My life could be cheaper if I only knew how to make shoes.


GIVING YOU THE EVENING LOOK

How long has it been?  Too long.  I’ve been a busy messy bee livin it up after my bday…but I’m taking a break, catch up with some prahjeks, and work on losing this water weight before the next SummerTramp (fun times btw but, definitely not going into the pool next time). Alchohol…does your body no good and makes you a mess…well binge drinking does :)

Onto this post, check out Gaybydedios and Jessica Currie rocking the SS 10 MOTO VEST, giving you the night time look.  Thanks for the pics guys!

AND for a treat.  A Messy Style Collabo by yourstrulymoi and Badmutha



ROME WAS NOT BUILT IN A DAY

It takes work and love to get this OLD and I couldn’t have done it without the building blocks from all of my LOVED ONES.

Ok, enough sappiness and more happYness.

A few new Prahjeks:

  • Sleeveless Inspired Shirt
  • New Ankle Boots
  • I lost 22 lbs (woot woot).  No, I did not do crack or starved myself.  Hit me up for details, no worries…I work in the nutrition industry remember? (I lost weight the healthiest way that worked for me)

Celebrated my LA BDay dinner at The Must Bar in DTLA.  Orchestrated by Tangstar and a BadMutha

And of course… MJ’s

And then finally…Vegas with the Dingles

So, I’ve been wanting new shoes and I haven’t really gotten a chance to shop.  So what did I do? Voila



SS10 MOTOR VEST

Made by yours truly.MeMyselfandMoi :)

Photography by BadMutha and Yours Truly

(On Me: SS10 Motor Vest, Plain White Hanes undershirt, Cut Off/Rolled Up Levis, Grey Hanes Socks, Thrifted Hurache, Oliver Peoples Sunglasses, and TopMan Two Fingered Alligator Ring – a gift from a Bad Mutha.

On BadMutha: SS10 Motor Vest and whatever she had in her studio, same accessories though)

So, last year I made a Summer Tuxedo, which I basically trimmed the sleeves of a thrifted tuxedo jacket to a short sleeve length.  Well this SS10 (since it’s still kind of cold-which gives me a reason to layer-because I’m PHAT) I bring to you a Motor Vest.

This vest could be worn by itself to show your guns during the day or wear it as a second layer at night.  The fabric is of this Lightweight Grey Jersey Knit so, it’s perfect for this current Socal weather.

You may notice that it might look asymmetrical…but, it is. Short at the back and longer in the front, almost like a mullet? Anyway, it’s asymmetrical with an asymmetrical zipper.

I’m thinking of making one in lightweight denim with frayed edges.  We’ll see.

You like?  Hit me up :)

  • The Process:

This took me 8 hours to complete. No, not all in one sitting…I spent 4 days (2 hours/day) working on it.  And guess what? I didn’t even have to tear anything up to use as a pattern. Say what?????? WORD.

Oh how I love this part of the country.  From the Hustle and Bustle-Concrete Jungle in NYC to the Deers roaming in backyards, front lawns, garbage cans in New Joyzee.  *sigh* Hopefully you’ll NYCee me there in a year.

So today I felt like doing a style blog. There aren’t much stylish people here at work so, what I did was I asked my friends to take a picture of their outfits today and send them to me via MMS. PRONTO style. 

Most were like “What for?”, “No, I look whack and dirty”, “I’m in bed sick. I look gross”.  While some others were I guess feeling cute and were up for the game. 

Thanks for playing guys! 

- CHAI @ work. She was the most full out with her umm…photoshoot (she gave me a whole bunch of close ups and detail of her outfit.

- EMULAN Up In The Air (Seattle Bound)

- TULIE Cuties @ work (Tu and Julie)

-  SCUBAJO by Gap & ROOKSIEDEAR by…?  Rooksiedear’s MMS included:  “why??”

- THE GAY BRIGADE After School Special

I’ve had these moccasins for about two years and I think I’ve only worn them…twice.

Boredom almost got the best of me last night until I went happy-feet-crazy studding and spiking. *whew*

Oh ps, these were just a spur of the moment Prahjeks. I’ll be posting more stuff…maybe this weekend.
