Trends that “Run this Town”?

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

Earlier this week the Jay-Z’s video Run This Town featuring Kanye and Rihanna, was released in anticipation of Jay-Z dropping his next album, Blueprint 3. The secrecy of the shoot got us especially interested to see what each artist would be wearing considering the group of trend setters it features. Of course, Rihanna didn’t disappoint…she was donning some fashion forward sunglasses that completed the apocalyptic, gangster-esque look that we loved!!! And though we immediately wondered who designed the shades, it did cause us to question if these shades, like many trends out there, will remain for celebrities only and miss the mainstream appeal. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see….

Kanye’s (fashionable) “Good Life”

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Kanye has been everywhere in the hip-hop world and now he is making a name for himself in the fashion world as well. He has already designed a lux line of sneakers for Louis Vutton and his Air Yeezy sneakers for Nike have already been a huge success. Most recently the rumors that he would be designing for Air Jordan (which Kanye has cleared up on his blog stating that he is not in talks with the Jordan brand) have shown the fashion community Mr. West’s value. His current internship at the Gap also has us excited to see what else he is capable of coming up with. Clearly his unique style has transferred to a successful design career and his fans can see that he is not only passionate about his music but addicted to fashion as well!
