This is a re-interpretation of the classic menswear looks from the bad boy culture of the 50’s. These are all wearable in the warmer months. Check out more from Acne HERE

Versatility is key!

I think this is my fashion flaw. I need to do a better job of buying things that can go with anything. I bought a pair of silver creative recreations over the summer & only wore them one time. Seriously what's going to go with silver shoes???

Rich's visit to the mall

Ok so my objectives were to find a light grey cardigan, sneakers, a hoodie, & some blue denim jeans. I did all except find a pair of shoes.

I scored this BDG hoodie from Urban for no particular reason.

I copped these jeans the 520 tappered legs.

Last but not least I snagged this light grey baby rib cardigan from American Apparel.

I got all these pieces but I dont know exactly what Im going to wear them with. Oh well hopefully I'll find something before I go out of town.

Apple Macbook - Tribook concept

Photobucket
This would be awesome for me! I like to listen to music, chat on instant messanger, & blog all at once. Having 3 different screens to look at would be like heaven to me! But all I can do is salivate at this. I can only imagine what the pricetag on this thing will be but here are a few specs.

At a mere 6.75 inches deep, 10 inches wide, and about an inch tall, the triBook strikes a modest profile–it easily slips into most purses and man bags and completely disappears inside any book bag or backpack. But while portability is nice, it’s typically achieved at the expense of utility, and this is where the triBook is a triumph. When the triBook’s lid is closed, the two side screens tuck in neatly, sandwiched between the main display and the keyboard/touchpad. And when it’s time to use the machine, you lift the lid and unfold the side panels, just as if you were unfolding a cardboard box.

This is interesting..

Instead of doing my projects, I'm looking for things to posts & I stumbled upon this list of misconceptions. It's very informing. One thing on the list is the conception that shaving causes hair to grow back thicker. This belief is due to the fact that hair that has never been cut has a tapered end, whereas, after cutting, there is no taper. Thus, it appears thicker, and feels coarser due to the sharper, unworn edges.
Another conception is the myth that there is a cure for split ends or damaged hair. Shampoos and conditioners that advertise themselves as being able to reverse damage or reduce split ends are incorrect. Scientifically, the only way to cure split ends is by a simple haircut. Once the cuticle of the hair shaft is split, it can often still grow split, but can never be mended. Haircare products can be used to soften the texture by using fillers that attach to the hair shaft, making the hair appear healthier.

M.I.A is pregnant

You can see a picture of her belly at the end of this video

Dam somebody got to her before me ^_^. In her recent interview with Spin magazine, M.I.A spilled the beans on her pregnancy. The father is guitarist Benjamin Brewer. She is due to give birth in february.

What Rich is listening to

If I remember I'll try to post one of these every week or so.

First up: Is the Clipse. I listen to them almost everyday. These guys are so under rated. They go so hard. I think the things they rap about may go over a lot people's head. Listen to their first album Lord, their second album Hell Hath No Fury, their host of mixtapes such as We got it 4 cheap vol. 3 We got it 4 cheap vol. 3. And you can find till the road to the casket drops in our blog archives.

Second: Is Gemstones or Gemini. I was listening to this guy as I was getting dressed to go to the mall. I can hear the hunger in his voice.

gemstones (The Testimony of Gemstones)(Fahrenheit 1/15)

Gemstones - Fahrenheit 1/15 Part V: Gemstones - Untamed Beast

Third: is Freeway aka Philly Freezer! Man I swear ever since like the summer of 05 when he dropped Philadelphia Freeway, I've been on this guy hard! I bought his most recent album Free at Last & they are both classic material to me.



Fourth: Fat Joe.. I know people are looking at their computer screen like there's a glitch in the pixels or something but for some reason I like Joe. Although I first heard him & Pun on Deep Cover(twins), I really got on him when he dropped Me Myself & I & his latest album, Elephant in the room. They both are close to classic material to me.


Fifth: Da Goonz. These niggas right here! Get me pumped for no reason. Me & my homie App been on these guys since the summer of 06. Although there is only two guys that rap, you will never see these guys with less than 20 people with Goonz shirts on. Visit their myspace www.myspace.com/dagoonz5thwd or check out my imeem page HERE to hear more from them.


Sixth: Elzhi.. One of my friends from school put me on Elz. Im very thankful for him. He's with slum village but recently released a solo album called The Preface. He spits over some nice beats & saying he has nice lyrics would be an understatement.


-You can listen to all of these artist on imeem.com

Amy Amy Amy

Photobucket
Island Records reserved 3 studios across London to get Amy Winehouse to increase the chances of amy dropping an album soon

"Amy's next record is one of the most eagerly anticipated in pop music so the record label isn't taking any chances," a source told UK newspaper Mirror [via Gigwise.com] "She does like an all-night bender so by booking three different venues, at least the record label are assured -- on the law of averages -- that she'll turn up in one of them."

Katy Perry & Lilly Allen beef???

Photobucket
Allen explained the situation on UK radio station Capital FM [via NME.com]. "When I met her I was bit frosty with her because someone asked her to describe herself. She's like, 'Aha, I'm like a fatter version of Amy Winehouse and a skinnier version of Lily Allen!' It's like, you're not English and you don't write your own songs, shut up!"

When news of Allen's comments reached Perry, she had the following to say to US Weekly: "Yeah, I made a joke about [that] earlier this year. I was just kind of joking and trying to be funny. I didn't mean anything by it. Comedians are not necessarily to be taken super seriously."

That sounds less like "I'm super sorry" and more like "I'm sorry you're so uptight that you don't understand my (svelte) comedic ways."

Sorry Katy, Lilly is my girl. Im ridin' with her on this one.
Man I wish they would duke it out. That would have made this post 10 times more interesting.
