Taschen finally puts out a book worth picking up again. I must say that their latest slew of publications, was, well, way too Berlin to really justify their reputation. But. not anymore. Alice Springs was the alter ego of Helmut Newton's wife, who happens to be one of my favorite ...

I am not going to bore you with silly blogy-nerdy talk about the production of this tee, because, aside from a few Super Mario fiends, who really cares as long as the tee looks, feels and fits good. I really dig the washed out, sun-bleached vibe this LVC tee has, ...

Amazingly enough, people are knocking off prices for their summer gear already, especially now that summer has just started, yeah that's always made sense to me. And retailers complain about a tough economy. Anyway. The Glade just dropped their prices to a more humane level and this Wings & Horns ...

Here's another compromise in my shorts category - as you should have figured out by now, I am not too fond of the short short formal trousers made into shorts look. I do have to say though, and mostly because of the length on these JCrew shorts, they work fine ...

Even if you are only remotely interested in Motorcycles this is a must-watch, to better understand the divinity behind Zero and now Chaboot Engineering. There is a reason ...

Maiden Noir offers a take on the classic hunting vest. Although the purest might not jump at this one, I think the harringbone twill liner, skull embroidery and fit make for a great addition to the city wardrobe. Infact, throw this thing on over your denim jacket, opt for a ...

Ok, the music news just keep getting better here today and this particular piece of information really got me amped. Everyone with the slightest interest in good music should at least be aware of Boris. Everyone and their mother is aware of Ian Astbury. The announcement of them working together ...

Another installment in the "amazing houses..." section here at TRC - this time form Karuizawa, Nagano, Japan. Designed by Cell Space Architects this house really brings together everything that I like about modern architecture, mainly it's interaction with the environment and it's acceptance thereof. It's my biggest gripe with modern ...
