A while ago I wrote about Bojana Borak and her fashion label BokicaBo and how I had fallen in love with her debut collection and especially a pair of trousers. I was so fond of them that I got in contact with Bojana. We exchanged some emails, made some arrangements, came to an agreement and a few weeks later I received a pair of unique custom made BokicaBo trousers!
Above photo doesn’t do them justice.
They are amazing.
A huge amounts of love to Bojana.
She’s amazing.
The best conversations
you will ever have
will happen
on a front porch
just before dawn.You will be wearing your socks
cut off shorts
and wondering if you should
hold out for breakfast.

The idea of a geek-cage in the garden is quite intriguing.

The first time I heard Flight of the Conchords was a few years back while driving up to Newcastle. It was a recoding of their BBC radio series. As I remember it, it was about the band trying to make it in London.
Since then they have moved on quite a bit. Regarding success. TV series, world tours and feature in movies. The concept of the show, humour, characters and topics have remained rather similar.
I went with Henrik Engdahl. We probably had the best seats at the venue. Row 7 in the middle. Unfortunately we had a girl sitting right behind us who obviously had a big crush on the guys on stage, and was constantly trying to catch their attention by laughing hysterically even when they weren’t making jokes. Rather annoying. But what can one do? You can’t ask someone to laugh less on a comedy show… not matter how warranted it is.
The warm-up act was Arj Barker and he went down well. He’s coming back to Stockholm later this year to do a performance at Söder Teatern. If I’m in town, I’m going.
The Flight of the Conchords were good. At times they leave you wondering how much of the performance is a routine and how much of it is just them sitting on stage improvising. Are they a band with funny talk between songs or are they a comedy act doing songs? Don’t think there is (or need of) an answer to that, but it makes you wonder.
Over the course of the evening they have a few less funny passages of rambling, but, whenever they had a low, they picked it up and made the low a thing of the past.
Holidaze, the latest collection from Social Suicide, is not “only” supreme in quality and excessive in it’s attention to details. It’s also very playful, innovative and inspiring.
Each jackets have the same printed viscose gingham and polkadot linings that conceal chess and backgammon boards, sudoku, word search, tick-tack-toe and weiki. They pack into their own arms for travel and shoulder straps that double as score strips. They have a sunglass pocket that is lined with micofibre and closed with a magnet; a special holiday novel pocket; and a metal lined pocket that cuts your mobile’s reception for that “out of the office” feeling.
Yeah, I know.
Get one.
