[dressed] at work_starbucks


When I get dressed up for work, I get excited because at my job I have room for experimentation. I wear skinny jeans, a black studded belt, a Starbucks shirt I bought, and some black on black chucks.

The picture on the right, I pinned up my apron! It originally came all the way down pass my knees! I think it looks much cooler this way lol.
Keep it [dressed].

trend alert_man bag

I think a masculine man can totally pull off the man bag. Not just a "bookbag", but a bag that you carry in your hand lol. If your gay, it will come off soooo feminine

You must be really confident in your own skin to be succesful. 
Sound Off.

What I Wear: Field Trip

This photo was taken last year in highscool while I was on a field trip with my senior Environmental Science class. We were on assignment to visit a local river body/stream to collect water/organism samples. The trip overall was very boring and as usual, I had my camera along with me and I had to take that opportunity to showcase my perfectly designed outfit for the occasion.

1. Shirt - Hot Topic - $20.00
2. Necklace - Forever 21 - $10.00
3. Jeans - American Eagle - $30.00
4. Rainboots - Walmart - $15.00

Article: Trends vs. Fads

When people talk about trends and fads, most people don't know how to use either word correctly, so I'm going to define them for you today.

A fad is something that is "here today, gone" tommorow. For example, are leg warmers and parachute pants, the Atkins diet etc.

Trends on the other hand have staying power such as skinny jeans, hobo handbags etc. Both trends and fads can start off the same but one lasts much longer than the other.

aussie bum underwear

I have an extreme fetish for hot underwear. I think that yes, your underwear should be nice too and there are hundreds of companies that make cool wears, but I been seing them advertised a lot lately, I seen one of the models on Janice Dickinsons Modeling Agency wearing them so I decided to look them up.

aussieBum originally started out as a swimwear based in Australia in 2001, but until recently, they branched out to other ventures such as loungewear and underwear. The company is known for there creative lines, such as Essence underwear; which contains vitamins locked in the fibre which releases through the skin. Also they have underwear that called the WonderJock, that suppose to enhance the appearance of a mans 'jock'. Below here are an example of some of the WonderJocks.
I am totally considering purchasing some!
Sound Off.

[dressed] line_mjolk

 
The name of the line is pronounced ("mi-yelk"). Lars Stoten is the founder and head designer from Denmark who started this linein 2003 because he believed that mens "clothing [lacked] artisan craftsmanship. In an article from Nylon for Guys magazine, he said that he spent his childhood at a cutting table and sewing machine.

All of his pieces are edgy but wearable,"checked blue shirts with red buttons, knit vests, slim-fit jeans, bow ties and zippered knit cardigans.

Very trendy and original. And yes, the skinny jean will not die!! lolThis outfit for example is very wearable on the street. What makes it cool is that the detailing on the collar and the color choices in the shoes.

His clothing line debuts this summer in Australia. You can now purchase some pieces online at purestcut.com.

on my ipod_sam sparro

On iTunes, I downloaded the single of the week last week, and it was Sam Sparro. The name of the song that I got was "Black &  Gold". This guy is awesome. I love his sound because at first I thought he was black lol. 

If you like something you can really dance to, this song is it. Sparro's first single, "Cottonmounth", was released in 2007. Black and Gold is his second one and it debuted on the UK Singles chart at number twenty-three in March but than went to number four on March thirtieth.
