In Technology - The Leica M9-P Edition Hermès
Leica has released a brand new limited edition, super-luxe camera in the rather superb shape of the Leica M9-P 'Edition Hermès'. The sleek and stylish hand fitted silver casing is complemented by the leather aesthetics and the two contrast each other in a magnificent way. It is the third in a line of premium Leica M-System cameras to be made in collaboration with Parisian fashion house Hermès since 2003. This fantastic looking piece of kit will only set you back around £36,000...
I stumbled across this video clip of how it was made and thought it would be fantastic to share, if you haven't seen it already here is a clip:

In Clothing - Vault Harlem
I stumbled across this when i was watching a video about Chris Brown. A guy called Lowkey was wearing a really nice baseball t-shirt with 'Vault' written on it. From then it took me about two hours to find the right Vault website.
What i found was worth the 2 hours i spent looking! Vault focuses on 'new and established streetwear, sportswear and contemporary brands'. I really admire the fact that they make their own clothes and sell other brands. Vault reflects today's street culture and is a part of their community, not to mention their clothes are sick!
In Music - Benny Banks
Another great underrated independent artist:
Benny Banks is a great up and coming independent artist that is showing real talent in the music scene. I hope to see big things from Benny this summer and cannot wait to see him support Mac Miller this month at London's HMV Forum.
Check him out -

In Music - A$AP Rocky
A$AP Rocky is a talented young rapper that has put the effort in to make it big in the underground rap scene. He started rapping when he was 8, and used the death of his brother and imprisonment of his father to motivate himself to produce real music and to become a real artist.
Some of his tunes:
A$AP Rocky - Peso
A$AP Rocky - Demons (Produced by Clams Casino)
In Clothing - XCVB
XCVB is a successful blog that also has its own clothing line. The products available currently are crewneck sweatshirts, vests, snapbacks etc. The blog is definitely unique and is a good read, however it is the clothing i'd like to talk about.
The small collection is perfect for mixing and matching outfits because all the clothes have the same great style and designs. This crewneck is also a reasonable price at £39. It is perfect to wear a snapback with and a pair of wayfarers. It gives off the real 'laid-back' look and i really think this messy look is very stylish and in at the minute. This relatively small but powerful collection of clothing will soon be expanded no doubt and lose some of its uniqueness so for me at the moment its a 10/10 buy, but with hope for the future that XCVB can release some more great looking wear.
In Accessories - Camo USA Backpack
Check out these cool backpacks available from www.Sprayground.com
These backpacks are definitely a must buy this summer, great quality combined with a really unique look. Sprayground is ever increasing in popularity so i would buy one of these ASAP!

In Music - Mac Miller
Between smoking weed and chilling with Wiz Khalifa, Mac Miller makes music... and very good music at that.
Infact, it's so good that the 20 year old's first studio album 'Blue Slide Park' debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 with first week sales of 144,000 copies. Not bad for someone who can't even drink legally yet.
