Threadless.com is a site I discovered with a simple Google search for "cool shit to wear". Artists send in their drawings and design ideas to Threadless and Threadless turns the cool stuff into t-shirts. It's about as simple as it gets, and it seems like they produce some awesome stuff, although you have to dig around the site a bit because some of their shirts scream douchebaggery.
The shirt above is probably my favorite of the bunch. A really pimped out picture of Little Red Riding Hood with a wolf skin on her head. The drawing reminds me of something you'd see in a graphic comic book. The only bad thing about Threadless is it looks like the shirts sell out pretty quick, and they don't necessarily reprint them. They only have XL sizes of this one left. Oh well, still a fucking awesome shirt.

I once read that your jacket is the most important article of clothing you wear because it is the first thing people see. Personally, I've never been a fanatic about jackets, but I concede this point: when it's cold out, people will see you in your jacket A LOT, so it probably pays to have something nice.
I own a leather jacket and I've done just about everything to it to make it look cooler, short of setting it on fire. I think the "rugged" look is what you're going for with a leather jacket. To me, the jacket above is almost perfect. Nice touch with the zippers, although I can live without the straps on the shoulders. If I was going to buy a new leather jacket, it would be this one (although then I'd have to beat the shit out of it all over again...)
Oh, and in case you care, David Beckham has sported this jacket in a couple of photos. So that automatically makes it cool! Right?!?!

For awhile, I was very anti-t-shirt. It was because I saw t-shirts as very impractical: you can only wear them when it's warm outside, and swanky places usually won't let you in with them. About a year ago, I changed my tune, mainly because the cool graphics you can get on a t-shirt far outweigh the negatives. In winter, you can just throw a thermal on underneath the shirt, and if you wear a cool blazer over the tee, *most* places will let you in.
That being said, I'm still kind of picky about what kind of tees I sport. When I first got into graphic tees, I thought the Affliction-type stuff was cool. I grew out of that pretty quick and now I go for things that stand out, but not *too* much. I think this tee, from Green Apple Tree, is a pretty awesome example of a shirt I would wear. It catches your eye, but it doesn't overwhelm it. Anything with a kind of sexy looking girl on the front works for me :-)J$
I've always liked fashion, so I figured everyone blogs these days, why not me??!?!!? I'm just going to post random stuff related to materialistic things, like clothes, haircuts and other cool things. I think of fashion as anything that catches the eye. So welcome to my world, enjoy your stay....
