The Exciting World of Crochet Collides with Gaming - Wii Kniittiing

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Must Haves

a screen shot for upcoming wii KniittiingOK, knitting fanatics, here is your Olympic sport. It's a video game being produced for your Wii console that actually makes knitting look like an fun hobby for people with a normal entertainment quotient. That's right, we're saying that knitting is boring. Or, actually, we're saying it's not boring anymore. Whatever. If you've been looking for a chance to knit competitively and yet not produce any socks or scarves -- this game is for you.

You may want to hold back some of your outpouring of enthusiasm, since there doesn't appear to be any concrete release date for this game. We can imagine that developing a game that's predicated on the art of knitting is time consuming -- and certainly hard to market to potential distributors.For those who were hoping that this game would teach you to actually knit articles of clothing, we're thinking: fat chance. It probably prepares you to knit a garment as well as Guitar Hero trains you to play Ace of Spades. Still, it's pretty neato.

Rubber Duck goes plaid for the fall

Filed under: Accessories, Clothing, Shoes

Rubber Duck is back with a fall collection filled with plaid. Fans like Lindsay Lohan, Sienna Miller and Hillary Duff will be excited to see that the LA/Copenhagen hipster line includes more choices of their infamous Snowjoggers, which are either tons better or a million times worse than Uggs, depending on your age and coolness orientation.

In addition to the Snowjoggers, you can also get tennis shoes and scarves in matching plaid. And to complete your Rubber Duck look, grab a pair of the brightly colored Wayfarer style sunglasses, or the porno-riffic "Las Vegas" goggle-style that we totally covet in white.

Need help putting together your perfect Rubber Duck outfit? In the gallery, a few of our choice favs, including those sexy sunglasses.

I want that! Jay-Z's scarves

Filed under: Get the Look



Little bro Boyd, a rap fanatic who we swear will be the next big producer, has been asking where rappers like Jay-Z get the scarves they rock.

Most rap super stars like Jay-Z, Lupe Fiasco, and Dipset wear scarves by Louis Vuitton and Gucci. You can also try Urban Outfitters for something affordable.

Now that we've dropped a little knowledge on you like a big sister should, save your dough stacks and go get a cashmere Gucci scarf!

From The Front Row: Tie One On

Filed under: Accessories, Fashion Week



Today as I was sitting at the Jill Stuart show, three things were obvious. First, Bette Midler, who was laughing and chatting directly across from me, is insanely chic and gorgeous. Second, the looks for Spring will be layered, willowy, and sheer. And third, the accessory of the season, I predict, will be the scarf.

Throughout the show, models had diaphanous material wrapped around their heads, ankles and wrists as adornments, and the clothes themselves were constructs of silk and organza tiers, often completely see-through.


That's the runway.

The real way: You'll see me with an Hermes scarf wrapped around my wrists instead of a bracelet, or tied around my neck and waist to create a shirt, or fluttering over jeans as an alternative belt. It's time to get creative and express yourself. Wrap it up!

For great ideas on how to get dozens of looks with just a simple square of material, download "Playtime With Your Scarf" from the Hermes website.

Tip of the day: Make like Jackie O.

Karen Allen was very busy knitting, not thinking about Indiana Jones at all

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Clothing


Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
is fun and action-packed. Total summertime fun. Plus, it brings back Karen Allen as the feisty Marion Ravenwood, our favorite heroine from the films. Are you aware that she has the best action figure of all time from the original film? Also, she's an innovative knitwear designer.

Karen went to FIT when she was 17, and returned in 2002 to study machine kitting technology. In 2003 she opened her own studio in Great Barrington, Massachusetts where she produces beautiful sweaters, scarves, hats, gloves and more, all made of Italian and Scottish cashmere.
