STILL ILL: THE STYLE DIARY OF PAUL MASON
Rescue’s very own Paul Mason is now writing his own personal style blog. Full of his favorite outfits, inspirations and style icons. A must read for anyone who comes in the store and admires his ability to put an outfit together (i.e. everyone!).
BACKWARDS BY BLACK MARBLE
Sick new video by old friends of the store BLACK MARBLE. Their new record is out now on Hardly Art and it’s one of our favorite things ever! If you see them live, be sure to ask Ty about the amazing vintage Madonna shirt he picked up at Rescue three years ago…
CREEPY CREEPERS
Paul really loves these Bottega Veneta creepers, which at $5,300 are just a tad out of his price range. I suggested he check out Underground Shoes since I have three pairs of their creepers and two pairs of their winklepickers. They’re kind of the best in the biz, if you ask me. And at about $150-200 a pair, he could buy every style they have in stock and still not spend as much as he...

INSANE ART BY BRIAN DETTMER
How sick are these book sculptures by Brian Dettmer? Using knives, tweezers and surgical tools, he carves one page at a time and turns these old medical journals and encyclopedias into completely new and incredible sculptures.
“My work is a collaboration with the existing material and its past creators and the completed pieces expose new relationships of the book’s internal...

HELMUT LANG FALL 2012
We think Nicole and Michael Colovos have done an amazing job since they took over at Helmut Lang and the new fall line is no exception. They have consistently created interesting yet wearable (and, dare we say, moderately affordable) pieces that have their own recognizable aesthetic, while still being perfect for mixing with different styles. The leather jacket in the bottom right picture is...

FINALLY AN OMBRE I CAN RELATE TO
Found this super hot chick from a Chicago Street Style post and now I can’t get her hair out of my mind… I love the extremely trendy ombre/balayge haircolors floating around out there but the idea of light brown and blonde hair has never appealed to me personally. This, however, I can totally get down with.

CHEYNEY THOMPSON
Cheyney Thompson (b. 1975, Baton Rouge, LA) has made the technology, production, and distribution of painting the subject of his work for over a decade. Thompson employs rational structures, technological processes, and generative devices as part of “thinking through problems that organize themselves around the terms of painting.” With such a rigorous approach to the medium, Thompson produces...
