Headpieces by Nixon
so if/maybe God is a DJ... do his headphones look kinda like this sexy pair from Nixon? i hope they sound as good as they look. their site says "coming in December" so, ok, we're in December now... gimme
The Master Blaster (an over-ear studio quality headphone), The Nomadic (an on-ear travel headphone) and The Wire (an in-ear headphone) were all built from the ground up after two years of research and design, with retail price points between $40-$200 USD.

the Fancy Files
ok, so if you know me... you probably know Fancy. if you don't, you're missin' out, because she is the best dogg ever! the best dogg with the worst breath... until now! On Monday, she had some serious work done on her grill... Dr. Surgeon of ANC in New Rochelle extracted 16 teeth. I went to him because he specializes in dental work on geriatric dogs... However, I would not recommend him. He called me in the middle of the surgery to tell me "this is worse than I thought"... why is that necessary? get the job done! don't call me and make me freak out even more. I got to the office a little early and I heard his assistant remove the tube from Fancy's trachea. not a pleasant sound... and for the the $2000 I paid (charged me $700 more than his max estimate, during the $168 consultation) why can't HE do it himself? or does that cost extra?
Anyway, maybe you're thinking $2000 is too much to spend on a dog. I don't care what you think. I admit there was a huge procrastination on my part, because I was affraid of the effects of anesthesia on a 14yr old dog. But the issue was: Fancy was not feeling good & I had to make her get better. There's nothing I wouldn't do for her... and that includes maxing out my credit card
pics of her new grill coming soooon.

Teach the Babies
My home girl Alexandra, of Cespedes Studios, put me on to this conscious clothing brand. She blessed me with a "stop going to jail tee" a few months back... haven't been to jail since! new shirts from the good people of Coup d'etat Brooklyn. Their "Teach the Babies" campaign is infectious... We’ve all heard the ancient African Proverb, “it takes a village to raise a child” but have you ever acted on it? The complex issues that face today’s youth will never be fully addressed by parents and family members alone. The personal and professional advancement of our young people requires a collaborative effort on all fronts – from parents, educators, the community at large, and most importantly, YOU. Young people today have been misguided, misinformed and miseducated by irresponsible adults who set negative examples or simply don’t care enough to make a difference. It’s time for our generation to take the weight. Volunteer, teach, mentor or just BE. Be a living example. Be a role model. Be the one to make a difference today. TEACH THE BABIES
Inspired by the future First Family. Barack and Michelle Obama has been an inspiration to us all, and knocking down stereotypes and boundaries while at it. This is coup d'etat Brooklyn's tribute to that greatness! Coming Soon!
this DUM MC'S "Got Nothin' to say!" shirt is from their Mens collection. I wish they had it in womens sizes... because I concur 100%. buy it here

Nike Air Force 1 + Krink
Amongst a list of well known celebrities and athletes who had the opportunity to collaborate on a pair of Air Force 1’s, well known graffiti artist KR (or Krink) designed this set. Each force displays the trademark dripping paint from Krink. Both pairs are gum bottom, that compliments both colorways nicely.

Keds are not just for kids
I'm late on this, but these shoes are cute... For Spring 2007, Nanette Lepore and Keds came together to bring you a collection of feminine, fun, whimsical flats with distinctive prints that are stylish and self expressive. Inspired by the style and personality of Audrey Hepburn, these shoes are playful and graceful with many thoughtful details, including special materials like satin and fraffia, great prints like stripes and romantic scripts and fun embellishments like bows and jewels. Classic, chic and self-expressive.
(I just saw these in the window of a shoe store today.. They came out in the spring) Pretty cute, right? The weather isn't right for this type of shoe anymore. However, the KEDS has them on sale for $25 now
These wedges would cute for the Fall though... $60
