jolly good.

Who you foolin’ today? Hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful long Easter weekend full of family, love and treats!

Spring. Yous be a tease. I took advantage of the sunny beautiful weather we had and tried some layering with my Nike Dunk Sky Hi Wedges – City Pack “London” edition. Weeeee! These are the perfect sneaker to compliment any basic outfit with that pop of colour and plaid pattern. Super love. Secret height don’t hurt either for shawty’s like me.
This army green jacket from Club Monaco is the perfect layering piece for any season and caters to any style or colour pairings. My favourite part about it is the subtle asymmetrical cut in the back. Definitely a must have staple in any closet!

GARB TENEMENT

Garb what?

Garb Tenement!

Back in 2008, my boy and style partner Duane, a.k.a “Duane Baby” a.k.a “Baby D”, a.k.a President and CEO of Garb Tenement asked me to style their lookbook for their new line of dope hip hop tee’s for mens that they planned to sell online.

I was honored by the offer, but I hesitated. I never styled mens before, and I wasn’t confident enough at the beginning to do the job, but the whole Garb Tenement team put their trust and encouragement in me, and believed that everything would turn out perfect, and it did!

Might I also add that I had 1/2 an hour to whip out the wardrobe….weeeeeeeeeerrrdd!

After confirming a simple theme with an all white appeal, and “daily mens tasks” (haha), I had a better feel of what kind of vibe they were looking for.  Again, with the help of the best collabo team from the Black Widow photo shoot, this would have not happened without  them!

Needless to say, it was pure fun, jokes and no doubt a learning experience!
Look out for Garb Tenement!
