Starz Angels

ish...

- This beach chair caught my eye earlier this summer but at $50 a chair I didn't feel like breaking bread (I can be real cheap sometimes)...$25 a chair seems much more reasonable though...

- One of my favorite sites Notcot wrote an article about a new mag called Elemente...What really caught my eye is the article on that Puma bag I was talking about a few posts ago...The article on the OXO product also sparked my attention...Makes me wanna go to the news stand and hunt down the mag...

Braggin' Rights

Yeah I copped them BOTH for $30 a piece at Kendo this past weekend...I know you jealous....

Da Fall Buyble

We all know I look to men's buying guides as inspiration for the season to come and that the one from Inquiringmind is one of my favorites...The first chill is coming down in LA, it's about that time to start bundling up and the Fall 2007 Buyble is here...It couldn't have come sooner...

Nike Air Max 97

They're re-releasing the Air Max 97's (known more commonly in the 'hood as the Dan O'Brien's even tho this shoe was never officially attached to him)...This is one of my favorite Air Max ever... I actually still have my pair from '97...This time they are being released with an all silver colorway...No word on the date yet...

Nixon X Barney's Collabo

It's no secret that I love Nixon watches and the watch above just made my heart skip a beat again...Nixon has once again created the most beautiful collection of limited edition watches for Barney's for the upcoming holiday season. The collection consists of 3 models. The one above is the All Black Stainless Steel/Rose Gold 51-30. It has two band options...the stingray above (my personal favorite) and a black stainless steel band...Unlike the last Barney's watch that had 9.25 carats of black and white diamonds...This one is only studded with 2 carats of black diamonds...However, only 4 pieces were made which makes this watch truly limited edition...

(Thanks Hypebeast)

I LOVE Q-TIP and Lunchbox is Pretty Crackin' Too...

I just got back from Lunchbox...All I can say is Q-Tip gave me a hug and I immediately felt 16 again and loss all ability to form sentences and respond to him but I did hug him back...I'm not sure if I reverted back to 16 'cuz of the thrill I felt interacting with my favorite rapper of my youth or if I was having flashbacks 'cuz of the venue the new Crash Mansion which used to be the Shark Club back in the day...I spent a great deal of my teenage summer nights at Clubhouse Monday Nights at Shark Club along with about 1,000 of my closest friends and there has never been a LA club experience since quite like it...If you weren't partying at Clubhouse Monday Nights in the early-mid 90's you weren't partying... Anyway you should check out Lunchbox Saturday nights...It's pretty hot...Literally...

*BarTabz.com has pics from Saturdays event...

WTF?!

Reef Stash Sandals...They serious about this huh? I do understand when you're on the beach and you have no pockets but to be real...tie that key around the string of your boardshorts like we've been doing for years and donate that change to the bum standing next to the lemonade stand where you just got that change (what bum? there's always bum at the beach)...I'll tell you one thing if I did get these flip flops my 'stash' would definitely not consist of keys and some change...

Jones Soda...The Seattle Seahawks Edition...

I've loved Jones Soda for years...I've loved it so much whateyesaygoes and I considered buying stock years ago... For football season this year they have released limited edition Seattle Seahawks football-inspired sodas including Dirt Soda, Sports Cream Soda, Perspiration Soda, Natural Field Turf Soda and Sweet Victory Soda...They will also be releasing their Pure Cane Cola, Sugar-Free Cola and Lemon Lime Soda in Seahawks themed 12 pack can Fridge Packs featuring 7 unique Seahawks related photos per box.

*On another note if YOU wanna be on a bottle of Jones Soda you can send them a pic and a flavor and in 3-4 weeks a 12 pack will arrive on your doorstep...That's good ish...

FASHION RUMOR OF THE DAY

HOLLYWOULD IS WORKING ON THEIR FIRST LINE OF MEN'S SHOES...WE SHALL SEE...

Nike Air Trainer Huarache

Man I just peeped these new Huaraches over at Sneaker Freaker...I can't wait 'til they drop...The neon colorway brings a fresh look to kicks that I remember rockin' in high school and makes them look all brand new and current...I'm changing my laces to neon pink tho...Always gotta freak the 'kicks a lil...

La Rok Sale

Mike & Chris Sale

FYI - Mike and Chris make Men's gear...

THE BOONDOCKS IS BACK!!! WOO HOO!!

Sorry... I was just so excited about this I think it warrants it's own post...Aaron McGruder will be bringing The Boondocks back to Adult Swim starting October 8th and I can't wait!!! The delay since last season was so long I was scared Huey and Riley weren't coming back but I'm thrilled they are...Shoulda known they were on CP Time...Hey better late than NEVER!!! The new episodes are to be filled with rappers and other black talent who lent their voices to the upcoming season... It's bound to be another season of black radicalness from Huey mixed with gangster antics from Riley...Sounds like the story of my life...

ish...

- Beyonce has been rockin' that LV Tribute Bag I was so against...Crazy thing is... She's making me eat my words...That bag is pretty ill I will admit...

- Speaking of Beyonce...I'm happy I'm not the only one who get's annoyed by her...I was beginning to think something was wrong with me since I don't love her like every other human being...

- Bourjois just introduced a mascara cell phone charm like the lip gloss charm I love so much...Thank da lawd I have 3 cell phones...Where else would I put all my charms?

- Here we go again... Every 6 months there's a new city that tries to cite peeps for saggin'...If this isn't the signs of a police state... I dunno what is...

- I shoulda named this post the Beyonce edition...Class ring maker Josten's has teamed with the House of Dereon to create House of Dereon class rings...Lawd that's just what every teenager needs...A reminder in 30 years that they were stupid enough to worship Beyonce like all the other easily persuaded Americans...

- So Barry Bonds thinks Mark Echo is an 'idiot'...I'm sho he's not the only one...

Nike Air Native N7

Nike has created the first-of-a-kind performance shoe designed to address the specific fit and width requirements for the Native American foot. The Air Native N7 was created to help promote fitness amongst Native Americans, a community with high obesity rates. Research shows Native Americans have taller and wider feet than general so the the Air Native will be wider with a larger toe box and have other modifications to help with comfort. The shoe will also have "several "heritage callouts" including sunrise to sunset to sunrise patterns on the tongue and heel of the shoe. Feather designs adorn the inside and stars are on the sole to represent the night sky."

It will be distributed solely to American Indians and all proceeds from the sale of the shoe will be reinvested in health programs for tribal lands...Ill 'kicks AND charity...That's good ish...

Reminder...T Bags Sale This Weekend...

Justin's NYC Closed...

According to XXL, Puff...Sorry Diddy (I always forget not to call him Puff) has decided to close Justin's in NYC...

The statement which was released says ... “Bad Boy is seeking a larger footprint for the restaurant in the New York City area, as the size and location of the restaurant no longer fit the Justin’s brand,” the statement said. “The company sees the larger Justin’s Restaurant in Atlanta, which takes up most of a city block, as the prototype for the new New York City location. Bad Boy representatives are evaluating a number of options for a larger space in some of New York City’s prime traffic areas.”

I guess...Another case of they weren't making any money so they giving people lame excuses...On another note I have the original recipe for Justin's Puffy Shrimp so hit me up if you need it I'll be more than happy to pass it along...

Oh Wheely?

Check out this ill shoe wheel I saw over at Fashionista. It will hold up to 30 pairs of men's or women's shoes and for only $65 it's not really that expensive...I think this shoe wheel is a good idea but it seems like it might take up too much space...Yeah it holds 30 pairs but at a width of 13" it's wider than normal shoe boxes that you can stack on top of each other and shove against the wall which you probably can't do with this...I'm sure you need a lil more space than 13" so you can spin the thing around and find your 'kicks...I dunno...I guess maybe if you only have around 30 pairs of shoes and can fit them all in this one contraption then it's OK but I think I'll stick to my Ikea IVAR system that I can continue to expand to fit my ever expanding shoe collection...

MD 20/20...The Bling Edition...

Is it just me or does anyone else find it offensive that the Blue Raspberry Mad Dog 20/20 is wearing a bling bling nameplate?
