Positive People on the Move













So yesterday my mother and I took a trip to the America Mart in downtown, Atlanta. We went because my mother is about to start being a buyer and selling items. Her company is called "Positive People on the Move", I like the name and hopefully me and her can collaborate when I get my fashion line up and started! But my mother also signed me up as a buyer also, so I can get this "Arab Money" lol. Here are a couple of pics I took from my visit, they have some nice high-end items there, although the building if not finished yet! It should be in the middle of March. go check out more info at there website.

Make Love Not War


So Last night was a very fun night! After proceeding from class I met up with a good friend of mine and a new friend from school, and we decide to hit up the "Broke $ Boujee" party which was on Euclid Ave. right by little 5 points. Now this was my first time going to one of these functions, and I must say I will be returning to the next one!!! I had so much fun, although it was a lot of people it was a good atmosphere, music, drinks, and people. I got to see a very special friend who I haven't seen in a long time, I was so excited! There were lots of souvenirs passed out at the party like t-shirts and scarves like the one you see in the picture. I also took a couple of dope picture that should be posted on Broke $ Boujee's website soon. So go check'em out and see what's the fuss about? But you know I'm going to put it on my blog anyway. lol
STAY FLY!!!

I Bet He Wasn't Prom King...



So Have you heard the "Prom Queen" song from Lil Wayne coming from his "Rock and Roll" album called "Rebirth" set to release April 7, 2009. But just like how he taunted us with the "Carter 3" pushing it back so many times and then finally coming out. Hopefully he wont pull our chains this time, but the question I'm wondering is? Will he sell a "Milli" one more time? Only God knows, but as a fan I don't like the fact that Lil Wayne says he doesn't believe in the bible, like I know were entitled to our own opinions! But he should have kept that to himself. Go check out him performing "Prom Queen" live for the first time. although I don't know if he's really playing this guitar.

FLY CUTS




So it was about that time again for me to pay a visit to the barber shop. So I didnt do anything to different but if you seen my previous blogs you can tell the change. But let me know what you think? Send me some comment!!!

FLY FIT: Old School Fly Dude

Today was a great day! I was off from work, I got a hair cut, & I thought I was real fly today! Now as I was cleaning my room this morning I keep thinking to myself what am I going to wear today? Did i wanna look preppy, sophisticated, handsome, street, or what? But I decided lets go "Old School". For all my 1988-1989 baby's, don't you remember in elementary school during recess posted up with a button down shirt & a jacket wrapped around your waist? Man it brought back memories! I got a lot of love today from people at school, I got a lot of comments like "ooh he look cute" lol thanks ladies!! Oh yeah by the way, the jeans I have on? are vintage, so u could never ever find them unless you have a time machine! Sorry Haters!!
But here are the details to this "Fly Fit":
  • Shirt: Yellow Yarmouth Button Down Shirt (Ralph Lauren Polo)
  • Outerwear: Blue Cardigan (Lacoste)
  • Pants: White Vintage Jeans (Exhaust)
  • Shoes: Blue/Yellow SB Zoom Team Edition (Nike)
  • Accessories: Reader Glasses (Junkman's Daughter)

Wake Up To A Better Sunshine


Yesterday I read something that motivated me, and showed my how I should live my life for now on. It was from the words of Bebe Campbell Moore saying, " As I grew older, part of my emotional survival plan must be to actively seek inspiration instead of passively waiting for it to find me."
I felt like this has to be the realest thing someone has ever said. Like she has such a good point! Say if your a journalist, you can just sit here and wait for a story to come? you have to be a go getter and find it yourself. So with me comprehending her words I'm not just going to sit her and wait for a new ideal of how I want to do my fashion? I'm going to continue to look and search for what things I like and I know it will come to me some way some how. So I encourage you to do the same as far as how you live your life, so you can wake up to sun looking like the picture above. And if you want to learn more about Bebe Campbell Moore and her books, just go to her site. Now thats Antique Flyness.....

Dont Be So Paranoid

Valentine's Day is approaching us very soon and it comes to my attention that I don't have a
valentine this year. I thought I did have one a couple of weeks ago when me and a certain someone was together, but were not anymore. So now I'm feeling like Kanye on his "808 Heartbreaks" album, so what is this fly dude to do? Because I thought I was in love, but i guess not? I may have been really infatuated but I realized that real love goes know where.
Wikipedia says that:
  • Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure ("I loved that meal") to intense interpersonal attraction ("I love my wife"). This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.As an abstract concept, love usually refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of tenderly caring for another person. Even this limited conception of love, however, encompasses a wealth of different feelings, from the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love to the nonsexual emotional closeness of familial and platonic love to the profound oneness or devotion of religious love.

So after reading this, I felt like the only person I should be saying "I love you" to is God and my family. Because no matter what? The love you family and God has for you never leaves. And it's so true, I am so thankful for what God done for me in my life. He has blessed me with so many things, people, knowledge, money, and faith. That I am so grateful for what he has done for me, I thank him everyday and will be sure to do that tomorrow morning while I'm sitting in church. My faith, in the words of Kanye " is on a hundred, thousand, trillion" that I know he will bring me that special someone I can share the same love that I have with him. Because what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! So with my previous losses, comes upcoming winnings. In conclusion February 14, 2009 I'm not going to worry about if I have a valentine or not, because as long as someone loves me I have everlasting valentines.

Trust in God, He always has your back!

All Aboard!!!!

Hey my all my sneakerheads!!! Check out these joints! Are they fly or what? The Vans Chukka shoes are one of my favorite models from vans. The Vans Chukka - Shaffers Crossing shoe comes from the soon to be released "Shaffers Crossing Pack". The inspiration behind this shoe is Shaffer’s Crossing, Colorado, a small southwest of Denver known for it’s extensive history as part of the railroad industry. The shoe sports wool uppers which evoke essences of railroad workers uniforms. The colorway is somewhat smoggy, making use of black, grey and white and the inner lining is dressed in red and black flannel. This would go great with a sum acid washed jeans, & a red/black lumber jack flannel shirt. So be on the look out for these "Fly Kicks"!!! I'll be sure to have them in my closet!

We Are Not The Same, I Am A Martian!

Pharrell Williams, owner and designer of the high end clothing line " Billionaire Boys Club" and "Ice Cream". Coming out with some real "Futuristic" items in his Spring/Summer 2009.

Although most of the Fly clothes on bbcicecream.com are mostly sold out! But there are a couple of cool tees, sweatshirts, and some really fly sneakers featured on the website. There a little bit prices for some folks, but in the words of T.I.P "it ain't tricking if ya got it". So if you got the money I would be sure to get a couple of "Fly Fits" from the store and send me a pic of how you rocked it. Ill be sure to post it as a "Fly Fit". Later Dudes!!!!

Bush Kick Rocks! My President Is Black!!!

Jay Z, one of the best rappers alive right now, has once done it again. Coming out with another set of controversial lyrics on Young Jeezy's song "My President is Black" off "The Recession" album which is one of my favorite albums of 2008. Now I'm not a HUGE fan of Jay Z, but I do find myself bobbing my head to his tunes. And this remix I could not stop rocking my head to, click here to see the live performance of "My President is Black Remix" with Young Jeezy & Jay Z doing what they do best. "I'm loving it" in the words of MC Donald's, of how the rap game is showing so much love to my big home Barack Obama. I believe this country is going to change for the better. But Let me know what you think of the fly verse?

They Usually Wanna Baller,& The Young Dude Ballin!!!


From ESPN to GQ, Lebron James is a great "show"and I say show because when you see him live in action your eyes are glued to the tube. He's one of the most highlighted basketball players in the NBA since Jordan. I know that's a big throne to sit on, but at 21, he's on his way to that royalty. GQ magazine featured this all star in the Feb. 2009 cover. Reading his article you will hear about when, The greatest basketball player on earth schools a team of GQ staffers. What started to be a 5 on 1 game(Lebron vs. 5 players), ended up being a 3 on 2 game where Lebron, to me show these guys they should leave basketball to him. To see this sad, but hilarious video of the game click here.
Lebron James is another contribution to the fashion world, with his latest shoe the "Zoom Lebron 6" running at $114.99(retail $140.00) at pickyourshoes.com.These Joints are Fly!! I have to cop! By coming out with his sneakers numbering each shoe. He is like I said previously on his way to becoming the next Michael Jordan. He also has taste, the picture you see above in his attire is a Made-to-measure suit, $2,795, shirt, $325, and tie, $135, by Ralph Lauren Black Label. Pocket square, $55, by Ralph Lauren Black Label. Tie bar, $75, by Tiffany & Co.
So as you can see Lebron James is a Fly Dude!

You Can Stop Complaining, Because Im Finally Here!!!

Hey Friends,
I know I told you I would show you outfits that I wear so you could get ideals! So sorry I'm off one day! But here is what I call my infamous "Fly Fits". Now this particully outfit I decided to start off by picking my:
  1. Denim: I chose my odd looking jeans, which I made myself. And you also can do it too! They where a basic pair of light wash blue jeans, which I thought was too boring for me, and bought a fabric dye called RIT dye. You can get it from your neighborhood grocery store or wal-mart or just click the link, and they have all kind of colors. These pair of jeans I chose golden yellow & tangerine orange, its real simple jus read the instructions all you need is a stove-top and washing machine.
  2. Shoes: I decided to go with one of favorite number Air Jordan's, 12's where you can never go wrong , because there so beautiful! lol I love them! And yeah if you dont have these? "THE AUTHENTIC ONES" atleast. I see someone didnt have a good christmas 2008! These were a MUST HAVE!
  3. Shirt: Now I went with a graphic tee which I also designed myself. I design tees for a side hustle so if you want one? holla at me! and this particular shirt has "perposely" bleach spots on them with the Kanye Bear from the "Graduation" album. Real Fly!!!
  4. Outerwear: I just went real basic, a black cardigan with white lines to offset the Air Jordans. Some people call it "Offset Swag".
  5. Accessories: Once again basic, a nice Jesus piece and a Michael Kors time piece. You dont need to much with this outfit, Oops!! I mean "Fly Fit".

So this is one recipe to have a "Fly Fit", so I hope you wrote it down! more to come!
Love Always, God Bless......

FLY CUTS

I'm pretty sure your like me, and wondering exactly where is Kanye going with his hair cut? I'm thinking he's going for the Stevie B 1990, album "Love and Emotion" look. I know your probably hoping he doesn't grow the back to be this long. But I can't hate, because unlike others I actually like the cut! It's retro, new, different, and has "Stupid Swag" lol. So hands down to you Kanye! Keep doing your thing & continue to make great music.
So today I had to go to the barbershop myself, because it was about that time! Now I don't know about you? but I make my way to visit the barbershop every week. That's just one of the steps of being fly my friends. Now I go to a local barbershop in the area of Jonesboro, Georgia on Tara Blvd called Dee Jay's Barbershop. I have my own barber Rico, who knows me & my head very good, because I come out looking clean! He has skills, so go check him out if you need a cut. But just take a second & check out my video of my cut & tell me what you think? Now I'm kind of like Kanye with my hair cut, because its different. I have a 80's box style haircut with a Mohawk in the back in a "V" shape. Its looks good to me & wouldn't be mad if you wanted it to? That's what I'm here for, I'm a trendsetter. So if you want the number to my barber shop here it is. (678) 610 7669. Ask for RICO!

Send me some fly comments! God Bless!

FLYNESS REPORT: Being Fly 101

I'm Baaaaack! Here to bring you another Flyness Report hot off the presses, so hear all about it!

Today was a good day to start showing you bloggers some video's on how to's of being fly. So I got a good friend of mine from Bauder College who is a fashion design student just like me. To show you what is means to be fly? Now you may have your answer & I may have mine. But just take a minute & see what he has to say. Jamal Ognelodh, 24 had a great outfit (a.k.a. "Fly Fit") today, he followed with the "Monochrome" look (meaning "one color" for you slow folks) with a dash of street style. So ladies here's another fly dude to look at, from walking down the halls of Bauder, he alway's has been fashion fowarded. So I was glad to have inteviewed him for my blog.

But I want to know what you think? SO TELL ME!

KING Flyness

You know lately I haven't been up to my 200% swag status. I actually have been down a little bit. But a great friend of mine sent me something today that made me forget all my trouble & tilt my crown again (a.k.a. Bankhead Fitted Hat). So read this & I hope you put yours back on too!



Don't Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and its turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When they might have won, had they stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit!

We Came Along Way From Bankhead!!!!

In this year's GQ: Best New Designers in America 2009 I came across someone who has came along way! From music now to a fashion icon, André Benjamin (a.k.a. André 3000), 33 creator of the Benjamin Bixby line, Founded: 2008, New York & Atlanta. We all know Andre has always been fly when it comes to fashion, so I expect nothing but the best from him.
"3 Stacks"(a.k.a. Andre 3000) shows us what his line is about & where it came from.
  • The philosophy: “During OutKast’s Stankonia period, I looked like I was from Mars. The music was otherworldly, and my character reflected that. I wanted to put that spirit into classic clothes, but ones that people could actually wear.”
  • The look: “I think the cut of Benjamin Bixby comes from comic-book characters, which I’ve been drawing since I was a kid. In comic books, the waist is always pinched, but the legs are full-cut, kind of like the Cracker Jack man.”
  • The influence: “In high school, in Atlanta, when Grand Puba told us to wear Girbaud jeans, I wore Girbaud jeans. Then you had this prep movement happening: Ralph Lauren, Eddie Bauer, Bass, Sebago, and Timberland. So imagine me walking through [local housing project] Bowen Homes in the morning to catch the bus, but I’m dressed like a prep. As you get older, you go back to those things.”

Although Benjamin Bixby wasn't the only line featured in this years GQ: Best New Designers in America 2009. Other lines such as Save Khaki, Robert Geller, Yigal Azrouël, Shipley & Halmos, and Rogues Gallery were also there to give you a look at what's next in menswear. To see more about GQ Designers click here.

On Top Of The World Baby!!!


We'll its official now! Barack Obama is that "Dude". We finally made it ya'll! I'm so glad I'm here to see the day & live the day after seeing our 44th president a African American like me. MTV made a big impact on young America by broadcasting The Youth Inaugural Ball live in 162 countries and 33 languages. With headliners such as Kid Rock, Fall Out Boy , & "the talk of the town dude" Kanye West. Barack said Kanye's "Touch the Sky" Song inspired him through this election process. I also agree with him that song has pushed me through some tough times when I wanted to give up. But you got to remember how far you came, to never give up, & to continue grinding until you touch the sky!
So I hope I motivated you today to go out & follow your dreams! Be the best! Don't stop til the clock stops, because everyone was made to be something great & contribute to this world like God did for Barack Obama being our president.

Click Here's Kanye's Performance!
