3/12/16 O&A NYC ITS SATURDAY- ANYTHING GOES: Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2016 Mens Fashion Show- Paris Fashion Week
The Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2016 Mens Fashion Show during Paris Fashion Week presented a youthful relaxed luxe look. Featuring jackets cut from indigo-dyed Kobe leather (the cows are massaged with sake; the hides are sun-dried). The pearls that appeared as accessories were also indigo-dyed, actually in the shell. And there was a small group of fully reversible pieces made from organza-backed lambskin, so ludicrously light that they were practically incomprehensible. Continue reading

3/8/16 O&A NYC WITH WaleStylez FASHION: Kanye Spotted Wearing New Yeezy Boosts at LAX Airport
By Adewale Adekanbi Jr.
While it’s still unclear whether the low-top Yeezy Boost from Season 3 will be an updated 350 or the new rumor 550 version, Kanye was photographed at LAX airport wearing a pair of the sneakers that have been making the rounds lately. The kicks appear slightly higher than the 350s around the ankles and don’t include the heel tab, making us wonder if this is an entirely new silhouette altogether. The brown and tan shoes also feature a bright orange stripe running along the upper, giving it a distinct look from its more neutral predecessors.

3/3/16 O&A NYC WITH WaleStylez Fashion: GucciGhost Walks The Catwalk At The Gucci 2016 Fashion Show
By Adewale Adekanbi
Gucci-Ghost, otherwise known as Trouble Andrew, is a NYC-based graffiti artist that made his name by spray painting his stylized take on Gucci’s double G logo pattern on walls and dumpsters around his neighborhood.
But rather than suing his irreverent ass into financial oblivion, the Italian fashion house enlisted him as a collaborator for its FW16 collection.
Ghost’s tags appeared on Gucci carrier bags and on pieces throughout the new seasonal range. Another example of urban art effecting the mainstream fashion industry.
