Why did science have to go and mess up a good thing fellas...

Why did science have to go and mess up a good thing….There was time when every woman had natural breast. I'm not saying I don't like looking at the fake ones, but it just not the same. It doesn't spark the same cardinal desire as seeing a real breast , small or large. We are creatures driven by sight, but once you get to the actual touch, its like a bit of water was thrown on the flame. It should be exactly the opposite, after being excited by the allure of the breasts, you should feel like gasoline was thrown on the flame, when you get to the touch. I think fake breast should have been reserved for medical procedure only, cancer etc.

The new 2001 Cayenne

I stopped by the Porsche dealer today, to see the all new 2011 Porsche cayenne.  Yes, all new exterior and interior re-design, and let me tell you , not bad. If you ever seen the new Panamera interior , then just place that image inside the new cayenne. The exterior is sleeker, and more rounded in the back, making it look smaller to me, the but design is growing on me.The lion's share of changes goes to the range-topping Cayenne Turbo. Thanks to a significantly more composed suspension and enormous 19-inch carbon-ceramic brakes (which are optional), the vehicle finally drives like a Porsche. Body control is top-notch, and because the Cayenne now uses the same all-wheel-drive system found in the Panamera, the torque-vectoring gizmos onboard do an excellent job of maintaining traction whether you're on the track or off-road. The turbo engine is good for 500 hp at 6000 rpm and 516 ft-lbs of torque at 2250 rpm.

Well, for when you don't want to get wet….

A great umbrella is a must have and this sturdy design from Paul Smith will definitely keep you dry, but if I was with her I might leave ella ella ella at home. Paul Smith delivers with his signature colorful band, and engraved handle. http://www.paulsmith.co.uk/

The Sunday Sneaker

What goes best with those favorite sweatpants, but a crispy new pair of comfortable sneakers. Not the running sneakers you had on early this morning, that were bought for comfort , not for the look. But a pair like this retro jordan III remake, but my favorite is the Adidas rod laver, that are still sold for 60 dollars.. thank you Adidas. One for keeping this classic shoe around and not raising the price. I have owned countless pairs of this shoe, and it still a classic.

It was all so simple then..

My 1st computer wast the apple II C , now my handle held gadgets run circles around such a archaic machine. When I 1st ran out and spent 600 on the iPhone, I thought it was the best thing since champagne in personal cans. Just a side bar , fellas champagne in little cans is the coolest for the ladies , when your out on the yacht, or just sitting poolside. Ok, now back to the iPhone, Ill never do that again. They dropped price like 200% a month later, but sales are soaring. Now they introduced the ipad, and with its larger touch screen, the fun is endless….now I'm just waiting for them to add the 2way video they added to the iPhone 4. For you blackberry users the new Playbook, to rival the IPad. The PlayBook will be capable of 1080p HD video, and comes equipped with an HDMI port as well as a microUSB jack, 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi, and Bluetooh 2.1. The device clocks in at a svelte 5.1- by 7.6-inches, is only 0.4-inches thick, and weighs just 400g (or about 0.9 pounds).

The New Lexus LFA

Lexus introduces the LFA sport scar powered by a 4.8-liter V10 engine, 354 ft-lbs of torque, with 560 PS (552hp) and 354 ft-lbs of torque. But 375,000 to me, well let me test drive it , before I speak on it. I hear the engine roar was tuned by a team from Yamaha, and will shatter a champagne glass. This car is available in matte black. Did i mention the car body is made completely of carbon fiber.

There is nothing like the smell of great leather...

Why not smell great leather , when pulling out your new ipad with this handmade leather case from makr carry goods. The Makr iPad Case/Multi-Use pocket is built on the ideas and patterning of our flap wallet but with a hidden cordovan closure instead of the horizontal keeper. Being that the primary use was an iPad cover we wanted to eliminate any screen cracking pressure points from a button or. Many attempts were made at visible closures but in the end a cordovan tab was all that was added. The rest of the mechanism is under the flap. One large piece of leather is folded, hand sewn and edge painted to create this case. (H) 8 X (W) 9.75 X (D) 1. LInk: http://www.makr.com/

This is no longer a concept….

I gave you a quick look at the new Range Rover Evoque (Starting at $45,000) earlier in the summer and now the company has officially unveiled the production car that we’ll be seeing in showrooms next year. The new Evoque is essentially a Range Rover GT, they’ve packed in a fuel-efficient 2.0 liter turbocharged Si4 engine that delivers 240 horsepower to the asphalt, getting you from point a to point b quickly and with a lot more fuel left in the tank. Gadget-wise you’ll find a whole host of technology from a 825 watt, 17 speaker Meridian sound system to a Surround Camera System that features five digital cameras that give you a 360 degree view around your car from your touchscreen display.

Don't worry be happy ...

Bobby McFerrin must have inspired the creative juices behind "Happy Socks: with his 1988 hit "Don't worry be Happy". I was in San Francisco , visiting my guys from the Brooklyn circus, when there store received a shipment of Happy Socks. To no surprise, would they pick such a brand to compliment their line. Happy socks come in a such a variety of colors , and patterns its so hard to choose just one. They definitely change the dynamic to any outfit, and I'm personally a fan of the attention and conversation they spark. I would also take a minute a checkout the Brooklyn Circus Website , these guys a have great men's clothing line and a impeccable sense of style.

Common Projects cover my feet for Fall/ Winter 2010

Common projects has been a brand I have looked for to get that sophisticated sneaker look, and was nice alternative to my Paul Smith collection. But in 2010 they have branched , and touched a childhood memories of my favorite boots , that I refer to as the lumber jack, some call it the Nordic look. And with these wingtips are no brain er, with a dark jean, blazer and T.shirt and scarf. The styles ques they have added these staples , give it just the right unique touch.

Modern Design or Nouvo Traditional

I have always had friends and associates commisioning me to help them with interior design of there living spaces , and After buying and successfully flipping a few houses i Have decided Modern design is begining has become a little too mainstream , it used to be reserved for the certain type of individual , who expressed themselves thru there home. No we live in the day of Ikea and with more and more hotels , lounges etc going to the point of ultra modern. A few years ago , I went to award winning modern home to LA to interview Sean Combs . At the time I owned very unique modern home in Atlanta , and decided it was time to sell my dream house. This modern home had everything you could ask for in modern, with skylines view's and a elevator, I never thought you could pry my body from this house. Then Usher and Tameka walked thru the door and without a for sale sign in the yard , I said I hate to sell it but…..in life we all grow and taste expand. Now after taking some time to travel , I'm now working on the interior of my new home. The developer built my new property in the spirit of the St. Charles street in New Orleans. Be it that I love the NO and I go every chance I get, with it's french influence its going to be my best interior/exterior design to date. I will being posting design elements that I call Nouvo Traditional.

The new "Four Door Coupe"

Mercedes who invented the four door coupe has done it again, not only with the CLS but all the models have seen a recent makeover . Mercedes to me had lost its design mojo . The models from 2000 to now , dont get me wrong were all well crafted and the interiors are still amongst the best.

But the design lost its luster and the timeless designs of the past , seem to fade. I have to say I always a BMW fan , but I made the change to the G500 which has not changed its design in 25 years. I think more car highline car companies should stick to their roots, how many cars you see today and say " what is that". Years ago when saw a Benz you knew it was benz, same goes for BMW, Jaguar etc.

The Best Fashion Investment You Will Ever Make!

I used to catch alot flack and questions , from my peers about why I spent so much money on watches. Watches are great investment, that don't depreciate. Well let me explain. The right watches will not depreciate. Im not going to name names today, but I have done very well on the value on all my watches. Buying a great watch and adding any diamonds to " bling " it out makes the watch yours and your only: its devalues the watch and voids the authenticty. You will have a hard time selling this watch to another real watch collector. IWC and Watch Time are great publications to start your own research.
