clothing optional

enough about clothes and jewelry. lets talk about something else.
im super excited about this weekend, when i'll actually get to test out my new (old) bike in new yawk citaaay.



this is the 2nd bike i've ever owned, the 1st being the one i had when i was a little kid -- bright pink, came with removeable training wheels. i bought this bike at a yard sale during my post-july 4th vacation in MA. there are apparently loads of yard sales in MA, and unlike the sales you usually find in NYC, these sales are ridiculously cheap. like "this-70s-looking-chair-is-$1" cheap. and i know, that i can probably find that same chair at some "vintage wares" store in nyc for $50. so, pretty freakin awesome, these yard sales over there! and the first one we hit, i got the bike. and i paid $15 for this baby. (take that, $40 used-bicycle-selling-man in williesburg!)

but for those who don't mind splurging a bit on some "modern wares," i found a website called Charles and Marie that sells loads of really cool stuff -- some obviously completely out of my price range, and some that'll cost you only a week or two of eating nothing but tv dinners.



inside-out glasses... for wine and champagne




pretty nifty lightbulb!


i have to say, this is probably one of the smartest designs ever. this is a design for a set of "rocking vats" that can turn the above chair into a rocking chair. although these rocking vats currently only fit that type of chair, designed by the same person, if they can expand the idea so that it can fit all chairs, that would be even more fantastic!


this candle holder is currently on my wish-list


and for the funky home... baby head candles.

Wow, 40 bucks for a bike at a yard sale? I thought Seattle was bad with the overpricing on used stuff.

I want those inside out glasses and the bizarre light bulb. Very cool finds.

Have you ever realized that when you buy readymade suits you get a choice of only a few colors & styles, also finding the perfect fit are quite difficult? Wouldn’t it be better to choose from over 2000 different British & Italian fabrics and get a tailor made suit at a similar price that you pay for readymade suits?

We are a company based in Hong Kong and have been providing custom made suits & shirts since 1997. With representatives in major cities around the globe we can arrange to show you the fabric samples and take your measurements, or you can also place your orders online with the help of our measuring guide. There are over 2000 fabrics to choose from along with all the latest styles.

All our suits and shirts are produced by highly skilled Shanghainese tailors in Hong Kong and delivered in about 4 weeks, express delivery can be made in 2 weeks at a minor extra cost. In case you are not able to find what you are looking for then please let us know your requirement may it be in words or by a photograph and we could arrange it for you.

We also have an outlet at the Hotel Intercontinental Budapest where you are most welcome to visit us. Though we are not located in streets like Savile Row (London), we have still been able to offer made to measure suits to many VIP’s from around the world.
