'I Can't Be There With You But I Can Dream'

Twitter Conversation with Mr Hudson.

@MrHudson welcome to narrwich! damn these exams otherwise i would be there. have a great show mrhudson all the best from lemelpblog @ uea.

MrHudson@lemelpblog can't you take an hour off?!

And then things really sink in. Right now I can't stop listening to There Will Be Tears.... It's always been the way in my life, so far. Education has always got in the way, or shall I saw taken priority over my social life and life in general. 

I'm not angry. 

Just a little upset sometimes that I can't be out enjoying things, seeing Mr Hudson, playing basketball, working for the JumpOff.... But tonight after that things really started to sink in. Education is key, the key to my success and a way to achieve and move forward in my life. 

My Dad always says "party's and friends will always be there, your education won't" He's right. He has always been right in saying that. I only really get one shot at this and with my place at Temple University on the line then right now, my books are my priority! 

So Mr Hudson I guess I will have to come and enjoy you another time. When I can really appreciate you show without a worry and when I'm free. 

"There will be tears of no doubt, there may be smiles but a few
and when the tears have run out, we'll be numb and blue.
I can't be there with you but I can dream. I still dream"

Q: What do you look for inspiration when you do your thing
A: "Ah, man it's all about life. You dress in the way of the life that you live. If your life has a style you exhube that style in everything you that you do [...] Once you like really get into your groove of who you really are, then you start looking like who you really want to look like"

My question: Who inspires you fashion wise and who do you really want to look like?

Words From...


Definitive and thoughtful anologies from Marcus Troy. Really do take the time to read and digest what he has to say. 
I done a post about how felt his words were a while back, 'Big Blogger, Big Icon'
Read the full article here.

Private joke: I'm checking my inbox everyday!

Breathe and Stop....

Flicking through my Google Reader and suddenly my eyes had to focus a little bit more and my heart just skipped.
Shops have them already, they are here.... The LAST colourway of the Air Yeezy!
Someone's trying to tell me something, because I said today I wasn't going to queue again but my inside is screaming YOU HAVE TO!
Sigh...
Let the pictures do the talking.

Just Listen!

I love music like this. 
Even though I have a love for lyrics and word play, I'm still a huge fan of instrumentals!
The MC in me attempts to rhyme over the beat, but for the most part I just lay back, listen and chill.
I imagine this in a movie, you know when the car is just speeding through inner city London or New York, camera close up on the passenger side looking in through the window. 
Stops, starts, blurred lights? I'm going to have to find a clip of what I mean exactly.


Like this a bit.... Mr Hudson Supernova video shoot.
But for now, enjoy!

Internships...

I send out a ton of emails to people, companies, blogs and I hardly get any replies. 
I would love the chance to show my passion and drive and to be considered.

My dream is to be a Footwear Designer, to be involved in creating and designing shoes - the visual aspects. Through my blog I am developing an intrest in Fashion Journalism and would jump at the chance to intern at a blog dedicated to Fashion, Music, Sneakers. 

I am more than happy and willing to send a copy of my CV for consideration. 
But in a nutshell, I'm a dilligent, enthusiastic, hard working and commited person. 

I'm sure everyone started this way, an abounding passion to follow your dreams, to try and show you can, to be given the chance to shine? 
I really want to get my foot in the door without it being slammed in my face. 

NexusVII Messenger Bags

These are SO fly! 

I have a Nike Midnight Madness messenger bag and that is pretty exclusive but I would never wear that ever again if I had one of these. I imagine wearing this to the office. It's just right, sleek and smart with a hint of street swagger.

North Face Purple Label Backpack


I have a thing for backpacks! It's a NEED!
Especially with summer kind of approaching, you need something to stash your swag! Water, Magazine, Digital Camera etc etc.. I would gladly wear either of these by North Face. Sidebar: been telling people for ages that pink and beige go together. 

I NEED THESE!!!!

I have a Presto post in the draft stage but I saw these in Milk Magazine yesterday night and I was like WOW! I'm telling you Presto's are back and they are what you need to be wearing this summer!!!
