"If you don't want to be nude, wear a suit". That was the title Bruce Weber wanted for the Yves Saint Laurent Autumn/Winter Homme 2010 short film. Regardless of the title, the film managed to combine the stylistic sensuality of Bruce Weber, the design aesthetic of Pilati, and often times, a resurgence of Warhol like qualities. (Think Lonesome Cowboy without the hay and horses.)

Pierre Alexis Dumas once said, “Hermes is about quality manufacturing, it’s about strong and positive values, not superfluous values, we work with craftsmen.”—Four hundred to be exact. Each Hermes handbag is sewn stitch by stitch by one individual craftsman. Upon completion, your Birkin or Kelly is embossed with the Hermes logo, however do you know who really MADE your bag? This November, Invisible children are introducing Mend, a brand “designed to seam a personal connection between products, their creators, and you.” Unlike Hermes, every garment carries the name of the seamstress who made it. Sorry Jane Birkin, You may have had a bag made for you but it wasn’t made by you.

VERAMEAT is Vera Balyura, a teller of winding tales in search of the extraordinary. Born in Ukraine, she recalls woodcarving with her grandfather, horseback riding in Utah & moving to New York to be a high fashion model all before the age of 14. Each design reflects a personal (yet universal) inspiration—from traveling the world, making music, maritime ny sagas, botanical structures of light, futuristic visions of rogue spacemen in beer, and before history. Each piece of VERAMEAT jewelry mirrors a self-sufficient life form with a sculptural presence. Hand-crafted in New York City from such fine materials as ecologically sound recycled silver, copper and pure 14-25k gold, VERAMEAT designs are artfully refined contemporary heirlooms.

VERAMEAT’s collection is characterized by richly articulate surfaces, wearability, and subtle details exacted with precision inherited from her grandmother, a surgeon. VERAMEAT is featured in a special selection of New York stores including Catbird, Plum, Operations, Lori McLean, Madewell, Old Hollywood in addition to the London-based Kabiri and CA based ReForm School and many more.

The most comfy vampire teeth duster! Great for late nights on the prowl! 5.5 to 8 index finger. Like all Verameat's dusters this sweet treat is also great for your pressure points thus making you more relaxed while fierce.

Really comfy two finger ring; helps you feel relaxed by pressing on your pressure point’s between your fingers.

Everybody’s Talkin, written by Fred Neil, inspired this people ring. There’s a hot young dude in a stylish hat, a lady in a beautiful low cut dress with big purse & of coarse the guy who’s just about falling off the deep end.

Very cool and classic three finger ring design. Index finger is sectioned off from next two fingers which can roam together. Verameat can also put your initials into the bar with old typewriter style letters.

Blackberry, ipod, Palm we all have one or other these days. And while some of them are the trendiest looking electronics around we still refuse to live without them. Thanks to Jill Partain at Plia Designs we can now hull our gadgets around without looking like we need pocket protectors.

Once I started reading about Au79 I had to find out who the lovey lady behind this wonderful jewelry line was. Lauren Monteagudo is her name & even better she just happens to be from Miami (so yes I adore Au79 even MORE!) The jewelry line, smart yet stylish, is a representation of its customer, a true opportunist who achieves her own goals and enjoys the finer things in life. This brand can be worn by all women who know the value of themselves and know that nothing but the best is the only option.
