DOCKERS SCHOOLS MY COOL

JSM — Thu, 24 May 2012 14:44:07 +0000

Giving a bit more of street cred to your khakis is what you should be aiming for. The whole print on color pants thing works well on ads, and I admit I’ve been rocking them for a couple of years. How ever last week Dockers sent me back to school and got me working on my classics. The navy blue, original cut chinos. Got to admit it, there is something authentic in the way the vans, grey T comes out. The color package is one that has nothing to envy to sartorial color blocks.

I’ll be doing a first pretty soon. Pics of my looks. Stay tuned. Peace

Girls, music, alcohol and hats. Four words that sum up the inspirations of the japanese label WACKO MARIA.

App: Figure for DJ

JSM — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 13:09:25 +0000

Figure is closest I’ll ever get to being a DJ. The app is designed in a way that actualy makes me believe I’ve got some sort of talent for music.Figure for iOS is designed from the ground up for the mobile environments we find ourselves looking to pass time. With major synth power under its hood, Figure sounds amazing too. Probably the best Iphone sound design app out there. Download it and feel creative.

KENZO x VANS ERA

JSM — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 13:51:39 +0000

In some ways, Kenzo Takada helped paved the way for Rei Kawakubo (Comme des Garcon), Yohji Yamamoto, and even Issey Miyake, when he became the first of few Japanese designers to open a Parisian boutique back in the early 70s. Now, Carol Lim and Humberto Leon are reviving theKENZO marquee once again as its new creative directors and with the same pioneering spirit. One avenue of exploration for the two owners of trendsetting boutique Opening Ceremony is the inclusion of design elements not necessarily from the world of high fashion, such as VANS Era sneakers. Seen on the most recent KENZO’s men’s collection for 2012, the sneakers feature a chain-link graphic in colorway that coordinates with the rest of the collection. There is no official word an on actual release date from KENZO at the moment, but stay tuned to Freshness as more information becomes available.

OPENING PARTY – LA VUE

JSM — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 10:20:48 +0000

“A view to kill, a crowd to die for” Thats the opening statement that probably enhances best the exeprience offered on the Opening Party at La Vue. The crowd was on fire, The bar murdered us, and the Music brought us back to life. Probably one of the most epic of my young and fresh new year start. The all was orchestrated by my friends from La Clique, and the coolest social media agency on this side of the pond: Influence Digital

Pictures ? Hell Yeah.

Definately De Fursac

JSM — Sun, 13 Nov 2011 17:23:37 +0000

Suits are a classic no matter what style we choose to rock. You can wear a suit with sneakers, a denim shirt, a colored tie or no tie. Go for a preppy look, or decide to be a dandy. No matter who you are and how you choose to suit up, a clean cut will always prevail on any manly silhouette. How many brands actualy focus (almost) exclusively on such essential pieces ? Too few to my liking. De Fursac started a revolution a couple of years ago and this is what it looks like today. Hit the switch and feel the taste.

To your engines gentlemen, hit the switch.

Chochoii x Sex

JSM — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 14:01:56 +0000

My homies @jipgournay & Bertrand Labardens introduced me the other day to one heck of a game. Cards + Girls. The magic duo. Weshot a video the other day that will give a very clear idea of how it’s going down ! Check out their TUMBLR. Hit the switch and get your morning wood.

There is no restricted number of players for the Chochoii

whether you are 2 or10 players, you can play.The rules of Chochoii are very simple. Shuffle the cards and place them in the middle of the table. Then anticlockwise, each player picks the card at the top of the pack and has to do the dare written on the card. If the player decides not to do the dare, he or she must drink. After three refusals, the player is eliminated from Chochoii.Any existing card games can be adapted to the Chochoii, however the loser must obey the dareon one of his or her cards. For instance, if you are playing blackjack or poker, the loser will have to complete the dare written on the cards left in his or her hands.

Enjoy the game !
