Anyway I bought some kicks, sneakers were off the hook in Feb. I easily saw 10 pairs I wanted to cop on the spot, luckily I showed some restraint and bought only two pairs. One being the super fly Court Force Lows I got @ Clientele (Prince & Lafayette, sorry no web site)...
The other I could lie about and say I got them at some out of the way boutique but I got them at Journey's on 34th street from this fly latina chick with a lower lip piercing. Anyway these are tight and for some reason Journey's (and every other chain in the world) is always better in NY...
I also had a chance to head down to the L.E.S. to check out Reed Space THE FLYEST store for designers, fuck streetwear, you can find that anywhere. This store is owned and run by someone who has impeccable taste in all things design, it is a must see when heading to NY. Most of my friends in NY don't even know about it. Anyway I copped an issue of Also Known As (12oz Prophet)which is just a cool slick graf mag with some dope pieces in there...
While I was downtown I got to go to ALIFE they had some dope kicks but I didn't want to spend anymore cash, shit so did Reed Space come to think of it. Fashion for men was terrible everywhere, streetwear is just stagnant right now, maybe it's all the blogs I read but either way it was wack.
Women's fashion was amazing in the L.E.S. every boutique I went to had something new and fresh for the ladies. Lots of Vintage fabrics being used in great ways, plus boots galore, but I will let my other correspondent expand on her shopping experience. She "dreams of boots" all day long and that will be the title of her column/blog. Her blog will be kicking off on scatterbrainmag.com very shortly, be on the look out.
