Junk Food is good for kids (to wear)

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing, Vintage and Retro, Men, Kids and Babies


Whit Honea is a slacker, a borderline degenerate, and a daydream believer. He's also our resident expert on casual chic. If it's comfortable, and not heinous, he's all over it. He's quite charming, really.


Junk Food Clothing makes t-shirts for everyone, man, woman and child, but they aren't for everyone. They are for the true connoisseur of t-shirt art. Their shirts are soft and weathered, creating a comfortable feel with a retro aesthetic. They combine eras of pop culture and original design with a result that is equal parts geek-chick and contemporary hipness.

Today, in the spirit of school (hey, school spirit!) we're looking at the prints for kids:

FreeLoading sunshine

Filed under: Haute Home, Accessories

How many times have you been using an electronic device only to have the battery die on you? It happens to the best of us, and usually during something really important, like that conference call with your boss and the board or when you're getting the high score on Tetris. It is frustrating, and aside from the example of the conference call, rarely appreciated.

Enter the FreeLoader Solar Charger ($49.95) and with it the solution to your troubles. Hum along with me on this one, here comes the sun, and I say, it's all right. Yes, it is all right. The FreeLoader is a portable, solar-powered battery charger for any number of electronic devices.

From Firebox:

Super sleek and barely bigger than a cell phone, the lightweight aluminium FreeLoader pulls open to reveal two solar panels. Simply charge it by allowing it to soak up some rays. Its internal battery will then power an iPod for up to 18 hours, a mobile phone for up to 44 hours, a PSP for up to 2.5 hours and a PDA for up to 22 hours. That's a lot of juice for such a tiny gizmo. Once the FreeLoader has emptied its charge just power it up again via the sun. You can also charge it via USB if you're near a computer.

Will require access to the Sun (widely available throughout the world).



It's available in silver or pink and even works with the iPhone and iTouch. That's cool, right?

Abbey Road stamps

Filed under: Accessories, Celebrities with Style

In an era of email, it seems somewhat absurd to get excited about postage stamps. But as someone who occasionally sends thank-you notes, I do try to retain a little bit of enthusiasm for new developments in the commemorative postage stamp arena.

Over in the UK, a Royal Mail spokesman just announced a new series of Beatles stamps set to go on sale in 2007. The postage stamps will feature six of the band's most memorable album covers.

While I might not get the chance to mail a letter using Beatles postage anytime soon, I have to say that a Sgt. Pepper stamp sure beats one of those fat Elvis stamps that the USPS issued a few years back.
