size, and will only be available at certain retailers in October. (possibly wesoldout.com)

get on your bear brick game mangggg.

Ballpark Pens – Salvaged Wood Pens

Die hard baseball fans love memorabilia. It is like taking home a piece of the game. Game balls, baseball cards, or on the high end, coveted field seats that are salvaged when renovations replace the old with the new. The problem is that one of those old Fenway box seats can run in the thousands of dollars due to rarity. Chicago baseball fan Bill Hartel and Mary Ann Wentzel have come up with a way to take the seats everywhere via your shirt pocket. Their Ballpark Pens are made from salvaged baseballpark seat woods – Fenway, Yankee Stadium, Wrigley Field, and a bundle of other classic American stadiums. They come at a discounted price when compared to full seats and double as writing instruments. Visit them at ballparkpens.com for more information.

Oliver Goldsmith Sunglasses

French Truckers presents a quick refresh on the Olver Goldsmith Sunglass line. “Oliver Goldsmith is an English brand created in 1926 which saw its heyday in the 60s. At the time, it was represented by the actresses Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn and Sophia Loren. In 2005, Clara Goldsmith, the founder’s granddaughter relaunched the brand using her grandfather’s artistic heritage. Around 30 models were re-released. And this new era came with new icons: Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue, Jude Law, Jessica Simpson and Gwyneth Paltrow all posed for Oliver Goldsmith. And this year, the arrival of designer Brian McGinn (an Irishman? Yes sir!) aims to bring new styles whilst using the know-how and hand crafted 100% British style.” Some classic looks representing the present trend in eyewear.
