Stand!

I may not be a real artist..but I sure like to pretend. I did these photos of the Little Rock Nine late last year (2008)...I need to hang 'em up somewhere. No?

No Spotlight...

Hard day at work, all I wanted to do was get home to my bed and read Bazaar's Februsary issue (read tomorrow's post). But I happened to get stopped by a police officer who told me I was tailgating, improperly changing lanes WITH my high beams on. So of course, he was nice enough to just give me a 30 minute lecture and no ticket (which would've cost me $700).

Reasons such as these only push me to move to a planet where I can just
take a subway/tube.

Take My Picture!

The Colorsplash camera will re-cast your world in a gorgeous riot of color. Its patented colorwheel system puts several tinted flash filters at your finger tips for instant selection; with an additional 9 filters included to exchange. Long exposure capability creates dreamy streaked backgrounds behind crisp, color-flashed foregrounds. I will say that I will be taking a million and one photos in 2009 (lol).

Yes! We're Open!

Zuriik. Zuriik. ZURIIK! I can't (and probably won't) even stress it
enough! I visited the website ( http://zuriick.bigcartel.com/ ) last
night after work and was FLOORED by the product AND the pricing (all
shoes are under $100) can we all say Incredible? Sadly I've already
made a large purchase in the last 6 minutes.

And then there were two...more

Yes, yes...there ARE more wallets to bought this year (or this month in MY case)...These wallets by FOLK are giving me something to look forward to when I reach into my back pocket. Avaialbe at www.oki-ni.com

New Development

Whenever I need to know about anything edgy that belongs on the foot
(lol), I check out The High Heels Chronicles (a blog started by some
chick by the name of Sarah D.) Her blog informed me on a new label;
Melody Eshani. The ads kinda give me a SLIGHT hint of hoodrat...but I
can put those feelings aside for the sake of trendsetting. The shoes are
hot though.

Only in the mind

I think I've been blinded by amazement. Artist, Stuart Briers has brought me to see art and reality in a whole new eye. I can definitely appreciate the fact that the items are sorta random..but somehow relate to each other. My favorite painting is the bicycle spectacles (I can't even imagine if there were actual glasses like tht,lol).

Just me and my Croquis...

Giles Deacon has teamed up with Smythson Stationary simply because envelopes and their (dreadful) letters have gotten extremely boring (or just plain cheesy). So why not do it in style? Thanks to Deacon and his phenomenal croquis, I won't have to be ashamed to send my invited by snail mail.

(By the way...its a limited edition collection... so cop 'em while you
still can)

Good ol' Millies

I've finally come to terms with the fact that I have a 'naughty'
obsession with military gear. I found these Australian Military pants
from the 50's at C.Madeline today. THEY'RE MINE come Sunday!

Moonwalkers

Check out Raf Simons' new silver Astronaut Boots. I definitely wouldn't mind takin' a trip to outerspace with these.

Say what?!

I'm confused. Lets all be honest, Mr.Z doesn't exactly have the best
facial features...I'm all for statements (duh!) but in this case.... he
can do without it. Nuff said

Liya Kebede: Vogue Nippon Feb 2009

Nothing short of stunning

Take Me To The Hospital!

Martin Margiela made this fantastic hospital band bracelet. Now, I've never been in the hospital, and quite frankly, I don't ever want to wake up to those awful florescent lights...but this here kinda makes me want to take a short trip.

Front & Center

Soooo...I thought this was....Interesting (to say the least). The gear is pretty cool... The concept is dope..even the model is decent...but there's just something about it that is extra homo. I would say that On Front (the clothing label), could probably be on the wrong track with this, But there are a million and one "folk" that would eat this with a spork (you know the ones they used to give you back in middle school?) lol.

Carry On...

Only Time Will Tell

(Word of mouth can sometimes be such a blessing), my fellow fashion colleague Sam Taylor told me about this AMAZING Marc Jacobs skull watch (for $200). I sorta went speechless as I saw it. I really can't wait to see it in the "flesh" so I see how the hell it tells me the time! Otherwise all I can say is....dope.
