I had just got back from NY, and I wasn’t even in Philly for

more than 10 minutes when I bounced right to Ubiq

for their release party for the 700 level collection by Puma.

Dj Green Lantern was on deck, and the city kids were in full effect.

LATER FOLKS ;-)

A War was had; Outfits laced the Battle Field

leave a comment »

Here are the highlights from Style Wars.

I’ll be honest when I say that I expected more, but I enjoyed myself.

The winner of the competition was a designer named Shauntele.

Her winning look was called Pimp My Bride, and you can catch some of the shot of her look below.

I would say this though, the person who stole the show was the model below with the coat hanger outfit on.

Her personality sparkled, her attitude was amazing, and shes pretty much the reason why some of the designers won their rounds.

Take my word for it. This model was fire.

Surface Magazine held a photo shoot for the outfits that the designers created in their battles.

A sample of what they made. Not the most impressive. :-(

Here is a look that the winner Shauntele made. The theme was Pros before Hoes.

And as you see we have a winning combo here.

The model of my dream along with a pretty creative tennis outfit.

This is the only other outfit that I really like through out the whole competition.

WELLL… other than the Coat hanger outfit of course..

Tixinda: Key To My Fashionable Heart

with one comment

[via] tixinda

I’m really feeling the new windbreaker created by Tixinda. This splash of various tiki characters is a apart of an interesting collaboration between Tixinda & Nike.

I can’t wait for the day when I get an invite to design a collaboration item with a company. I’ve got stocks & stocks of merch to unleash on the world. But patience is the key. In the meantime I’m enjoying the view. :-)

GREY SCARF

I recently got one of these wonderful 100% wool scarves and I’ve been waiting for the right picture to show you guys how sharp it looks on me, but I couldn’t help give you guys a peek to what the scarves look like. I’m not sure how many scarves are left, but I don’t know they are going pretty fast. I included a buy now link for you guys that are interested in taking your dress up a few notches .. :-) .. enjoy
