Karolina Kurkova normal?
This picture was shown to me by one of my fashion friends. It’s from Sao Paolo fashion week courtesy of Celebrity Smack!
Pictures like these are always going to illicit comments about the disparity between models and the general public. Fashion insiders will declare this women unfit to walk the runway. They’ll say she’s too fat [...]

the Prada in the islands
i recently made a trip out to the islands to visit some family and spend some quiet days relaxing by the beach. Like always I made plans to go to at least four different beaches, but those plans quickly fell through once I had seen that the renovations on the shopping malls had been completed [...]

aging hipster
I turn thirty in a few years.
I’ve thought that every day for the past year.
I am no longer a child capable of blaming my inexperienced youth for my stupid mistakes. Now when I make mistakes, it’s me who is at fault. I can’t hide behind an idealistic and slightly inebriated perspective of the world at [...]

new Tom Ford ads
I’m slowly getting back into the blogging thing, because with all this extra time on my hands for the summer I might as well voice my opinion to anyone who will listen right?
So, I thought the picture to my right might be a good start. If you haven’t heard already, this is one of the [...]

men’s brooches
i understand that the classic american mentality of masculinity doesn’t afford the typical male of being able to maximize the amazing power of the accessory.
even with the surge of tie pins, tie clips and cuff links in the men’s fashion market place, the timepiece reigns supreme and with a fist that seems to overshadow all [...]

new job
with my recent move to chicago, I’ve obviously had to start a new job. And as always with major changes in my life, I’ve had to stubbornly focus on that single aspect until I’ve reached a certain level of comfort with it.
Hence my blogging has been nonexistent.

fashion ennui
i prefer not to write about fashion shows because when they do occur, every gay jane and mary has something to pollute the blogosphere about how ugly something was or how impractical it was. i obviously respect the opinion of a few, but for the most part, it’s all garbage. that’s just my FYI.

guest:thor progeny
i asked some of my friends to write guest entries relating to what i guess occupies most of this blog; they mostly ended up with comments on the fashion world. i’m slightly concerned on whether that makes me incredibly superficial or not. Regardless, here is a short story written by my friend. Hopefully you enjoy [...]

watching this…
…got me thinking. when in the world, did i let my ever revolving image transform itself into an asian doppelganger for the famous blood-squirting druggie? i think it started with my black skinny jeans. it had to have been. before i knew it, i was draping myself in these [...]

The ever increasing popularity of Aloha Rag has been surprising: i remember going there on my last trip to Honolulu and thinking, “it’s so small.” But, their website has been slowly stepping up it’s quote unquote game – for the lack of a better word – ever since and their collection of demeulemesster and lim [...]
