Cool Hunting
The new offshoot of Miami's style depot (and CH collaborator) Base, the Annex's "Through The Looking Glass" theme and impeccably curated mix of housewares and clothing almost upstages the original. We had the chance to visit the space shortly after last month's opening and quickly added it to our list of favorites.
Laid out like a home with objects for sale artfully displayed in situ, each room features its own interior design with an overall aesthetic that's somewhere in between Diana Vreeland and Murray Moss. (Click images for detail.) The collection of items for sale includes work by some of CH's fave modern interpreters, like Salvor's take on stuffed animals and Harry Allen's resin piggy banks, familiar brands such as Tsubi, Martin Margiela and Assouline, as well as vintage pieces. See more images here.

by Ariston AndersonWe haven't been so excited about a diffusion line since Proenza Schouler came to Target. Comme des Garçons, literally "like some boys," is about to take H&M by storm with a men's and women's collection that pulls up some of the avant garde design house's signature trends, like mad polka dots, externally embroidered jackets, wool suits, skirts and shorts with disjointed pieces.

The perfect balance between Shiraz and Parmesan is the metaphor that came to mind when we met Nat Denning, a fashion retailer, and Michael, a retail shopfitter, who have combined to create Fallow, one of Australia's most stylish and unique boutiques. Stocking the best of Australian and international labels including Friedrich Gray, Claude Maus, St Augustine Academy and Chronicles of Never, this boutique is...
As an homage to Jules Dassin, the blacklisted and recently-deceased director of the 1960 film Pote Tin Kyriaki (Never on Sunday), Self Edge's newest concept shirt is a reproduction of the same shirt the protaganist, Homer, wears towards the end of the narrative. Made of 9-oz black denim from Cone Denim's White Oak collection out of North Carolina, the western style shirt features vintage...
