September I Want That LIST
Here is a new kind of post for the blog where I reveal the list of things I have my eye on for the upcoming month. I believe that if you want something you should speak it into existence and this correlates to all aspects of life from love to career and in this particular post RETAIL :). I have decided to keep the list at 10 things that I have my eye on.
1. Clinique Face Soap
Lets start of modest, the Clinique face soap for Men is something I've been eyeing for a few months now the problem is that I have so many full bottles of face wash from The Body Shop, Jack Black, and Benta Berry that I would feel super guilty if I purchased more face soap. I do want to try a bar soap for the face to see if there is any difference, I might just have to add it to the cart if I order anything from Sephora. Plus why is this soap $13.50?
2. New Era Yankees Fitted
This one is a necessity, but I have a difficult time spending $32 dollars on a hat that I already have. I just want a fresh one. My Yankees fitted is still good even though its been sat on, bent up, soaked from the rain, and so many other things its still holding up well its just not fresh and for a fitted that I wear so often I think I should get a new one.
3. New Era 59Fifty Snake Eyes Fitted
Unlike the previous post I don't have this fitted and I need it in my life desperately. You know these limited edition hats are $50 and for that reason I haven't pulled the plug and just bought it. I have so many Fitteds (Fitteds only Snapbacks are the Devil) that I question if I need this one. I wasn't the biggest fan I G.I. Joe as a child but I did like the Snake Eyes character the most. Plus the hat is just dope. Maybe I'll commit if there is a coupon 30% coupon code in the near future.
4. Bond no. 9 New York Wallstreet
Anyone who knows me knows I love Cologne and I have a massive collection. I haven't yet purchases any of the bond fragrances because they are a little pricey as in $230 for the 3.3oz. Even the large bottles of Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, & Versace Colognes are under $100. I really want one though and Wallstreet probably smells like money. I WANT TO SMELL LIKE MONEY!
5. Bond no. 9 New York Brooklyn
I am from Brooklyn so It would only be fitting that I get a cologne that captures the essence of the borough I love, right? There are a few others Bond no. 9 New York Colognes I want but most of those are Summer scents and this season is coming to a close. It costs just as much as Wallstreet which is why I haven't purchases yet, but if I do get one soon I might have to cop Brooklyn First.
6. Nike Fuel Band
I want this for the sheer cool factor, because everyone knows I'm not doing on one's workouts. This wristband allows the user to track their workout progress and calories burned through a corresponding app for their iPhone. This is just an expensive rubber bracelet for me at $149, but maybe with it I'll get the motivation to actually workout. Stranger things have happened.
7. Nixon Emerald Acetate & Gunmental Watch
Isn't she a beauty? If I get her I'm naming her Kelly because she is green and boss. Like I need another watch in my life. Nixon has a stunner right here though and she costs $500. Who wants to buy Kelly for me?
8. Nixon Chrono Acetate & Rose Gold Watch
Like with most things I love I want them in multiple colors. I have wanted a rose gold watch for some time and I never found a style that I truly loved until this one. This watch is different because everyone and their mom has the Michael Kors one and I have to many Michael Kors watches to buy another. There is something about the combo of the white acetate that looks expensive like marble and the rose gold that makes this watch very attractive. Just like "Kelly" this one costs $500 and I might love this one a little more. I'd probably name him "Steve" because he looks rich like Steve Jobs.
9. Glo Brilliant Personal Teeth Whitening Device
I have already sparkling teeth but I am always looking for something that allows me to keep my grill white longer. I use the strips and the whitening toothpaste ever so often and that does the trick, but the reviews on this Glo teeth whitening system are great and I want to try it. Retailing at $275 this system does cost a pretty penny but if the results are as good as the reviews its probably worth the price tag.
10. Macbook Pro w/ Retina Display
Part of me believes I want it because its a new product from Apple, but there is the other part of me that believes I need it because the retina display will allow me to better my work and school assignments. The truth is I just bought an HP laptop in November of 2011 so I probably don't need it. I am team Apple and have a iMac, iPhone, iPad, & iPod so it would be beneficial to have an Apple laptop that would make it easier to manage my work and assignments between all of my devices. I like that the screen is 15 inches because my laptop has a 17 inch screen which makes it almost impossible to fit in any messenger, bookbag, or laptop bag. If I do purchase it will be my Christmas Present to myself since with the Apple Protection Plan I'm looking at dishing out almost 3 thousand dollars.

Nike Hyperposite "Statue of Liberty"
Oh My Goooooooodness. Are you salivating like I am? These are serious aren't they? Okay that's enough I lost my composure there for a minute, I bring you the "Statue of Libery" Hyperposite. Here is a sneak at peek of the new Lady Liberty Nike that will be making its debut at Sunday’s Battle of the Boroughs Championship game at Rivington Court (scheduled for 5:00 p.m.). The green ‘Statue of Liberty’ colorway will become available in November at select retailers.
ITS ALL ABOUT THE SOCKS
Reebok Pump Fury HLS Wolverine
Do you hear that? Yeah its the sound of hell freezing over since I am posting about a Reebok shoe. I am not a fan of Reebok or what I have called them since adolescence "The Bok". The only reason I am typing this post is because this shoe is a Marvel collaboration and I love comic books. The first book I ever read was a comic book. Reebok has drawn inspiration from everyone's favorite adamantium clawed mutant Wolverine.

A Bathing Ape + Marvel Comics - Baby Milo Superheroes Collection
Your eyes are not deceiving you those are really superhero monkeys (Is monkey politically correct or should we call them primates?). A Bathing Ape has teamed up with Marvel Comics again following the success of their Amazing Spider-Man Collection (google it) to release their new The Avengers limited edition collection.
Jack Black Pure Clean Daily Cleanser Review
This is a review on the Jack Black Pure Clean Cleanser. The two in one cleanser features a cleanser as well as a toner to remove oil and dirt and keep the skin fresh and clean. First I have to say I really like Jack Black products mainly because of lot of them are free of the "Bad Stuff" sulfates, parabens, alcohol you know all the junk that drys you out and makes you look like you have crocodile skin. When I judge a character I use the following criteria; how it feels, how it works, how much it costs, and is it easily accessible.

LEVI’S X NIKE SB DUNK LOW PRO QS – DARK OBSIDIAN
In the previous post to this we introduced you to the Levi's and Nike SB collaboration well here is another gem from the collection that is going to drop very soon. The Dark Obsidian colorway of the Nike SB Dunk Low, which is draped in a royal blue denim with a matching mesh tongue and leather Swoosh bordered in Levi’s-inspired copper stitching. A contrasting red rubber outsole with a white midsole complete the look, with matching Nike embroidery on the heel. The stars and stripes make their way onto the graphic insoles, making this a truly special limited edition quickstrike release. This must have drops on August 11th at select retailers. So set aside some of that Jordan Retro budget you have and cop these bad boys.
