March 31st, 2010SHE AND HIM – “IN THE SUN”
Here’s the latest video from SHE AND HIM titled “IN THE SUN”. Fun and lighthearted – they always throw a nostalgic spin into their songs and music videos. It’s high school all over again. And I couldn’t be happier. Tune in.
March 31st, 2010BEHIND THE WRITTEN WORD
The team at AnOther Magazine has decoded the above note from Miuccia Prada to Jefferson Hack – thanks to their resident graphologist. Read below to find out what Miuccia’s handwriting says about her.
The writer has a dynamic personality. She has an active and rapid perception of situations, and her responses are quick and confident. Her life is orientated to the future. Opinions are strong and she is authoritative, decisive, and has all the qualities which make a natural leader (dynamic movement: firm, progressive, resolute, free end strokes, wide, connected, rhythmic, rapid). She is full of initiative and has many innovative ideas (progressive, extravert, dynamic, unusual combination of letters, reverse movements i.e. “magazines”, some irregularities, wide spacing). She creates objectives, and achieves them and likes setting goals where she can put to good use her spirit of enterprise and her taste for action (rapid, progressive, dynamic). She has an original way of looking at things (unusual combination of letters, reverse movements) but her versatile and adaptable nature (supple to firm tension, wide, rhythmic) allows her to listen to others, (aerated, good spacing between lines) and reflect, without losing her independence and autonomy. Socially she is charming and courteous, (warm stroke, good layout, mostly supple tension) enjoying communication with others, though she will keep her distance when it suits her, (wide spacing between words) and may not always suffer fools gladly (rapid, dynamic, some irregularities, some obstruction).
In conclusion the writer must surely captivate all those around her with her love of life, her quick wit, and her sensual, artistic nature where ideas are constantly in full flow.

March 31st, 2010HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR. MARTENS
From Style.com – Not a bad way to show your age: Come out with a few limited-edition styles in never-before-seen fabrications. That’s Dr. Martens’ 50th birthday plan, and for the historic label’s half-century anniversary this Thursday, it’s dropping reissued tweaks of its iconic 1460 eight-hole boot and 1461 three-hole shoe. It’s hard to think of another brand that’s managed the tricky feat of never, over the course of 50 years, going out of style, or one that’s managed to woo postmen (its original clientele), skinheads, mods, punks, grunge kids, hipsters, and It girls, all without changing its classic look. For the new editions, made in the original Dr. Martens factory in Wollaston, England, DM is using pebbled leather for the first time, for a craggy, texturized look—age spots done right—and is tricking out the styles with gold details. Style.com has the exclusive first look at the shoes, which will be available at Opening Ceremony in New York and L.A., Trash & Vaudeville in NYC, and Dr. Martens’ own shops in Portland and Seattle, where they’ll retail for $130 (boot) and $100 (shoe) and be available in limited runs of 1,460 and 1,461. The brand is also celebrating its musical heritage with a series of commissioned covers of cult songs by the likes of the Buzzcocks and the Pogues. Those new music videos—from artists like the Noisettes, the Raveonettes, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Cub—go up Thursday at www.drmartens.com. But our eyes are still on the Docs themselves, which, if the Fall ‘10 runways are any indication, will be as hot as ever next season. Our prescription: Take two of these and call us in the morning.

So, our friend Jack Coleman returned from South By South West – and is in own words, proclaimed “it was insane! THE CRAZIEST PARTY I HAVE EVER WITNESSED”. And coming from him – it must have been pretty wack.
And while he shot mostly film and video throughout his stay in Austin – he managed to sneak these two images – exclusively for the INVEN.TORY blog.
Stay tuned for more from Jack Coleman on the INVEN.TORY blog.
