Just when you thought you would never own a t-shirt with River Phoenix smokin' a rollie on it, THINK AGAIN. It's the Alphaville sale (on everything except denim and scarves). Alex and Georgie are throwing their fine retail staff to the wolves (us) again with discounts on frankly already-quite-affordable fashions.

Description:
If Alphaville told us they had a rack with 10%-off garments we'd probably pop in and fetch ourselves a bargain. And, hell, even if Alphaville put a freaking carrot on a stick and stuck it in our face while we were walking past the store, we'd be lured in anyway. So we take stupid amounts of delight to tell you that they're having Super Sale with racks up to 80% off.
Event: Sales
Stimulus: sound the horns!
Q: Why did Alphaville cross the road?
A: To make room the few dozen Jean-Luc Godard heads.
Particular television programs have forecasted the development of cryonics to preserve celebrity heads in jars. But the guys at Alphaville have faced present underdevelopment of neuropreservation and had to resort to pretending, with paper cut-outs of their beloved French director/mascot.

Alphaville is moving! More on that in a few weeks; for now the only thing any of us needs to know is they are having a huge sale. Who wants to move with a whole bunch of old clothes right? You might as well buy yourself a Reject Shop bag and shuffle around the Bourke Street Mall. This is Brunswick Street store only, cash only but not the lonely only.

George Orwell speculated our paper-less society in Nineteen Eighty Four, "The pen was an archaic instrument, seldom used even for signatures." In a world where emoticons have replaced facial expressions, we reckon Orwell was onto something. But Unfinished Notebooks by Studio Matador encourage us to preserve the art of hand-written works by fusing the work of Australian artists with bare pages begging to be scribbled on.
Good white shoes are to fashionistas what water is to farmers: a vital component for prosperity. And both farmers and fashionistas alike have witnessed a crippling drought of late. Dunlop Volleys have been dredged out from last season. Desperate people have shopped at Industrie for their white shoes.
