CB2 x Fred Segal Debut New Fantastic Furniture Collaboration Today

In the interior design world, we freely admit that inspiration for home trends often comes from fashion. That there is a strong relationship between the two industries is obvious when you think about it. Style-conscious people want equally stylish homes. Collaborations between fashion designers and furniture companies is nothing new. But when celebrity-favorite, laid back LA fashion hot spot Fred Segal decided to branch out into home decor – something truly special was created. Partnering up with CB2, a whole new collection has been created and it’s exactly what your home has been craving.

Launching this month, the CB2 x Fred Segal line beautifully blends the relaxed California vibe of Fred Segal with the thoughtful nod to mid-century modern we all know and love from CB2. The collection has everything your home could need, right down to a stylish tape dispenser. Each piece in the collection is such a beautiful, seamless blend of both companies, you wonder why they didn’t join up sooner.

A trend setter in fashion, Fred Segal keeps it up with this new line for the home. They kept the classic, modern-lined furniture CB2 is known for and redesigned it with today’s hottest materials and finishes, like the Silas Barstool which features a woven natural rattan seat. The collection also shows us that what’s old is new again with the Acrylic Coffee Table with Storage – a beautifully simple wood storage box that sits inside of an acrylic frame. Acrylic was hot in the 60’s and it’s made a big comeback in 2017.

Brass is also big this year and this CB2 x Fred Segal collaboration shows us why. With it’s deep hue and rich shine, brass is a perfect accent metal for a sophisticated masculine look. This line features a complete office set all in solid brass. From the aforementioned tape dispenser to a letter box and even a pair of rulers, the set has everything you need for a sleek and stylish office space.

Of course no Fred Segal home decor line would be complete without a few whimsical pieces and this line delivers. From the Pop Art Mirror shaped like a rainbow to the Fresh Cut Side Table with a pineapple-shaped base to the surprisingly elegant Ocean Palm Floor Lamp with globe lights that resemble coconuts – these pieces bring a California surfer vibe to the collection. Neon lights are still a big trend in home decor and Fred Segal’s motto “love one another” is represented in their white neon heart-shaped wall light.

The CB2 x Fred Segal collection is available starting August 3rd and can be found in CB2 stores or online at CB2.com.

The best Super Bowl games in NFL history: Unforgettable victories and moments
These are the unforgettable games in the Super Bowl's history
Old NFL games

For the majority of the people who watch the Super Bowl every February, the biggest game of the year is about the entertainment and the spectacle. Halftime shows take precedence over first downs. Celebrity-filled commercials are front and center instead of X's and O's. It's hard for true NFL diehards to block out the noise and focus on just the game. Football purists probably wish the Super Bowl hadn't evolved into something so much bigger than what's on the gridiron, and we have those people covered.

There have been plenty of great Super Bowls throughout the years based strictly on the play on the field. Incredible athletes like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Patrick Mahomes put on a show and demonstrate their killer instincts when competing for the NFL's ultimate prize. We have the eight best Super Bowl games of all time stacked up right here for your perfect trip down memory lane. Put down the snacks and start doing your football homework with us right here.
What are the best Super Bowls of all time?

8. Super Bowl LVIII: Kansas City Chiefs 25, San Francisco 49ers 22 (OT)
The second matchup between the Chiefs and the Niners in the last decade didn't disappoint. San Francisco's rushing attack and stout defense, led by Christian McCaffrey and Nick Bosa, were able to play the Kansas City dynasty to a standstill for 60 minutes. In only the second overtime game in Super Bowl history, Patrick Mahomes was able to respond to a Niners' field goal with a touchdown to close the game and a second consecutive championship.
7. Super Bowl LI: New England Patriots 34, Atlanta Falcons 28
The New England Patriots made their six Super Bowls look easy most of the time, but the fifth title against the Atlanta Falcons was anything but simple. Down 28-3 with only two minutes and change left in the third quarter, Tom Brady went to work with a furious comeback for the history books. A 31-0 run in the fourth quarter and overtime allowed the Pats to win arguably the most improbable championship of their dominance (there was another incomprehensible win we'll get to later on.)
6. Super Bowl XIII: Pittsburgh Steelers 35, Dallas Cowboys 31
With two big-name franchises like the Steelers and the Cowboys headlining this matchup, Super Bowl XIII was able to live up to all of its potential. Terry Bradshaw was usually known as a game manager at quarterback, but his four touchdown passes in this contest proved the doubters wrong. Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach did everything he could to compete with the Steelers but came up just short.
5. Super Bowl XLIII: Pittsburgh Steelers 27, Arizona Cardinals 23
Pittsburgh's sixth Super Bowl win was a jaw-dropping highlight tape of incredible plays and thrilling athletic feats. From James Harrison's 100-yard interception to Santonio Holmes' game-winning touchdown with under a minute left, the Steelers showed they possessed the playmakers to overcome Arizona's Larry Fitzgerald and Kurt Warner. Arizona has not reached the Super Bowl again since this game.
4. Super Bowl XXXII: Denver Broncos 31, Green Bay Packers 24
John Elway's first Super Bowl win after years of disappointment made him a sentimental favorite of NFL fans all across the country. Super Bowl XXXII was about much more than defeating those demons, though. Running back Terrell Davis ran roughshod over the Packers with 157 yards on the ground. Green Bay was never able to reach the Super Bowl again with Brett Favre as quarterback.
3. Super Bowl XXV: New York Giants 20, Buffalo Bills 19
Buffalo's string of Super Bowl losses in the 1990s came in a variety of ways. The 1991 defeat to the New York Giants was a crushing one because of a simple missed kick by Scott Norwood. The game leading up to this moment was a beautiful contrast of styles as the Giants stymied the Bills' furious offensive attack. Norwood's miss at the buzzer encapsulated the fun and the drama up to that point.
2. Super Bowl XLIV: New England Patriots 28, Seattle Seahawks 24
The Seattle Seahawks were trying to become the first team to repeat since the Patriots in the early 2000s. New England's Malcolm Butler had other things on his mind in the waning seconds of Super Bowl XLIV. A controversial decision to throw the ball instead of running it with Marshawn Lynch led to a Russell Wilson interception, and Seattle plucked defeat from the jaws of certain victory. Tom Brady and Bill Belichick's second dynasty was kickstarted by this victory.
1. Super Bowl XLII: New York Giants 17, New England Patriots 14
The New England Patriots don't suffer a lot of brutal losses, but losing the last game of the season to a Wild Card team after winning 18 games in a row is as shocking as any defeat in NFL history. Tom Brady was kept quiet by a hellacious New York pass rush, and Eli Manning finished the job with David Tyree's famous helmet catch on the receiving end of the younger Manning's throw down the field. No matter how much one team is favored, Super Bowl XLII proved that sports are all about the unexpected.

Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan reunite for Sinners — here’s what to expect
Coogler and Michael B. Jordan will reunite for the fifth time
Coogler and Jordan

Ryan Coogler is one of the first names you hear when critics discuss the directors with the brightest futures in the movie industry. Coogler has a keen sense of what makes both an entertaining and thought-provoking story on the big screen. He was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture for his producing efforts on Judas and the Black Messiah, but let's stick with his directorial career only for the sake of this article. His vision always includes Michael B. Jordan as his muse. Fruitvale Station, Creed, Black Panther, and its sequel are the four films the duo have collaborated on so far, and their fifth film is just around the corner.

Sinners will star Jordan as two identical twins with a checkered past as they travel back to their hometown in search of a better life. The unexpected horrors that await Smoke and Stack when they arrive will test their identities and their abilities to survive. There are not a lot of plot details, but the movie seems to be a perfect mix of horror and thriller elements. It should also critique race relations and make social statements about the current world we're living in if we're to go off of what Coogler's previous movies have focused on. This is everything we know about Sinners so far, from any trailers for the movie to the release date of the film in theaters (it's not far away).
What is the business relationship between Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan?
As mentioned in the intro, Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan have a type of relationship that has been shared in the past by duos like Martin Scorsese and Robert DeNiro. Fruitvale Station was the first time they collaborated. It was Coogler's first time directing a film and one of the first times Jordan was the main star after smaller roles in shows like The Wire. They revived the Rocky franchise with the spinoff film Creed at a time when many people didn't think Jordan would be able to serve as an adequate star for the world's most famous boxing franchise. And then came the movie franchise that changed everything for both Coogler and Jordan: Black Panther. Jordan played the antagonist of the film, while Coogler's vision for Marvel's biggest movie yet helped solidify it as a modern classic. It became the first Marvel film to win an Academy Award.
