Those sleek boys at Porsche Design are back at it with this simplistic creation…
It's not a hard drive. It's not a camera. It's a...
It’s a sleek monolith-styled torch flame lighter that will set you back a cool $160 (about R1000). It comes in a variety of styles like brushed metal, matte black, and even carbon fiber. Get it here.

Most of the women I know have a bag that’s packed full of junk or a shit-load of things they ‘really need’. But they can never seem to find anything which is extremely annoying for me – so imagine how bad it must be for them? That’s why I figure this little baby will come in handy…
This will light up your life. Believe it.
The SOI happens to be a somewhat flexible light source that intelligently tells when you reach into your bag for something. It turns on when there is close approximation or slight contact and when there isn’t, it conveniently turns off. Bang!
No more constant hunting in the dark
It is tiny, but the light is big and bright so you’ll never have to miss calls again because you couldn’t find your phone or embarrassingly empty your entire bag onto a bench in the middle of a mall – pretty handy if you ask me. The nifty light will cost you $40 (About R290) here.

I’ve featured many timepieces on my blog in the past. Like here, here and even over here. But nothing to date has intrigued me more than this faceless watch (more so than this faceless watch)…
The Keyser Söze of timepieces
Sure, it’s not ideal having absolutely nothing in the centre – what’s the point? But the genius of using lighting around the border to indicate the hour and minute hands is splendid.
Variety
This bad boy appears to come in two different colour options. The question has to be asked: is a watch really a watch without a face?
Inspiration can come from anywhere. In this case, Ralph didn’t drink Absinthe, he was bowled over by a 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic Coupe he owns. Our boy mated the auto world with the fashion world, and has given birth to none other than the Ralph Lauren Sporting Watch…

The watch is reminiscent of the car’s interior and features an elm burl wood ring, Arabic numerals for increased legibility, arrow-shaped hour and minute hands supposedly making it look as royal as the Bugatti that influenced its design…
Ralphy: The man with the plan.
The movement of the watch is crafted by the Richemont group – the same company that makes Cartier, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Panerai and IWC. The “must-have” designer timepiece is for a good $13,200 – that’s about R100,000

Earlier this year during the World Cup I showed you these Superga Flag Shoes which I thought were not only great looking but also very interesting in terms of advertising during the 2010 FIFA soccer event.
It seems the Italian footwear company isn’t stopping with the cutting edge advertising just yet…
Cue Star Wars music right about now...
Nope, they have done it again – this time with a huge replica of their famous Superga 2750 Heritage style shoe along the highway right by Cape Town International Airport.
When I say huge, I mean it. This is THE LARGEST SHOE IN AFRICA.
You know what they say right? Big feet... big...
The masterpiece was constructed by Wideopen Platform, a Subsidairy of Primedia-Unlimited, who specialise in delivering ground breaking, high impact outdoor advertising for the South African market.
And boy, have they delivered on their promise! Press play below to see a short film showing the construction and setup of the large Superga shoe in Cape Town…

What’s the most a bottle of nail polish could cost? R200? Or do you draw the line at eighty bucks?
How about R1 Million? That’s about the cost of this Models Own Gold Rush bottle of nail polish…
You gotta really love gold to get this glaze!
Don’t be fooled though – the shimmering metallic shade doesn’t have actual gold in the formula, but the outside is dripping with the real thing – along with 1118 inlaid diamonds baby! It’s available at British jeweller Frost of London for those wanting to invest in some commodities – for the rest of you ladies (Adam Lambert and the Parlotones), a R60 “ready to wear” version of the polish is also available.
The 1941 Patent
The Wonderbra is, for good reason, hailed by many men and women as the eighth “wonder” of the world.
I’m not going to get all science on you, but the real secret to dramatic cleavage (which is roughly half a century old) is some simple precision engineering: three-part cup construction, precision-angled back and under-wire cups, removable pads called cookies, “gate back” back design for support, and rigid straps.
Thanks to these technological advances we’re able to celebrate this sort of thing…
Her breasts and career were given a push!
The original Wonderbra Girl campaign catapulted the career of Eva Hertzigova into the international stratosphere and all the subsequent local Wonderbra girls have been honored to be associated with the brand – you could be too, just read on…

Oooh... a locket!
This pretty little lady-locket is designed by Emily Rothchild. And as lockets would have it, you’d expect to place a single picture of your BFF in there.
But NO, NOT this locket! Because this locket…
Bang! Bet you weren't expecting that!?
…this locket lets you carry around thousands of BFF pics and you can share them on the go!
Fancy hey? (via)
Did you ever see these other USB memory sticks??
A couple of weeks back I put my closet through a little “Spring clean“. In the process I got myself several fine shirts and soon after found myself some fabric cufflinks to compliment the new threads.
BUT, something wasn’t quite right! You see, I obviously have some weird body proportion issue in that my arms are too long or too short – either way my shirts needed an adjustment and there was only one man for the job…
Bugs - Hides on the top level of this centre in Rivonia
Rivonia Tailors, owned by “Bugs“, is a fine establishment nestled on the first floor in the Rivonia Mews Shopping Centre (I think that’s what it’s called)…
This place screams "tailor"
Here’s my story…
I payed them a visit with four shirts that needed to be brought in a bit. I can honestly say that for the first time in a long time I was shocked at the price! It was ridiculously affordable! R50 per shirt!
Bugs and his team at Rivonia Tailors managed to turn my shirts into perfect bespoke garments in just three days and now I’m looking suaver than a “GQ Best Dressed Man” winner!
Rivonia Tailors officially has the idale stamp of approval and I strongly recommend you pay them a visit for any tailoring needs regardless of whether you need a custom mankini, and adjustment to a ball gown or the shortening of an old jean pant: 011 807 3958
