Formal Friday

The holiday season brings along cheer, good spirits, and a tingling crisp shivering feeling called winter; now I'm far from a Scrooge but just like all the smiles mean extra during this time one has to wear extra. This is a perfect way to keep that smile if of to bundle your ass up and stay warm and listen to mama and wear your coat. With the purchasing of a coat comes the universal need to be stylish and stay warm, a winter coat can compliment a formal, semi-formal or casual look and here are three ways that can be done.

SEMI FORMAL

A parka can remind you of the numerous snowballs fights from your youth but Parkas are that tough non-technical coat that say you don't want to be cold but are not necessarily worn to a boardroom meeting. That's why a semi-formal look work with one because when one of your friends that you had the snowball fights in the past invites you to that dinner party and you want to dress to impress.

FORMAL

The Duffle Coat exemplifies class debuting as the standard for the Naval industry back in the day. It means you are taking care of business and go perfectly with that boardroom meeting suit, it has the formal look to reassure you mean business.

CASUAL

The Camel Coat is like that coat you see your pops wearing and just seems like the everyday coat you know the one he wears to work, to the soiree and to the grocery too. It has the classic look and has been around for a while and just works perfect for that quick casual trip out the crib.

Wet t-shirt Wednesday!! Marisa Miller

I love the fact that Marisa Miller loves surfing! I don't know why but there are plenty of females out there who love surfing but she just makes the thought of surfing sexier lol. She is a beauty and I'm hoping there are no cosmetic procedures because she looks young as ever. But I will just sit back and keep looking at these pictures I posted up.

Bill Belichick State Of Mind

Bill Belichick is dedicated to the mastery of his art, which is coaching football. I tend to find inspiration in totally opposite aspects of life. I've never played football in my life I'm just a fan but what Bill has done with The Patriots and the Patriot mind state resonates very well with what I believe you need in order to succeed in life. He is always focused on the mission and does not get caught up with the moment.

I've found myself to be very similar in my thinking ways to Bill Belichick, I don't usually celebrate too much with most tasks at hand and I'm always planning steps ahead of whats going on at the moment. Since I was a teenager I admired the way Belichick handled business and I think I really subliminally adopted the way he thinks. Now I have to apply it even further because my team has a starting quarter back of our own in my brother Zulu Faz and I intend to apply the Bill Belichick State Of Mind in order to pursue our dreams and help my brother become the greatest he can ever be.

Wet t-shirt Wednesday!! Kate Moss

God took his time to piece this work of art together. Its not just her looks that I admire its how she accentuates everything she puts on. She looks great with clothes on and she looks great naked or half naked however you want to look at it.
I always look at women like art and enjoy their various facets including their curves, their face and their skin tone. Kate Moss is really one to admire and she is a work of art. Sometimes I'm so amazed by her and when she models clothes; the clothes just just mess with her body and looks as if they were made only for her. Her face is very distinctive and reminds me of how distinctive Naomi Campbell's face is and her skin tones always seems to match the feel of whatever she is modeling at the time. What I'm trying to say is Kate Moss conveys the messages with her looks no matter what she's trying to do. I could go on all day but I need to go and collect some checks.

Out of Print

Okay here is a very ingenious idea find classic novel covers of classic works of literature and bring them back to life through fashion. With the digital age still continuing to grow the idea and emphasis of the classic book cover might be challenged and the connection we have when we read a novel and its literary make-up will further lack that nostalgic feel when looking back further down the road. By involving authors, publishers and artists classic covers and covers that make classic artwork are brought to life along with a mission to help those out without books; for each purchase a book is sent to those who are in need of these resources.










Also I'm proud to say I read all but three of these books
