I Don't Like Mondays

This shirt is sexy. I think

skinny boys should rock

this... or really dope chicks.

Actually, I want it... would

wear with black tights, 

sleeveless blazer and skyhigh

platforms. 

COMBAT BOOTING

Look how sexy Marvin Gaye looks

with his blinged out, metallic combats. 

I've been really into the idea of boys

rocking combat boots. I've even seen a

few dudes pull it off extremely well.

I love them most when they are paired

with more subtle and classic pieces. It's a

great way to make a statement with out

looking like a douche.

Snatchin' Cazals

A designer eyewear line that pleases

everyone is unlikely to inspire. Good

design must be thought-provoking.

Cari Zalloni

Don't even act like you haven't day dreamed
of owning a pair of sick frames like these. Well
now is your chance to bring back a piece of history
while upgrading your steez. 8689 Vintage brings
you a collection of vintage Cazal specs in all shapes
and colors. Find more dope styles at the ebay store.

Trend Alert: SLASHINGS

Slashes are the sophisticated way to have holes
in your clothes. No more tore up jeans and fringed
hems. They are key for having the perfect color
peek. It is modesty at it's best and with the right
placement can reveal just enough skin. Definitely
a nice update for, otherwise, classic pieces.

When I saw the new Dior Homme
collection I immediately thought of these
boots.

Pierre Hardy Fall 2008

It's become obvious that Pierre Hardy is
by far one of my favorite shoe designers.
He is innovative in all he does and every
time I see a new collection my whole
perspective on life changes! Serious stuff, yo!


Dior Homme Spring 2009



I dream of owning these pants.

Skin peeks!

A Lesson in Old School

I grew up with three older brothers, all of which unknowingly
influenced me at the time. It's hard to wear dresses when you
are too busy wanting to do everything the boys are doing. My
brother Chris started b-boying when I was in middle school. I didn't
necessarily have any style then but there is only so much you can do
with a school uniform. I've always really loved the old school hip hop style.
No, I never wore shell toes nor did I trot around in track suits and beanies.
But since then and over the years, I have incorporated certain elements into
my style.








Dsquared's Spring 2009 collection caught me by surprise. The
brothers took inspiration from Jamel Shabazz's book Back In The Days.
Shabazz began documenting urban street stlye over thirty years ago.
I have always dreamed of a collection like this. Some of it was hit or
miss but over all the awesome pieces help me ignore the wack ones.
They might have used way too many gold chains too... But hey, it's
the thought thats counts.


Street Safari




I love the mix of texture and pattern.


I will have to make myself a gingham blazer ASAP

Kicking It Mondrian Style

I am not a big fan of dunks but I know
if I saw these on someone I would melt a little.

INSPIRATION:

Piet Mondrian
Composition with Yellow, Blue, and Red, 1921



Nike SB Dunk Low Piet Mondrian

Also, with the passing of YSL, we will continue
to see loads and loads of Mondrian inspired fashions.
