Dressing Up Your Spring / Summer Style: Pt.1: SUITSUPPLY.

Dressing Up Your Spring / Summer Style: Pt.1: SUITSUPPLY.

Hello everyone out there , as always it’s good to see you , I’m back with another one. It’s about that time of year again , what time is that you may ask? Well it’s that time when seasons change and so does your style , or at least it should. However if you are not too sure of how to change your style with the season , that’s what you have me for , so let’s get to it. To kick off my annual SP/SU Style series , lets talk dressing up your style , and what better place to go to in order to demonstrate this other than one of my personal favorite retail establishments , SUITSUPPLY. The reason why I think it’s important to start here is because as I often like to say , at this point and time DRESSING UP IS A LOST ART , or at least it seems to be. So for todays vlog/blog Im going to show you three different suits that SUITSUPPLY is offering for the SP/SU season and give you two to three ways that those suits can be worn. Why you may ask ? Good question and the answer is that it’s important to know for one how to wear a suit but even more important , it’s good to understand from a style point of view how to wear a suit in more than one way. Those ways being dressy , dressy casual , and casual. So now lets take a look at how it is that you can make these various looks happen.

All looks have been styled and arranged by JMADDD STYLES.

So what do you think ? Can you pull it off ? Of course you can , and if you don’t know how as I was saying a little earlier that’s what I’m here for. Just to reiterate, three different suits and color ways styled in three different ways. Also just incase you are wondering , in some of the looks I mixed and matched in different dress shirts , ties , and shoes from other brands to show you the versatility of wearing a SUITSUPPLY suit.

50 YRS. of HIP-HOP FASHION & STYLE: Pt. 3: PNB NATION & SOHK.

50 YRS. of HIP-HOP FASHION & STYLE: Pt.3: PNB NATION & SOHK.

Hello everyone out there , as always it’s good to see you , I’m back with another one. Welcome to the third installment of this series , but today I’m not just speaking on one legendary streetwear brand but two. PNB NATION and SCHOOL OF HARD KNOCKS , both of these brands gained major notoriety in the early 90’s and are both in my fashionable opinion the true essence of what a streetwear brand would look like. I personally feel like I saw both of these brands take off thanks to the fact that I was at the MAGIC FASHION CONVENTIONS in Vegas where they would show off their wears to various buyers. both brands were a major inspiration and influence to me because each time I saw them it just caused me to aspire to make my personal streetwear brand at the time better and better to feel like I could some day one day compete with them in the same venue. Both of these brands seemed to progress at a rapid pace each year when they were showing at the fashion convention and I was there to see it happen. As I was saying in the previous installments of this series not only has Hip-Hop reached a major milestone of a 50th anniversary , but all the style and fashion that came along with it. As I was saying before the late 80’s into the 90’s saw an explosion of brands and designers that would make clothing and fashion that seemed like something that was relatable and obtainable. Each time you saw one of these brands explode on the scene it literally made you feel like , it was possible for you to create a brand also and many did just that , not all were successful but those that were left a true impression on the industry and would be remembered for many years to come. Even if they didn’t all survive but at least had a really good successful run. Which is what both PNB NATION & SOHK were both able to accomplish in a sea of streetwear brands on the come up.

All looks in this video have been styled and arranged by JMADDD STYLES.

For the most part both of these brands can now be shopped on sites that specialize in vintage streetwear , because even though both of these brands seem to be no longer being distributed to the masses , there is an old and a new audience that are still in search of owning a piece of these now rarely seen brands. to shop these brands log onto http://www.shoplhp.com , http://www.etsy.com , and http://www.grailed.com .

50 YRS of HIP-HOP FASHION & STYLE: Pt.2: KARL KANI.

50 YRS of HIP-HOP FASHION & STYLE: Pt.:2:KARL KANI.

Hello everyone out there , as always it’s good to see you, I’m back with another one. As I was saying in part one of this series, Hip-Hop has reached a major milestone this year , reaching its 50th anniversary. But it’s not only the art form of Hip-Hop that has reached its 50th anniversary but all the fashion and lifestyle that came along with it. The style and attitude that is Hip-Hop has also reached the same milestone. With that said, at the beginning of what is called the Golden Era of Hip-Hop from the late 80’s going into the early 90’s we saw the emergence of a different kind of designer , a designer that came with the power of relatability that made the brand they were designing relatable as well. In this case I’m talking KARL KANI , From the very moment that you first saw KARL KANI , You instantly thought or at least I know that I thought , that could very well be me or it could very well be you. He made fashion become something that you actually do or be apart of it no longer seemed untouchable or unattainable, in turn breeding a whole new crop of designers that gave you a whole new form of fashion that came to be known as streetwear.

I remember the first time I ever saw this vest that kind of started it all, for the KARL KANI brand in my fashionable opinion being worn on YO’ MTV RAPS , I didn’t know what it was or who made it , but I knew it was something that I wanted to have , not even being sure of what the KANI signature on the side even meant. Or even these adds that ran in magazines like VIBE , RIGHT ON , or THE SOURCE ,

not to tell you my age or anything. But if you fast forward from then up to now , the brand is still here , making it’s mark and maintaining it’s spot in streetwear , keeping its true esthetic only difference it’s graduated to a more high end look with richer looking materials elevating the brand and the look of the brand to a more street luxury look as opposed to being stuck in the look of what would be streetwear.

All looks in this video have been styled and arranged by JMADDD STYLES.

So in a nutshell the KARL KANI brand after all these years is still out there making noise having its presence felt, solidifying its position in fashion and streetwear.

This is the kick off for 2023 , as it is the first vlog/blog of 2023. For today I am taking on another new client for Fashion styling and Image Consulting , my clients name is Taylor and she is now jumping into the business professional space. The goal for Taylor was to pick up on some wardrobe essentials that could easily interchange or mix and match effortlessly. In order to do this we had to get started with the basics and once we got the basics then we could expand from there if we are were to continue to work together in the near future. The list of items that I was in search of were as follows…….

1) Black dress pants.

2) Dark denim jeans.

3) 2 dresses.

4) Leather Jacket or Vegan leather jacket.

5) Classic white button up dress shirt.

6) Cashmere sweater.

7) Essential white T-shirt.

8) Black ankle boots.

All with a budget of $1000.00 , which when you are looking for this many wardrobe essentials, it’s easy to go over that budget. However I am proud to say that we were able to stay in budget and find most of these items to begin putting Taylor’s look together. You want to know how? Well here it is….
