ENLA for Nike Israel

For a long time I have been trying to explain this love of all things sneakers to my friends and family. I have pretty much given up trying to justify the passion and the expense... in any case, I hope this helps (even if just a little).

Louie Vuitton: Art, Fashion & Architecture

Lately I have been coveting things that I really have no reason to covet. My latest desire comes in the form of a book... this book to be specific:



I really do hope that I find a way to avoid spending money on things that I really do not need. Somehow, I feel like I am setting myself up for massive failure. Oh well...

Been a While...

It is about time I start blogging again. So I will. Coming back soon...

Casa Bey - Mos Def

Been a while since I have posted anything... when you have nothing to say, you have nothing to say.  So I'll let Mos say it for me with this video.

Writer's Block...

...is a bitch. Nuff Said.

But at least the shoes are fly!

Birthday Wishes...

My Birthday is coming up pretty fast... 9 days from now actually; and so, inspired by a friend of mine's blog -- Thanks Marjo -- (http://mjfromaroundtheway.com/), I have put together a list of my birthday wishes for the big 26. Since I already have the first thing on her list (new MacBook), I guess I will be starting with the birthday dress... oh wait, that's not right...

Benjamin Bixby Clothing

Madras Bow Tie (Retail Value: 95 USD @ Barney's)

Purple Polo (Retail Value: 95 USD @ Barney's)

Black Cashmere Cardigan (Retail Value: 695 USD @ Barney's)

The man in the car in this picture is Jeremy Clarkson, a 6'5" fat bloke from BBC's Top Gear... so I know I can fit.

Wow, with the exception on the Peel, it seems I have the most expensive taste in the world!

Peace and Moon Boots!

Super-High High Tops!

This morning made a special trip out to Live Stock (deadstock.ca) on West 4th to line up with approximately 40 other hopefuls in hope of getting my hands on a pair of the exclusive Nike Air Yeezy.  Even though I only arrived at 8am (and there were people who had already been there since 8pm the previous night), I somehow managed to move up to 4th in the line.  Luckily for me... and my campaign to keep my head... of the people there, I was the only one after an 11.5. So happy today!

May 2nd... the black joints drop.  Guess where I will be bright and early!
