While leopard print is undoubtedly a timeless part of fashion, it sees it's peeks and valleys every few years through more mainstream outlets. And while some of the early adapters had their fun with all sorts of leopard prints last year, there are still some quality pieces trickling through the cracks, like this amazing stadium jacket by Givenchy...
Black denim, black shades, black on the feet, and this jacket would KILL. So if you have a couple grand to blow this season, check for this jacket at Givenchy or one of their accounts worldwide.
It's kind of crazy how such a standard print like leopard can be done so poorly by so many brands, but just by fine tuning the fabric, color selection, and small details (like the ill double sleeve detail!) you can have something so strikingly awesome like this. Well played.

Adventures in The City: Views n Shoes
Honestly I'm still struggling with the name for this segment, but for now it shall remain to be called "Adventures" and will basically be the photographic documenting of my day to day with a D90 strapped to my shoulder. I'll try to keep it interesting and fresh and thus will probably keep it weekly or bi-weekly. This post is all from yesterday...
The view from my bus stop in NJ ain't bad when the weather ain't bad
Epi
Hit up Barney's to check out all the amazing things I can't yet comfortably afford.. and saw that charming sign by the escalator
The detail on these Bottega sneakers was pretty ill
Had to hit up my old stomping grounds to see all my favorite people over at Niketown
Then it was out to conveyor belt sushi with my homie Jane at Sushi East (go there for salmon Tuesdays!)
Jane put me on to this awesomely detailed speakeasy called The Blind Barber... great ambiance
Then finally back to Jersey were I just can't get enough of this view at night. The low fog and long exposure makes it look a little extra epic too.
If you have any ideas for the title of these Adventures posts, please leave it in the comments section... and also if you have any feelings about me posting personal pics rather than just straight fashion and news all the time. I'd love the feedback, good or bad.
