It’s citadium, not the huge one off the Grand bvd in Paris but a smaller one in the center of Chatelet. You’ll find a couple of pics i took last night thanks to EnmodeFashion. Im really hyped about seeing Supra in that store….thats really cool.

Supreme Nike SB 94

first look at the upcoming collaboration between Nike SB and Supreme. Entitled Supreme Nike SB 94, the sneaker is named after the brands’ founding year and will release in November in overall 4 colorways.

More pics will be released later.

Reebok x Hello Kitty

Hello Kitty has yet to suprise us with a trully original collabo.  After half a century, Sanrio is still finding ways to promote the cat. The Reebok Freestyle is to women what the Jordan was to men, a myth. Red on Red tone makes the whole sneaker look more suttle. I’m not a fan what do you thing ?

SUPREME Lookbook

If I’d had to wear only one brand it would be SUPREME. Clean cuts, suttle details and very very very hot materials. Supreme and popular skater Jason Dill align for a much aticipated 2010 Fall/Winter collection lookbook. The various looks represent some trademark Supreme with themes ranging from traditional workwear aesthetics to some more refined outfits. As always, a good understanding of Supreme’s intended styling also gives us a good idea of the direction set forth for this season. The collection has released Saturday, September 4th in Japan and the US online sells will begin September 9th.  As usual I’ll have to go to london in order to get some of the coolness. Sophia should i put that on the list ?
