Kanye West, Custom Balmain Biker Leather Jacket




Oh how the other half live and all that. Like many have predicted, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before he announces a collaboration with the French (Parisian) fashion house.

Oat Shoes






OAT Shoes are the latest addition to the world of green goods and in this case runners/sneakers, but the most remarkable thing about them is the fact that they are completely biodegradable. Yes once you've worn them out simply bury them in the garden and they will blossom. All this and I have to say they look pretty good, too !!! No wonder they have gathered a few design awards under their belt already and I'll look forward to new designs !!!

BAPE SOLD



As most of Asia arrives at Tuesday afternoon, Hong Kong’s fashion group I.T made a surprising announcement – its purchase of NOWHERE Corp., parent company of street wear label A Bathing Ape, or better known as BAPE. With the purchase, priced at 230 million Japanese yen, or roughly $2.8 million dollars, I.T will receive 90% stake of the company. The fashion group is planning to absorb NOWHERE and BAPE into its already extensive brand portfolio. The company’s press release also stipulated that NOWHERE’s founder, Tomoaki Nagao, also known as NIGO, will stay on as creative director for the first 2 years to oversee the transition.

While it was no surprise to some regarding BAPE’s sale since rumors have been circulating for a few years now. The price that I.T paid, a mere $2.8 million dollars, for a global brand movement, surprised most.

The most secure wallet ever, the Dunhill Biometroc Wallet. This carbon fiber wallet is secured with a biometric fingerprint reader, ensuring that only you can open it. And it also has a Bluetooth alarm, so if it gets further than five feet away from you, your phone alarm will go back.

Shout Out Sundays coming soon.


I'm starting a "Shout out Sunday" on my blog. Every Sunday give a shout out to a blog I've found and like. Similar to the new trend of weekly music giveaways such as "G.O.O.D FRIDAY". The more people that get involved the better. I'll follow them and hopefully vice versa.
