Poutine

I havent been posting due to a recent trip to Montreal, where I have discovered another wonder of the world. Poutine! It is cheesy, saucy, and delicious. It consists of french fries, curded cheese, and gravy. Although new chefs fuse it with pork, duck and other meats, poutine is best plain.

Balenciaga Mittens

With the winter months quickly approaching, you need some great winter gloves. I usually lust after Paul Smith striped mittens. This winter however, these Balenciaga mittens might have to be my new object of affection. They feature thumb holes, staying true to the classic fingerless gloves. Balenciaga quality is impeccable, so obviously they will feature a hefty price tag.

Big Sean - Getcha Some

Haven't heard a lot of Big Sean recently, but he is really starting to blow up. Hope to see more good stuff like this from Sean. The video is filmed all over the Bape stores in Japan, like Bape Kids and Bapexclusive. Sean heavily reps Bape, BBC, and Burn Rubber in this video. G.O.O.D. Music is going to blow up in '09/'10

Band of Outsiders x Sperry

Ever since I can remember, I've been wearing Sperry. Sperry Bucks, Boat shoes, etc. Now, one of my favorite brands (Band of Outsiders) is collaborating with my go to brand (Sperry). The shoes look great, but considering the high price of past collaborations I will likely only purchase the high top boat shoes. Stay tuned for mure info on this upcoming release.

Swims Galoshes

Norweigan company Swims makes amazing quality Galoshes as well as other rainwear. You can find these in Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, and other similar stores. If you are living in a rainy place, I definitely recommend these. They also make great umbrellas that are extremely easy to open and close. They have been featured in GQ, so you know that they are reliable.
