FINALLLLY, AA Flea Market Los Angeles.

Hmm, Amazing Much?

So, for those of you who know me, know that I LOVE MGMT.
So, as I was waiting for the Little Boots CD to download,
I decided to watch their music videos, that I always hear about.

And, turns out, the music videos make me appreciate the song SO much more.

1. Time to Pretend, was okay. Not my favorite. The concept of the video didn't really capture the concept of the song that well. But it was entertaining all the same.

2. Electric Feel, EVERYONE'S (including mine's) favorite MGMT song. And the concept of the video takes the concept of the song (how you feel when you are high on virtually anything-especially acid) perfectly. So many of my friends say that they feel JUST like that video. Hahah. Btw, I'd love to be at that party!

3. Kids, my FAVORITE MGMT video. Sick, twisted, amazing. I feel pretty bad for that permanently traumatized baby. And, the video kind of scared me, because it was so weird!

&, although this isn't an official MGMT video, I LOVE it, made me laugh.

Wow, FINALLY.

Thank God, it's like a month late, but at least it's here.
So, I am going to go to UrbanOutfitters this weekend, and check it out.

Kanye West on men.style.com

Okay, so on my daily visit to men.style.com,
I came across something that made my eyes POP.
My style/inspiration icon, Kanye West's 10 Essentials.
The 10 Essentials is a ongoing thing for men.style.com,
featuring different celebrities, but finally, YEEZY.

So, this was his list. . .
1. Heather-Gray Balmain T-Shirt
-I love the heather gray t-shirt style. But, unfortunately I can't afford Balmain, so I settle for my American Apparel one, which I wear religiously. I agree with Kanye about it being a good addition to any outfit.

2. Black Air Yeezy
-Of course Kanye would feature these shoes, since he designed them (but where are his LV's?). But, I HATE these shoes. They are hideous, burning to my eyes, actually. I don't understand everyone's fascination with these tearjerking eyesores, but whatever. To each their own.

3. Dark Brown RRL Jeans in Slim Boot Cut
-Ehh, I have seen better jeans before. I don't like boot cut, because I feel uncomfortable without skinnies=/. Lmfao. And, the color is kind of not attractive, but I guess they are very "utilizing" as Kanye claims.

4. iPod Nano, iPhone, Macbook Air w/ Aircard
-An iPod of ANY kind is necessary. But my choice is an iPod touch, but if Kanye chooses a nano, that's his choice. I just wonder how a music-lover such as himself fits all that onto a nano. iPhone's are amazing, but I can't picture myself with one. And, being the only MacBook without a webcam, I would never recommend a MacBook Air, even though it does weigh like 0.5 an ounce.

5. Vintage Levi's Jean Jacket
-Any fashion-lover knows that jean jackets (or jean anything for that matter) is this year's comeback trend. They have been popping up on runways and resort collections everywhere. I had one, that I eagerly gave away 2 years ago (for thoughts of its never-returning trendiness), that I wish I had now. However, I am looking for a nice thrifted one EVERYWHERE.

6. Blacked-Out Rolex Submariner
-This watch is pretty dope, and expensive, haha. I am a fan of Rolex's, but because I am not Kanye West, I will stick to investing into a white G-shox. Haha.

7. Calvin Klein Boxer Briefs
-I LOVE Calvin Klein Underwear (he has an individual brand for underwear for you know-nothings). The cotton is so soft, I have like 2 v-necks and 2 boxers from there, because designer underwear is not the first thing I am trying to buy to live high-fashion. And, I wear boxer breifs quite frequently. But I switch between breifs and regular boxers interchangeably.

8. Lanvin Seersucker Dinner Jacket
-Ummm? This dinner jacket is not ugly. But nowhere near an "essential" item. It is quite unattractive in my opinion. But, maybe I don't see it's potential for an outfit. It might actually work quite well as the finishing touch to a whole ensemble, who knows?


9. Louis Vuttion Monogramouflage Keepall
-Another "DUH" item for Kanye West. As I was approaching the end of the list, I was wondering where I would see a LV item. Because any Kanye fan knows of his undying love for Louis Vuitton (he interned there, and made a shoe collection for LV for Christ's sake). I actually like this bag. The camoflauge look is sooooooo UN-high-fashion that it just SCREAMS high-fashion. I also agree that it just looks cool, a 5 year old would want that. This is definitely a standout for LV.

10. Retro Super Future Flat-Top Sunglasses
-What to say about these babies? YES. Wayfarers are the most popular glasses for any man OR woman this summer, and the one of the trend's forefathers was Kanye West. Although most wayfarers look the same, soemthing about these scream uniqueness. I love them. Marry me?

WTF.

NYLON LOVES NIKE high top Air Trainers.
I am going to get the baby blue and lime green.

But, does anyone know when these are coming out?
The expected release date was supposed to be June 1,
at Urban Outfitters? Am i right? Correct me if i'm not.

New Shoesssssss,

okay, so, lately, my mom has been riding my back,
every morning: "Eww, those shoes are SO raggedy!"
and, kept telling me that she would buy me new shoes.
So, tomorrow, I am going to get my first new pair.


I am going to purchase high-top white Converse.
i had been thinking of what to get, and these came to mind.
high-top Converse went out of style about 3-4 years ago,
but lately, they have been popping up on runways like CRA,.ZY.
so, i am going to buy these babies for about $40.

June 8, 1977.

The birthdate of my favorite rapper,
and my #1 style icon, my inspiration.

KANYE WEST!

New Artist Alert: Thunderheist.

Okay, so I heard the song "Jerk It" on Monday afternoon,
after the free Nylon Summer Playlist 2009 finished downloading.
I immediately knew that this artisit was FIRE.

So, after a few days of tons of work, I finally had the chance,
to download her ENTIRE full-lenghth self-titled debut album.

I absolutely LOVE it, perfect 10.5/10. It's fucking amazing.

Lookbook Inspiration? Yes.
