Blackberry Bold (A.K.A. iPhone Killer) is about to drop


FINALLY!!! After many delays, its official drop date is NOVEMBER 4th. So everyone can go out and get their vote on then stop by their nearest AT&T store and pick one up on their way home. Told my mom to wait, and grab this one unfortunately she can be impatient at times, and she just got the curve. And as for me, it sux cuz my contract isn't up till this coming February. But you can bet it will be taken under serious consideration for my next phone. Hopefully it'll be a bit cheaper by then to.

Pricing:
$299 with a 2-Year Contract
The mail-in rebate is for $100, and if you're not down with a 2-year agreement, the Bold will run $375 with a 1-year contract (and the same $100 mail-in rebate), and $550 with no contract.

Features:

In addition to the renowned BlackBerry productivity applications — including phone, e-mail, messaging, organizer and browser — the BlackBerry Bold from AT&T will boast such AT&T services as:

· Simultaneous Voice and Data Capabilities — When connected to AT&T's 3G network, customers can conduct a phone conversation and at the same time check e-mail, browse the Web or use another data application, including when tethered to a notebook computer.

AT&T customers can get spoken or text-based turn-by-turn directions with automatic missed turn rerouting and a local business finder service in 20 countries.

Schmoove Boat Shoes

Schmoove always add their own twists to simple shoes. This time its the Boat shoes they have laid their hands on. These shoes are so much more aggressive that the regular Sperry Striders. They look more Pirate ship shoes than Boat shoes to me. Love the laces and the other details on this. Plus they're actually on sale here.

This Weeks: Women of the The Sartorialist






This a new thing I'm gonna start doing. Young and Old, I'm not gonna discriminate, these women exemplify style, beauty, confidence, and elegance. I had a conversation with one of my boys awhile back and both agreed that any girl I'm interested must have their own style, and I shouldn't have to tell her what looks good, she should already know what looks good on her. That's not to say she'd have to spend all kinds of bread on clothes, simplicity can be key, what matters most is how it is put together and how she carrys herself. Most times, I see peoples clothes as a visual extention of ones personality and character, if that makes sense lol.

^^^That jacket looks incredible.




This is probably the most impressive line I've ever seen from them. They've really step their game up. I'd cop pretty much everything.

This Weeks: MUSIC ON REPEAT.








Pretty much everything on all these albums are GOLD. I really liked certain songs on alot of these albums for a long time. But it really wasnt until recently till most of these albums as a WHOLE clicked and I really got the message/concept they were trying to convey.

Marketing at it's best



As part of Gap’s recent “Vote for” launch, a campaign that provides a platform for Americans to express their passions, opinions and ideas this election year, Gap has teamed up with musician Matt White to write and produce “Songs Of Freedom.” The unique song is about the power and importance of self expression and recognizing those who came before us.
From Oct. 24 through Nov. 4, Gap’s New York City concept store, next to its flagship store at 54th & 5th Ave, will give Americans a chance to express themselves in a voting booth of a different kind. Visitors to the store can purchase and create their own personalized “Vote for” t-shirt with Gap’s whimsical t-shirt generator. After casting their vote on how to fill in the blank including color choice, font and “campaign theme song,” guests can watch as their blank “Vote for” t-shirt enters the generator and undergoes a self-expression makeover by a series of robots with their campaign theme song blasting in the background.
Additionally, “Vote for” t-shirts inspired by the thought leaders and celebrities featured on gap.com/votefor, including Bill Maher, Norman Lear, Cameron Sinclair, Perez Hilton, Mark Cuban, Olivia Munn, Kristen Bell, The Cool Kids, John Picard and Minka Kelly will be on display.
Such a simple idea, but brilliant. bet they're gonna sell bunch of these. If I was political I'd buy one. They still got me though, the PRODUCT RED stuff had me convinced I was saving the world. And I was sorta I guess. I'm a sucker for good causes.
