Summer '09 Styles

I know flip flops have been the official summer shoe since forever but, in recent years they've been elevated to unescapable status. I have been pretty unimpressed with 'designer' flip flops from years past and usually opted to just get ones from Old Navy of Target but, this year changes that.

Since I'm a Kid Robot addict I check their site pretty often for new toy or clothes releases but, I Never would have expected these. Glow-in-the-Dark FLip FLops in colab with Havaianas! For $35 they're only slighty more expensive than regular HAvaianas flip flops and worth it because 1) They're probz the cheapest thing on the Kid Robot site & 2) THEY GLOW-IN-THE-DARK!!! That alone is worth the $35! You know that everyone's gonna be jealous when you're walking around & your flip flops are luminenscent.

I also Love these Marc Jacob's flip flops. The ♥ is mad cute and the lil girl on the platform would be adorable to see if walking behind someone. Im also biased because I have the glasses she's rocking but, for $59.95 they ain't cute enough.

OK- i've talked the hell outta flip flops so I'll stop.

Marshall Manners

The new issue, in actual paper is due May 5th- might as well buy it bc that's a rare luxury in this economy. Something ese hard to come by is an Eminem compliment, which is just what He gave Asher Roth, 

"Asher Roth, I haven't had a chance to, like, really get into everything, like, really get into what he's about, because I've only hear a couple songs. There was talk about people saying he sounded like me, and he was doing this and that and, you know, trying to take what I do and do it. You know, shit like that. I've heard things. But the stuff that I've heard from him honestly, which certainly isn't enough for me to make my own opinion and say, 'Yeah, he does sound like me' or 'No, he doesn't.' But the couple of songs I've head, I don't really think he does. You know what I mean? He's doing his own thing. I can respect it, too, because at the end of the day, I think he's dope."

Em Doesn't really appear to be saying much about anything. I dont see this "We arent gonna go into depth while commenting each other" lasting... even though they would have a lot to gain off of  each other. Em keeps coming out w/ OK shit  & Ash is no predecessor who everyone expects him be like since he already sounds like him. Ash rhymes about college times & drinking & fuckin& Weed! Eminem writes about what's going on in His world & We get to Listen in! Em has such an impeccable delivery method thats he's impossible to duplicate. Know anyone else who can rhyme the word Orange 3 Times ( Album: The Eminem Show Song: Business). To compare the two is like comparing Big & Pac- 2 different styles. 

OK im done rambling... Here's a funny Video w/ AsherRoth and RickRoss

Dunny Love

Now i know i'm creative, but this is on some original tip! Blubbel of Berlin makes these custom Dunny's of comic book characters. Personally, I'm loving these Dark Knight Dunny's, esp the Joker one (cliche, but whatevs) but it's because he's the most interesting out of the bunch an looks like it was the hardest character to 'capture'. The Watchmen ones are cool too, but i don't even know who they are, so for now i'll be a sheep. Baaaaa... me one- Please!! For my birthday? You can find these posted on the Kidrobot.com message boards... I don't know which one though.

I ♥ Graffiti. A lot. I think it's such a cool form of artistic freedom, even if i cant personally do it. But, i CAN wear it! You can bet you'll see me rocking at least one piece from SanFran metal artist Derek Mckay Duncan. Check out his Esty page dmdmetal.etsy.com

What Year Is It?

Because when I saw this cover in CVS I thought for sure it was 1991. I can't place my finger on the reason why; maybe it's the hoop earings, or what looks like my dads shirt or the Tiffani Amber Thiessen hair that needs to go back into its banana clip, or the fact that it's on Allure & i thought that magazine died a while ago.

I mean who buys Allure anyway- all they offer are spa's & hairstylists in all the major cities, a 'Save vs. Splurge' with whack products like cerulean blue eyeshadow and that last page where they interview celebs. They ask these asinine questions, like "You look great tonight. What do you do to your hands to get ready for the evening?" and then ask 'stars' like Padma Lakshmi and Tinsley Mortimer who respond with "I scrub them with a vegetable cleaner and then slather them in baby placenta cream" or "Nothing. I only use a little bit of Johnson & Johnson's baby lotion right before bed." God I hate Allure magazine.

Anyfuckerey, Isla Fisher still looks hot on the cover. How the hell did Borat score that? Oh yea, he's got a big dick tall & funny.
