If you literally feel like widening your horizon, you should take a closer look at one particular suburb of Buenos Aires called San Isidro. It’s a beautiful, hip area where a lot of creative people and artists reside and work. For instance, Dreams Factory, a local company manufacturing sunglasses and graduated glasses. All hand made from the first step to the finished product, these mahogany wooden glasses are waterproof and very resistant. And since they are handmade, every pair is unique, just like the customers.

I’m usually not big into recycled jewelry, but these crystal pieces that won the Inhabitat’s Spring Greening contest are pretty clever. Though a lot of recycled material jewelry has an unfortunate resemblance to the trash it was up-cycled from, these crystal earrings bear very little resemblance to the CD jewel cases they began life as. This is some of the most successful recycled jewelry I’ve found.

LEGO is no longer just for the kids. Now fashionable businesswomen can take them to work with these colorful stilettos by artist Finn Stone. Not only are these shoes the perfect ice-breaker or conversation piece, they may also come in handy if you need to distract a grumpy child on the go.

These dresses take concept of ‘bodycon’ dressing to a whole new level. Hérve Léger has nothing on these sculptural outfits.  Chromat Garments is a fashion line born of architecture and urban design. Each piece acts almost as an exo-skeleton or scaffolding around the human body. As a result, the dresses turn your body into a sculpture on display. Each dress is sure pack a punch. They scream confidence and power. So do you have the guts to slip into one of these sculptures? I know I’d at least wear the sleek half-face mask accessory.

Increasingly, the consumer is expected to give up their freedom and privacy in favour of commerce. This somewhat ironic solution to the problem is provided in the form of this designer wrist mirror titled Private Space. Here, freedom and privacy have themselves become commercial products. These Private Space wrist mirrors are available in different colours and can be ordered here.

UK brand Ciaté has released the Chalkboard Manicure kit which comes with matte black nail polish to make an honest chalkboard out of any fingernail. You won’t have to suffer chalk remorse either — even the chalk is thoughtfully water-soluble so you can wipe your designs away without messing with the base coat.

I love the inspirational story behind this stylish pajama company, it makes me feel like there are still genuinely good people in the world. Punjammies is more than just a comfy pajama manufacturer. It’s a means of empowering Indian women who have been rescued from forced prostitution. Instead of just rescuing the girls and then leaving them helpless to the judgement of society, Punjammies provides an after-care center.

There, the women are given medical help, emotional safety, and education in a craft to help them support themselves. The girls are learning to sew and work as a team. They are learning to be self-confident and trust themselves and others. Punjammies is more than just wearing pajamas. It’s wearing hope.

So this is what happens when big brands hire artists for new campaigns: devil pandas run off with lovely shoes. Naughty panda. This Jimmy Choo commissioned short animation is directed and illustrated by Jo Ratcliffe, in collaboration with artist Rob Pruitt. Pruitt says: ‘I think there is a certain amount of role-playing fantasy that goes into the ritual of buying shoes and I wanted to play up that idea literally with the Angel and Devil panda; it’s the classic good girl/bad girl play’. PowerPuff style Pandas plus pretty shoes, can’t go wrong.

Waist bags (‘fanny packs’ to our American friends) aren’t just meant to be paired with mum jeans and tourist t-shirts anymore. Notable names in fashion such as Rachel Zoe, Lacoste, and DKNY are bringing back this iconic accessory in a stylish new way. Gone are the unfortunate days of bulky plastic clasps and chaotic patterns.

This retro-inspired fashion trend has been seen on the runway at London Fashion Week, and TopShop is offering a wide variety of these packs. The waist bag is available in many different styles ranging from edgy to laid-back, and it looks great worn low around the waist with boots or even over a loose sweater. It’s a convenient and surprisingly trendy way to add some variety to your style.

This project arises from the need to highlight the sensuality from another point of view: audiovisual. An uncensored view of aesthetics and visual artists Sebastian Romero and Juan Ramirez show how women think and managed to capture it in a 40-second video.

The maps Elisabeth Lecourt’s dresses are made from are a little outdated, so you probably still have to consult Google Maps or a friendly person on the street to ask for directions. But these beautiful and delicate pieces are so one-of-a-kind that we should neglect this fact for now.

Most importantly, the work of this London-based artist follows her main subject: the feminine figure. In her own words: ‘Sensitivity and vulnerability are the main subjects in my work…the feminine figure is seen like the spine of my house, like an essential component of this particular world.’

I’ve seen beautiful women’s ankles bleed. Let’s face it. High heels can be the most empowering fashion statement for a woman while simultaneously being the most crippling. Ladies, I’ve seen you wearing ugly tennis shows with your dresses on the commute to work. Adapt or die, right? Survival of the fittest. But what if you could wear one pair of shoes for the whole day without breaking your back or your ankles?

It’s time to invest in these classy Day2Night transforming heels. Choose between 5 different sizes, ranging from kitten heel to sky high. They’re a modern woman’s dream!

Let’s face it, a naked guinea pig is a boring guinea pig. Thankfully, a Japanese website called Guinea Pig Fashion makes tiny little outfits for your guinea pig to strut its stuff in. They create clothes for all occasions, such as weddings, ninja outings, or even when your guinea pig wants to look like Harry Potter. Now you have no excuse to not let your furry little friend be as fashionable as you are.

This recycled dress design takes the concept of a fairy tale princess storybook and makes it reality in a very unexpected way. These children’s storybooks were pieced together in order to form a dress worthy of Cinderella’s wedding day. Designed by Ryan Novelline, the clever gown consists entirely of iconic Golden Books.

What happens when you ask a fashion designer to create anything he wants for a mainstream brand? This guy is clearly not afraid of any legal actions. His designs take hints from pop culture and porn, bouncing from cool to disturbing – and sometimes just sexy.

The Dog Show was created by Anna Dewey Greer and Christine Stormberg, BFFs from Omaha, Nebraska. The shop in LA has a giant white Unicorn head adorning the doorway, which they paint black for Halloween. They have a cat telephone that meows and they eat identical suppers in pink TV dinner trays. So obviously when I happened upon these girls doing fashion – Doggy style – I fell instantly in love. Entrepreneurial, glittery and 100 percent awesome. Feminine chaos at its finest.

These YAKKAY bike helmets look nothing like the bike helmets we’re used to seeing. Well, okay, they’re really in disguise. You can stick to the basic bicycle helmet that does indeed look like an actual bicycle helmet. But you can also move on to the next stage to disguise that bike helmet with a fabric cover that transforms your helmet into, say, a checkered hat or truck cap immediately.

Does socialising at fancy black tie parties make you nervous? Just slip into your black chrome helmet, it’s the ultimate fashion statement. And guess what? It also helps you feel less anxious: it keeps your noggin safe and provides a mask to hide behind in case you’re a little shy about talking to your crush. No one can touch you with this futuristic rockstar collection by YSL, as modelled by one half of French electro duo, Daft Punk.

Do you like beer? Do you like beer so much, you’re obsessing? We saw a pretty fine collection of foamy, ale-y beer-print apparel by Black Milk Clothing and thought you should too. Made in Australia and designed by James Lillis, you can choose from the beer leggings, the beer dress or the beer swimsuit — and they will set you back by less than $100 AUD per piece. Seriously, we want every single one of these for every single size — just in case the beer belly acts up.
