A Day in Brooklyn...

Today I was pretty upset because I was missing a great event that Pharrell was hosting, Kidult Leadership Conference. Further more I was upset because I knew about HELLAS ago. I just failed to do my part to be apart...catch my drift. 

Anywhoo I compiled a list of yards/estate sales that I wanted to hit up for the day last night. However this morning I could not find the list....*Tear*. I was soooo upset. However, I was able to hit up at least one of them that was on the list. I found a dope 70s leather fringe vest for 8 bones aka $$$. After it gets tailored it's going to be PERFECTION!

After that I was on my way to the Brooklyn Museum to check out "A Day of Brooklyn Style". This featured a fashion show, panel discussion and other activities. The panel discussion spoked about the great culture & style that has been cultivated in Brooklyn from art, music, and fashion. It's was quite intriguing how they spoke of their beloved Brooklyn borough. Soon after there was a fashion show featuring designers from Etsy.com, established designers and recent grads from Pratt art school. Some of the designs didn't tickle my fancy but for the most part the designs where dope. Every designer besides the ones from Pratt hailed from Brooklyn.  

      

Once that was over I felt a little rumbly in my tumbly...lol. So I decided to get some New York style pizza...mmmmmm. 

After I was good and satisfied I was on my way to The Brooklyn Circus<--click... a dope streetwear brand that embraces Brooklyn and well-tailored street wear to the upmost. Walked in the joint and just as I imaged a beautiful store front with kool and laid back folks...just as I like. After leaving the Brooklyn Circus...what do you know.....A BLOCK PARTY!!!! WHAT! Kids were running around, burgers were on the grill and people were grooving to the tunes of a sweet reggae band. I was LOVING the atmosphere. I was becoming more Brooklyn by the second. Well I don't want to bore/make you jealous/interested about my day any longer. Here are some photos and videos I took a long the way...check, check, check it out!

The Greatest Together On Stage!

This is my favorite rap song ever and personally I think the best rap song ever. Here Jay-Z and Eminem performing "Renegade" On David Letterman.

People Smoke Even...BABIES!

I mean most kids try cigs around the age of 11-12, which is young but they have nothing on this 2 year old Indonesian baby who took his first drag at 18 months. He's puffing two packs a day, like a G too! He's taking drags as if he was ol' dude that stands in front of the liquor store. The worst part is that his father thinks he is perfectly fine...WHAT!?!? What is this world coming too?

P.S. Take a gander at his leather jacket and how he so gracefully twirls his "fag" between his baby fingers, unbelievable!

Funny Right?...

So I totally forgot that I had this in my phone! I just so happened to be at the Galleria Mall in St. Louis one day and saw that this Asian man was totally sleep. I stared at him for awhile to see if he was going to wake up. Fortunately he didn't which lead to me capturing this image on my cell phone. Falling asleep in public places is pretty common, I remember I fell asleep in Target one day...never again though lol....

Sneaker Pick For The Day...

Greedy Geniu$

Working like a Genius lol

I figured since that I'm always posting sneakers that are in decent condition...I might as well post my daily work shoes! These sneakers were given to me for free by a Greedy Genius representative over a year ago. I've been through a lot in these shoes. You can tell just by staring at them really! This is that one pair of shoes you know you don't need, but you keep them anyway! My pick of the day...well everyday...when I work! lol

John Wall.... The Next Big Thing

This years NBA Draft was definitely was one too remember. Five Kentucky players were drafted in the first round and the best was obviously John Wall who was picked number one overall. He has already made a name for himself in the NBA by signing

with Reebok; also joining superstars like Allen Iverson and Peyton Manning. Here is

his first commerical with REEBOK.
