nooka sightings: nid and sancy


i am a fan of good experimental pop, electronica and synthpop, especially if they can put on a good live show. well, nid and sancy is one such act. they recently sent me some photos of their live set wearing their lovely nooka watches. they have a great style that is very nooka [if i do say so myself]. read more news on them at their blog here.

nooka can be found in fine stores all over europe and here. follow nooka on facebook and twitter.

nooka sightings: oh so pretty!


these photos of the adorable giorgina was sent to me by our man in the netherlands! apparently, she is one of our youngest fans. the netherlands is one market that really 'gets' nooka, and why not – they are one of the few countries that have viewed design as an important professional discipline for years. it is one of the few countries where one can receive government support to pursue purely theoretical design problems, plus they have paté american which is something you'd never find in america [it's raw beef mixed with ketchup you spread on bread in the mornings]. i'm a little jealous having to claw my way towards the top here in dog-eat-dog NYC but i am having a fun claw at it.

nooka is available at fine stores in the netherlands and here. join nooka and on facebook and nooka on twitter.

nooka press: germany AND UK



what can i say, it's nice to see such a range of magazines and readers embracing my brand – also, it's been proven in many a study, titties sell!

zon available at fine shops and here.

glow-in-the-dark aslo at fine retailers worldwide, and here.

also, slightly unrelated, but if you're on facebook, join the "Love Nooka" group!

elton john in venice





on wednesday night, i had the pleasure of seeing elton john play live in piazza san marco in venice! it was a concert to raise money for the maintenance of the square, and it was packed with over 4500 people in the open air event, just elton john, a grand piano, and the night. the last time i saw elton john was when i was still in junior high school and he performed with a full band and numerous costume changes, and i must say, seeing him perform with just his piano is preferable. he stuck to the old stuff, which was good as far as i'm concerned, and though he doesn't hit the same high notes on his recordings of the 70s, but he's still a great performer. needless to say, the setting made it all the more magical.

here are some pics, and special thanks to roberto of nooka italia for arranging the last minute trip to venice! i personally love the backlit foto of the guy with the beard in the first row.

i can write more about venice but i think wikipedia does a better job, but we had a great meal afterwards with great company.

i'd like to write about where you can buy nooka in italia but i'm still waiting for a list from roberto.....

in london now and let me say, gatwick was a nightmare....more on that later perhaps?
