Krink is practically shorthand for graffiti–the scribbles you see covering walls and street corners are more likely than not with the help of the US-based brand’s markers and inks.

And Marc Jacobs is practically shorthand for cool–just about everything that comes from the designer, be it Marc, Marc by Marc, or Bookmarc, lands immediately on our must-have list.

So when the two join forces? Yeah, we’re pretty stoked. The two are collaborating on a three-piece collection, featuring a K-12 Paint Marker, a K-47 Permanent Ink Marker, and a K-60 Paint Marker. Nothing tops $14, so you can get a little bit of designer without breaking the bank. Breaking the law? Well, all we can say is be careful.

Justin Randall (lol) Timberlake was born on January 31, 1981. In case you’re bad at math, JT is 32 years-old.

We’ve watched him go from the Mickey Mouse Club to NSYNC to whatever adult-ish stuff he’s up to these days like making a new album that drops on March 19th and being married to Jessica Biel. Happy Birthday to you, Justin Timberlake. As far as we’re concerned, you’ll never need to Justify a darn thing.—RAY SIEGEL

Fashion and art go hand in hand, and Calvin Klein’s visual team is well aware of that: The Calvin Klein Collection’s flagship store on Madison Avenue is complementing their 2013 resort collection with eight watercolor works from British artist Tim Furzer’s “Unified Theory” series.

The idea to collaborate came about during the team’s visit to Furzer’s house in Long Island for a photoshoot. They saw a couple of paintings from the series, and according to him, “it all took off from there.”

Our writer in Orange County, Ashton Spatz, found this cute little guy while walking to work last week.

Awww!

He’s so cute and splatty.

(No, splatty is not a word.  But you know exactly what we mean.)

“Dear Faran,

This is something I found while walking through a tiny alley in downtown Pullman, WA.

I think this is the classiest giraffe I’ve seen in a while.

Toodles!
