Don't Let Me Get In My Zone

Ever wanted to stop Kanye from getting in his proverbial "zone"?

Well, it appears Otter Spice Productions have answered your prayers with Kanye Zone, an online game that lets you hit Mr West in the head so as to prevent him from getting into his "zone".

Quoting Jay Z and Kanye West's "Niggas in Paris" with "Don't Let Me Get In My Zone", players have to block Kanye from getting into his zone using arrow keys where the goal is to blow his head up - by doing so, Kanye wails his signature "Nehh!". The longer you keep him out of his zone, the more cash you will make. However, if Kanye reaches his zone, you'll hear the dreaded words, "I'm definitely in my zone!"

So, there you have it folks - now run along and stop Kanye from getting into his zone.

Labour Day Looks

Today, in the Australian states of Victoria and Tasmania, we celebrate the public holiday, Labour Day (or in the latter case, Eight Hours Day). I can't think of any better day to shop for the latest trends online, particularly after the conclusion of the recent international fashion weeks. It's time to spend that hard earned money on Bold Blocking, Polished Minimalism, Stepford Prints and Downtown Chic.

The final page includes some of my favourite quotes from this year's collections, from bloggers to editors - ENJOY!

All pieces available @ Net-A-Porter.

Oh, The Places You'll Go at Burning Man

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

This videos down the rounds since its release a month ago but it's too good not to share on Dr. S's b'day. Based on Dr. Seuss's final book before his death, this is a story about life's ups and downs, told by the people of Burning Man 2011.
