Do you most often shop online, in department stores, or in boutiques? Please explain why.

I shop in boutiques in NY most of the time because I know I will most likely be the only person wearing that piece/outfit when I go back home to MD. Boutiques can be expensive but the pieces you find are unique and can be worn with anything you already own. Also in NY you can talk the seller down to make things cheaper, so before I go to chain stores or shop online, I look to small designer stores.

If you had to wear one outfit for a week. What would it be?

All Black EVERYTHING But it would be my black pumps, black leggings, and black tunic with lots of necklaces.

What impresses you about a person?

Their kindness. You can be the hottest thing, but if you are rude, conceited, or thoughtless I am turned off.

If you had to pick between being wealthy or having good looks. Which one would you pick?

Wealthy lol… good looks can be bought. You see celebs that first come out and look a mess, then a year later they look gooooood!!

What is your definition of Swagger?

Turning heads! When you walk past, you have men, women, and even children looking your way. That is swag on 1 thousand!! It doesn’t matter what you look like, if you have swag, you gain respect.

Check out these sick! vector illustrations by Genaro De Sia Coppola. He is an artist based in Barcelona, Venezuela. They have a futuristic psychedelic feel to them.

I have to say all of these illustrations are hot. I love to see great art. This will inspire me to make new music.

Mercedes-Benz GL 63 by Brabus

Visual Swagger — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 12:05:43 +0000

German car tuners Brabus have released information on their latest project, an upgraded version of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class and they are calling it the Brabus GL 63 Biturbo.
Brabus have replaced the standard GL-Class engine with a more powerful Mercedes ML 63 AMG motor. They have also added a more responsive twin turbo system, large water-to-air intercooler and other upgrades to the exhaust. All these modifications have whacked the horsepower up to an impressive 650 hp.
The GL 63 has a top speed of 186mph (300 km/h), and hits 60mph (100 km/h) in 4.7 seconds. Controlling all this power is a modified version of the Speedshift 7G-Tronic automatic transmission and permanent four-wheel drive.
This custom car gets an upgraded suspension system and a choice of 21, 22 or 23 inch wheels to ride on. The Brabus wide body kit includes fender flares, rocker panels, a new front apron, larger air inlets, LED daytime running lights, underfloor lighting, four extra headlamps, roof spoiler, rear apron and a rear diffuser.
Interior upgrades include Mastik leather, Alcantara, and a choice of wood or carbon-fiber trim. A full pallette of color options is offered for each. LCD screens are integrated into the seats for the rear passengers, who have access to a DVD player.
The super-truck will be unveiled in a couple of months at the Geneva Motor Show, but is available for order now from €368,000 ($518k).

When I first set eyes on a few pieces from Crooks & Castles women line, I instantly knew these guys are off to something far more great than what we anticipated. It’s so refreshing to see a solid mens line with a consistent following, contribute to women’s street wear nowadays. Spring 2010 offers the ladies a wide range of graphic tees that serves as reflection of the brands signature look, a few cardigans, well fitted button-up tops, super-fly baseball jacket, a slick poncho and even accessories to complete the collection. I must say, I’m impressed but what else would you expect from the Crooks crew? Looking to shop this release? Its now available online at karmaloop.com, selected local retailers and your local Crooks boutique.
