SOUNDTRACK: LANA DEL RAY ‘BORN TO DIE’

Like… one of the best albums I’ve ever heard. I’m not kidding. ‘Born to Die’ is such the perfect soundtrack for a trip to Italy. It’s a bit of well versed mysterious sunshine for your ears and I want more more more.

I’m totally not here for stealing music BUT… there are exceptions to every rule and if you already pre-order something on iTunes and it HAPPENS TO LEAK, that’s not your fault. You’re allowed to listen to it so long as you promise to still buy it. That is the case with the queen, Lana Del Rey. Her album deserves a spot in the top ten and I plan on doing my part to make that happen.

A$AP ROCKY & JEREMY SCOTT KNOCK ‘EM OUT THE BOX ON THE COVER OF THIS MONTH’S COMPLEX MAGAZINE.

$TEEZ when you look at this spread. A$AP Rocky & Jeremy Scott grace the cover of this month’s Complex magazine. Rocky is sporting some looks from the SS 2012 adidas Originals by Jeremy Scott collection, including the music note track suit, the graphic print oversized retrospective sneaker t, and the all white oversized logo shoe while Jeremy rocks the American Flag Wings 2.0′s and the American Flag bondage jacket (favs). Check the rest of the images and full cover story here.

Kind of major to have your first magazine cover be Complex let alone to share it with the incomparable Jeremy Scott. Props to both these dudes.

ALSO- Peep Rocky’s new video for “Wassup” that just dropped today. And not that I’m bragging or anything but that BLVCK SCVLE pyramid ring that he’s rocking in the opening shots… he gave that to me and I wear it with pride.

Issue hits newsstands February 7th. Shoutout to SeanBot @ Complex for the heads up.

CUSTOM AMERICAN FLAG JEAN JACKETS FROM D.FAME

Ok- so a wise woman once told me that fashion always follows current events and in a time when politics are becoming more prevelant because of the Presidential race it’s no shocker that fashion isn’t too far behind. Recently we’ve seen Americana looks from Jeremy Scott, American Apparel, and Joyrich (just to name my favs a few)… and now we’re seeing this Custom American Flag Jean Jacket from D.Fame. It’s very similar to a Joyrich look from a few seasons before but D.Fame add an ‘ombre-like bleach gradient to the bottom… and I ain’t mad.

Check out the Americana looks along with the rest of his collection, which include a matching shirt, at shopdfame.com.

MY 2012 NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS

1) Save: Every year I try to come up with some kind of comical word play that reminds me to save and it never really ends up working out. “Think before you spend” and “Control your spending” didn’t really do much as I just put more time into thinking about how much shit I wanted and how I’d stop at nothing to get it. This year the goal is to not only spend less but to SAVE MORE – third times a charm.

2) Share: I started this site two years ago as part of a resolution (and a little bit of therapy) and this is the year I’m really going to get into it. I feel very Taylor Armstrong in that I’ve finally found my voice and I’m not afraid to use it.

3) Shine: I meant this in both the literal and figurative sense. Shining in the figurative sense doesn’t come easy – it takes hard work, focus, and determination but the way I see it, there’s no other way. Shining in the literal sense on the other hand… well… sequins just look good on me.

TUNDRA GEAR® TUNDRA HATS FOR ALL!

On my Weezy shit thanks to the homie Aras Baskauskas, Survivor winner and founder of Tundra Gear. He hooked me up with the Tundra Hat in not only red but pink too and I can’t get enough of it – I’ve rotated colors since I got them.

Tundra’s variety of color ways will keep you and your fans on their feet. Check the rest out here. (Each hat also comes with a bottle opener… Hello?! What more could you ask for?!)

Warning: The pink will make you crave cotton candy the entire time it’s on your head.

REALITYTVGIFS SPREAD HOLIDAY CHEER: NEW JERSEY STYLE

My friend at RealityTVGIFs really outdid himself this year with these Real Housewives of New Jersey Christmas ornaments. I can’t even imagine what life would be like with a tree full of these bitches.

I’m also very pleased to see my favorite Housewife of all time, Miss. Dina Manzo made the cut.

BREAKFAST WITH MISS AURETA

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting Aureta for a quick inspirational breakfast at Cafe Angelique in the West Village. I learned a couple things: 1) She’s even more beautiful in person and smells divine – 2) She’s not bougie but likes bougie things. Perfect!!

Check her blog out here. It’s full of amazing photos of places and clothes you can only dream of and of course some Melody Ehsani Swag.

FIELD TRIP!: GAGA’S WORKSHOP AT BARNEY’S NEW YORK

Say what you want about Gaga and her store Workshop… I stopped by over the weekend and it was totally worth it. Sure it’s got over priced gadets and gizmos of plenty, whose it’s and what’s it’s galore… but the environment itself I found to be really inspiring. If you’re in New York, you MUST, MUST, MUST at least poke your head into #gagasworkshop at Barney’s. It’s worth it, I promise.
