Surreal Sunday is the perfect day to redecorate with one of these awesome stone rugs made by Vienna-based designer Martina Schuhmann. All those smooth stones are actually soft felted wool, which means that they look like real stone, but are actually soft and comfy to walk on.

Each felt stone rugs is a one-of-a-kind creation. She makes felt stone cushions too! They’re all sold via Schuhumann’s flussdesign Etsy shop or available as a custom order via the flussdesign website.

Heavy denim “Starfleet” jackets

I love the clothes from Volante Design (“Superhuman Streetwear”); their latest is the “Starfleet 2364” line of men’s and women’s jackets inspired by Star Trek: The Next Generation uniforms.

The jackets are made of heavy denim and are basically extremely well-styled/tailored biker jackets (like Volante’s excellent Hacker
jackets), partially or fully unzipping them and folding down their
lapels takes them from “cosplay” to “cosplay adjacent” in an instant.
They’ve got loads of interior and exterior pockets, and are
double-stitched and come in “Command Red, Operations Gold, or Sciences
Blue,” sized 37 – 51, 55 (men), and 33 – 45 (women). They’re made in
Chicago, retail for $315, and will ship by December 14th.

CUE THE THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE: PADMÉ AMIDALA IS COMING TO THE BLACK SERIES (SPRING 2019) (x)

“Padmé is one of many figures that we will look to represent in 6-inch scale from the prequel trilogy, which over the years has seen a renewed swell of support and fandom,” Steve Evans, design director at Hasbro, exclusively tells StarWars.com. “We wanted to choose a heroic outfit for Padmé that exemplified her courage and her willingness to leave the trappings of royalty behind and get into the action. The intact Geonosian arena costume with scarf epitomized that to us — both elegant and fierce.”
