[ uo ] pave ring


its about that time of year again... urban outfitters is having their last chance $5 sale. and as i was browsing the goods, i noticed something that looked a bit familiar...

remember the nOir jewelry animal rings? well these rings at uo are sorta similar... but only $4.99 (minus shipping+handling costs of course). not bad. i mean, yeah they aren't as well-made as the fancy shmancy ones but they're still cute. i like the duckie!

[ peter stathis ] you & me knowhere clock


gonna be heading to cali in less than a week!!! can't wait to sit on a beach and relax. and then seoul after that! which needs no explanation cus seoul = too freakin' awesomeee obviously. haha so this means i'll have been hanging out in three different time zones within the month of june. wooh!

this clock by peter stathis is perfect for keeping track of all the different time zones my friends live in. from seoul to berlin to michigan to irvine! pretty awesome. and it's completely customizable, with six different hands that you can write you and your friends names on with marker. kinda perfect for The Fam, no? and at only $22, it's affordable too! and comes in two other styles (shown below).

from left to right: one world knowhere clock, cosmos knowhere clock

[ uo ] 2 for $30 canvas sneakers

clockwise from top left: overdyed canvas skips - taupe, overdyed skips - aqua, trans canvas overdye lace ups - maroon, jewel tone canvas lace up - turquoise, trans canvas overdye lace ups - green, overdyed canvas skips - yellow

when i was in korea in summer 2009 (aka last summer), i bought some keds-like sneakers. very late 80s, early 90s... very saved by the bell. very in-at-the-moment. and super comfy! i got them for a bargain price of 18,000won (less than 18$ at that time!) in this dusty olive-taupey color that i absolutely love.

well, today i was just browsing through the urban outfitters website and found this AMAZING deal! a bunch of their women's sneakers are 2 for 30$. and it's mix and match so you can get two different styles and still get the deal! my korea-bought sneakers are on the road to retirement (theres a few holes starting up) so i'm thinking of getting the taupe. i want the yellow but the aqua are catching my eye too. decisions decisions! the colors are beautiful though, and puts me in a spring-time mood!
