Ray-Ban Wayfarer Colorize Kit
 

1 to 3- Wayfarer Colorize Kit, Ray-Ban, including a pair of white Wayfarer, 5 special marker pens and a booklet with customization examples, 250€

Creative design blah blah, that's great and all but let's not get too grown up here and start working at an ad agency, shall we? Ray-Ban is giving out tickets for a return to the future, where our childhood naughtiness meets today's urge to customize our stuff because, y'know, we're sooo ahead of trends. So get practice on the kit and its glasses, born immaculate but bound not to stay that way for long, then grab your colored pencils and take the living room's walls by storm!

Petit Bateau 100 % Adultes
 

1- Logo on the front

2- Spring Summer 09 collection : souriceau tank top, black cotton and silk panty

3 to 6- Inside the shop

7- Transfer fishes to customize any outfit

Petit Bateau decks out its little proteges from childhood up to their adult years. It is only fitting, then, that the brand opens up its first boutique for grown-ups only. The entire store at the rue du 29 juillet has been renovated and rearranged to accomodate the homewear and outwear lines, as well as T-shirts and other creations in all manners of material, be it light jersey, linen, bamboo or organic cotton. The collections also spill out of the teenage years with the introduction of a new size, "20 ans".

The opening takes place within a rich timeframe, packed full with news: the launch of a mini-website (www.petit-bateau-mixte.fr), a touching ad campaign by Benni Valsson, a creative collaboration with designers Kitsune, not to forget a nice slice of fun in the shape of fish transfer kits to accessorize any and all outfits!

Nigh on three years: that's how long Maison Fabre had to wait before they found the perfect spot to set up their first Parisian store. But then Olivier Fabre, the fourth generation of Fabre glovers, had only one place in mind: the Palais Royal - and on the Galerie de Valois side, because it faces the sun.

Architect Guy Falco, who redesigned the workshops of the Millau headquarters in 2005, imagined a cozy  interior decoration for this space, animated by the gloves standing to attention in their backlit niches. In the windows, gloved hands, as if in conversation, catch the eye. They're like a clique of socialites at a masked ball, pointing out the passersby with insolence, parading in their glistening dresses. Once inside, the dissipation fades away as calm and subdued elegance take precedence. A long research on color was necessary to reach the perfect scheme (taupe, bronzed coffee, white and steel), one that matches the moods of the Gardens outside, their grace when the sun shines and spleen under the snow or clouds.

The perfectly organized 20 m² of Maison Fabre's first shop in Paris offer up the entirety of the brand's collections, for men, women, and kids. And if you can't find the right item among the dozens of references, it's now possible to have an individual pair made to measure.
