With everything going on in the world and the election shortly approaching, a vast majority of the fashion industry has been forced to open their eyes and take action. Dover Street Market teamed up with various artists and WWAV (When We All Vote) to get everyone out to vote in the upcoming election. The most outstanding piece was created by a black artist named Cam Hicks. He’s an aspiring creative director and his sweater highlights the many things that voting can change.
If you love minimal furniture with a bit of a nuanced look, checkout Lichen. It’s an archival collection that consists of designer furniture located in Brooklyn, NY. I discovered this store while I was living in Brooklyn. They have an amazing selection of home goods and other little trinkets. I most recently bought their bamboo divider and it is great for large spaces that need a unique way to be sectioned off.
I can say with full conviction that Happy 99 is probably one of my favorite clothing brands to date. The craziest part is that the clothes are just the bonus when it comes to Happy 99. The designers @domsolo and @spicyobj take great pride in their well designed clothes, accessories, 3D advertisements, and even home slippers! They have an interesting way of showcasing their pieces through their 3D runways, check them out here.

Quarantine can be very boring, with all types of fun activities slowly reopening, the quickest way to feel any sense of excitement is through streaming services. For someone who really appreciates Japanese culture, there’s tons of anime that did just the trick for me. Here are a few shows that would entice both veteran and newcomers to the anime world. P.S Samurai Champloo has an amazing soundtrack with an opening theme song created by Nujabes (RIP).
Anything Toro y Moi is pretty much heaven sent, but Soul Trash is the culmination of all the things you love in electronic, dance, trap, and ambient music pressed into a nice panini.
