The Revival of Attractive Excuses

its time,its time that I've returned !
Lol.Its good to be back I haven't blogged for about three years now ,I've experienced some interesting things learned some new things and seen some weird stuff,and took on a whole new view of the world,and a new view on us as humans.
Which brings me to the topic of my post.
Women of the impressionist age ,my god we've come far .I recently had the pleasure of accompanying  my mentor to the art institute to take a look at the exhibit of fashion and art in the age of impressionism.
And It struck me that although these were beautiful garments with intricate design and may I say 'built to last ' fabric quality and structure( definitely don't have the same quality made clothing anymore)
Getting to my point these women dressed in very constrictive clothing ; the dresses that would be called summer dresses were thick and heavy when I look at the craft of the dresses I couldn't even begin to understand how a dress as such could be well equipped for the weather that the summer brought ,and the corsets .Here in lies my major concern to what women feed into as the ideal way a women's body should look (developed from the males view).The idealization at some point in early time lead to the invention of the corset ,a very bad invention that many women wore that does damage to the organs ,the way these corsets were made ,well regularly these corset are made with metal boning,the corset is designed the curves of and hour glass and as we all know once it was put on the body it was pulled in very tightly constructing this figure of what the eye would catch as "ideal" hour glass waist ,another way these corsets had been made were with whale bones just as bad as the metal bones (worst actually) these specific invention im sure was common cause of bad health in many women ,in the age because these corsets were responsible for crushing organs,and frequent fainting due to the lack of air they were able to let into their lungs.
I looked around and thought to myself why do we do these things to ourselves!  Why do we continuously do things to change our bodies and etc. That aren't quite healthy for us in the end. My fashionable advice ,ladies ,stilettos do ugly things to our feet ,find a better alternative Dresses that you  squeeze that ass into knowing its two sizes too small don't wear it
My point in this article today is very simple our bodies should be comfortable in what we wear and should have no ending result in the disfigurement of our feet or anything else,wear what fits you.
thank God for Coco Chanel if it weren't for her I don't know if anyone else would've been able to do what she did for fashion .

 
 

This is the definition of" hustle hard"

Have any of you ever sporadically logged into facebook ,twitter ,or read anywhere,where some artist is prematurely gloating about "how this my year " and "I'm out here grinding",you ever hear that?When it all comes down to it,no one knows the guy,or he just sucks,and if he was really grinding we would see it without anything being said.But,not these guys, every now and then you'll hear them say "its Cracking'" but it'll be true!they go no farther then saying that though.This year the Odd Couple has definitely took no time letting months or days go by, being wasted ....Hear by I bless you with my words on WHY the ODD Couple Is the definition of HUSTLE HARD By the the end of the year(or less) a whole new MEAN ass project will be out here.Just out here waiting for you alls asses. From their new awaiting project, recently Odd Couple decided they were gonna give you a taste of what they have going on now ,a new song "Beamer,Benz or Bentley"- http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0HSULMTR
But to top it allllll off their touring with the DunkXchange AGAIN this time there performance is in New york ,which is actually April 25, 2010
HUSTLING REAL HARD lol
If your not out here trying to either prefect your craft or while practicing your craft not half-ass it and do it right,you can do yourself the honor of killing yourself(not literally lol)
As Calvin Coolidge says-"Nothing in this world can take the place of peseverance.Talent will not;Nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.Genius will not;unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."

What's your Excuse?

Black Market Caviar

SOooooo how do you give this an intro?I'll just explain,The Name Black Market Caviar is ,Yes,BAD ASS .I mean already ,to me to bring together the idea of such; caviar which(we all know what that is)and the business term "Black Market ",which means:Illegal free market which flourishes in economies where consumer goods are scarce or are heavily taxed. In the first kind, black market prices are higher than the 'official' or controlled prices. In the second kind, prices are lower than the 'legitimate' or taxed prices, due to tax evasion. Black market and black money go hand in hand.Together these meanings come to mind:Grimey,Dope,bad-ass,high standard,high quality,rebellious? possibly,I say this because the approach that the creators/founders took with Black Market Caviar ,is not all the same,in attempt to fit in with the other boutiques in Chicago that are notorious,streetwear boutiques, that is.Its almost like some of the owners that decided they wanted to open a boutique in Chicago or up north felt they have to appeal to the same crowd,the to make money;the "skateboarder"&"hipster" crowd after the notorious first&second Chicago streetwear boutique emerged(Leaders &Phli).Although the hipster,and skateborder are a way of life and not a trend many people treat it that way,so Some markets appeal naturally to what will make them money,selling premium brands is only what some want to do,but since some of these streetwear boutiques are newcomers they have to go for that crowd of people(Im not gonna say but you know who I'm talking about).Black Market Caviar is a screen printing/clothing boutique,on Chicago Ave. upnorth,when you go to http://blackmarketcaviar.com/Black_Market_Caviar.html

you're able to get a grasp what black Market Caviar explains"Our Name denotes a particular attitude towards today's economic and social trends.In these days of cultural and economic turmoil we will stay fresh.We will remain wealthy and have great lives no matter the cost.This is a dangerous Ideal we strive to remain and will not excuses ourselves for.It is not about monetary wealth,but a wealth of the spirit,mind and body.Black Market Caviar is about choosing to live rich."
-Black Market Caviar {trademarked}

This,Exactly is a state of mind all individuals should grasp(Can't speak for the sheep,the followers that is)
