Comme Des Garcons X H & M

So this just came to my attention, and I had to share it with you. 

Comme Des Garcons will team up with H&M this fall season to bring you men's and women's apparel, as well as children's clothing, and accessories. 

Not one to normally stand on lines but, this is something not to be missed. The collection is set to drop November 13th, only 20 stores worldwide will have the complete collection, so be sure to check out H&M's website for locations. 

The designer, Rei Kawakubo, stated, "I have always been interested in the balance between creation and business. it is a dilemma, although for me creation has always been the first priority. It is a fascinating challenge to work with H&M since it is a chance to take the dilemma to its extreme, and try to solve it."

Kahlil Gibran

I had not heard of this book, until very recently and I'm sure you may not have either. This is a beautiful book. Gibran, the Lebanese poet and philosopher 1883-1931, writes a story of a man speaking to a town on the verge of his departure. They ask of home and work, and love, and good and evil, and he talks with them and guides them. Check it out.         

Opening Ceremony Does Japan!

Each year, Opening Ceremony will pick a country and highlight designers from said country in their New York and L.A. boutiques. (Last year's country was Sweden.) Just got word that come fall, Opening Ceremony's taking on Japan for a Japan vs. USA extravaganza -- meaning that OC will feature duds by Japanese designers including Green, G.V.G.V, Hiromi Tsuyoshi, Lad Musician, Porter, Vlas Bloome, End Pin, United Arrows (Beauty and Youth), Sabatino, Cosmic Wonder, John Lawrence Sullivan, N. Hollywood, Nude: Mashaiko Maruyama, Toga and Whereabouts. Additionally, in both the New York and L.A. outposts, OC will host the “Opening Ceremony presents Middle Space / Comme des Garcons shop" -- the entire CdG fragrance and wallet lines and selections from the Play collection will be on sale. Lastly but certainly not leastly, OC's teaming up with Sanrio (the brand behind Hello Kitty and Keroppi) for “Opening Ceremony Loves Sanrio." To spread the love, there will be pop-up Sanrio shopping stations throughout NY and LA.

adventures from fashion wk. part. 2 & 3

so the other night, Wednesday, I didn't really plan to go hard. My sis and me went to Castillo's to grub, which some how always manages to be a bad idea because we always end up with the itis. I'm sure you know what this means. Spanish food does this to the body. I mean how can you not eat vegetables, it bewilders me. I swear. Anyhow, after dinner we run into CW and head to the Rivington for some roof top party. We didn't stay but ended up getting some gift bag. It came with a shirt, a bottle of water, and a magazine. The roof top was pretty chill...

you think you can fuck with my city? you can't.

The M.O.B. x Missbehave party at the red bull, which ended up turning into another party cuz I dipped and went to the Tribeca grand, but I saw some homies there whom I haven't seen in a minute like T the Don, D the God  & J Hendi , but before the tri grand I some how managed to stroll into the Soho Grand and Lindsey was spinning the hotness...

hood girl hair, haha. 

my girl D was chatting it up with lindsey at the DJ booth, and I hadn't taken any pics all night. so that was the point of these 

im a real big fan of big collars, 

luckily at places like the Soho grand, I can rely on a well stocked bar. Therefore Hendricks is the drink of choice. And the fact that Time Magazine is on the bar, i thought was a good look.

antonio, myself and curtis. the lower half. (i need those boots curtis!, and those MMM's antonio! He SHITS. thanks)

adventures from fashion wk.

i call my boy. he tells me our other boy got juice on the y-3 store opening party. shorty is the asst. manager, (in there! i need a few things frm there, this jacket, those shoes, you know something light!) so we roll early as fuck cuz thats how it is. the prada party is also in full effect as well as the Marc by Marc. but who gives a ..... i had the joint with this, so we proceed. unfortunately i didn't bring the camera but the blackberry shows me just a small amount of justice on the pic situation. 

buck buck again!! 

haha still listening

the champagne was flowing quite nicely, and like i said there's a few things we might need to work with. these sneakers perhaps. 

i stumbled upon this building. it was being renovated and there was no one inside.

Could It Be?

I think I have to ask this question you know? I mean I can see it happening. I can imagine it all too well. And my god when he speaks, you actually think things can change, that the world really is amazing, and the one person has the power to show that, because the world is amazing. I just wonder man. Could this really happen?

In My Lifetime? 

Oh Yeah!
