Return Of The Lego

In the past year I’ve noticed that Lego’s are making a come back. My favorite toy of all time is back but in a way I never would have imagined. The influence of the Dannish toy is seen all over from furniture, art, even fashion.
My personal favorite are these Jean-Claude De Castelbajac watches.
X-Mast is coming, hint !!! hint !!!

Ode To My Bag

I've had this M0851 bag for over 2 years now. It's aged beautifully, the leather darkened, yet retaining its shape. This bag brings me everywhere from weekends up north and NYC, from work to shopping (i don't like plastic bags). I have several bags but none give me the joy this particular one does. best part is that they are all made in Montreal.

M0851 is having a sample sale.

Its Christmas party time all over again. What to wear? OMG shoes! You need to make an impact and you must look better than everyone else at work. If you want to be the belle or beau of the ball, trust VELENO.

Working with your budget, taste, and event we will do all the shopping and styling for you.

This is a recent photo shoot i worked on. Thank you Gabriel ( model) and the fabulous photographer Nic Small.

Retro Chairs

Veleno is proud to present its new furniture entry. I came upon these retro chairs a few months back. They were in a very bad state, having probably spent the last 25 years in a dusty dirty basement. I've restored them to the best of my abilities. They were made in Montreal back in the 60's. The orange chair is a little damage but still in good condition.

I want to sell the pair for $80, if anyone is interested contact me.

Alice

I've always been a fan of Alice in Wonderland. Controversial since its first publication in 1865. It tells the story of a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar and anthropomorphic creatures.

When logic and proportion

Have fallen sloppy dead,

And the White Knight is talking backwards

And the Red Queen's "off with her head!"

Remember what the dormouse said

Feed your head

Feed your head

(Grace Slick, 1966)

The movie is only coming out in March 2010 but I just can't wait. I've been languishing since I found out back in Feb. Who could ask for more than a Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland featuring Johnny Depp?
