There's only so much bullshit in life you can stand and proceed to function normally.

I guess the better statement or question would be, when is the end point of it all?

When you jump start your career at age 20, you think satisfaction will come into play.

Truthfully, satisfaction is never fully obtained. You always want to do more and feel

there's more you should be achieving. Would that be considered greed?(shrugs)

At any rate, I'm 21 now with less than 5 friends, working for Lots of Style, and 

going to school for God knows what reason. Before, I was pretty content with this.

Now, I feel this is pure bullshit. I got an invite to Capsule men's show in Paris

and it dawned on me...there's a lot more I could be doing. I'm a firm believer in 

"competition". If you're in an environment where progression is slow, then you 

unconsciously become a mediocre counterpart. If you're in an environment constantly 

flourishing, you have no choice but to exceed your potential .....unless of course,

you just suck at your craft. lmao. Maybe I'm just rambling right now, but these 

are just my thoughts..... for now at least.

The brand "City of Savages" has a tag line intriguing enough to ponder over

and wonder "what does it really mean"? Designer Caesar recently released 

the latest shoot for the brand as well as the meaning behind the "Live Free or Die".

Whenwe say "Live free or Die" it isn't to be taken as a threat....its meant as a realization that if you aren't doing (or taking steps in preparation to do) what u love/makes u happy in your life..in reality you're DEAD...the "walking dead" to be exact just like the majority of people in this country who just go about their everyday life being miserable and not fulfilling their destiny because their scared of what'll happen if they fail... You are wasting what little time you have here on this planet when you fear something as inevitable as change....

   Logo T-shirt-The other two shirts are the City of Savages Logo which simply represents City of Savages as the ultimate product of    its enviorment with its fresh but gritty persona

White floppy ears paired with a fluffy puff of a tail = Bunnies.

Art exhibition showcasing the work of artist Paper Frank featured paintings

of common characters, but in different perspectives. Each painting gave a 

different view, different emotion, and different thought. Hosted by the New Era

flagship store here in Atlanta, the "hipsters" were in for a nice treat.

Creating a new platform for fashion designers, Regine Harr opens a new 

void for fashion. Nelou.TV gives you the option of going beyond the designs,

and into the mind of the designer. Here's the press release:

WWW.NELOU.TV – Signed Sealed Delivered – nelou.tv out now!!!

Introducing an online Late Night Show, where you meet your designers

“I don't design clothes. I design dreams.” Ralph Lauren

                         …but who are those people that are designing those dreams….

nelou.tv is where you get to know the designers behind the clothes you are wearing. The fashion industry is undergoing the changes the music industry has undergone 10 -15 years ago, i.e. young musicians and new comer bands started presenting themselves on the internet via myspace and youtube. However the fashion industry is still in the early stages in trying to close that gap, nelou will be the medium for every designer to present themselves to the public.

nelou.tv is a late night show format where fashion designers get introduced to the public. We as buyers want to relate to the designers whose clothes we love so much and we are wearing. As in the movie or music industry, we do not only care about a movie or an album but we also want to know who that person is and what inspires him/her. Is a designer person straight up boring :), well in that case, we might not really like to wear his/her cloths, but when we feel like this is a really cool person we are more inclined to wear that persons designs.

So be inspired by our guest and enjoy the show. It is really entertaining and for everyone. The show is more an entertaining late night show than a fashion show. The show will be for everyone that wants to have a good laugh and learn something new every time they watch.

The site is in the beginning stages with this fresh idea, but I look forward to see

how this concept develops. Visit www.nelou.tv .
