Can’t go wrong with brown canvas oxfords.

On sale at Urbn for $29.99. Only two sizes left. =(

But there are other oxfords out there, already blogged by my better half.

Askul is a Japanese office supplies company. Kind of like Staples or Office Depot but 100x cooler.

This is a collage by Danish aratist, Sergei Sviatchenko.

I’m currently obsessed with work that is bold, simple, colorful, and grotesque, so I had a natural attraction to Sergei’s cut and paste wonderpieces.

Below are select light blue pieces, he also makes work with the other colors of the rainbow.

I often find great ideas are usually the simple ones.

Thanks, Oh Joy.

Gold

santogold-cover

At first I was kind of resistant to Santogold, because she reminded me much of M.I.A and that somehow diluted the brilliance of both artist. But I soon realized that Santogold stands strong on her own merit. Musically her melodies and rhythms are more diverse, from electronica to reggae to hip-hop infused 80s pop. Stylistically her music videos and her clothes brings out the best of the Brooklyn hipster scene and adds a touch of playful contemporary art minimalism.

I love her album cover art. It is a rather simple concept; a black and white photo of her puking out tons of gold glitter. No fancy photoshop, costumes, or a crazy hodge-podge of colorful chaos. It is simple with the right amount of creep and DIY appeal.

Yellow

REV Joseph Lowery: “Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get back, when brown can stick around — (laughter) — when yellow will be mellow — (laughter) — when the red man can get ahead, man — (laughter) — and when white will embrace what is right. Let all those who do justice and love mercy say amen.”

Amen!
