SOCIALISME

Holy shit.

THE SELBY

My favorite website of the moment is THE SELBY.

Todd Selby photographs the places called home by a wide variety of interesting people. From Brooklyn to London, Tokyo and Milan, The Selby gives us a glimpse into the creative spaces belonging to artists, designers, models, musicians, magazine editors, chefs and more. I can get lost in it for hours.

PASSENGER

This looks awesome.

T MAGAZINE - THE STRIP

This is an editorial from New York Times Style's T Magazine I meant to post a couple months ago. It was shot by Sebastian Kim and I really like the styling by Andreas Kokkino and Melissa Ventosa Martin. It features a couple pieces from the Opening Ceremony/Pendleton collaboration.

NOVEMBER TUNES

The Beach Boys meets Joy Division.


I'm a little late, but this is undeniably epic.

CHESTER WALLACE

I'm definitely not the type of guy that is afraid of carrying a bag, in fact I've always had a real appreciation for them from a function and style standpoint. I probably inherited it from my father, who always has a great looking bag that's suited perfectly for the occasion.

Lately I've been borrowing his Chester Wallace tote for transporting my laptop and reading materials every morning to work the Jelly Generation show. It's got a cool shape that can be carried in its elongated form by the handles, or folded down to make use of the shoulder strap.

Chester Wallace bags are made by Portland designer Patrick Long who named his canvas tool bag inspired line after his grandfather. They're sturdy as hell, made with heavy weight cotton, a reinforced bottom and nylon handles. I love the flap pockets on either side and the contrasting color handles/strap.

Oh and for the insecure tough guy afraid of what his bros might say when they see you with your "purse", you might be comforted in knowing that Chester Wallace bags happen to be designed to perfectly fit a 6-pack of beer. Crack a brewski for functional fashion.

JELLY GENERATION

Last Thursday, the art exhibition my family's creative studio has been working on finally opened at the Goldsmith Gallery in Chinatown, Portland. The show, JELLY GENERATION, features the work of over 30 young Chinese artists, designers and photographers, and was curated by my father. Be sure to come check it out.

Here is some cool press from The Oregonian:
