Stussy x Hello Kitty

They are quick to condemn this shirt over at LIMITEDHYPE, but I’m not so sure… I mean, I would never wear it (which makes sense, since it’s for girls) but I do think it’s kinda fun…

uniform experiment x John Smedley | Crew Neck Sweater | $400

I like to see this, because I think it means crew necks are making a comeback, at least in the sweater arena. I always feel like a doofus when I wear a t-shirt underneath a V-neck sweater, but (1) I don’t like wearing collared shirts on an everyday basis and (2) I can’t find a nice, slim crew neck anywhere. Hopefully this is a sign of good things to come.

Maintaining a buzz cut during the winter in Los Angeles is no big deal since the coldest it ever gets is 65, and that only lasts for like two weeks. Philly is a different story. I’m finding myself faced with the necessity of wearing hats, and it sure is difficult to find ones that will keep you warm while not making you look like an idiot. I think these fit the bill, though… At least the dude in the picture is looking pretty fresh.

UNBOXING: My First Gilt Groupe Purchase

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 00:32:17 -0400

A boring box from UPS…

Oooh, but the inside is nice and dark and branded…

The boxes within the box…

A nice faux-handwritten note from the founders of Gilt…

Gourmet L’Due in Grey Canvas…

Gourmet L’Due in Red Epi Leather…

Overall an excellent experience. I ordered the shoes at Gilt’s incredibly low, members only prices on Friday and had them in my hands on Tuesday. Again, here is my personal invitation link if you’d like to sign up. That said, I’m starting to feel like a shill for Gilt considering I’ve posted that link more than once in the past couple weeks; I’ll ease up from here on out, I promise.

This is the scooter I mentioned last night. Pretty rad and pretty cheap. I love how it looks super rugged and minimalist at the same time. Check it.

Where The Wild Things Are x Medicom | Toy Figure Collection

I’m highly skeptical that the new Where the Wild Things Are movie will be any good (though I’d love to be wrong) since it’s based upon a book with 10 sentences. At least if it isn’t, we’ll have these cool toys to play with… I’d say these are long overdue.

This post is intended primarily for my friends at USC and other Trojan fans… So read on if you’re one of those people, and if you’re not, well… You should probably seriously consider becoming a Trojan fan (since we are the best).

Anyway, I’m sure you know that Charlie Weiss is talking shit like a bitch and actually thinks he is going to beat us this year. Keep in mind this is a coach whose greatest win is a loss (to USC, in 2005, duh). Obviously we are going to beat the everliving hell out of them, but—just in case—you’d better get decked out in as much USC gear a possible.

That’s where the glasses come into play. You should buy them and wear them. They are fresh, inexpensive, and they are sold and distributed by USC students. Plus they are sure to actually come in handy as sunglasses when you are sitting around the Coliseum for two hours before games because you wanted to get the good seats.

Inventory | Mark McNairy Bucks | $350

These are some serious shoes. I’ve been looking for something more sophisticated than sneakers—but still crispy fresh— for a while, and these just might fit the bill. If I could just find them for 80% off I’d be all set!

Yamaha x ilovedust | Giggle Moped

You know, I’ve been thinking that scooters are pretty rad lately. Now that I live in Philadelphia, I am thinking that it could be a viable means of transportation (at least during the warmer months). This one from Yamaha is pretty dope looking… Well, I think the custom styling by ilovedust looks pretty stupid, but the silhouette is pretty fresh. I remember seeing another awesome scooter in an issue of Monocle a few months back, too… They just might be making a surge in the States sometime soon, I think (and, yes, I realize that Monocle is a British magazine).
