Ann-Sofie Back for Fred Perry Blank Canvas

Fred Perry commissioned Swedish designer Ann-Sofie Back to develop a capsule for the brand's Blank Canvas campaign.

Based on her creativity, Back has created a range of garment that are so appealing that we can't afford to just let it pass.

This collaboration was seen circulating on tabloids last October, however, we decided to show this cos' we think it's definitely worth it. A little out-dated, but it's definitely worth it.




According to the site, Back drew inspiration from products and issues that made her felt uncomfortable.

Get a closer look at the collection over here.

Puma RS100 "Crocs Inspired"

Drawing inspiration and concept from Crocs, Puma has released it's RS100 applying the EVA formula onto it. Solely refering to the holes and coincidental material similarities, the closest we can link to is to them. However, we can say it's pretty stunning, and foresee it could be extremely lightweight, just like the Crocs. Perhaps, it may not be a good thing for what RS100 is madesom for. Anyway, if you're looking for ething fresh, you may get this at Flauge.

New iPod shuffle


We could not imagine how small can it get further than this. Earlier, Apple introduced a shrinkage version of it's iPod shuffle. Despite the obvious difference of the player, a new feature has been included in this tiny piece, where the gadget tells you what song is playing at the moment off usage.

Since there isn't any screen to view what song is on, it definitely does a lot better with a voice-assisted directory to pick your favorite track. Pack in a 4GB memory, retailing at only RM309 ($79 USD).

If you have not get your iPod up til this day, maybe it's time to spend some cash. More info via Apple.
