Zanerobe
The finest tasting meals involve quality ingredients, thoughtfully but simply prepared, and Australian fashion label Zanerobe is proving the previously unthinkable – that this same theory can also apply to men’s casual clothing. Beginning with soft but durable fabrics, their streetwear has a sporty feel and is made to last much longer than the current season.
Several celebrities and sportspeople including Ben Cousins, Benji Marshall and Prince Harry already kit themselves out in Zanerobe’s comfortable clothing, and it’s featured in fashion spreads in magazines including Cleo, FHM and Zoo. Slogans on t-shirts can often go very wrong, but by keeping it simple and sparse, Zanerobe tees are among their most popular and sharpest looking items. Other cool labels for t-shirts and comfortable clothes are: Gfunk&Batz, Das Monk and Material Boy.

This is one for the guys. One of our favourite men’s streetwear labels, Zanerobe, has just released its Fantasy League collection which is inspired by Australia’s fanatacism with sport. Well, it’s true! Designer Jonathan Yeo describes the range as ‘fun and funky’, and he’s on the ball when he say that. On the ball! Gettit. Shucks. We’ve got a little collection of eight Zanerobe goodies to give away to random Lost At E Minor subscribers who send any post on the Lost At E Minor site to one of their friends before August 25 2006 (Read more details and see the giveaway gear here). They include the Search & Rescue navy tee, the Track & Field blue hoodie and the Midtown v-neck white tee. Very cool indeed. [more about Zanerobe]

The ‘Fashion Faux Pas‘ collection from Brisbane-based Now You Own Us ‘is a collaboration of vibrant colours and impossible prints, bringing this collection into the ever so fashionable unfashionable’. Tailored boardies and satin edged cardigans demonstrate the increasingly chic direction of the label, yet it’s chic without being too smart – suited to any activity you might undertake during a long summer night.

My background is in street art and there are a lot of people historically who I’ve really liked. But in terms of new people, I particularly love the work of Brooklyn artist Judith Supine. It’s a surreal combination of old engraving art mixed with hand-drawn and painted images. He does paste up posters, but they’re not just square, they’re cut-out shapes of these interesting looking characters. The closest thing I could compare it to are the Monty Python animations.

I spent time recently in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee, enjoying fine Southern cuisine, gracious hospitality [’y'all come back now!’] and the warmth of a sun beating down like a semi-gnarled blanket. It was interesting to see the cultural values of the city; the social graces of its people which permeate every conversation. Read more

Sauerkids is Mark Moget and Taco Sipma, an artist team working out of Rotterdam, Netherlands. Their illustration work is ‘a combination of innocent childhood imagery and the mental confusion of everyday life’.
As someone who thinks more about traveling than actually gets to do it [damn, it should really be the other way around], it was good to come across the latest batch of Wallpaper* city guides the other day. Living vicariously through the pages of the Berlin edition at least made my next choice of holiday destination that much easier. Read more
In my next life, I want to sing like Frightened Rabbit frontman Scott Hutchison. Oh, and grow a lush beard, so I can play in their band. Better start cracking.
Tallest Man on Earth, the rasping Swedish folk singer-songwriter and one of the unsung heroes of 2008, recently recorded the beautiful song A Field of Birds, a nice adjunct to his summer album release, Shallow Grave. His sound is so loose and unmanicured, and carries a poignancy reminiscent of the rusty, early Bob Dylan.
