///constant surprises///

green? go to helios house for your gas next time. olympic x robertson. solar panels, green roof, water reclamation, energy-efficient lighting, recycled materials, carbon dioxide-absorbing landscaping.



charitable? work or volunteer for room to read. establishing libraries in schools around the developing world.




















woman in the city? look around. four of the decade's prominent female artists transform the city's billboards, marquees, loudspeakers, video screens into aesthetic forms of social commentary.




walker? join 24hrs and walk around a city for an entire day. an event devoted to critical, spontaneous, performative exploration of urban space.













graffiti? look at the writing on the wall. anonymous poets make city walls into post-it notes of sorts with their "message graffiti."




lvhrd? an organization where people actually meet up through creative competitions. the belief that online social networks are just glorified address books.

ok. so i think it's about time i stop obsessing over men's fashion for a while and concentrate on stuff that actually fits me [ie: women's stuff].

i need this 3.1 phillip lim in black for a new everydayer:

















dior makes strong violet pieces that i actually appreciate [ingenious structure and fade] - i can imagine lucy liu's character in cashmere mafia wearing this:




















christian lacroix's beautiful dresses + chunky jewelry + hardcore make-up:





















armani styles a dyke i might actually hit on [nice fucking hairrr], androgynous dressing + dresses:






















marc jacobs does plaid in the damn hottest way. fresher than any hipster's or streetwear's:




















i think i'll start curling my hair and cleaning my room. but i'm still not down with foundation.

busta with dreads, left eye raps, and the jacksons.. chrome and dark lipstick.. that's what i miss.

this post is dedicated to one of my most favorite sounds. ever. the sound of skateboarding.

this is the tketht! vol. 1 video made with love by a bunch of people i really miss: aki turner, ricky webb, rashad turner, derrick barney, chris perkins.. + more. i miss LAxLB adventures.. driving, skating, eating, shopping, partying, dancing, drinking, sleeping, then getting up and doing it all over again.

a couple videos..
the first, showed to me by idris:

the second, we all know very well:

i think he subconsciously instilled this secret guys-in-cardigans obsession i have.. o_O

[crappy quality picture of a picture by: me. men's cardigans by: CTRL]

everything was so much funkier back then. television is devoid of groove these days. buuut, i'd rather not dip into that.

///variousversus///

ok. so last night before shine*, i bought this versus album at amoeba along with a bunch of other goodies based purely on its cool album art:

and.. the fact that they remixed a sia track. i listened to little bits of it.. it's.. interesting. very electronic and weird. then jungle and calm. then.. i don't know. i think i have to listen to it in its entirety to appreciate it. maybe later.

various productions came out with an album previous to versus called, the world is gone:

but i don't think it was liked as much as the new one.

spitz is opening down the road from us in little tokyo. can't. fucking. WAIT. !!! kebabs are my loveee. apparently they're planning to make it a restaurant by day, lounge/bar by night. we'll see about that.. if it really pushes through, you know where to find me.

i just watched the first episode of the new 90210 and yes, i am addicted like a fucking high school student would be. due to several reasons:
1. i have a crush on silver [jessica stroup] - her look and her character.




















2. naomi [annalynne mccord] looks like the white version of my manila wifey, val. and i miss val like you wouldn't even know..



3. they used two of my favorite adele songs - 'chasing pavements' and 'daydreamer.' actually, fuck it.. everyone should just listen to her entire album, 19.


the interior album art of the versus album:




















v.. my favorite letter. hopelessly.. always.

p.s. at shine*, madlib killed it. as expected..




















and check out that hardware on his knuckles and wrists!!! i want.
