This lean and mean duffel bag was created for the urban warrior in all of us by New York based creative collective Nom De Guerre. The massive khaki coated canvas duffle bag feature soft cotton canvas handles and adjustable shoulder strap. It fastens with a central zip and pressed stud placket and also incorporate two open pockets on the inside. Noblesse oblige… More details here.

Sudah hampir sepekean ini, tidak tahu juga awalnya bagaimana, pagi-pagi bener saat saya ndengerin musik lewat headset Samsung M3510 saya, saya merasakan ada yang tidak beres. Headset kiri saya rasakan kadangf bunyi kadang tidak bersuara, mungkin kabelnya ada yang putus atau gimana saya kurang tahu. Tapi yang jelas memang seperti itu, dan itu membuat saya tidak bisa menikmati alunan musiknya sepenuh hati.

Tapi kalau tanpa konektor penghubung panjangnya (yang lewat port charge dan USB), dan makainya dikantongin di depan tentunya akan lebih baik keadaannya. Saya kurang tahu, tapi mungkin ini karena kebiasaan saya dalam menekuk kabelnya yang saya sampirkan di tubung dengan sedikit melingkari leher itu yang sedikit memberikan pengaruh, sehingga kalau pas posisi itu juga relatif OK.

Karenanya, hari ini saya putuskan untuk mencoba mengunjungi Samsung Center yang ada di Matahari Singosaren Solo. Meski setelah kerja sudah pukul 6 lebih, saya nekad juga, mau gimana lagi, musin seperti ini kadang tidak pasti tho, sekarang cerah besoknya hujan deres banget juga bisa. Saya pun benar-benar nekad, tapi begitu mau berangkat, dah sampai gerbang ada temen yang minta tolong buat diantar pulang dulu. Ya dah, anter aja deh.

Akhirnya perjalanan panjang mencari kitab suci ke Solo saya mulai setelahnya. Meski badan sudah agak capek ya tidak apa-apa lah, demi memuaskan hasrat mendenagrkan musik yang bermutu tinggi. Jam delapan lebih sedikit saya sudah ada di dalam Mall, mencari-cari tempat yang beberapa waktu ditunjukkan oleh seorang penjaga counter. Tapi saya tidak menemukan dimana Samsung Center itu. Akhirnya ya sudah, berotasi dulu di situ, muter ke semua arena.

Sampai akhirnya sampailah di kios iLufa, dari mbaknya yang jaga sih bilang, kalau jam segitu dah tutup dari jam enam tadi. Doh! Untuk headsetnya dia juga tidak ada, iLufa atas juga sudah tutup jam delapan tadi :pusing: tapi baiknya mbaknya nyaranin buat ke pegasus aja, mungkin mereka punya.

Datang ke Pegasus, mbaknya juga baik ternyata (makasih mbak dah boleh nyoba ) setelah omong-omong dikit dikasih pinjem dua headset buat dicoba. Meski memang, sebenere mereka sendiri juga tidak ada stok buat samsung, tapi denger-denger pake headset punya Nokia XM 5310 juga bisa, karenanya saya dikasih pinjem yang punyane 5310, dan sebenere jalan juag sih kalau langsung pakai colokan terujung, paling deket ear bud. Tapi kalau pakai tambahan konektor yang buat telepon itu malah suarane jadi kayak robot. Kasihan tuh mbak Mariah Carey, lagu sweethart-nya jadi ancur.

Dengan berat hati, saya pun pulang dengan tangan kosong, jam sembilan sudah menginjak bumi sragen lagi, set dah capek abis. Sebenarnya saya ingin membuat posting tentang wallpaper Samsung Beat b karya saya yang berhubungan dengan posting ini pada posting terakhir ini, setelahnya ngomongin aplikasi java. Tapi berhubung cerita ini juga ada kaitannya dengan Samsung Beat b, saya rasa tidak ada salahnya saya tu;is juga di blog ini.

Como prometí ayer, quiero compartir la segunda tanda de accesorios para los mercaditos de invierno.

Parte de estos accesorios los llevo este jueves a la UCAB donde se llevará a cabo el bazar en el edificio vicentenario (o el edificio nuevo…). El resto lo verán en el mercado de la Pulpería  toda la semana del 14 al 19 de diciembre en el mercado municipal de Chacao.

Espero que les gusten estos nuevos. Son diseños más elegantes y más detallados. Como siempre digo, son piezas únicas! y eso es gran parte del valor de mis piecitas.

Wearing of eyewear is not only to correct eye defect. In fact these days it has become a fashion statement worn by men and women. There are plenty of eyewear boutiques with wide array of eyeglasses ranging from computer use, sports and simply for fashion.

Wearing eyeglass puts additional class to our entire look. Eyeglasses and eyewear shops are accessible everywhere. Even famous designers of leather goods and ready to wear apparels have ventured into eyewear production. People can now select the frame of their eyewear according to mood, in different colours and styles.

Amongst the mostly metal offerings from Parisian collective Surface to Air are these new 2 & 3-Finger Color Rings, offering in tonal colorways including Red, Blue, and Black. The rings come in seven different styles, all showcasing a 2 or 3-finger format. They should soon become available through the Surface to Air online store.

this is something. i want one. hey, Santa, check this out!

Once again Bape and Tempur get together. This time they worked on the Baby Milo pillow. The pillow features two different Milo faces, one on each side, and will be released in the near future

These have to be some of the best iPhone slider cases to come from Incase and actually in general to date – the Chrome Slider Cases. Featuring hardshell plastic construction with a minimal wall thickness of 1mm, each Chrome Slider Case features a pop fluro interior with rubber guardrails for shock absorption as well as impact and scratch protection. A high gloss exterior finish gives the Chrome Slider Case its unique look that’s sure to turn heads. The case comes in black, silver, copper and gold. They are now available through Apple Stores and the Incase online store.

Sometimes shopping is the awesome in more ways than one. The other day, while hairwhoring round the grid, I bumped into Saretta Tedeschi, manager of Beauty Avatar. It was nice to actually see her in the flesh rather than conversing via IM. Anyhoo, she asked me to take a look at the new collection the girls had released, which I’m sure I had a card about, somewhere in my inv, but group notices if I even get them do tend to get buried.

So I have 3 very different looks for you, and I even pulled out my super special, limited edtition shape from Silouhette (which is no longer avail but gotta give Carissa props for it ) The first dress is Zae, and I love the structured, military feel of it. To soften it just the tinyest, I added my brand spanking new earrings from Uzuri. So new in fact, Bella burnt my ears off when she handed them over, they were that hot off the press.

I’m such a huge fan of babydolls in SL. I used to wear them all the time in RL until Mini Ash came along, then they reminded me of being pregnant so they found their way to the back of my wardrobe, never to be seen again. But thats the beauty of fashion in world, you can wear all sorts of stuff you wouldn’t/couldn’t in RL. This particular one is Carola, and it’s devine. The skirt is shorter than short though, so do be warned

This last look is my fave, not least for the irony of me wearing earmuffs and a teeny tiny bodysuit! Fiona comes in an array of colours to suit all tastes, the white just felt the most dramatic to me. The hair shown is our new love from Boon, that I wasn’t sure I liked at first, but it’s certainly grown on me. Now I’m off to go back to waiting for the postman to deliver my brand new E-Cigs (love you Ivey) Ash Out.

With the holidays coming up, here are some headpieces to look forward to.

So I figured I’d knock out a few posts to take my mind off the revolting weekend. As a break from Skinfair posts, I thought I’d show you some of the retail therapy I did to cheer myself up. It was an expensive weekend in more ways than one

I’ve got newness from Nyte ‘N’ Day in the form of the super cute Lijn dress in red. I love that the texturing makes you feel all cosy, while still sexy. I’m also showing off a new shape, Delyn Nelly, after meeting Linka Demina and her love, both of whom had on the best afros I’ve seen in ages. The lashes are also from Glow Studios, as are the earrings. Shock horror, me accessorising! The hair Dylan is from Maitreya, and the fat pack begged me to buy, swear.

The beautiful top is Bloom in grey from Nyte ‘N’ Day, I’m showing it with the awesome harem pants from Uzuri, they really are happy pants. We loves our happy pants in Australia, I wish I was home, I do miss it terribly. Ash Out.

Oh how I would love the Alexander Wang Coco bag. The perfect handbag. Part rock and roll, part feminine glamour. Its definitely the latest “it” bag.

If any one would like to buy this for me for christmas, I would love you forever.

In the mean time, I’ll just add it to my wishlist and start saving.

Cross your fingers I hear something soon!!

Nixon and Barneys have put together their fourth consecutive holiday watch collection. Made up of five new exclusive timepieces, the collection features three custom 51-30’s, alongside updated versions of The Magnacon and The Time Teller P. As you can see, they kept it classy with heavy doses of black complemented by rose gold accents. Available exclusively at Barneys New York and Barneys New York CO-OP locations (including online) starting November 14, 2009.

Last night we gave you a first look at P-Rod’s Primative watch collaboration with Nixon. Here’s a full look at both the purple/gold and the black color ups. The watches go on sale this Saturday November 14th at 11:00 A.M. If you can’t make it to the store, you can purchase them online atprimativeshoes.com or call to place a phone order after 11:00 A.M. on the 14th. Retail is $200 USD.

Bell & Ross has released what they claim is “the first watch to be constructed entirely of a carbon fiber case”. And if you’re a fan of carbon fiber, the dial and strap also feature the lightweight, high performance material as well. Ready for 100m water resistance. Limited to 500 examples. A lot of watches today, right? But I’ll be damned if this one isn’t a looker.

Devilock called on Garni to produce a series of acrylic devilock skull rings in celebration of their 13th anniversary. The ring comes in black, white or red (red is a Zozo exclusive) and features a silver coin on the side containing the markings of both brands. Exciting to see the use of an actual devilock on a Devilock product – as far as I know it’s pretty rare. Drops at Eproze on November 24, 2009.

Restored this Sperrwolf gearshift-lock. Option on vintage Volkswagens! Just sold it for $350 to Texas, USA.

How about these flip flops?  I saw them online at the Nordstrom Women and Children Half Yearly sale.  Not that any  Tory Burch Flip Flops are on sale- of course not!! But, I bought them as I am thinking ahead – and wore them around my kitchen last night with great anticipation of a warm winter vacation!

I might cop this one instead of my N97 that is broooooooken…
