Ear Candy

Feb 19, 2010

Sometimes it's a shame when one of the most exposed parts of the body is left bare. Doth the ear not deserve accessories? Are not earrings flattering accoutrements for almost any face shape? Do we not understand the value of beautiful sound? Of purposeful sound?

Okay, so we just waxed way poetic for a loose theme from last week: Things That Make Your Ears Happy. We received new shipments and refilled stock that many of you have been waiting for for months. Take a look, or lend us an ear!

Moxsie Urbanears Plattan Black headphonesURBANEARS - Back in stock!

Definitely one of our quickest-selling gadgets and probably one of the easiest things to gift. Our Urbanears are back in stock in every color - plus black!

If you're hard-pressed trying to justify another pair of headphones, we like to reason that cup-style headphones warm up your ears. Plus there's the whole earbuds-are-bad-for-you debate. So either you're properly preparing for awaiting the subway in winter, or you're taking preventative measures to protect your hearing for the future. Either way, you win.

That leaves us with the question, "What color?"

Moxsie Nanda Home Gauri Nanda Clocky almond alarm clock

 

NANDA HOME - Your new best frienemy!

Many of us find it hard to wake up and get out of bed in the morning. You know why? Because it is.

It's hard to get out of bed, particulary when you're cozy, there's a threat of blustery weather outside, or you just don't feel like taking on Monday.

You know what would make this all better, though? Having a wake-up buddy. Like a gym buddy, except they make you emerge from your sheets and they smile while they don't take no for an answer.

Meet Clocky, Gauri Nanda's wake-up buddy! We just got Clocky two weeks ago, and they're already selling out. Take note of these little friends - or don't. If you try to ignore Clocky and snooze his alarm, he rolls off your nightstand and swiftly out of reach. You'll just have to get up and find him from there.

But still, at least it's a friend beeping you awake in the morning.

Moxsie Pretty Little Thing Spearhead Earrings Lirany Vasquez

PRETTY LITTLE THING - Fit for big girls and little ladies.

Designer Lirany Vasquez sent us a fun mix of new Pretty Little Thing pieces. They're surprisingly wearable and would go just as well with your dainty frocks as they would with your studded leather jacket.

These Spearhead Earrings have a carefully placed pinch that'll catch the light and make 'em say, "Where'd you get those?"

Also check out our new Potluck Paris pieces - If you think your fingers need more attention than your ears, their latest batch of rings might just get the job done.

Moxsie Men's Forecast for 2010

Jan 30, 2010

Men's Fashion Week wrapped up a couple of weeks ago, and in the meantime we've finally gotten a chance to catch up on the top men's style bloggers. (Steady blog reading takes work, people!) With our powers combined, we present: Moxsie's Men's Forecast for 2010! (You can always revisit our take on Women's style for 2010 here.)

WORKING HARD, HARDLY WORKINGWhile it's key that you have the basics - well-fitted shirt, slacks, and jacket - we're going to see men's style shift more toward looser, business casual. Leisure moves in on otherwise formal territory with basic colors but more ready-to-wear pieces.

WELL EQUIPPED | Accessories are often overlooked when it comes to men's style editorial, but maybe that's because they make the mistake of thinking you already have the key essentials. Another misconception is that in order to be a well-dressed man, you have to focus on the clothes. Not true. It's just as much about what fills your pockets and how you carry your goods as it is about how your threads hang on your body.

POLISHED STREET  | There are many variations to the concept of polished street style, but what it comes down to is the details in your wares. A polished, street style-savvy man is not averse to surprise embellishments, but he is mindful that they be subtle deviations from the norm.

Moxsie Necklush Lucky Mag

Congrats to Necklush style pioneers Troy and Stephano for catching Lucky Mag's eyes!

Necklush looks like the very stylish offspring of the infinity scarf and the necklace. The accessory was conceived of by two Brooklynites--Stephano Diaz and Troy Mattison Hicks--who began selling seamless multi-loop cotton pieces on the streets of New York City in 2008.

So many awesome Moxsie designers have been featured in Lucky - Way to go, designers!

The Harbinger Co. Honeycomb NecklaceMoxsie designers just don't take a break from the business.

At least three Moxsie designers represented the Bay Area at San Francisco's first holiday Renegade Craft Fair.

Mimoco, Deux Lux, Heyday - Back in stock!

Dec 18, 2009

...And just in time for the holidays! We struck a couple deals with some elves to make sure Moxsie's hottest gifts would come back in stock for the holidays. Lo and behold, new shipments of Mimoco, Deux Lux, and Heyday, just ready for the giving:

MIMOCO in every flavor! Including Darth Maul and Hello Kitty:

Even some of us in the office have been asking the delivery trucks if anything has arrived from Deux Lux. Hands-down this season's most coveted (and hence repeatedly sold out) bag is the Deux Lux King Messenger.

Deux Lux King Messenger Purple

The latest release from Heyday has even more eye-catching contrasts than before. Consider yourself golden in the eyes of your circle's sneaker head if you hand them the new Super Shift Premiums in Emerald Python.

Make more time for family, friends, fun, and food, and get the gift hunting out of the way!

Get your head right with Ampal Creative

Dec 8, 2009

Ampal Creative Draper Chocolate
High Snobiety loves 'em. The Hundreds love 'em. And deep down inside, don't you want to be a bit of a Don Draper yourself? It'd probably be better for world peace if we could put a curb on the relationship drama, but you can't deny the amount of distinction that AskMen's Most Influential Man of 2009 carries under that hat. Ampal Creative makes "distinguished headwear for gentlemen of leisure and the ladies that intrigue us."

And just to make sure we set the record straight, ladies, don't get the impression that Ampal's creations are meant for men only. Ampal Creative wants you to feel free to wear their gear. They even rounded up their favorite females who are shakin' up the biz in a video of their latest photo shoot: & the ladies that intrigue us.
