Vinyl Fancy

If you’re heading out for a night on the town, and can’t find anything glitzy in your closet, would you want to slip into some vinyl? This dress, made by Maison Martin Margiela, is made from old 33 and 45 vinyl records. Vinyl may not be slimming, but since the records were heat-modelled to contour the body, these old records could potentially be rather flattering… And at $8,775 I would hope you’d look damn good in it.

Phone Bones

Colette’s adorable mascots, Caperino and Peperone, are two black critters that obviously have a flair for bone-shaped phones. These sculptural speakers cost a lot more than dog food though, so you can look but you can’t fetch these babies.

These little piggies aren’t coin depositories, so don’t try sliding any coins into their backsides… Instead, plug your jack into its back! For $49, this ceramic Pig Speaker will play your tunes through its adorable bell.

Stand Up Straight

A new year never feels completely New until you find a perfect calendar to keep track of your days. This one by Atherton Lin is truly spectacular and worthy of 2010.

The watercolour illustrations look like they come from a children’s book, but the themes are more grown up, such as ennui or getting the hots. Starting with a New Year’s resolution — to stand up straight — we follow the six nameless characters through 12 months of letter writing, music mixes, childhood fears, old stereo equipment and perhaps a parallel universe.

Get one here for only $8.25 (half price!)
