We all have our days when we forget to charge our phones, or simply exploit its battery power to the limit, and then end up offline, as it were. This is soon to become a problem of the past though because a French telecom company, called Orange, has big plans to save us all from the low-battery blues.

Yay, science. The guys over at Continuum fashion have made the world’s first ready-to-wear, completely 3D printed bikini. It’s called the N12, and it’s pretty cool. Above and beyond it being a sexy-looking bikini, the whole thing is made up of 3D printed pieces that snap together like lego.

23 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Maybe it is time for Karl Lagerfeld to stop being weird. If it is not making a life-size, chocolate sculpture of his boyfriend six decades younger than him, then it’s fashion fails like this. The male “urban turban”, also known as the “murban” is what Karl is hoping metrosexuals worldwide will be sporting this winter. Pic of bf Baptiste Giabiconi wearing one inside.

06 May 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
At approximately this time last week, Seth Rotherham, Bruce Good and I were taking in the Royal Wedding at the 2oceansvibe Media Compound when we noticed something odd. What was it? It was Princess Beatrice’s hat of course. SilverStreak has already alluded to its ridiculousness this morning. Now it’s become a Photoshop hit too.

The Vagipenis. Take A look!
26 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 2 Comments
When Cleo Australia decided to name their 50 most eligible bachelors, they thought that it would be a good idea to have a man standing next to two hot women, with his bulging tackle only contained by a pair of gold pants. The only problem is that what was created was a “vagipenis”.

Probably The Most Important Thing You Will Read This Month
22 Apr 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
2oceansvibe had to turn down business from two different brands this last week. A lot of the haters out there don’t realise that. They don’t think it happens. It does. Constantly. That is why the lovers keep coming back here – because any exposure for any brand is genuine and they don’t mind the advertising. […]

06 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Wow! Okay. Last week we told you about the ‘Get An Eckō Tattoo, Get A 20% Discount For Life’ they’re peddling, with a couple of metaphorical raised eyebrows. So they sent us a couple of photos of fans that had gotten themselves branded with their logo – bluff called. Amazing.

01 Apr 2011 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
This sounds sort of like every dystopian sci-fi film ever, but okay. If, for whatever reason, you felt like you needed 20% off of Eckō-brand apparel for life, you could totally make that happen by getting an Eckō tattoo somewhere on your body. It’s a coupon that never expires!

Many a talk show will tell you that kids are growing up too fast these days, with little girls dressing “sexy”, and “Brat” dolls that might be borderline inappropriate for children.

Al Qaeda Launches Women’s Glossy Magazine
15 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Clearly not satisfied with the launch of their English magazine, Inspire, which first appeared about nine months ago, and included a feature called “How to make a bomb in the kitchen of your Mom”, al Qaeda’s media arm has followed up with a magazine for women, titled “Al-Shamikha”. Apparently the editorial team will be mixing beauty tips with lessons in jihad. No spice.

Candice Swanepoel Cameos In Fashion Week Girls’ Music Video
14 Mar 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
I don’t blame you if that headline seems confusing. There are way too many “wow-factor” words launching at your face at once. It seems impossible and your brain actually shuts down for a moment – an early warning system our bodies have developed over centuries – stopping our heads from exploding. Some of you might […]

We love a good mug shot here over at 2oceansvibe. Paris Hilton’s array still being amongst our favourites, admittedly, but this dude is rolling with quite a mesmerising vibe. Half a ‘fro actually. We’re sure there’ll be a couple of guys on the inside having a good laugh at his expense.

The last time I went to the Puma Social Club in Cape Town, I went head-to-head with Herschelle Gibbs – table tennis bat in my one hand, cold brewskie in the other. Hot babes all over my stick. Because that’s how you roll at the Puma Social Club. I’d kill to check out the one […]

The Burqa Ban Deadline Is Fast Approaching
07 Mar 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The French are preparing to sail themselves into unchartered waters when the ban on wearing the Muslim burqa and other Islamic face coverings in public places comes into effect in just over a month. Racial tensions in that country have already begun to boil with the John Galliano “I love Hitler” incident. This will be interesting.

I’ve been rolling with a new range of golf shirts of late, thanks to Merchants On Long. You might have seen them before – with the embroided warrior, raising his shield.

Imprinted Thighs: This Is Probably Monday Morning Badvertising
28 Feb 2011 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
A couple of benches in New Zealand were altered to imprint advertising for Superette short shorts on the back of people’s thighs. This is creepy on a couple of levels, but I’m mostly curious as to how somebody could get the back of their thighs stamped with words and not notice.
