Summer has come and almost gone even quicker! With so many fashion companies hittin the market hard there are a few that stood out immensely. I’ve been a Nixon Watch fan for years, and I wanted to see what was new for this season. Among a wristful of new watches, Nixon has also seemed to be all about white. From the ties to the new hoody, they clearly were going for an intellectual feel. Check out the entire lineup here www.nixonnow.com/mens/.

Our sponsors Karmaloop fashion show footy! I just love these guys. No one has a better clothing selection online! I don’t mean that loosely either, post in the comments any online store you think has more or even close the amount of selection as Karmaloop.

LA is holding it down! I know not all of you are skaters but the culture fits right in with style and just plain “ill”. Some of the finest young skaters showed up and ripped it for fun and for the title - “King Of LA“.

Wow…doesn’t that make your mouth water? I’ve had the please of ordering from zChocolate as my first online chocolate purchase. From the moment that first kiss of chocolate hit my tongue, to the final moments of me eating the last chocolate before sun down, my taste buds cheered in excitement. zChocolate has selected the world’s ultimate best chocolates made exclusively by 4 renowned French chocolatiers. Not only do they make a great gift to yourself and you gut, they also cater to the business world. The luxury chocolate company packages several VIP gift baskets that make the perfect corporate gift.

One of the very few* down sides to living in Canada is that we don’t get all the goodies. Eventually they come trickling down the tech ladder and I eventually get my hands on them. I was just admiring the beauty of the beast, shopping around the web. I found a few cool iPhone videos showing off its features like the coffee and coin visuals. I managed to find the best price at the Apple Store which you can buy online for $599 USD. Accessories are must. As of the moment there isn’t a whole lot ready available, but I managed to find this rivet headset for the iPhone. Rivet mobile headsets for music phones combine premium stereo earphones with an in-line microphone to provide users with superior sound quality and voice clarity. These headsets feature a one-touch answer/end button and allow your music to mute with incoming calls and resume once the call ends.

 

Little is know about where these cigars come from, but for a cool $950 USD you too can own a 48 pack of Tony Soprano endorsed cigars. This is the type of cigar you bring to a new years party. Who could turn down such an endorsement? I for one could not! If you would like to pick these up you can buy online here.

MIXTAPE 82 - JAY ELECTRONICA

If you haven’t peeped Dex Digital from “The Mixtape Show” I suggest you head on over to his site asap! It’s been little over a year since this Hip Hop podcast got started and the only other show that comes close is Indiefeeds Hip Hop Show. It’s almost not fair to compare them even because one is a mixtape, and the other is episode after episode of ill underground tracks.

The latest episode of Indiefeeds podcast features that man from the west coast, PlanetAsia. The track title is “Havin Thangs” from the lp Jewelry Box Sessions. I have both these shows rigged up in iTunes so I never miss a beat! I’ve found myself discovering 100% of my new music through podcasts which has been imho the best way to get it these days. There’s really no need for record companies anymore within this digital age so it’s good to let up and coming artists to get their chance. If anyone out there has a podcast or any music to promote feel free to send it our way - illstyling@gmail.com.
