KNUCKLE UP.

Yes, Its Dirk from BOXeight below, but if you notice on his finger its one of the dopest rings Ive seen yet! Je'Maime is the designer of these innovative nastty bossy girl pieces. Around the time of Fashion Week LA I met her at the studio while BOXeight was hosting a party..Her confidant personality and thick foreign accent your just bound to be so curious to as what she does. So I asked her what does she do she told me "Im a metal woman" What a rugged job description right? But the most amazing thing is that she hand makes each of these brass nuckle rings that are sure to make a statement on anyone who puts this bad girl on...Girl Fight?To the right is one of her other designs she has out on her line..You can purchase these exclusively online at jemaimenyc.com

ITS HERE...CHILLY-O

The "Hard to Get, Easy when you know how" line...My boy Omar sent me over his new stuff and I love the whole GRUNGE FOR PEACE concept! The line is hella dope and mind you he is one of the only ATL based African American designers that have prevailed to make something good and have a line that stands for something..Not to be easil confused with the posers that are out here just to look cute with a board in their hand just to follow the new wave. He is respected amongst the X community, and he is just here to show ppl that there still is something out here worth wearing with a solid goal intended, which is to spread the Peace and bring the ppl of COLOR up as well and in wealth...SO ENJOY...!

Whats on your sole...?

So with my other half working at ADIDAS, I dont mean to be bias buuutttt I have to be ANTI PUMA's etc. etc. (lol) Serious matters now, I was browsing through the site and actually saw some nice looking multi colored sneak's usually I am not a fan of the brights but I seemed to have been captured by these pairs of tennis. I always was an adidas fan before any other brand especially cause they very much so are affordable.With that being said, I hope you guys enjoyed what i stumbled across..!

PERKS of working at FOREVER 21's HQ

Forever 21 has been the greatest come up no matter what type of economic crisis we are facing!With their dirt cheap find's and fashion foward peices I'm definitely a proud representative of the company and glad to see everything that goes on before it hits the stores! Recently they just launched their new line TWELVE BY TWELVE made and targeted toward a more upscale, older range of consumers. I am so glad they have launched this line (Now I dont have to see my mom try and fit the stuff I wear.lol.sidenote.jk MOM I LOVE YOU) but really this innovative new line is great for everyone and not to be limited to the mom's of the world. I personally like a few of their peices and grabbed some for myself..
Now,I will show you some quick picks...ENJOY!

JUST MOVED IN...CATCHING UP!

A lil backed up at the moment, just moved in a new spot and havn't had internet access this BB hasn't been very dependable!

None the less I have some new things I'm going to present to you all..
Sarah Seilbach has done it again with her new fall line debut...I recently talked about her as a new designer to keep your eye out for and showed a little bit of her work..This fall she still keeps the same concept of simplicity, but do not underestimate the craftsmenship and detail put into each garment, with her earth tone inspired peices she is definitely fashion foward with her concepts I cant wait to see what else she has in store!!

Currently her stuff is only sold in New York, thankfully I am making a trip that way around June. I am sooo stoked!!
