collage of the day: if you didn’t know, now you know – what a world?

the australian
the swede
the t-shirt

it goes something like this… handsome australian born male, nomad, brain whiz, ex hacker, reveals truth through classified leaks, makes cover of time magazine, is told to stop… refuses, site is shutdown, domain refused, credit card is disabled, citizenship is denied, is accused of rape… by a swede, with CIA links, case dismissed on lack of evidence, outsmarts the system gets site back up, rape charge is reinstated, interpol arrest warrant issued, arrested in london… and were told truth kills in a world where lies apparently… save! merry xmas and happy shopping. if you don’t like reading watch this from svt. by xy

Cire Trudon wafting into town


cire trudon is the worlds oldest candle maker, and is the newest addition of french scent indulgences in new york’s nolita neighborhood. 54 bond street, downstairs, to be exact. with 367 years of heritage, being the candle producer for royalty, and having developed the perfect wax for cleanly sharing their fragrances this may call for a showdown with previously reigning french scent stars at le labo. by kl

a handsome ideology


something as simple as the perfect little stool can speak of a collage of perspectives (if you want to contradict yourself), but in the spirit of getting back to basics i’ll just say that quality handmade craftsmanship of natural materials, that can last a lifetime is better for you, and me, and them, and mother earth, and your image ;). i can imagine this multi-purpose cuttie aging well. you can pick him up at another country. by kl

mister tom ford in french playboy

ok the man is cool we got that. confirmation by photographer mathias vriens. too bad the french edition of playboy as we knew it is gone. i guess another example of how good/better work doesn’t necessarily make much money or sell… at least not to truck drivers that is. by dd
