I didn't have much of an urge to "write" in my last post. I'm not a writer for those of you who come across all these grammar mistakes and spelling errors in my posts. I've said this before and I'll say it again, just in case you've stumbled upon my blog to read smart dainty postings with these fancy words, wrong blog homie. Now that that's said, I really wanted to pin point some bits and pieces from my last post. I was decked out in Bape; the brand that embodies one of the most influential street brand/life style/designer I personally feel is out there. Street wear has a huge impact in my (life) style and it's making a come back. I'm not gonna sit here saying that I was rolling with it from day one, but it's been with me since I fell in love with fashion, since I fell in love with hip-hop and the urban culture. I read a little blurb on Bobby Hundred's
instagram today where he spoke about this and it was as if he read my mind. Read it
here to see what I'm talking about and plus he has such a dope page, you should already be following him. The thing that's so different about street wear is that I feel like it's a community where we're all just rocking our heads to the same beat, like we just feel it and know. It's one of the few cultures where music is such a huge part of it and so is arts and all the other bits and pieces that make up this phenomenon.
I experienced an unforgettable experience last week with my loved ones. See, a huge part of why I got so into street wear and hip-hop is because of the two knuckle-head younger brothers I have. I'm lucky to have them because of all the dope influences they have on me. They always introduce me to dope brands, blogs, new shoe release dates, and most of all good music. I must say, they really do have a good taste in music for little kids (not really 'cus they're 6 ft). All three of us share a love for new school artist J Cole, so to us, he's like the Biggie or Pac of the 90's. It was obviously a huge deal for us to want to be a part of The Warm Up, Dollar and a Dream Tour. This post would get way to long if I was gonna explain the whole experience, but let me say it was unforgettable and the 10+ hours standing in line was so worth it. Not only would I never really do it for another artist, but the fact that I got to be a part of that with the bros was everything. See, I was gonna go into a whole splurge about my love for him again and everything else there is to say, but that'd take too long so let's leave it at that.
Changed my hair color a bit and added a little more layers. Thank to
Anna Lee, best hair stylist ever hands down!
