Hot slice of psychedelia from early T.Rex, who were obviously playing this song from the inside of a prism.

Fluxus serge de Nimes
July 21st, 2009

One of the essential components of Visvim collections are their Fluxus denim range.  These are made from high quality dual ring spun selvedge denim using vintage looms from Japan’s finest denim mill in Okayama. The different slub lengths gives the fabric a nice three dimensional texture and are reminiscent of vintage denim.

fluxus

Available at the store in a range of fits from the classic straight to the super slim cuts, as well as the more heavily processed damaged finishes to the unwashed versions that age really well with wear.
Do drop by the store to have a look at them.

Santa Maria Novella
July 20th, 2009

Santa Maria Novella has been in the perfumery and pharmaceutical business since 1612. Based in Firenze, they are the oldest pharmacy in Italy. Great range of personal care products and toiletries. All stamped with their respective lot numbers so you know that they are fresh. Here’s what I picked up from them recently. Thanks for guiding, Kusan.

P1030117

These are one of my favourites, perfumed paper strips. Great for the wardrobe, drawer or room. Comes in a handy size so it’s great for travel as well.
I would like to visit their store in Firenze sometime.

Press Color

In 1975, Lizzy Mercier Descloux dropped out of art school in Paris and moved to New York to partake in its punk scene, romance Richard Hell, befriend Patti Smith and preside over no wave. Her first solo LP, Press Color, was matchless in showcasing her minimalist punk/funk chops and setting a precedence for the likes of DNA and Contortions. Her later stuff was also key in kicking off worldbeat. But for her punk substance x East Village style, check her cover of “You Give Me Fever”, where she replaces every instance of “fever” with “tumour”. Why? Because!
