Heys Latest - Goodbye Boring Luggages

I had no idea?!
Heys produced the Olympic Team luggage for Sochi 2014 - cool, eh?

I've always been a fan of Heys products especially their luggages. Check out my past postings here. If you're planning on any travelling or in the market for a new luggage, make sure to check out Heys!

Heys' luggages are always so interesting and cool looking - my kind of style. I like not only the design thinking behind the luggages, ie. Lightweight Pro and the Smart Luggage, but also love the design/creatives printed on them. Say goodbye to boring luggages, time to stand out from the the crowd and travel in style!

Check out some of my fav and latest luggages from Heys - they're just so fun! I might just have to pick one up, but so hard to decide. Also, don't you think it's kind of a shame to only use them only for travelling/vacations purposes? I think we should start a trend and use them (the carry-on size) more often like when going out to do your groceries or shopping at the malls - why not, right? : )

Below are a limited edition Series of luggage created by Canadian designer Karim Rashid - Organik Set. It's imprinted with his signature style of hypnotic colourful swirls. He referred as a "digipop" pattern, the graphic aims to embody his visualisation of the global information age through its sound-wave light aesthetic. They will be available exclusively at Sears in March 2014 or online through Heys.

Below are luggages created by Brazilian-born renowned digital artist/illustrator Fernando Volken Togni - World Map & The Cities. His intricate compositions and bold use of colour are influenced by the observation of details and daily life. Through vivid colours and sharp shapes, Fernando forms an eye catching organized chaos.

World Map Set - designed to showcase different parts of the world, and when
put side by side, the entire set form the full world map!

Cities Set - designed to celebrate 3 famous cities: New York, London and Paris.

FVT by Heys - Limited Edition Luggage

If you're in and around Toronto, I'm sure you've noticed all the billboards, subways and bus shelter ads from Heys. It's for their latest luggage - a limited edition series of luggage created by artist/illustrator Fernando Volken Togni. I'm a fan of his work. I love the look and style - it's my kind of luggage!

I really like the design especially the Canadian theme! I love the colours and all the icons/landmarks used that represent Canada. Canadian pride indeed! It's so fun and definitely a stand out! You can get them exclusively at the Bay or from their website. Anyone want to share the 3 piece set? : )

 

I'm a fan of Heys. You can always count on them to travel in style! What do you guys think of this latest luggage?

The Oscar Statue

For all the movie buffs out there, I'm sure like me, is counting down to the Oscars. The 85th annual Academy Awards will be on Sunday February, 24!

To be honest, I don't really have any favourites this year. Out of the 9 Best Picture, I have still yet to see Amour, Argo, Lincoln or Beasts of the Southern Wild. Click here to see all of this year's nominations.  Let me know, who are your picks?

I do have my predictions - let's see how many I'll get right : )

Best Picture - Argo

Best Actor - Daniel Day-Lewis for Lincoln

Best Actress - Jessica Chastain for Zero Dark Thirty

Best Supporting Actor - Christoph Waltz for Django Unchained

Best Supporting Actress - Anne Hathaway for Les Miserables

Best Director - Steven Spielberg for Lincoln

No matter who wins, I hope it will be a good show - I am very looking forward to see Seth MacFarlane, who will be hosting the event. Will you be watching?

Check out this very cool poster that was made as a tribute to all the Oscar winners. It was illustrated by graphic designer Olly Moss. Look closely, it features the best films in the form of the Oscar statue for the past 84 years.
