The new collection with the Wu-Tang Clan consists of various accessories such as pendants, earrings and rings.

The 3rd Monster Regret toy was recently released on Saturday January 19th at the super chic boutique Loveless which is situated in Aoyama, Tokyo. The figure was designed by the Japanese toy designer T9G and was produced by Medicom Toy. The 3rd Monster Regret figure is quite customizable. It comes with a helmet and a plaid shirt where you can put on or take off at your pleasure. We’re not sure why but we’re in love with this figure.

The glamorous metallic style is pretty hot this year. You can easily stop the use of metallic colors in the collections of top designers such as Burberry, Prada, Chanel and Jil Sander. Sports and street fashion has also taken this cue with various footwear labels such as Puma using metallic colors on their sneakers. Now, together with Sophnet., Visvim has also created two pairs of Kiefer Hi’s using the colors metallic gold and metallic silver. The Kiefer Hi will also include a side zipper which is extra detail usually not seen on the Kiefer Hi’s. These retail for 29,400 Yen and are now available at UCS.
