HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!


Quick thought for you guys and girls.  Holidays are here which to me means time for friends and family.  Lately this world has become such a materialistic society which most of us are guilty of.  I hate losing site of the love my family and friends have for me and i hope that none of you take that for granted... this year has been amazing in many ways and sad at times.. losing someone so close to me was the hardest thing I had to go through this year.  That alone made me realize how truly blessed I am.  There are people in this world that do not like looking forward to these times of the year due to the fact that they have nothing to get or give.. and thats including love.  I'm here to tell everyone no matter who you are or where you stand there will always be someone that will love you for you.  God is love and never lose sight of that.



I LOVE YOU ALL... HAPPY HOLIDAYS

kinda where the hood and high fashion meet...


Just like the title says.. definitely a dope peacoat from the fall collection of Under-Two-Flags.  Street wear is huge now a days and these guys take it to another level.  You can be the indie dude rockin this stuff but then you can be a dude like me and make this look like it belongs on my back.. just saying.

Bachelor Pad FASHO!


Doing it big?!?!? yeah i think so.. this place is off Lake Geneva in Wisconsin. As i said and will always say aim high and i mean sky high so if you fall you'll land on the clouds.  Everything is within our reach and we should be truly happy with what we have. Even though it sometimes takes something, someone. or ourselves to finally realize that someone really does have it worse.. keep your head up and always dream BIG and never let the dream killers fuck it up. =] 


One Love

So last night was really something else.  Johnny Cupcakes is a really awesome dude with a pretty amazing story.  His little shindig last night at CSUF motivated me in a way you can't imagine. NO JOKE!!  Honestly words cant really describe it especially coming from someone other than the man himself.

HIGHEST PAID ATHLETE OF ALL TIME?!?!?!?

AND I MEAN ALLL TIME!!!!!.. Alright ladies and gents i came across this little F/F (fun fact) that i think everyone should know. When you first read the title who did you think about?? Jordan?? A-rod?? Beckham?!?!? Remember it said ALL TIME!! So just by saying that you can guess its none of the above.. It's actually some dude from way back in ancient times.  His name is Gaius Appuleius Diocles.  If you're thinking to yourself and wtf?!?!? don't trip i did the same thing.  He was a chariot driver back in Ancient Rome in the 2nd century.  The dude earned 35,863,120 sesterces which in today's market it about 15 billion dollars.  Wanna see the zeros??? $15,000,000,000..... damn if the dude was alive today with all that money I'm sure he would have all these "highest paid players" from our time in his backyard giving him grapes and wearing nothing but a damn loincloth lol.. nonetheless this dude definitely lived the highlife.

JOHNNY CUPCAKES EVENT!!!!


Alright so in one of my earlier posts i got to mention this dude that made a brand names 'JOHNNY CUPCAKES'... not gonna lie this dude is pretty amazing and so is his story.  Here is something he said.. short summary but perfect nonetheless... 

"Customers like and appreciate the story and work ethic behind my brand. I started this as a joke from the trunk of my beat up '89 Toyota Camry. A college drop out with a drug and alcohol-free lifestyle, I never wasted my time going out and partying but instead focused only on brainstorming and sketching up my wacky ideas. I turned down investors and took countless risks like keeping my shirts out of chain stores."

BusinessWeek voted him America's #1 Entrepreneur in '08 so you know this dude is legit.. i personally have been to his LA store and its pretty amazing with the way he was everything laid out for you. You honestly feel like you're in a cartoon bake shop! 


Sooooooo doooooooope and creative..  I really recommend you guys/girls going to his thing at CSUF.  It wont cost you a dime but i would take money to check out his shirts couse i know you will definitely want one. If not you can always go to his shop, BUT YOU NEED TO TAKE ME WITH YOU =]

Cyglo Night Bright LED TIRES!


Alright so this fixie game is getting way crazy..  customizing those bikes can get pretty heavy.  Having those dope ass rims, tires, pedals, handle bars, etc.. I came across these tires and yeah i know what you're thinking.. F*CKEN DOPE!!!!!!!!!!!! They light up as you roll which don't only look tight they actually have a sense of safety measure.  When you do those late night bike rides you can lead the pack so your boys can see you and those damn cars on the street. They'll definitely put a hole in your wallet but way worth it once you have em on your dope ass fixie.

I just have that certain lust for life...


I'm sure you guys/girls have seen me post this pic up before on my facebook.  You guys have to realize its stuff like this that should get us all to want bigger and better.  To me its not to say that "I'm better than anyone" but its nice to know you worked your ass off to be at a place where you can sit back chill and relax looking up and just thinking to yourself "daaaaaamn.... this is a badass place."  lol  and bullshit aside we all know we have those certain items that we worked our ass for and look at it and just kinda gasp and can't believe we have it.  Money is shit to me for those of you guys that don't know.  It always comes and goes so quit stressing.  The thing I cherish the most are those items that are just priceless to me.  I'm getting off topic but nonetheless.. we should all live in a place that we can be proud of.... Peace and Love

"LIFE AS SHE KNOWS IT"


Before I start I just wanna throw it out there i didn't take this pic.  I came across it and thought that someone did this for a reason and not just couse it looked "tight!" lol.. I told my friend [Giajaida Vargas] "impress me and tell me you did this!"its pretty sick so here's her story...

I call my photograph: "life as i know it" my photo keeps me calm. I took a picture of what means the most to me. My longboard is my ride when I want to disappear all I got to do is kick push. My kicks(shoes) are my first pair of hi tops. They were custom made by my boyfriend. And if you see by the bottom back of the shoe it says a quote. It defines our love. And my ipod signifies The music I listen to for inspiration. I love music and its a beautiful thing created. And when I have all three, nothing else stops me. I'm on another level, honestly. It's life as I know it.

Thanks for letting me use this Giajaida.. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!!!!!

MATT & KIM POMONA LAST NIGHT!!!


So this is where i was at last night.  For those of you that don't know who they are they're a band called "Matt and Kim."  Honestly the most fun and animated band I've ever got the chance to not only see but meet them on a personal level.  I got to see them again backstage to talk to them about the last show i saw them at and told KIM that she needs to do her BOOTY DANCE!!  [she does this dance every show where she has us hold her by the legs while an AFROJACK mix is playing in the background as she's dancing shaking her BOOTY!]..  i got to be one of the people to hold her right leg.. i kinda got a pic of it.  The show last night was EPIC; and for sure that's an understatement.  The way they light up and pump the crowd up is surreal to me.  When i first listened to them I thought to myself that this is not like any pop/indie group.  "They're two fucken normal people like you and I... they don't thrive off that fake fame shit,  they'll talk to you and acknowledge you as one of them and not just a fan." The first dude to come out that goes by HAWNAY TROOF said this.  Which btw is pretty damn weird but a fucken awesome person with an amazing story.. his music is ok too lol.  I've said this to one of my friends already and I'll say it again, "Even if you've never heard of em, I'll make you a fan by taking you to a show."  I stand by that couse that's just how fucken epic this band is!!!! THANKS MATT AND KIM FOR NOT ONLY PUTTING A BADASS SHOW BUT ALSO MAKING EVERY SHOW I GO TO A FUCKEN BADASS EXPERIENCE, MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT AND FOREVER A FAN.. -Lalo


NEW CD NOVEMBER 2nd GO GRAB THAT ISHHH!!! ITS CALLED SIDEWALKS!!

Kanye West- "POWER"


SNL last night.. This performance is awesome. The fact that he contrasts himself in red and everything else white just shows how he really is. His outfit just shows he can pull stuff off like this. The Mr. T chains he's got going on give it that extra cherry on his outfit (no pun intended) lol.. enjoy....  CLICK HERE

B:SCOTT

Brandon Scott is a sick ass designer. A while back me and my friends went on a little shopping spree at fashion island.  Went into AMERICAN RAG CIE which btw is a badass store.  I saw this jacket and ended up holding off on it. YES I REGRET IT! so i got a hold of his email and the dude actually emailed me back which was pretty cool.  I always respect when a designer or someone of his nature actually takes his time to write back personally to the people who put him where he's at.  Just like Mr. JOHNNY CUPCAKES!!! BRANDON SCOTT TOLD ME THAT HE'S GONNA MAKE SURE I GET THAT JACKET IN MY HANDS.  (im pretty sure im still gonna have to pay for it though) oh well as long as i have it this winter!!!!!

KICKS KICKS and more KICKS

Not gonna lie these are pretty dope.. kinda a change of taste but the grey carbon sequence and the red outlining looks pretty siiick.. BUMP!!!!

FIRST POST!!!!

So i saw this shirt and thought it was pretty damn cool just couse i always tend to go for those shirts that say certain stuff or have a certain meaning.. the shirt says "I PAID $10,000 DOLLARS FOR THIS SHIRT"  When i went to check how much it cost i didn't realize it actually cost TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!! hahahaha.. still pretty badass though.. and there are cheaper ones but remember WHAT THEY SAY IS WHAT IT ACTUALLY COST. LOL CHECK IT OUT
