Today I had a men’s underwear shoot for Tumbler and Tipsy. And my photo is already up on the website. I am very excited!

Thank you very much Lien!

This is going to be a quick and shameless post. I’m going to use Papaya Clothing’s new Banner as my Happy New Year’s to all my readers (mainly because it’s a lot easier than creating my own)

Work at Papaya has been fun AND educational. I mean as a guy I learn a lot about  clothing/fashion, and my girlfriend (Rosalva) actually asks for my opinion on what she’s wearing. It’s kinda cool. And also I have a few more magazine publications that I’ll post soon!

Anyway, my New Year’s Resolutions are to go run (or exercise) and read every single day. This starts tomorrow morning when I play basketball with the members of my new league team ‘Tiger Woods Communications.” Do you have any New Years Resolutions?

Tomorrow will have an exciting post with another Trash The Dress! Stay close!

I am proud to say that I have almost dominated the ‘new arrivals’ section of papayaclothing.com with my work. Total and complete domination are at my fingertips! muahaha! (evil laughter)

New arrivals Page Top half.

New arrivals Page Bottom half.  There’s still two photos of mannequins that haven’t been replaced yet. boo.

Okay so if I was girl, I would dig this. It’s chic, semi-form fitting, sexy and it has cool textured designs (you have to look closely.)  Good for a night out on the town.

And this. I call it the ‘jellyfish brain sac beanie’ or if someone has long hair ‘the octopus’. I think it’s just because I’m lazy with my hair, if I was girl I’d probably lazy with my hair too so I’d just wear this all the time and it would hide everything. Plus it looks really cool and comfortable.

This also. Anything backless, or close to backless is uber sexy. I don’t care what anybody says.  Plus this seems like i would be comfortable on a hot summer night, I’m not sure this would best worn during the day, I’d hate to have a shirt tan that looked like shark gills running from top to bottom on my back.

This is the front of the shirt. See how it’s kinda cool artsy, urban look to it? I can also see people wearing it at hip hop dance competitions, where I see a lot of loosely fitted, airy, and slightly provocative clothing. I love hip hop dance competitions.

Ever since I’ve watched the recently debuted movie “I love you man” with Paul Rudd and Jason Segel I started to like cardigans. It’s a button up sweater, man that’s kind of cool. What I like about it is it has two kinds of cool to it, an urban casual look and also “I go to any ivy league school” smart look.

This scarf is gnarly. I like it because it’s down to earth. It doesn’t shout ‘look at me!” it says “this is comfortable, and looks good.” Plus it’s got three segments, the middle is ribbed and folded for extra comfort (maybe?) and the adjacent ends are wide and simple, and the endings are feathered with little string things. I dig it.
