Room Scents

Vincent — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 21:29:18 +0000

I am a sucker for anything that has to do with room scents. I find it to be a fundamental detail most people forget when designing a space. I am most efficient when I work with the soothing smell of a good candle. These are a few of my favorites: wtaps Agape air refreshener, visvim Blaise Mautin room spray, retaw Clooney candle & supreme incense. Honorable mentions to Baxter’s Black Jasmin candle, and A.P.C.’s Fleur D’Oranger candle.

This area is possibly the most dangerous neighborhood; financially speaking. Will post up some of my pickups sometime this week.

I WISH THEY MADE THIS FOR GIRLS | Kelley

Vincent — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 06:32:56 +0000

The amount of times I’ve actually heard a girl say “I WISH THEY MADE THIS FOR GIRLS” when looking at boys’ clothes goes beyond memory. From that quote, I’ve begun a little Photo Series project with some of the most gorgeous women in my life. Done right, the series should have that inexplicable umph most guys feel when waking up and seeing a girl in his t-shirt and boxers. Dressed in my clothes, they will, one by one be featured on the blog. Here is the first of many to come.

New York | Part Two

Here are more visuals of my trip. I was stationed at 21mercer on my first night, working on live photo editting during the cocktail party for Fashion’s Night Out. The hotel I stayed at (Tribeca Grand Hotel) was absolutely overwhelming, from the commendable & meticulous service to the generously offered malin+goetz shower kit, everything had me looking forward to a good night’s rest.

Muji is always a must.

This year’s lookbook forced me in there.

What Did You Wear Today

The term WDYWT is no stranger to any forum members’ vocabulary. I joined the SUFU & Hypebeast forums somewhere in 2006. It was a great time for young thinkers like myself and some of my other peers who have now made a name for themselves. In fact, it was a fundamental step into making this blog as successful as it is. People were a lot more open-minded and tolerant toward failure and poor knowledge. It wasn’t always so frenetic as it is today; just isn’t the same nowadays. This post is purely for nostalgic reasons, somewhat of a tribute to those times when one could share his own way of putting pieces together without getting frowned upon. To all the old members from the greater times (you know who you are), I salute you and make sure to check-in, in the comment section!

I’m wearing:
Visvim Vis101 GIZA Jacket
Our Legacy Oxford Shirt
Porter Smoky 2way Briefcase
Supreme 08 Chino Pants
Visvim Suede Virgil-Folk
Tanner 3sixteen Bracelet
Jcrew Timex Watch

Photography: Nic Fensom

Having worked with names like Nike & Burton, Nic’s photography work is exactly what I’d like to do if I were to pursue a career in photography. You may also recognize some of his work from Sneeze Magazine…he is the Editor-in-Chief after all. If you check out his website: here, you will notice that his photos scream the letters N.Y. In fact, I get the impression of watching screens of Woody Allen & Scorcese movies with a strong mix of Larry Clark. We met a few months ago for a Supreme gear transaction…a purist when it comes to the blog vs magazine feud, it may be nice to sit down and get an interview from him.

Hebdomadaire

I’m gonna write this post like a series of twits. I just got back from soccer (football), I’m tired, so no structured text for tonight…just some thoughts of the week

Started a new pair of Raw for the next year, they’re Stussy deluxe: made in japan, let’s see how they hold up. So far so good, the denim is pretty rigid, it makes me sleep well at night. I switched my luggage system over to porter: new wallet, new daily shoulder bag. Got some reading material. Love issue 1 of Inventory, i’ll be subscribed. Supreme vol.5 was kind of a fail, JA saved the issue. Only upside is the translated text. Clark (murakami cover) is damn good.

Umbro Supreme

Since i’m the “Can you find me ___” guy. I was looking for Bad Brains supreme gear for Maura. In the middle of my search i ended up finding this on sale at 45$ so i clicked medium, proceed, payment option: Paypal, and spent money I don’t have. Curse you paypal…

Product Fundamentalism

For some reason I don’t like putting my blackberry to sleep mode when I sleep…You never know when an important email or text message might come in. Once in a while I’ll get an email at 3am exactly, when I’m unlucky it’s a fucking promotional email from GoDaddy.com and when I am lucky, the title says Supreme. Why do I always get it at 3am, am I the only one??? Anyhow, the other night, can’t recall precisely which one it was, I get the Supreme & Nike SB email…(moment of reflection) Does it feel weird to anyone else? For some odd reason, as the words Nike SB and Supreme rolled through my half asleep eyes, it sounded a little passé to me. Don’t get me wrong, they definitely aren’t half as ugly as those 2007 and early 2008 Vans collaboration they came out with. It just felt as if James Jebbia received a check in the mail from Nike in order to salvage what’s left of this suffering Nike department’s reputation. Maybe I’m over thinking…

On to something interesting. Some of you already know that the next issue of Streetwear Today features an extensive interview with Mr. Nakamura. I somehow got a hold of the full interview in a PDF format, don’t ask me how. The magazine itself is pretty hard to come by, unless you are subscribed so write me an email and I’ll send it to you if I like you.

Here is the title page/teaser
