Seems link Uncle Karl likes feathers and antique keys as much as we do. Chanel built a version of a Marie Antoinette’s barnyard in the Grand Palais to present his Spring Summer 2010 collection. Katy Perry was decked out in feathers and Uncle Karl wore an amazing key and chain around his neck.

Want the look? We have designed a new necklace four our Penny Darling line. We have pulled inspiration from the Chanel feather embellished outfit worn by Katy and the chains worn by Uncle Karl. Even better, it's on sale this week for $26.00


Check out our two new designs for sale on our Etsy shop.

New color in the Air

TCH Curated In-Flight Experience
July 28 2009 *Repost from www.thecoolhunter.com


Strangely, airlines and airplanes and air travel continue to still look pretty much the same, no matter which airline you fly. In fact, most of us would say that the in-flight experience is getting worse each day. Premium-class prices warrant a slightly more tolerable experience, but it is still tough to really tell one experience from the other.



An airplane is of course transportation, and not a hotel, spa or restaurant, but we have been waiting for a long time for the first airline that is willing to embark on true differentiation. Taking cues from cool architecture, leading-edge design and the vibes we see ahead of, and outside of, trends, The Coolhunter is now working on creating truly cool airline experiences, giving premium-class passengers a real reason to select one airline over another.



Absolutely everything— from the on-board entertainment, furnishings and decor, to exclusive on-board shopping — will be curated by TCH. Rather than being mundane, boring and almost same as all other airlines, the TCH-curated in-flight experience will be really something worth talking about. Each flight will be different, each experience more surprising and exquisite. Airliners who want to ad value to their inflight experience, can contact catherine@thecoolhunter.net or bill@thecoolhunter.net
