The End.: The Price Is Right

The Price Is Right

Thank you New York for a great summer but Im back in Atlanta for the Fall and Im so excited. Classes are starting at the end of the month so I've returned early to get my schedule and my new apartment together. Now Im not even gonna front, when I think of decorating I think of going to a garage sale ( think vintage ) Wal-Mart or Ikea-they have the best for the money. That's some free advice from me to you. Im sure some of you are aware of kea and her powers!!! You can spend hundreds of dollars on decor if you want to but give me some pocket change and I'll give you Paris in the Spring. So today my friend Kj Stuckey and I went to Ikea and boy did we kill it.

Because my new room is real big Im going for a very open posh look-tons of flowers, fashion magazines all over the place, mannequins-Im weird. Since Im starting from scratch the people at Ikea let me take a few photo's for review to make sure I looked good in it-they even had a mock up of a closet that looked like Kimora's, it was FIERCE ( which is a late word by the way ).

Audrey Hepburn piece- 69.99

Kimora's closet.

After I checked out I couldn't help but get the fat free yogurt cone for $1-they said that and the 50. cent hot dog is a must, but see I don't do dogs ( on that Marcus Lloyd diet ) so I passed. I must admit, once I got home I was pissed to find out that I had to put the shit together myself.

So my bedroom still sits in the box.

She likes BKC. I like Epiphany.

I think it's very important to surround yourself with a positive team of people. Fresh ideas are always grown. It's such an organic feeling when you've found your inner circle. Who do you influence?

She likes BBC. I like Lanvin.

We're back at it again. Another year a harder hustle. 2 different coast. New York-our future home. Atlanta-our playground. Sham & I work together because we are so different. She's has the swagg and I have the in your face attitude. It's the perfect mix. She's simple. Im complex. We never try too hard. All this comes natural.

She likes Pharrell. I like Kanye.

Sham & I met almost 2 years ago. From that moment I knew we would be partners in this game. I remember our first meeting, it was at a photoshoot for LateBoots. I walked in the room and said "hi Sham it's nice to finally meet you", then we just went to work. It was so natural.

She's Edie. Im Andy.

Since we are a duo so many people say we remind them of Edie Sedgwick & Andy Warhol. She's the girl everybody likes. Im the guy that everybody loves to hate. Im cocky, arrogant, an asshole at times yet she is the georgia peach. She really isn't. I just get blamed for everything because Im the obvious bad guy. She is worse than me.

She's Brooklyn. Im Harlem.

Summer '08 we both interned in New York. She did Complex and I was at GIANT Magazine. I stayed in Harlem and she was in Brooklyn. She hated coming to Harlem and I hated going all the way out to BK. For our move to NYC we're gonna share an apartment, we're tossing a coin to determine where we'll stay.

She likes Michael. I like Prince.

We always argue who's the best performer out of the two. I believe Prince was for obvious reasons. He had swagg, what man do you know can get away with wearing heels and make-up? If you ask me Michael did all of that work to his face so he could look like Prince.

She likes Nike. I like YSL.

I once tried to buy a pair of Nike sneakers but they were to boyish for me. Trade is what you call it. Nike called up Sham and she went to New York to make her very own sneaker. It was dope. I would wear it. But instead I purchased some YSL sneakers. I like YSL.

She likes Marc Jacobs. I like Genevieve Jones.

I first saw Jones on style.com, I was like who is this skinny black girl tipping around New York. She's so chic. When Sham & I were in New York this past summer she actually met Jones at an event. I was sick because I should've been the one in the picture.
