He was a skater boi


The Man Who Souled The World 'is a documentary about Steve Rocco, co-founder of World Industries. In the 1990s he (along with Rodney Mullen and Mark Gonzales) changed skateboarding into what it is today. Behind it all is a really interesting story about how to run a business and have fun doing it.' Sounds great.






I have always thought that skater's are pretty cool but the fact that the boyf is one of those mid 20 some thing's that still enjoys riding the park with his pal's used to worry me. Yes they are too old for throwing themselves down concrete ramps, but something good has come from this.
Ever since we have been together I have always admired his vast range of music interest and knowledge, and it all comes down to the days that he would stay in with his mate's and watch skate videos. I can't remember how many times he has said..'oh that tune is from a skate video I watched when I was 12' and he is still discovering more and more great tracks.
The skateboard subculture has produced some pretty cool stuff. The graphics from back in the day are amazing. I don't know much about it but whatever I see looks great. The above Alva ads just go to show.

Gil Scott Heron



Last night I was lucky enough to have seen Gil Scott Heron at the Royal Festival Hall. It was so nice to see such an inspiring man performing amazing music an sing about life and it's truths. He cracked jokes and talked about the many thing's he had experienced. If you ever get a chance go and see him you must. Check a much younger Gil Scott Heron out from 1990.

Girlfriend Is Better



but not better than David Byrne's suit. What a tune.

dreamy...







How gorgeous are these? The NY based 'refined' shop Land Rich change their raw and natural based products each quater until their next edition comes out and the current collection becomes part of their timeless collection. The dream catcher's are either 7'' or 14'' and made from African and vintage fabrics, shells and beads. I reallly want one of these. Which colour though? Hhhmmm?

The Top Of Her Game







Naomi Campbell is one of the best British models that ever walked the earth. She is bad tempered, has been in court more times than I can remember and has been ridiculed by the press but she still owns it like no other. Russian Vogue has done a feature on her and it just goes to show how great she is. Big up the Campbell!

www.lookbook.nu




Just found out about the online look book http://www.lookbook.nu/. San Francisco founded and member's invited only, it is made up of the user's uploading inspiring images of their self-styled outfits. American Apparel noticed that many of the outfits featured their products and launch a contest for user's to submit looks made up of AA product. The lucky featured winner's got flown out to Los Angeles to style and model in their own campaign shoot. What fun! The best of the 7000 entries make up a 64 page book which will be for sale in AA stores soon.
The site is well worth a peek. It's got some great images.

RIP Malcolm Mclaren


A sad day to loose such an inspiration. He made Britain cool in the 70s along with his then girlfriend Vivienna Westwood. What a guy.

The 'Alexa'

So 'IT' bag's are back and nothing says that better then the Mulberry 'Alexa.' Perfect tan loveliness for the summer, I am totally smitten with this bag. I know it's old news now but I keep finding myself trapped in a stare at it and it's array of colours on the Mulberry site.
That truely is stuff that dreams are made of.....
