Collab Time Piece: John Fluevog + Nooka

 To continue the celebration of their 40th Anniversary, John teamed up with New York’s hottest fashion accessories brand to introduce a Numbered, Limited Edition Fluevog/Nooka Timepiece.

A watermarked Fluevog Angel is printed on the popular Nooka zot face, while the white Italian leather band features a ‘Fluevog Red’ accent stitch. The casing on the back reveals a message from John and each piece’s unique number, and is attached with one ‘Fluevog Blue’ screw for each decade the company has been in business. Lastly, twice a day at 5:15, the watch will automatically release a vibration alert to remind you to take Soul Time. The last sentence is untrue. The Limited Edition piece is sold only at the Nooka Online store, and at Fluevog stores across Canada and the United States.

($295CA/$285US, 35x35x10 mm case with 28 mm band, water resistant to 5 ATM)

Sustainable Fashion: One Black Dress for 365 Days

Starting May 2009, Sheena Matheiken pledged to wear one dress for one year as an exercise in sustainable fashion. There were 7 identical dresses for each day in the week. And each day the dress was reinvented with accessories.

Why did she do this? She created The Uniform Project to launch a one-year fundraising effort to raise money for schoolchildren living in the slums of India. As of today, she’s raised $95,089, which is estimated to help 264 kids. It also makes a hell of a statement for sustainable fashion.
