Color us confused. It took Chic more than a few glances to figure out what in the world this Kidrobot creation could possibly be. While the multicolored creature looks like something straight out of Teletubbies land, the “Mr. TTT Bench” is actually a furniture-friend, perfect for the toddler in your life…or perhaps a very, very whimsical adult. THE DETAILS: Kidrobot, $650

Back in March, Bulgari announced its partnership with Brit designer Matthew Williamson for a line of handbags---and although a full presentation of the collaboration will take place in September during Milan Fashion Week, the first shots of the collection have been released. It will include three styles of calfskin bags in geometric shapes (and in his signature bright colors, like rubellite pink, emerald green and sapphire blue) and a collection of canvas tote bags in kaleidoscopic prints inspired by some of Bulgari's iconic jewelry. The capsule collection will be available at Bulgari stores in January 2011.

Tub Time

Why light candles for ambiance when all you need to do is turn on the tub? Glowing Bath, designed by student Melissa Sopel for the Reece Bathroom Innovation Award, is a white acrylic shell with LED lighting spilling out from underneath the tub. It illumates it in various hues, depending on your mood. And since no one goes anywhere without their iTouch and music library, you can even plug it into the tub so that the colors change to the beat of the song. Now if only the tub smelled as sweet as our favorite Diptyque candle...

Campaign alert! Behold a lounging Stella Tennant in the very first Reed Krakoff Fall/Winter 2010 ad campaign. Tennant and company (including Freja Beha) posed for the latest Balenciaga campaign, but we’re also loving Tennant’s latest languid look for Reed Krakoff.

Time of the Sky

Timepieces have evolved from elaborate pocketwatches to automatic wristwatches to plastic Swatches to cell phones. So imagine how pleasantly surprised we were to see this model from Japanese designer Ryohei Yoshiyuki and media artist Tomoya Kahimada called Time of the Sky II. It looks like a bracelet with a plastic square face encased in wood and set on a grey nylon band, a definite departure from the shiny metallic variety and ticking faces we wear now. Like the 24 hours of the day, the face displays 24 different colors that correspond to each heure. This is version 2.0, and the new features include a face that updates every few seconds to reveal the color of the real sky. They are even in tune to the celestial bodies: a button on the side causes a sun or moon, and its color or intensity, to be shown in the sky. The Daily is still a little befuddled as to exactly how this works and how practical it will be (how can you tell minutes or more precise increments of time?), but it certainly provides a more interesting response next time you're waiting for a late-starting show.
