Last week we looked at the Warhol/Basquiat-esqe Jeremy Scott/A$AP Rocky cover but THEN… the second cover got released and it’s my wife Lana Del Rockmore Rey. This issue of Complex might send me into a fashion/music induced coma.
Also, peep this video edit/interview from the cover shoot. Kinda makes me love each of them each a little more:
“Everybody could be like – Yo… you look fuckin’ retarded.” – Story of my life.
We woke up this morning to breakfast in bed and a serious view of Bolzano. Kathy told us the name of the mountains but Kelly and I are just going to call it Schlong Mountain. Breakfast was the Pope’s favorite yogurt with granola and sliced banana. So good.

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.
I think my favorite thing about Florence is The Duomo. We climbed 463 steps to the top and after a group asthma attack, I snapped a few photos that almost look fake. The views were amazing and the air was so clean. However, it would have been better if people didn’t ruin it by bringing their loud obnoxious children who can’t climb stairs fast enough. Anywho!
This morning was tough because last night we got a little too festive and everybody knows a wine hangover is a killer. So we’re just taking it slow and wandering around enjoying all the food we can find.
Today we arrived in Venice – it’s BEAUTIFUL and I can’t believe how blue the water is… like it’s not a joke. It’s so turquoise it looks totally fake. We got an amazing view on our way to the hotel of the surrounding islands from our private water taxi from the airport. A boy could get used to this. However, we haven’t slept in well over 24 hours so I’m REALLY looking forward to getting some rest tonight.
The wine’s flowing and dinner is calling!

Last week I showed you the Custom Jean Jacket from D.Fame Store and this week it’s all about the Custom Driver Seat bracelet. If you’re looking for something different other than a chainlink or beaded bracelet, the wait is over.
Darion Famous hooks you up with these one-of-a-kind Driver Seat bracelets and I can guarantee you none of your friends have anything like this. My dude hooked these adjustable leather snap bracelets up with a series of five old school matchbox cars in various colorways to get your engine going and I can’t wait to get my hands on one.
Check the D.Fame store for other colors and styles – I kind of can’t sleep on the hot pink ones either.
$TEEZ when you look at this spread. A$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.
I hadn’t been to Trash & Vaudeville in like… a month which is a sin. So last week I stopped by to see my boy Jimmy and he hooked me up with these sickning’ Tripp NYC half red-leopard half black skin tight jeans from heaven and the rest was his-story.
I paired it with my fav denim jacket from Joyrich, my white Docs, and my QB piece in hopes that she sees it and remembers the days of Hardcore.
I was pumped to be on camera for the first time at the Drag Race Season 4 Launch Event at Patricia Field. I got to interview RuPaul, some of the queens from Season 4, Pat Field herself, and my fav MobWive Renee Graziano. Everyone was super nice and the evening went so well… until the liquor kicked in.
Shoutout to Absolut Vodka for sponsoring the event, Patricia Field and her amazing staff, especially my girl Dai Burger who picked out my outfit, Rootstein Display Mannequins, and everyone at Logo and NewNowNext that made the night possible.

The latest from the adidas Originals x Jeremy Scott collection are the Flower Bear sneakers. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more crazy, my boy Jeremy took the teddy bear shoe to a whole new level of amazing. This time he’s added a 70′s retro flower-power print with a bright lime green base and a signature yellow sole. As with all things Jeremy, these shoes aren’t for the shy. They’ll be releasing children’s sizes as well which means I might be adopting a child this F/W 2012.
Can you dig it, man? I can. Check out detail shots here.
