    Hot In The Hive: Rick Owens x Eastpak DRKSHDW Collection

    Lisanne Silverman on Sep 9, 2009 6:23 AM PDT
    Long ago, I resigned myself to the fact that I'd never own anything by Rick Owens. Leather jackets priced in the area of my rent just aren't going to happen, even if they're supposedly comfortable enough to live in. Not buying it, literally. So back when news broke of an upcoming Rick Owens/Eastpak collaboration, I was definitely curious, even though 1) I was more of a Jansport kid and 2) I have no use for a backpack. Fast forward to now, where the much anticipated bags are available on Oki-Ni. Consisting of sleek backpacks, computer sleeves, and duffels, the collection is pure minimalism, which is what you'd expect from bags designed by a label known for its high-end essentials. It's all in the details- instead of traditional seams, the bags are produced with a revolutionary welding technology that gives them a luxurious, uninterrupted look and feel. Basically, we're saying don't drag these on the pavement or leave your lunch leftovers in them overnight...


    Price: $113 to $292

    Go Back To School (Or Work) WIth A Stylish Backpack!

    I love tote bags as much as the next person but lugging my laptop, lunch, and other necessities to work everyday has taken a toll on my poor right shoulder. So I've started using a backpack as my day bag instead. The only one I have right now is an old North Face backpack from my high school days. It's still fully functional, but I've been looking for something a little more stylish instead of looking like I'm going off to hike a mountain. Lucky me, it seems like backpacks have become a trendy accessory with brands and designers from Kate Spade to Juicy Couture making backpacks fit for every fashionista. While backpacks can be seen most often in school hallways, chances are you'll also find people using backpacks outside of school and work. They distribute weight more evenly than large shoulder bags and leave the crook of your arm to hold more shopping bags instead! Take a look at my slideshow to see some stylish backpacks you should carry around this fall.

    They're here! Fjallraven Kanken mini backpacks! Try saying that name three times fast! Fjallraven is a Swedish company that makes durable all-purpose backpacks and the Kanken minis are especially cute because... well, they're mini! They come in a variety of colors so you can pick your favorite and they have an old school 90's feel that harks back to those elementary school days. Just remember, it's not cool unless you wear your straps on only one shoulder! The Kanken Minis hold a notebook, a few textbooks and a lunch perfectly so bring the little guy with you to school! Fjallraven is actually the Swedish word for "arctic fox" which is also the brand's logo. It was named after the arctic fox because they are known for surviving the harsh Swedish winters. These bags, made of vinylon, can also withstand some heavy handling. These petite accessories are equipped with front reflectors, a detachable inner seat pocket and a side pocket as well. The Fjallraven Kanken Mini holds exactly what you need for a hike or camping excursion and is easy to manage and access. So whatever your everyday activities consist of, pack it up and take it with you in style!


    Price: $75.00

    If you know anyone in college right now (or maybe you're a college student too), you've probably heard the stories about wild parties, spring break road trips, dreams of studying abroad, and oh yeah, going to class. Whether it's stacks of advanced chemistry books or the beginnings of the next great American novel, every college student needs a stylish yet practical bag. Just a hint- stay away from the tiny pochettes and boring looking backpacks. I've found a range of stylish tote bags, laptop bags, and backpacks that will suit even the hardest to please. Take a look at my slideshow that will bring the college student in your life to the top of the class!

    Your dear old Auntie may have told you that the road to hell is paved with good intentions. The Cringe Diary would like to think that the road to hell is paved with bad taste. Of course we think fashion should be fun, daring, and expressive, but there is a big fat line between the stylish and the tawdry. The following is a recap of the most cringe-worthy summer fashion trends for 2008. Let's hope they don't rear their ugly little heads ever again, and in the meantime, tell us...
