Music as an Accessory? November 10, 2010

I can’t believe that someone hadn’t already come up with this!

Granted, I’m not terribly keen on sticking jewelry into my ears, I still think this is a neat idea. Designer Lee Won-Jun is responsible for the fashioning of this headphone/earring duo. We’re not entirely sure how they work—apparently by Bluetooth, but fashionable none-the-less.

What do you think of this music playing accessory?

Setting Ourselves Apart

For years, Runway Magazine has been America’s cultural barometer, putting fashion in the context of the larger world we live in- how we dress, live, socialize; what we eat, listen to, watch; who leads and inspires us.

From its beginnings to today, three central principles have set Runway Magazine apart: a commitment to visual genius, investment in storytelling that puts women at the center of the culture, and a selective, optimistic editorial eye.

Runway Magazine’s story is the story of women, of culture, of what is worth knowing and seeing, of individuality and grace, and of the steady power of earned influence. For millions of women each month, Runway Magazine Inc is the eye of the culture, inspiring and challenging them to see things differently, in both themselves and the world.
