-The perfect 10 contrast, has the bold 2 tone of a varsity jacket yet has the accents that you would see on a private school uniform.
- The perfect 10 wool, is a tweed jacket that is derived from the textiles that what we normally see our teachers wear to class.
-The schools out cardigan, takes a Catholic school cardigan and gives it a military style feel through patch work, which creates a paradox.
-The flannel east version 2, is the second coming of our best selling item ever that we incorporated into this collection by giving it black paneling
-The class shirt, is a contemporary piece. We use short colors and private school style plaid accents to give it a bold and distinct look.
- The portman, is inspired by Fonzy from the “Happy Days”. Its his leather jacket but as a hoodie!

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

One of our HomeRoom contest winners Riri had sent me this picture today. She went to school with Gian HomeRoom when she was in kindergarden. Look at Gian at age 10. Already looking 18.

When i met gian at age 14 he had a full beard. That’s a fact Jack!

Look at Gian at age 21 already looking 30.

Now look at me.

why so serious?

Top videos of yesteryear

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

Benny Gold hit me up today with this video…

…I was in the 7th grade when this song came out. Which got me thinking about my favorite videos as a kid growing up.

number one: Pharcyde - Drop (This video had great concept for its time)

number two: Green Day - Basket case (this video taught me a lot about the appeal of contrasting colors)

number 3 Nas- If I ruled the world (Nas and Lauren Hill on the same song back then would be like, Louis Vuitton and Ferrari making a motorcycle together, back then Hip-hop and R&B did not mix.)

Hi!, Fashion.

Gucci unveiled there new spring 09 line 2 months ago or so, and it still hasn’t grown on me. I really like their current line though. It has a  military meets the Hampton’s feel to it. That juxtaposition is simple yet unique.

It seems to me that Gucci’s spring 09 season is evolving into the Miami Beach meets 21 jump street. Not sure if I’m a fan yet.

But, I am a fan of the new shoe collection from the Spring 09 line.

Good Times!
