ALL USED UP/marc jacobs button down

So, there are some great neon signs in our neighborhood and I spent one night taking a few pictures of the signs that lined the street from old motels, music venues and car lots ...they are such relics of the past. I mean, everywhere we go now it's all about LED lighting or some kind of outdoor screen allowing businesses to play customized videos to advertise their goods. I'm not one to complain, and I'm one to fantasize of a modern city looking like some kind of dystopian future found in Ridley Scott's Bladerunner with images of attractive women advertising products and the obligatory product placement of Coke...I have to admit I'm more of a Pepsi person if I had to choose.

Every night I stare out of my bedroom window and see this used cars sign. I love the way it looks, there's just something about it. It's amazing...not to mention it happens to be on the old car lot once belonging to Amanda's father!

WARPED SPACE/house of howe

I don't wear this blazer much...I even dusted it off for this post. This House of Howe blazer has this really cool lining made of an old tee, which is really cool! Guess, I should have taken a pic of it.

I received some great news today; 1) my pre-order from Luisaviaroma has shipped today, so by the end of the week I will have some pieces that have been my latest obsession...now, if I could just get a hold of one of the Alexander McQueen visors, I would be set. 2) I read an article that scientists are working on a warp drive engine.  Amanda thinks I'm crazy believing this is true, but she's a person that doesn't even believe in time travel...and she calls me crazy...

PLAGUING THE MASSES/nicholas k elliot pant

I am not one to wear shorts...they are just not for me, as more often than not, some guy is wearing some poorly constructed short that is baggy, ill-fitted, and looks horrible. Plus, I am a former soccer player and I was forced to wear shorts so perhaps in the back of my mind I feel that they serve a purpose; therefore, with me no longer playing soccer there's no need to wear shorts... Enter the Nicholas K Elliot Pant, it's not a short as it is obviously classified as a pant, but how great is it?! Dressed up or down and perfectly fitted these pants are amazing. You want to separate yourself from the epidemic that plagues the masses, these are a necessity!
