Izod Lacoste

This is an Artprint and Lacoste collaboration, Paris Vogue reports it’s a €250 ($334) complete skateboard, which includes the little Izod alligator. Supposed to be available at Colette in Paris, but doesn’t show up in the store at this point. Really, none of this surprises me at this point. Ironically, in the 80’s frat boys were often sporting Izod polo shirts as they harassed campus skate punks. Nowadays they have fratboards. The rubber mat grip tape looks kind of cool. – Thanks to Pep for the tip.

The sincerest form of flattery

Jim Phillips Fall/Winter show for 2013 has him going back to his roots as a skateboard graphic designer before he became the fashion icon that he is… Hold on a minute. What? That’s not JimPhillips? Jimbo then? No? OK. I’m sorry. This collection belongs to Jeremy Scott. [Source: Hypebeast]

It’s the socks

There’s some great skating mixed in the lifestyle/fashion shots of this promo video from a… sock company? Er.. yeah. It’a called Stance Socks. Does anyone remember that crappy magazine that Transworld published called… Transworld Stance? Does this trick have a name? Otherwise it’s what, a no-comply to tail on in a bowl?

Hard Wear in Vogue

Vogue Magazine has a spread on “model turned photographer” Hanneli Mustaparta’s “Skater Style” which isn’t really coming across in these photos, or maybe I don’t know what skater style is. These are Hanneli’s photos and/or photos of Hannah. Although her style doesn’t typically skew toward the disheveled, urban uniform of most New York City skateboarders, Hanneli Mustaparta puts her obsession with the pastime down to growing up in Norway where the sport was once illegal. “That made it mysterious and cool,” she recalls. It would be more than a little farfetched to call her polished threads rebellious, but the type of clean, modern apparel that she’s documented wearing on street-style blogs certainly make for a more unexpected approach to dressing for sidewalk surfing. “I got my first longboard back in 2008,” says Mustaparta, who uses it to glide from A to B. The article has a list of other model types or fashionistas who use a skateboard for transportation.

Has your princess stopped dressing like one?

The Star-News in Wilmington, North Carolina asks “Has your princess stopped dressing like one?” in hopes of getting you to place a classified ad for a yard sale so you can get rid of all her “pretty, fashionable clothes to make room for baggy jeans and t-shirts.” Princess doesn’t have to be worried about being embarrassed though, she’s at least a decade more mature now. Although this ad ran recently in December of 2012, the magic of Google News turned up the same advert back in 2007 and again as early as 2005! I’m not sure what I’m more surprised by, a newspaper running an 8 year old ad campaign (Newspapers dying? But they’re so current!) or the fact that Google has an archive of random newspapers. To be fair, the ad campaign is a good one, and the newspaper archive appeals to the packrat historian in me. I just wish they had better scans, and a little information about the newspaper. I’ve archived one of the ads after the jump, because you know Skate and Annoy is going to outlast this fad called Google.

Pretty Powerful

It’s Fashion day here on S&A, for no particular reason other than I have some fashion items piling up and I’m reminded of the 80’s skateboard/fashion zine out of Michigan, Stuf Magazine. From Bobbi Brown, world-famous makeup artist, Pretty Powerful is a new kind of makeup manual that starts with who you are, rather than how you look. In this book, Bobbi interviews dozens of real women, celebrities, and athletes about what beauty means to them and shows, step-by-step, how to achieve each look. Along the way, she shares her trade secrets for striking eyes, youthful skin, pretty lips, and perfect brows for any age, skin color, or beauty type. Brimming with hundreds of stunning makeover ideas, recommendations for the best tools and products, inspiring beauty stories, and expert tips not found anywhere else, Pretty Powerful is the must-have guide for lasting beauty, inside and out. Style Rumor Mag has a video of 10 girls noodling around on fancy “Pretty Powerful” skateboards. It’s pretty weak. – Thanks to Seth Levy for the tip.

Fashion. Pbbfffffft!

Near as I can tell, there’s no griptape on this skateboard collaboration between Neiman Marcus, Target, and designer Derek Lam. Kick, push, coast in style. 10 Crosby Derek Lam skateboard boasts a smart two-tone graphic logo print on top. When you pop an ollie, you’ll show a flash of the underside, which features modern graphic geometric print. 7-ply Canadian maple deck with 10C logo-print grip deck and die-cut 10 Crosby Derek Lam logo. Concave profile with rounded kick tail/nose for urban street cruising. Lightweight and maneuverable. All hardware (bolts, nuts, kingpin, washers) is golden anodized. Red, white-walled 52mm polyurethane wheels feature the 10 Crosby Derek Lam logo. Use of helmet is recommended for safety. 31 1/5″L x 8″W x 3 4/5″D. Imported. Imported you say? I wonder what exotic asian locale they used to make these props? [Source: Saint Louis Today] – Thanks to Jonathan Harms for the tip.
