#FreshStyleFits: “Brandon’s Closet” – Yeezy Season – Jan. 27, 2017

Kanye West has had his fair share of ups and downs both personally and professionally over the past 18 months. A definite high point has been the continued success of his adidas Yeezy shoe collection.

The Breakdown

I’ve copped the majority of the Boost 350 releases. I told my homegirl, Kianna Holland, in a conversation this weekend that I was late on the first set of 750’s and have been upset ever since. She immediately went searching and copped authentic versions of the hard to find Turtle Dove and Black 350’s that dropped in the First Version.

Even with the high volume of fake Yeezy’s available in the marketplace, the shoe has held value well since this time last year. In that way, it’s paralleled only by the rare vintage Jordan releases (i.e. Concord 11’s) in recent memory.

Victoria’s Secret’s decision to discontinue their swimwear collection has left many girls at a loss as to wear they should buy their bathing suits for the upcoming summer. I know for myself personally, I was freaking out. I get majority of my bathing suits from Victoria’s Secret. However, this season I will get a lot of my bathing suits from Pacsun and Urban Outfitters. Bathing suits from Pacsun and Urban Outfitters can be a little pricey, but nothing more than anyone would have paid at Victoria’s Secret. I really love the trendy style that Pacsun and Urban Outfitters bathing suits have. They are so cute. Additionally, I will not count Target out. Their bathing suits are not only cute, but also affordable. All in all, just because my favorite place to buy bathing suits is not selling them anymore, I have found some strong alternates to keep my look cute for the Summer.

#iTunesSounds: “Trappy New Years” – Fabolous & Trey Songz – Jan. 18, 2017

Neither Fabolous nor Trey Songz are strangers to the mixtape circuit. Collectively they have over a dozen album length mixtapes in their catalogs and have used those to elevate themselves to the A-List of their respective genres. Their “Trappy New Years” release was still a welcome surprise to kick off 2017.

The Breakdown

Fab and Trey teamed up for a quick 6-song tape covering some of the hottest songs from the fourth quarter in rap. It’s no surprise that Drake, Future and Migos are amongst the artists on here. As always, Fab brought his AGame with the verses. It helped publicity that Odell Beckham Jr. and the New York Giants were seen in Miami with Trey Songz on the same water that Trey and Fab later shot the “Keys To The Streets” Remix on.

Favorite Tracks

2) Bad & Boujee
3) Useta This
6) Keys To The Streets

#iTunesSounds: “Chixtape 4” – Tory Lanez – Jan. 17, 2017

Tory Lanez jumped out to a huge 2015 with the smash “Say It.” Since then, Lanez has been featured on multiple hit singles and dropped both an album as well as multiple mixtapes. This latest output, Chixtape 4, is filled with remixed samples of classic RnB hits. The emerging artist of the “New Toronto” continues to serve his faithful with that hot fire adding to his portfolio of music by the day.

The Breakdown

The assist for this one goes to longtime Tory supporter, Keil Moore. I’m with him on this one. Young Lanez is definitely in his bag. Take a listen below:

This winter, I wanted to add some different types of color into my wardrobe. I started with solids and this frost blue color way was a no brainer for me. The contrast of the varying spots and color patches in the Embellish biker jeans with the solids in the Kith hoodie and Timberland ‘6 classic boots gave it the pop I was looking for.

Here’s Where To Find The Clothing Pieces:

Kith Reverse Williams Hoodie: SOLD OUT
Embellish Moto Biker Denim: EmbellishNYC.com ($140)
Timberland “First Frost” Boot: RUVilla ($150)

All my friends know I’m a huge advocate of the flannel look because of the way I can sport it in various ways. Even when I throw it around my waist while me and @Steffip5 are adventuring around the city. Luckily for me @larrywrhinehart was able to snap some pics!

Hat: Pink “Papi” Dad Hat (Ebay)
TShirt: Nike SB Essential Grey (Nike)
Long sleeve: Jak Buffalo Flannel (Urban Outfitters)
Jeans: Light Wash distressed skinny (Pacsun)
Accessories: Gage Silver-Tone (Michael Kors)

Trespassing for pictures makes us laugh
