Dreadful...

It was recently decided by the 2008-2009 University High School football program that morning lifting sessions were much better than those in the afternoon. Yes morning lifting sessions. What time? 6 in the morning. Yes. SIX IN THE FUCKING MORNING. Which means, i would have to go to bed at about 9-10 ish. if you ask me thats a little bit extreme. Although i like working out and keeping myself in shape. Getting only 6-7 hours of sleep really hurts my studies. And i recently vowed to myself to put school first and try to get into NYU for college. The upside is i get to go home at one o'clock and have more time to catch up on my schoolwork.


I guess it isn't that bad.


More time to do some fashion research eh?


Until next time,

Kanye West Louis Vuitton Sneakers

As many of you might have heard, Kanye West the self-proclaimed "Louis Vuitton Don" has collaborated with the fashion brand to create a line of five sneakers. The first one, as shown above, made its debut in the Paris during the Louis Vuitton show where Mr. West himself was a spectator. The shoe itself looks quite plain other than a flap at the back which i find unnecessary and quite silly. The one thing that I think Mr. West managed to do right was to not overuse the "LV" logo and splash it everywhere. Estimated to retail at a ridiculously high price, I just don't think these shoes are worth it.

CHANGE OF HEART

i just recently to have change my style and wardrobe choices. I have moved on from flashy sneakers and streetwear to a more conservative, classic and timeless approach. Dress shirts, sweaters, (jeans still present) coats and jackets, and simpler articles of clothing will be more present in my choices of clothes. A little splash of color here and there won't hurt (show a little bit of attitude [;).

And of course: Ed Westwick aka Chuck Bass

BUSY BUSY BUSY

Sorry i haven't had a chance to update the blog lately. I've just been so packed and busy. Football season has consumed my life and has not allowed anything else. However, I am still able to squeeze in a few moments to check up on What's Good in the world. If you all don't know, my brother has been able to make me good acquaintances with the people from Blends and Franco Shade clothing.

I just got 2 new shirts from the Franco Shade Fall 2008 line. And i must say, I am very pleased with the direction the brand is going. The quality they use for the shirts have now upgraded, to softer American Apparel shirts. The printing is better than previous lines and the design is getting more and more diverse and creative.
I would totally recommend that if you are new to the brand, that you purchase either one of these products and you will be swayed.

Breaking News: Colette, Paris Open.

Recently, one of the most popular boutiques in the Parisian fashion scene went under some remodeling. With Wonderwall as the head design firm, I expected something along the lines of A Bathing Ape-esque modern, clean, lots of glass and futuristic type of store. Guess What? I was right. (Wonderwall is responsible for Bape Store Interiors) The Colette Store looks amazing and even has a cafe! Great clothes, great food, and definitely a spot to meet that chic hip Parisian girl you've been looking for.
