wellness gizmo?Buying stuff makes us all feel good, but buying Gucci's ŌURA ring won't just give you a burst of endorphins because it's a shiny new thing: it might actually make you a healthier person. ŌURA's rings are the middle ground between wellness gizmo and slick fashion flex, the latter element being the crux of the Gucci partnership.
Compared to even the most compact wellness monitoring devices (like an Apple Watch), the ŌURA rings are shockingly minute, barely taking up any more room than the average bit of jewelry (it only weighs four grams!) yet somehow packed with enough sensory tech to gauge sleep activity, heart rate, body temp, and even breathing patterns. In fact, the only difference from the base ŌURA rigs is the 18kt yellow gold trim and interlocking G branding across the ring's band. Oh, and the $950 price tag (the normal ŌURA rings are about $350). ŌURA's app then delivers what reviews call "succinct and actionable" suggestions for improving one's health. This collaborative ŌURA ring makes sense in the world of Gucci because it's all about feeling good in one's own body, beyond skin-deep. Health is a luxury, after all, so you could convincingly argue that Gucci's ŌURA ring is the pinnacle of retail therapy. WORDS BY JAKE SILBERT MORE HERE Charle new single is out on Spotify. [lyrics and link below] .ENERGY - lyrics
Thought it was forever Now I'm learning from it Thought we could be better From the day it started Made a world together And in front of our eyes We watched it fall apart Everything I wanted You could never see it Baby you're so toxic But you didn't mean it Yeah you made a promise But I can't turn back again, back again All my energy Find my inner peace Do what's good for me And I'm taking my time All my energy Find my inner peace Do what's good for me And I'm taking my time Holding onto something But I'm holding back I did it all for nothing Now I'm sick and tired of All the things you're saying And your grip on me is still to tight I'd rather fight Everytime I run right back I don't wanna leave you in the past After all this time I had your back But the weights too much I've had enough, I All my energy Find my inner peace Do what's good for me And I'm taking my time All my energy Find my inner peace Do what's good for me And I'm taking my time All this time i've tried to find The thing that makes me stronger But how could I feel alive If you just make me weaker Sleepless nights and compromise I need a fucking breather I've realised you're in disguise And now it's no surprise All my energy Find my inner peace Do what's good for me And I'm taking my time.

Tasked by Harvey Milk, a historic figure in the fight for LGBTQ rights, to create a flag for the queer community, Baker created a rainbow flag with eight different colors. Inspired by the classic song "Over the Rainbow" from the 1939 film The Wizard from Oz, Baker created a rainbow flag to represent LGBTQ folks. Each color in the flag also had a specific meaning. Hot Pink symbolizes sex Red equals life Orange symbolizes healing Yellow stands for sunlight Green represents nature Turquoise equals magic & art Indigo stands for serenity Violet represents the spirit of LGBTQ people |
