Ham-per-ware

Growing up, my mother treated tupperware as something precious, scarce and wonderful. Each day, before leaving, she'd look me square in the eye and say,

"Whatever you do, do not throw away the tupperware."

My dad got the same third degree, and I'm sure that Lea has to deal with it too.

And ever since, it's stuck that way. At my last apartment there was an abundance of tupperware bottoms. But a severe drought of tupperware tops.

A tupperware bottom is just like a really shitty plate.

But recently, I found deli meat that comes in tupperware. So, when you get deli meat, you also get tupperware. Fully functioning hazy-plastic clear tupperware.

And this is very, very exciting.

It's not always funny but you do get a good photo joke here and there. What the Duck!

Weekend Recap!

Yeah the blog is being ignored these days...I don't even have a good reason except for the "oh we are so busy" excuse we always use. Well it's true. The Fall collection is set to kick upscale streetwear ass, and Spring 08 is gonna make you wanna slap someone in the face.... hopefully not any of us.

In the last couple of months Vane has become a never ending hustle, no downtime, always creating. We are in constant competition with ourselves, to improve, to grow, to be creative, so that our next product is sicker than the one before. I keep telling people this but Vane is like a needy girlfriend, it requires a lot of attention, and once you move away from it even a little bit it starts falling apart right before you. So you gotta give this bitch what it needs.

Anyway we had a weekend long celebration for Meg's birthday. Had a great family style dinner and kicked it at Rbar. Here are a few pix plus some from fashion week.















Yeah she old but I'd still kick it to her.

This bridge has got style. Peru is riddled with crossings like this, and the only thing more incredible than the bridges themselves is the way that not a single native is the least bit fazed by it.
