I wanted to design a winter line that was very layer able. A line that can be worn during all seasons. The technique of using thin yet tightly woven materials was my theme for this collection. This engineering breaks the wind, repels water and keeps u warm during the winter, yet its thin enough to where in the spring you wont feel hot wearing it. Homeroom for all seasons!

Much props to My Mama, Gian, Ding, Ska, and Kris (in no particular order)…the homeroom team for making this winter season our best to date.

Here’s a sneak peek at the “geo-tastic sweater”. This just 1 of 7 cut and sewn pieces. Much, much more.

Best costume of the night: Verizon wireless; its all about the network.

Its good to know that my finance degree comes in handy every once in a while.

Here at HomeRoom we’re dedicated to making quality products and inventing ways to save you hundred thousand dollars too.

Hangin with the homie! In LA still.

On Saturday i had brunch with Maurice from Vapors mag. Always have the most interesting conversations with Maurice. We figured out that the homeless are single handily responsible for the reemergence of the vintage trends, and hipsters.

Homeless: drink cheap beer (Pabst)
Hipsters : drink cheap beer (Pabst)
Homeless: look like the haven’t washed their hair recently
Hipsters: look like they haven’t washed their hair recently
Homeless…. and it went on for an hour………

We had the bar make us red beer.

3/4’s corona, 1/4 bloody marry mix, salted rim and a lime.

Perfect with steak! But, only have one red beer per month. You might get kidney stones or some other ungodly health problem from too many of these. And, you know how to get rid of kidney stones right…yea…and u thought aliens probing you was your worst nightmare.

MONDAY

I am blessed to be surrounded by so many successful people on the daily. O look..someone is taking a box cutter to the Lambo…cool!

O!…its just Eric from Monarchy Jeans working on his Lamborghini Gallardo. It must be nice to just start cutting up your premium Italian sports car up like it was a civic at a “pick and pull”.

Eric had a twin turbo kit put on and a bunch of other mods that get him 700+ Horse Power to the wheels. Eric might be the only one in the world to have a Twin Turbo Gallardo.

This is Andreas…One of the guys behind FiveFour. I’m writing this blog from his apartment right now. Five Four has come a long way. Their entrance into the contemporary market is suiting for them and with talented designers like Emon and Davi, they are sure to be one of your favorite contemporary lines in the near future.

good night

..you too little one!

I venture down the block from my temporary residence to the Rouge Status showroom/ design studio/Graf wall/ Honda Ruckus scooter haven/ bike haven/ a lot of cool shit in the back of the store area.

I was greeted by the homie Matt Comer, GM of Rogue and an all around good guy.

and Oak whom i met in Frisco a little while ago.

Big ups to the Rogue Boys. They have a great vision and a great company.

After working a long day. We at the work spot in LA decide to take a little poker and Jack in the box break.

Doing great game two,after losing quick in game one.

I used to be a horrible player. Now I’m steady winning.

Ryan Ding would have been proud. As Ryan can recall I’m now known for four of a kind hands. This proved to be true once again. Mike from Akomplice. Showing his poker face

While driving along highway 5 you come into a tunnel vision like state of mind. Where anything under 80 mph feels like your crawling. Once in awhile you’ll find a pack cars that you can team up with, on your journey to LA at 100 mph +. Everyone knows the drill…we all go at 100 mph and they can only catch one of us.

An hour before the grapevine i saw it despit my tunnel vision…a brand new gas station…with a huge parking lot of paved tarmac…If this wasn’t a perfect chance to go drifting, then i wouldn’t know.

one square mile of pavement
+ rear wheel drive manual sc300
= drifting

I need new tires now =]

Soon as i got to LA in went to the Leroy Jenkins Shoe release party. Met up with the United trade show boys and the diamond fam!

As always Diz of Diamond shows me a good time. The waiter was a tweaker and brought us an 8 ft. tall menu

here are some pics from the MASH premiere… you can check out the rest here!
