		<description><![CDATA[An article in The New York Times today highlights the increasing tendency of teenagers to greet each other by hugging, to the bewilderment of their parents, who are more accustomed to handshakes. Not just limited to family, good friends, and lovers, hugging has become a standard way to say hi in high school hallways. There are even distinct varieties of hug:
There is the basic friend hug, probably the most popular, and the bear hug, of course. But now there is also the bear claw, when a boy embraces a girl awkwardly with his elbows poking out. There is the hug [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The anticipated collaboration between architect Zaha Hadid and sportswear brand Lacoste has finally taken shape, and it doesn&#8217;t disappoint. The shoes, rubberized structures that wrap around the leg (angle high for men and calf high for women) are as conceptual and beautiful as Hadid&#8217;s architectural creations themselves.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s hard to get kids to see the joy in cooking when they could just drive through McDonald&#8217;s and get a happy meal with a toy for no effort whatsoever. In Japan, there are whole lines of entertaining cooking tools that are great for even big people taking on the skillet. CScout Japan profiles several of them, including a sushi roller, a mini sandwich maker, and one fun contraption that looks like a game of Mouse Trap:
Somen (thin noodles eaten chilled during the summer months), when served nagashi-style, are sent down a bamboo chute. During the course of the journey [...]]]></description>

Medicom has produced a set of Where the Wild Things Are figurines, including a range of wild things creatures as well as the hero Max himself. The vinyl toys will be available in Fall 2009 &#8211; just in time for the movie release.

		<description><![CDATA[The fashion designer who brought &#8220;trucker chic&#8221; to the mainstream is now producing wine &#8211; and sources say it might actually be quite good. Ed Hardy is known mainly for loud, graffitied t-shirts, trucker hats, and jeans worn by the likes of Britney Spears (and her kids), but designer Christian Audigier is now betting that his very recognizable brand will help push bottles too.

Following its string of extremely successful designer collaborations over the past few years, hopefully this will be one more step toward mainstreaming ethically sound consumerism.

And we actually like how wearable and unpretentious Kidrobot&#8217;s new &#8220;KidPunk&#8221; line is, even if they do describe it as &#8220;combining 80&#8217;s punk edginess with KidRobot fun.&#8221;

		<description><![CDATA[As we mentioned, the Vice Magazine fashion issue (pig and all) has hit the streets and as always, it&#8217;s a great read. In their city-vs.-city matchup, the magazine makes some bold claims about what&#8217;s in and what&#8217;s out across the globe. In a nutshell, it boils down to this:

Girls in NYC are sluts; boys are rockabilly
In Stokholm the boys are Xanax incarnate; girls don&#8217;t care
In Barcelona boys are dressing like girls and girls are dressing like boys
Melbourne boys are dressing up in a retro kind of way, and the girls are just copying years&#8217; old trends
Girls in Montreal are cute [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is so much serious, snooty editorial about fashion, we always appreciate when Vice comes out with its Fashion issue. Their most recent is no different. From the interview which hails Kai Kühne as a renegade fashion star before getting him to admit that he doesn&#8217;t understand fashion, to the article which claims in all seriousness that epaulettes (those ornament-like shoulder accessories on army uniforms) are the future of fashion, to the amazing cover featuring a wild pig (see above), the whole thing is a breath of fresh air.

But soon you may be able to actually feel what&#8217;s going on in the movies &#8211; perhaps a Michael Bay explosion or an Angelina Jolie drop kick&#8230;or even better, to experience a real emotional reaction based not just on what you&#8217;re seeing in a movie, but on on actual physical stimulus.

The shop is the brainchild of high-end childrenswear designers Bonpoint, who decided to use their fashion industry muscles to do a little good in the world. They&#8217;ve stocked their store with custom pieces by some of the world&#8217;s most coveted designers, donating 100% of the profit to a children&#8217;s cause in Madagascar (does anyone know which one? Would love a link).

		<description><![CDATA[The one-for-one model isn&#8217;t working so well for OLPC, but it&#8217;s doing wonders for a small company called TOMS Shoes, which donates one pair of shoes for every pair sold. The shoes have a distinctly traditional look to them (they&#8217;re modeled after the traditional Argentinian alpargata, a simple slip-on canvas shoe), but they&#8217;ve certainly crossed over into the mainstream. As TOMS preps to launch its most recent design collaboration with Element Skateboards, PSFK talks to founder Blake Mycoskie about where the company came from, and where it&#8217;s going.

		<description><![CDATA[Just in time for summer (or at least in time to long for summer as the snow continues to fall) the old 80&#8217;s staple Minnetonka Moccasins are back. Possibly to replace the ubiquitous ballet slippers of the past several years.

		<description><![CDATA[According to the National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (NESTA), creative professions will soon outstrip the financial sector in the UK. The organization&#8217;s research indicates that by 2013, the creative industry, which includes film, music, fashion, TV and video games production, will employ 1.3 million people &#8211; or 100,000 more people than the financial industry &#8211; growing at an average of 4% annually, more than double that of the national economy.

		<description><![CDATA[Valet Mag has a nice visual spread of the best men&#8217;s collections from the recently wrapped up New York Fashion Week. Most notable trend seems to be the lack of consistency between one show and the next, with style trends hardly discernable.
Marc Jacobs played it retro with quirky additions and something of a hip hop vibe.
Rag and Bone went simple and clean in shades of black and grey.
And Ducky Brown seemed uncharacteristically deconstructed, more like something you&#8217;d see from Comme des Garcons.

		<description><![CDATA[Diesel has just opened its largest store ever on Fifth Avenue in NYC, an event obviously several years in the making, but which comes at a time when brands are canceling their runway shows and store closures are a dime a dozen. Diesel&#8217;s new store boasts &#8220;over 700 different denim styles and washes on every floor&#8221; and it makes you think if this store is going to be able to move all that merchandise, or if it&#8217;s just a brand play that will have residual effects on worldwide sales.
Maybe even more interesting, the window displays at Diesel Planet, as the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Snuggie is a simple fleece blanket with arm holes, perfect for reading, easy remote control handling, or dog petting without catching a draft.  Launched nationally in October, the Snuggie has already sold over 4 million units (in the middle of the worst economy since The Great Depression) according to Ad Age. Clever and comfortable in design as it is, the Snuggie is not for everyone. Aesthetics aside (although aesthetics are sure to turn off many), the Snuggie is made of &#8220;super soft, luxurious fleece&#8221; &#8211; probably not the most sustainable material, nor the highest quality.
