Zappos Gets Self-Aware

Edited by

Zappos Gets Self Aware

I wish I knew someone with the balls or bills to try this…

Zappos.com is selling a $50,000 limited-edition “Cease and Desist” T-shirt — with your purchase Zappos will permanently disable your significant other’s (“wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend, or ‘it’s complicated’”) Zappos.com account for life. And it’s available in five colors!

Other key points:

  • A Zappos rep personally delivers the shirt and serves as “a shoulder to cry on for up to 1 hour for your significant other” as well as “frolic in a field of daisies with you or do anything that is mutually agreed upon to not be morally or ethically objectionable.” Additional time for consoling or celebrating is available at $3.99/minute or a barter.
  • Zappos dismisses itself from liability “if your significant other creates or uses another account using a different email address.”
  • A refund is available “only if you are permanently divorced or separated within 365 days.

All that, and 100% cotton.

Check out the rest of the hilarious disclaimers or buy at Zappos.

M.I.A? WTF? IDK! TTYL.

Edited by

M.I.A? WTF? IDK! TTYL. M.I.A? WTF? IDK! TTYL.

Warning: M.I.A’s new clothing line may cause seizures! Inspired by a Carribean albino teenager (no, I’m not kidding) named Okley Leslie, M.I.A’s line, Okley Run, is anything but unexpected. Basically, her overpriced and over-designed tees, hoodies, leggings and tanks look exactly like her album art. We’ve got a little bit of Mexican, African and Islamic art going on. Who knows, wear any of these items with M.I.A’s signature gold metallic leggings and you might be mistaken for the rapper herself! Come on M.I.A, shouldn’t you spend a little less time on your awful clothing line and a little more time on deciding what to name your baby? Corey and I discussed this…we think S.O.S or A.W.O.L would be excellent choices. Better yet, put your spare time into recording a new album…I’m dying for some more pop/rap/afro-beat tunes! 

Anyways, Okley Run is available online at Karma Loop and at Opening Ceremony. 

 

Thanks Nylon

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

Edited by

Every fashionista knows that Black Friday isn’t just about shopping gifts for family and friends, it’s about finding amazing deals on the stuff you know you really want. And what better way to do that than to grab an extra 30% off on designers already marked down at SSENSE.com, our new not so secret addition.

We’ve been combing their sales floor all week to pick out some of the best items from this weekends sale.

Check out our Top Ten Sale Picks…

1. Galliano Dark Pink Jeans

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

The color screams “pay the f*ck attention to me” and that’s probably why we love the so much. These Galliano’s are so painfully fetch and at $107 plus 30% off these aren’t gonna be on the sale floor for long. Check them out.

2. Nike Blazer Metallic Pewter Midtops

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

There’s something so Beyonce in Gareth Pugh about these that I can’t help but love them. I rarely endorse Nike’s but I want at least three pairs of these under my Chanukah bush this season. Grab them for $108 plus an extra 30% off before they’re gone.

3. Mike & Chris Floyd Neck Coat

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

Yes, yes I know Mike & Chris are currently debunked, but that’s no reason to not swoop up a couple of their pieces before they’re all gone!!! This jacket is completely covetable and the attached scarf makes it worth every penny and the few jealous stares from your less sartorially inclined friendos. You can grab it at SSENSE.com for $220 plus 30% off.


4. 0044 Cross Necklace

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

Crosses are always hot but this menagerie of various Jesus pieces is the equivalent of molten lava around your neck. You know you want it and for $161 plus 30% off you can have it at the SSENSE.com Black Friday sale. Check it out now.

5. Diesel Black Gold Flosse Dark Blue Dress

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

I don’t give Diesel as much air time as I could but upon seeing this dress I knew their new Black Gold collection would be right up my alley. It kind of reminds me of something Maria Cornejo or color block king Johnathan Saunders would dish out, but at $320 plus 30% off it’s about half the price of one of their pricier pieces. Yay, economy conscience fashions!!! Pick it up here.

6. CNC Patent Black Leather Boots

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

Some argue that patent leather is getting a bit overexposed, but I can’t get enough. These CNC shoes are powerful little statement makers that will get noticed for all the right reasons. You can get them for $466 plus a ery generous 30% off at SSENSE.com.

7. Paul & Joe Bianco Black Melange Trousers

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

They’re wideleg, pleated, and high waisted. The kind of pants that should only be attempted by the bravest of the brave. If you think you can pull these off, buy them. They will make you looking so flippin good and will ensure that your status as style queen remains in tact. They’re available for $428 plus 30% off at the SSENSE.com sale.

8. Diesel Wild Girls Newclip Black Boots

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

Lighting Bolts + Boots = Lighting BOOTS!!! I’m easily swayed by quirky fashion and these Diesel boots ring every bell in my body. You can grab them for $238 plus 30% off.

9. Juicy Couture High Seas Plaid Wool Skirt

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

This skirt is painfully chic. The slight bursts of red in the pattern and it’s undeniable warmth make this a serious must-have. Plus, the plaid is just to die for, I need it, I want it, I just bought it for $209 plus 30% off.

10. Karl Lagerfeld Denise K T-Shirt

Ten Covetable Black Friday Finds from SSENSE.com

What do you want? I’m a sucker for Karl. It’s $250 plus 30% off at the SSENSE.com Black Friday sale.

Play the Tourist

Play the Tourist

Play the Tourist

I’ve always looked at tourist in NY with a bit of envy. After a few years in this city (actually my whole life) the factors that make it so amazing to some seem to just fade into the background. Times Square starts looking like  a big advertisement, the Empire State Building like another skyscraper, and Lady Liberty looks as appealing as the one night stand you can’t seem to stop bumping into at your favorite bar. Fortunately, for those truly jaded by NYC’s magic, there’s this Tourist ready tee from Modern Amusement ($25). It’s perfect for feeling like a newbie while still being a Big Apple regular.
