The only thing I need now is a few new lens(specifically a wide angle), tripod and video rig. Can't wait!

Ahh, I'm so incredibly happy right now! Yesterday I bought my new Canon Eos 7D. Absolutely love it! Its not as heavy as some claimed and feels solid in my hands. The video is fantastic and overall a great buy. I took it by my old job today to get a feel. Check out the pics below!

Creativity is something very dear to me. Everyone is capable of creative thought, they just have to think outside the box. Its a beautiful phenomenon that strikes spontaneously. It is your duty however to choose what you want to do with this thought. Let it fade away and be forgotten or work with it to create something innovative if not new. Jimi Hendrix did the latter.
His music wasn't just rock and roll, it was something completely different. Poetic lyrics and dreamy tunes, his art was deep, metaphorical and very philosophical (albeit most were just drug-induced rambling). Nonetheless he's an inspiration to be different, creative and original. With that I leave you with one of my fav's of his, the wind cries Mary!

Fashion week felt really somber. Maybe its just me, but everything felt and looked a tad conservative. Whats happening? Richard Chai's selections looked as bland and pasty as the models wearing them. Max Azria's BCBGMAXAZRIA collection looked like everything was dipped in beige. Seriously...I know its the fall collection but where's the flair, the sheen, the plaids atleast?!
But nonetheless, a few designers got it right. Here are my two favorite picks:
Duckie Brown!
Design duo Steven Cox and Daniel Silver produced yet another beautiful collection reflecting their punk rock meets urban chic vibe. Their signature heavy scarves weren't as visible as their past shows but naturally made an appearance. I fell in love with their multicolored microtweed selections! Absolutely gorgeous. My only complaint were their seemingly "too late" moment with their plaid selections. Sorry guys, but its not 2007!
MIK CIRE by ERIC KIM
If you thought Monarchy had an edgy attitude, you've got to see Designer Eric Kim's Mik Cire label! Made for a true rocknrolla, Mik Cire's collection is a resounding echo of Kim's badass approach to look. Its rough, raw but at the same time refined. His tight-fitted biker jackets, waxed zipper jeans and knee high boots reflect the attitude you'll only find in a 1%er biker bar. Acompany to style was the impeccable sheen of the clothing. I may be bias here, but if it shines, i want it!
Well lets not be too judgy yet. Still waiting for an AWE moment which might not arrive till maybe the Paris Fashion week but I will keep you all posted!

My excitement for fashion week just took a U-turn. This morning I woke up to a text from a friend saying Alexander McQueen had died from an apparent suicide. Suddenly I felt a dark cloud cloaked over my day.
The man was a genius and profound influence on the fashion world. His designs were revered as some of the most beautiful in contemporary history. Sadly, now the world will never see another piece from him. Nonetheless, I hope he is in a better place now.
You will be missed Lee Alexander McQueen.

Yes, its finally here! The Mercedez Benz New York Fashion week is finally here! Oh how happy I will be! Seven whole days of seeing aesthetic beauty and luxurious fabrics dragged across a runway by scrawy, under-fed men and women. Its truly an eye opener. If anyone has passes please don't be mean and hit me up!
Why am I so excited anyways? Well I'm always fond of the F/W shows more than anything. Its my favorite fashion season and definitely helps me subdue my constant shopping addiction by giving me a chance to see what might end up in my closet the coming months.
Anyways I'm excited and can't wait to see the shows. What I'm most excited about is Diesel, Phillip Lim, G-Star Raw and Duckie Brown. All are incredible brands composed of incredible designers and naturally, incredible clothing.
Well anywhoo, I will keep you all updated on what I see and like. I've made some predictions and praying they are correct(such as the heavy emphasis on military styles, more solid, shiny fabrics, more rugged styled shoes etc)!
Also, to all my female readers, I'm sorry but I won't be divulging much into women's wear for obvious reasons but I'm sure you can check out my good friend and fellow blogger Angie here for her opinions on whats hot in the chicks section!
Adios friends, and enjoy the week!
