Cole Haan Kicks



WHY is everybody trippin' off these Cole Haan kicks with the Nike Technology? Maybe ya'll don't remember but besides the fact that Cole Haan is OWNED by Nike..they're also the company that makes the G-Series... Now yeah I see on their site that they are NOW separating the lines into separate categories "G-Series" and "Cole Haan Nike Air" but who gives a shit.... BOTH lines are made with Nike technology... I have a pair of G-Series heels from the second year the line was made that actually say "NIKE AIR" on the side...whatever... I guess if you not up on game this is some big shit...

Daydreaming...





I have no information on this Chanel bag... All I know is I want it and it was so gorgeous I thought I'd share...This bag is off chain...Also want this Chanel football...why? cuz I can...

LA Fashion Week Kick Off



IT'S THAT TIME OF THE YEAR!!! I LOVE FASHION WEEK!!!!

Yeah I know we (The West Coast...The BEST Coast) catch heat for not having real style and for being too laid back...blah blah blah...Hey it is what it is...Is it OUR fault we're laid back? I mean it's eternally 70 degrees out here, we got beaches, good herb, gorgeous people and we don't live in apartments 30 stories high...that tends to make you a lil kick back BUT We got MAD style...If you don't believe me come check out the Up Against The Wall Fashion Show this Friday...It should be a good blend of East Coast Fashion with BEST Coast Styling...

ish...


I love men that speak their mind...and Chris Rock hasn't failed me yet...

Nixon Watch


For someone who doesn't like watches or clocks I sure talk a lot about them (I know)...but I saw this watch and couldn't NOT talk about it...

Nixon watches hold a special place in my heart...To me they are one of the few urban/street/skate/whateveryouwannacallit brands that have successfully created a watch line that looks chic but still feels street...The Chalet, the Vega, the Rayna and the Clique can all be worn while you're hustlin' around town or hittin' up the VIP booths (these aren't the only fly one's...just some of my favorites...real ill broads should check out the men's selection...if you're willing to rock a dudes watch your selection just expanded enormously...)

The limited edition Rotolog above is tricked out in 9.25carats of black and white diamonds...This will mos def guarantee to set off any outfit...The skull heads are ill (peeps say they're trendy but I been rockin' skulls since before it was cool so I'll always rock them...told ya'll I think I'm hard)...You can grab them at Barney's

Dill Pickle Sunflower Seeds?!


Sunflower seeds are a staple in the 'hood...so when I ran into liquor store the other day to grab a bag you can imagine my surprise when I saw a Dill Pickle flavored bag...WTF? NOW this might seem like a strange combination but as soon as I saw the words 'Dill Pickle' memories of dill pickles with cherry Jolly Rancher sticks shoved in them rushed back from my childhood (I shoved weird things in my pickles as a kid..now&laters...saladitos)... The pickle taste on these seeds is light and kinda replaces that straight salt flavor that you usually get on contact with seeds... They're not bad at all...Dill Pickle AND Seeds? How much more ghetto can you get?

Tempt One Art Benefit

More charity...I've seen this one circling around the blogs...This one hits the art community...

Known Gallery is organizing an art show featuring some of the world’s greatest Graffiti Artists, who have agreed to donate all of the proceeds from their work to raise funds to provide Tempt with the care he will require at home. “Tempt” was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), a rare neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness and resulting in paralysis.


The show starts March 10th... The Flyer has all the details...Art and charity... fills your mind and your heart...good shit...

Time Keepers...

As I've stated before I wish I didn't have to keep track of time...I do everything in my power to pay as little attention to it as possible but somehow I eventually have to bow down and see what time it is...Making this process as painless as possible is the only way I can even halfway deal with the concept...I used to have one of those annoying alarm clocks the one with the sound they use in all commercials 'til I literally chucked it against the damn wall...These days I'm using the alarm on my sidekick(which I had to pay for by the way...what f'in phone doesn't come with an alarm?! but I digress...) so I've been searching the net trying to find a new clock and I've found a load of new options...I like them so much I don't even mind having to use one...

First up...the single digit clock... I like the simplicity but I'm not sure if I have the patience to keep my eyes open in the middle of the night long enough to watch all the digits flash...



This 'open edition' clock is a little better but I still dunno if I wanna give up that much space on my bedside table for a clock...This puzzle clock amuses me...but only in theory...if that thing was next to the bed I'd learn to sleep through it without having to put it back together...
Now I think Verbarius is actually one of the most stylish clocks I found BUT there's no alarm... I'd still get it for the living room just to floss it tho...
If you like the smell of bacon (wonder if you can use turkey...hmm...) you might like this Wake n' Bacon clock... honestly it's just a novelty...basically useless but when has that ever stopped me from buying something...

All this looking for clocks has made me tired and I still haven't found anything to wake me up yet...I'm gonna take a nap and wake up and try again...Hopefully I won't sleep too long...

Kelis ARRESTED?! WTF?


WTF is wrong with Kelis? First the pink hair...now this...WHY is she harassing the prostitutes? Don't they have it bad enough already?

Man looking at this picture makes me wish I still had my Heatherette Dress...It was a bad look to get rid of it...

In semi-related news...rumor is the 3rd N.E.R.D. album is on the way...WOO HOO I can't wait...
