Kicks Kicks Kicks!
So of course, I couldn't go too much longer with posting kicks! Some of you may know that later this year Jordan Brand is releasing the Air Jordan Flint XIII & we can now look forward to another great colorway of the Jordan XIII. The White/Red/Black Air Jordan Retro XIII! From the pictures, the retro seems to be staying pretty identical to the OG with its White leather upper, Red midsole, and Black outsole. There is no release date yet but they are also set to be released by the end of this year!

Select by Creative Recreation 3-in-1 Morentina High Boot
I though these boots were really cool and was also suprised that they were from Creative Reaction. If you're familiar with CR, you know they are know for casual multi-colored shoes. It is a great idea and worth the $450 because you can have an ankle boot, knee high, & thigh high all in one! These boots are available in 2 colors (shown in the picture). They will be available later this month at Endless.com

Apple's Ipod Updates
Since I decided to begin blogging again yesterday, I'm backtracking a bit but the Ipod Shuffle, Nano, & Touch received a complete makeover. You can now Facetime between an Iphone & Touch or Touch & another Touch but you have to be able to access WiFi, the Nano has been cut down in size, features a clip in the liking of the Shuffle and is all multi-touch and the shuffle now has voiceover, in which it speaks to tell you the name of the song, playlist, and even the battery status. For complete details, click here.
I'm thinking about getting the Touch since my BB always seems to die faster because I listen to music so much. Oh, I'll still be #teamblackberry all the way! lol
Real Fly Ish!
I saw these photos on Mechanical Dummy - Chris Brown's blog and thought they were soo cool! Has to be some great photoshopping or they all must have mad hops lol.

Fall//Winter 2010 - MadeMe
MadeMe’s Fall offering is inspired by 80’s and early 90’s music, fashion, art, and nightlife in New York City. Paying homage to the famed “Paradise Garage,” the Paradise Tee recreates the popular club logo with the words “MadeMe Manhattan.” To compliment the tee, this season introduces the low-rise faux black leather pants and also includes MadeMe’s signature leather motorcycle jacket. The leather motorcycle jacket has been a staple in the line since its inception in 2007 and is available in black and a new bold tonal grey leopard pattern. Another addition to the collection, a shoulder tote bag with interior laptop pocket, adorns the same grey tonal leopard pattern and also comes in a black and white cross pattern. A must-have this fall, the military parka comes in two colors, olive green and black.

G.O.O.D Friday - Sept. 3.
Kayne has brought us new music for the past few fridays. This time he gave us "The Devil in a New Dress." Now before you start that Illimunati talk, Listen to the message of the song. It took me back to the 'Ye we ALL loved (well I still love Kanye like the first time I heard him). Ithink more artists should start something like this, give the fans something to look forward to every week and we'll be G.O.O.D. ;)
