I'll Tell You How I See Right Thru You... Or Maybe I Should Show You.

QUEENS STAND UP!!! The borough has done it again. LaGuardia High School's own Nicki Minaj has laid claim to her spot. She has personality, perfect timing, powerful punch lines and every now and then pink hair (I LOVE IT!!!). Nicki Minaj (real name: Onika Tanya Maraj), is the hottest (and sexiest) rapper to come along in quite sometime (we dated for a while but I felt I was holding back her career and I wanted the best for her, so we parted ways, TRUE STORY!). Her debut album "Pink Friday" is due out this year and features only the most relevant of artists (nothing but the best for my Nicki). I don't need to say who the REAL inspiration for "Right Thru Me" was... (hint, hint...)

Advanced Swagonomics 103: The Brogue

"Found bravery in my bravado"
Kanye West

Commonly referred to as the "wingtip", the "brogue" is a style of shoe we've all grown accustom to. During our lifetime, it has become recognized as the businessman's shoe. However, over the past few years the brogue has been making a return to its root as a working man's shoe. The shoe has its origins in Scotland and Ireland when it was constructed using untanned leather with perforations that allowed water to drain from the shoes when the wearer crossed wet terrain (the poor always have more style and I count myself among them). I have a rule. Every item you purchase should be able to stand on its own. The brogue meets this requirement.

Ralph Lauren's take on the brogue.

Although, the brogue may appear to be...it should not be taken as a TRENDY item. This is timeless footwear (made for timeless folks). This isn't like the trucker cap. The brogue is steeped in tradition (a tradition that should be honored and appreciated). (Swag on!!! ...wit yo bad self).
