What we do and how we do it so well

Tired of t-shirts that are uncomfortable and don't fit individual personalities, we were searching for something fresh and unique. We finally found what we were looking for but the brands that sold the clothing were high end, exclusive, and expensive. So, with this in mind, we made it our goal to solve this problem as well as others and create a high-end, exclusive, and inexpensive clothing brand that would cater to the consumer. Masculine, Feminine, Black, White, Purple, Green or whatever you want to call it, we are a little bit of everyone and everything. We represent hype beasts, sneaker heads, high society, the fashionable, the jocks, fixie fiends, the British, the world traveler, trend-setters, the consumer and whomever else you can think of. We are a little cocky and we have the vision, but to be in the business of making clothing you have to be a little out there. To put it in perspective...we are not out there, we are right here and we are right now.

It's the year of the ox but not an excuse to drink like one

Well, I got an invite from my bro Kodi cause he wanted to add some diversity to this blog. This blog is all about what's classy and what's hot today, so I'll cut this intro short and share some advice with all of you college males out there.

You like alcohol. We like alcohol. Whether it's guzzling a keg or getting downright smashed from consecutive shots or drinking a glass of Absolut clean like me, it's all about the blood rush, strobe lights, gorgeous women, and blaring music that keeps us cycling through parties every weekend. But let's be honest, beer bongs and retching in the hallway are not characteristic of gentlemen. So here's are a few suggestions, not a request to change your ways (beer bongs are just far too much fun to give up in college!):

Put down those handles of god-knows what and beers that your frat bros normally provide. You can get drunk without drinking shit. Is that all you can afford? Then stop reading.

You want to stand out? Try something different. Try this. Next time you're at the liquor store, pick yourself up a nice bottle of unflavored vodka (Grey Goose, Absolut, etc). If you still like the party scene, cool, make yourself jello shots, but make it different. You've already gotten the quality liquor, make something cool with it. I personally like to make orange flavored jello; I take an orange, slice it in half, take out the flesh, and then pour orange jello into the molds. That way, when I cut the halves into slices, I get something like this:

(orange jello shots)

So what do you do if you're not really into the party scene? Or you're mortified at using your bottle of Troika for jello shots. Let me tell you about something called mixed drinks. We all know about them. You use cokes as chasers with your rum, red bulls with your vodkas. It isn't coincidence that those are typical drinks found in any bar. Alcohol straight up isn't always very tasty. Solution: Mix them up before hand, be a bartender at your parties. In fact, don't stop there. Go that extra mile and buy yourself some nice glasses and a quality cocktail shaker from Crate and Barrel. Read a few recipes online or buy premade mixes. Make drinks in front of people. Start advertising cosmos, mojitos, tequilas, and apple martinis.

Personally, I get requests all the time to bar tend for my girl friend's parties. It seems like a talent when it's really quite simple to get the basic ropes down. Give it a shot with no pun intended. At the very least, all of these suggestions are far more appealing than those beers you've been providing with vitamin water. It's a new year. Time to class yourself up.
