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 [...]

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.

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 [...]

i broke down
the phillip lim store on mercer in soho has been open since july of this year, but i have already made countless trips with friends after falling in love with his easy designs and gorgeous colors.

lost luxury luster
I picked up this book last time I was at the B&N.
I’m about a third of the way through but am already impressed with much of the information she was able to uncover.

fashion to me has always been a love-hate relationship. i perfer to view it as a series of functional art pieces and am willing to pay “obscene amounts of money” ala pretty woman on items that i view as high design and luxury quality.

3.1 phillip lim
i hate to admit it, but i’ve been obsessively checking on all the asian designers during new york fashion week to forgo the usual scrutiny i reserve for some of the bigger houses.
that’s like incredibly racist, but hey. whatever. life is not fair.
