Fashion, Music, Dolls
Apparently 'Barbie' is definitely making a comeback!
I have been seeing it at Fashion Weeks - at LGFW in Toronto this spring you could get into a booth and have your picture snapped next to a real-life Ken model. (ugh!)
Judging by my reaction, you might realize that I wasn't the biggest Barbie fan..
Yes, I did have one or two, but that's just cause I am a commie-girl (as my husband likes to jocking-ly call me!). I spent my early childhood in Bulgaria, was born before '89 (for those of you who don't know, that was before the fall of the Berlin wall), and was very lucky to have had a father who travelled around the world and brought me cool things! (I was apparently the only baby back in '85 who had Pampers on and the nurses had no idea how to change me during my monthly check-ups. I find that funny now!)
Back to Barbies and dolls...It was the coolest thing when I got my "Preggers Barbie" - the only thing that turned me off (and put an end to my fascination with dolls), was the fact that you pretty much had to snap her in half at the waist to get that baby out. I wonder if that's the reason why I don't want any babies now, hmm?!
Anywayz..back to my original thought! Again..
As much as Barbie encompasses the kinda chick I don't want to be (kinda high-maintanance), I am loving Santigold's doll in the new Beastie Boys "Don't play no game". And in true summer fashion trends (I've been reporting on my obsession with knuckle-rings on the 'Fashionably Present' blog) she is rocking the bling rings and pairing it with matching gold-painted nails! Don't even get me going on the cat-eye!! Briliant!
Did you see the boys' orange jumpsuits?! Definitely not looking like they be sitting behind bars! (Seriously though!)

SUPRA Presents: Go Skateboarding Day NYC
I hope all of my skate peeps got out on the most magnificent day of the year and pushed against all limitations that society sets on us skateboarders and hit the streets to cause some serious mayhem. The Supra team was no exception, Chad Muska, TK, Lizard King and Spencer Hamilton join thousands in New York City on Go Skateboarding Day. The edit follows the boys throughout the city as they mash every spot! Enjoy

New York Subway 1986
New York Subway 1986!!
Graffiti, Street Art, Bombing, & Free Expression! Whatever one you choose it is all about pushing it to the limit and getting your name out there. NYC Subway System. before the "Clean Train" policy went into effect. The nostalgic footage was shot with 16mm film camera, exposing the graffiti subway cars and the excitement of Time Square station in 1986. A great portrayal of graffiti & hip hop culture. Enjoy My Peoples
