2009 Thanksgifting Holiday Gift Guide: Big Sounds & Musical Gear! Plus, Vampire Weekend’s Worst & Best Gifts!
The folks at LOGO – with a little help from the fun lads of Vampire Weekend – have prepared a series of awesome holiday gift ideas to add some a little rock ‘n’ roll to your holiday shopping.
Watch the Vampire Weekend guys talk about their best and worst gifts ever above (Sorry Michael Jordan!), and then get a load of the thumping musical gear below!
Vers is a company committed to making and distributing hand crafted products, whether they’re hard wood casings for your iPhone, or, like the product in question, these energy efficient speakers for your iPod.
Stylish and compact, the Vers 2x Sound System makes it easier for you to fill up a room with music rather than unwanted stereo space. Deceptively retro yet refreshingly modern, the product comes in a variety of different colors and styles. Personal favorites are Natural Cherry and Dark Walnut (the names alone sound so GQ).
2009 Thanksgifting Holiday Gift Guide: Sir Elton’s Hot Candle, Sunglasses to Give You Wood!
We’ve got another fun Vampire Weekend video chatfest, and two more great holiday gift items, just in time for your sassy mad holiday shopping weekend. Check ‘em out below.
“Give the Elton John Candle and contribute to the fight against AIDS”
The
Elton John AIDS Foundation (EJAF), a non-profit org founded by big gay music legend Sir Elton John, teamed up with Candela to create a spice-scented holiday candle that is sold exclusively at Macy’s.
The candle sheds light on the important issue of combating HIV/AIDS.
EJAF has been working hard in the fight against AIDS since the org established in ‘92.
Buying this candle will not only brighten up your Christmas, but it will help take the fight to the next level.
Candles are $25 and a percentage of each sale is donated to EJAF.
“Hand Made from 100% sustainable wood”
Shwood is the Portland label that makes classic frames out of wood. They recently launched their latest models, the Govy and the Canby.
The Canby is super cute and a must-have piece of eyewear. It’s available in zebrawood, maple and wenge hardwood.
These glasses go for $95 each.
2009 Thanksgifting Holiday Gift Guide: Dog Portraits & Maison Martin Margiela’s Big Book
You know you know someone who would LIIIIVE for a portrait of their pooch this Xmas…
Been watching Logo and enjoying the Vampire Weekend hosted Thanksgifting Holiday Gift Guide segments? Then do come in…
Here’s more details about some high-fashion-book reading and some sweet pooch art.
The self-titled hard cover debut book by Maison Martin Margiela, this documents the works of the influential Paris-based designer, offering pictures by Margiela himself of his production in fashion, design, art and performance.
A peek inside the Maison Martin Margiela world, from the book.
Long elusive to the public eye, Margiela is a luminary in the contemporary international fashion scene, and this book offers the reader a rare glimpse into his extravagantly chic reality. The book also includes essays on Margiela by designers such as Jean-Paul Gautier and Vanessa Beecroft.
Dog Portraits
Two of Valerie Leonard’s regal pooch portraits. Amazing.
Looking for an original gift idea? How about a commissioned portrait of your pet by one of these two uber-talented artists? Valerie Leonard and Kate Williamson paint these unforgettable portraits of your pets.
Valerie Leonard’s portraits are in the style of such 18th century luminaries as Thomas Gainsborough and Joshua Reynolds, incorporating the techniques of Renaissance portraiture mastered by the above-mentioned artists to paint well-crafted, carefully detailed pictures of your pooch.
Let Kate Williamson immortalize your best friend. This one is Oliver.
Kate Williamson opts for a simpler, warmer approach, with portraits that resemble beautifully captured snapshots of your beloved pet as seen through the lens of a master illustrator. Williamson’s portraits are more modern and fresh in style, though no less skillful as those by Leonard.
Woof, indeed.
2009 Thanksgifting Holiday Gift Guide: Rock Out with Vampire Weekend, The Beatles, Lady Gaga & a Hot Camera!
NewNowNext has got some great gift ideas for this holiday season. If you’ve been watching Logo you’ve seen some of the awesome gifts we have in store, and maybe you’re psyched about the indie-group Vampire Weekend. They’re adorable!
But since it’s holiday time, we’re celebrating the band – and cool gifts – all weekend long on-air on Logo. Check out the items and the video above.
The Samsung Dual View TL225 is about $350 but it’s worth the price because it is, “twice the fun of any other camera.” If you check out the specs on the cam, you’ll be impressed. This hot pick is for technology savvy individuals only. Is that you?
Say Cheese!
More cool gift ideas after the jump!
2009 Thanksgifting Holiday Gift Guide: Lady Gaga Mega Gift Package!
“Fa la la la la, la ga ga ga!”
You can catch Lady Gaga everywhere these days, from big gay National Equality Marches, to videos with Beyonce and appearances on Gossip Girl. You feel like you’ve had enough Gaga, don’t you? Well, you haven’t, at least not yet, because the perfect item for your Xmas list or to perhaps give someone else is a personal piece of Gaga.
Gaga puts a bow on it this Xmas. Snap!
As you know, Lady Gaga’s Fame Monster album yesterday in a Standard Edition and if you didn’t pre-order it, you should probably make a run to the iTunes music store asap.
