My newest obsession over the past couple of months has only been accumulating zeal with time and I now feel the need to share it publicly, and I hope that this spreading of love will alleviate my growing fixation.

Husband and wife team, Leah Yin and Timothy Sokol are both graduates from Emily Carr Institute of Art Media and Design and presently the owners of Vancouver’s only store (part of a small BC franchise) called […]

I’ve setup a snazzy Video for WBR. If it all goes well and, most importantly, if you are excited about this trial pilot feature, we’ll try to whip it up for ya on a regular basis. It’s a video my peers and I have been working on (each doing our bit to help out, while […]

To the taunt beats and turgid loops of DJ Mike Louw in the cool night air, September 21st saw the opening of Hot Box Accessories Inc.. at 2560 Main St. The opening was also an ‘R’ Rated-for-Nudity fashion show aptly named “Bare Accessories Fall Fashion Show”.
