Moment Sound

Creatures of the Wind AW09
Loving the witchy goodness that is Creatures of the Wind AW09 collection. If you ring in 2010 wearing one of these, it's sure to be a good year.

GirlSavage
These feltidermy animals from GirlSavage make us swoon. They're cute, they're cuddly, and no animals were harmed in the making.
Riot Tuxedo In Your Blood
Can't get over just how amazing this new Riot Tuxedo longsleeve "It's In Your Blood" shirt is. Maybe because I'm obsessed with bats, perhaps because it's the softest shirt ever or who knows, it might have something to do with the people behind Riot Tuxedo being supremely rad and being one of the best companies around right now. Whichever works. X - Jen
Stephen Eichhorn
We love Stephen Eichhorn's beautiful, unexpected and sometimes funny cut-paper flora and fauna collages
Junghwan Chei
The School of the Art Institute of Chicago student Junghwan Chei designed a pillow made explicitly for napping while working at your desk, so you no longer need to rest your head on a stack of papers.
Diffraction Fiber
Imagine coming downstairs on a sleepy Saturday morning, flipping on the TV, and cuddling up with some comfort food?
Robin Cameron's Mind Maps
Catch the book launch and opening of Robin Cameron's Mind Maps this Saturday at Golden Age. Cameron is a prolific zine publisher, and in her Mind Maps project, she attempts to illustrate the inner-workings of the artistic mind in type-A charts and pie graphs.
Riot Tuxedo
Just about nothing beats this trashy biker couple announcing their love for each other and Slayer on this rad Riot Tuxedo shirt! X - Jen
Laptop Sweater
In Chi-Town, it's so cold that even your laptop needs a sweater. Fortunately, the Post Family makes one.
Samsara Designs
As much as we like Samsara Design's hats, we also like what they've done with this one, turning a bowler into a perfect place to show off all your flair. (Via Refinery 29.)
Kanye West "Welcome to Heartbreak"
The video Kanye released on February 17, 'cause he got all nervous, which is probably a really good thing for Chairlift.
Flosstradamus featuring Caroline Polachek
This collab between Chairlift's Caroline Polachek and party-throwing duo Flosstradamus is a wee-bit out of left field. Here's hoping it's the first of many more like it.
Creatures of the Wind
Creatures of the Wind's SS09 collection includes this nutty wooden necklace and a corresponding bolo tie for guys. Can't go wrong with a bolo tie.
