it takes a little more

Yesterday's get up for a woozy-zombie-ish walk around town


Supreme|lEvis LVC|Undercover

I'm loving how the fades turn out, almost perfect set of wrinkles to my thighs! Couldn't enjoy them much though, my head weighed a ton and i was beginning to feel feverish yet again... bummer. Think i need more down time
PICKUPZ


Supreme constructed tee

Always wanted this tee, and it almost didn't arrive in the mail. Took ages before it came in, the fit is perfect


Goodenough western shirt in super soft flannel

Wasn't as general cut as i thought (they run smaller in recent years), but still a nice find. Hope to put it to good use in the coming months. Love the pearl buttons! :)


DROPZ
in pure coincidence, spotted the following drops from the same labels...
Goodenough DoubleDutch



Collab tee with store DoubleDutch, interesting touch with the gdeh font, a little like the London 2012 logo, no? :)

Supreme


Collabs with A-Ron's Off-Bowery Production for the don's photo exhibition, with Tet's (wtaps) and Supreme's inputs.
A couple are already up on the 'bay and going for silly money

A couple of nice items that i feel will look great for A/W 08


Veritas Supreme: don't you just love the colorway?




Logo hoodie: the black/black is great, but blue is more me


Zip-up: it looks comfy already!


Stussy Deluxe
I haven't been impressed much by the Deluxe line (if they could offer the quality, why wait till now, and then over-price them?) But the following pieces could change my mind


Sweater; Flannel shirt: selvedge denim (love the square cut)

Messenger and daypack
These 2 packs look really good and should be more than perfect for the daily grind


Nike LDV vintage



New colorways of LDV's given the vintage treatment. While i haven't been rocking too much of my pair of Daybreak's, I think the red pair should look cool in any wardrobe

Gisele strolls around and looks hot effortlessly


flawless!

Laters!

under the radar, under the weather

Funnily enough, caught the flu and felt pretty bad under the weather at the same time as the economy collapses. Hope everyone's $$ is still safe in the vaults, rather than in the stocks. But if you have surplus to needs, now's is the time to mop up the good deals
The real economy's gonna hit us common folks in time to come. For now? i'm still picking up the nice deals/odds and ends...i just love the marketplace
PICKUPZ


lEvis 501xx

Always a staple in any wardrobe, and i probably have more than sufficient denim for several generations, but i just can't resist the fades on this


RRL v-neck and Number(N)ine guns n roses

Probably going through the whole rock'n'roll-easygoing-lazy-slouch-style (not that i'm an expert), but its awfully comfy. The search for the elusive perfect tee is always on, and the RRL's are pretty close (ones you really sleep in) But dang, them n(n)'s are really destroyed, hahaha.


DROPZ
Jeremy Scott for adidas


I only kinda like these 2 from the upcoming Jeremy Scott collection
...but (you knew it was coming) i feel leopard's pretty much done by Cavalli, and the pieces don't make me sit up like i expect them to. Who could forget the ultra-rare 1st Jeremy Scott dollar-bill infused adidas hi-tops back in the day?
speaking of leopard...
Resonate




Following the pics of the denim with leopard print rear patch earlier, more are revealed from the upcoming collection. Totally going for the animal look this A/W, i like the black horse-hair combi, but wonder when i'll ever pull it off.

They'll be great to pair off with the NB 574/575 Horse-hair pack though

But if you plan on wearing faux-fur allover-style, beware when those mammals get close enough, they might mate with ya, LOL

Nexus7
Been ages since i posted stuff on one of my fave labels, so i'm gonna go overload




Part of the new line of tees with "warriors" print, they've done a one-off custom yet again on hollywood-friendly clothing. Like how they've customed on vintage American college tees, PoloRalph/Lacoste tees, they've reappropriated the all-too-familiar MarcJacobs "protect the skin you're in" tees. These items are few and far between (think Undercover's Undrkvr one-off range) so get em while they're hot

A/W 08


Cardigan; 3B jkt; zip hoodie (i like!!); shawl sweater



Herrington down vest; denim jkt; quilt jkt (awesome!)



Indigo/Black denim; Goretex jkt(perennial fave N7 material); knit cardigan(its beginning to grow on me); reversible S/S, L/S tee

and of couse the quintessential NexusVII tees (all beautifully adorn with Chaz's inks)



remember the "warriors" imprint earlier? love the reflective print


"cult follower" print is sick-sick-sick




I'm thoroughly sold on those prints (ya think?), so if anyone has access to them: HOOK A BROTHA UP!

Oh, and bonus pics of more bad-ass photo print N7 goodness

"erykah badu does it better"
'nuff said!

Angela Lindvall models in bikini for Jimmy Choo

i believe thats what most ladies would do for a pair of JimmyChoo's as well!

Halle is Esquire's sexiest woman alive

i wouldn't doubt her for a second

Bonus pics time: Jessica Alba circa 2002

For the fine-haired scrutineers, click and zoom on 3rd pic (i knew she loves au naturel)

laters y'all!!!
