9年前的7月，各位潮流達人還記得當年在銅鑼灣的駱克道上被人捉著拍照嗎？當時大家都不清楚是那一本雜誌的，直至刊出才知道是 MILK 誌；而大家還記得創刊號的封面是誰嗎？沒錯，就是容祖兒！不經不覺那就9年了，我相信還是有很多人仍儲著創刊號的。今年的7月下旨就9歲了，而 MILK 誌就找來了不同的單位、品牌合作推出一系列的9週年產品，而首個推出的就是 Manhattan Portage 的包包。

一般人聽音樂用耳機，或許沒有太大的要求，能聽清就可以了，但是對有少許要求的人，也就是懂得欣賞的用家，耳機就像是玩 HI-FI 一樣是個無底深淵，不停的升級去追求更好的音質，而且不同品牌的產品也可能是針對著某類型的音樂，單是試聽也就很令人苦惱難以決揀。除了音質以外，耳機的外型設計也越來越重要，不單看上要時尚，其方便性也是一個很令人考慮的地方，配戴舒適、容易收藏、配套齊全都是很重要的，特別是配戴方面，既要舒適隔音強勁，也不希望看到耳機線常打結，當然到今時今日都沒有一個十全十美的耳機出現，但最近收到消息 SHURE 將會推出兩款新的耳機 SE425 和 SE535，先不提它們的音質，單是看到那種可拆式的耳機線，我已能想像有多容易收藏和沒有線打結的情況。

This is the new video from the recently reunited Murderdolls with Wednesday 13 (Frankenstein Drag Queens From Planet 13) and Joey Jordison (Slipknot) coming together once more to deliver more horror style metal in the form of the upcoming Women And Children Last which will be released on 31 August 2010.

VEIL 的 ART IN EMOTION 系列內名為 GO OUT OF CONTROL 的 Tee 剛上架了，圖像看上去就像拿著酒杯，但從另一角度看時也像下方的眼晴看的折射圖般，再細心一點看，圖內更是寫著七宗罪的元素，隱隱的就像是叫我們不要貪戀杯中物而酒後亂性引繼而失控 OUT OF CONTROL！
另外，剛巧今年是電影七宗罪的15週年，設計師是否因此受影響而設計這 Tee？那要問他才知吧，不過這 Tee 都在 VEIL HK 和 Iconic-1 有售。

VEIL new tee GO OUT OF CONTROL from their ART IN EMOTION series had just been released. The graphic on the tee looks like a wineglass but also resemble the reflection line from the eye in the bottom and you may see the elements of SE7EN – the world famous film reflecting about human character from 1995. The graphic seems like showing us one message : don’t drink too much till you are OUT OF CONTROL.

大家應該沒想過小童會登陸月球吧，不過全字宙第一個成功登陸月球的小童就已經出現，不用擔心那個國家強迫小童做大空人，因為那小童就是很愛歡迎的 Hysteric Astro Mini。其實這件 Tee 是由 Hysteric 和他們的好友玩具品牌 Secret Base 共同合作的，他們為了紀念當年美國太空人成功登陸月球，於是就共同設計出這款 Tee。這 Tee 的設計一貫 Hysteric Mini 的可愛風格，配合 Secret Base 的漫畫風格，這就是 Astro Mini。

不過很可惜這件 Tee 都是只是屬於 Hysteric Mini，也就是童裝系列，不過女士也能穿的，男士只能看看的吧。

Hysteric Mini and Secret Base  had release this collaboration Tee “ASTRO MINI” commemorating the American moon landing . With the signature manga style of Secret Base infused into Hysteric Mini, this tee is for their kids line but ladies can try their hand on one if they want !

香港在這十多年來由日本買貨回港轉售、炒賣，到買取文化興起，時至今日因大公司取得代理而漸漸變得式微，也慢慢地變種為網上代訂等。以往有很多朋友喜歡去那些店搜尋一些品牌的新舊罕有款式，不論著用過與否也是爭相購入，不過近幾年，由於大公司的不斷取得更多代理權，令到這些店子經營困難慢慢地消失，只剩下的都是擁有很好信譽的店子。不過我相信仍是有很多朋友喜歡找這些新舊罕有款式的，只是都變成去日本網站或到香港某些店子進行日本代購（我們的shop madness也有這服務！）。但是最近在香港也發現了一間店子，俏俏地引進了為數不少的新舊日本品牌，也有罕有的款式，而且是全新沒著用過，最重要是價錢很合理，這間店子的名字叫作 HARAJUKULINE。
