LAX TO PARIS TO BERLIN

What is it about Paris that is so bitter sweet? 


I arrived via first class Lufthansa, last Wednesday afternoon. It was 45 degrees outside and the Dunhill I was smoking went numb after 2 minutes. The faces that passed me by were beautiful and what I would do to spend more time here. 


I am eating steak frite, drinking 50ML of Bordeaux and people watching. The Dior scent from Colette smells like Tripp. That does remind me to call him upon my return. I have decided to wear nothing but black from here on however,  I doubt that will be executed as I own nothing black. 


I observe the hundreds of faces that stand next to me on the underground between Saint-Philippe du- Roule and the Voltaire exit. I am listening to "The Logic Of Pleasure" by Blank + Jones. Every morning we endured a single shot macchiato from Startbucks and H&M does come in a size EUR 44. According to FHM Collections Magazine from Germany, the jacket I purchased is part of the latest trend. 


Berlin was beautiful. Dark, minimal and to the point.

Where Shall We Sit?


We spend eighty percent of our day sitting. On the phone talking to the same people, trying to close the came deals; just so we can enjoy the finer things in life like Rolex Submariner's and Daytona's. Well maybe that and some fresh vegetables from Dina and Deluca. But honestly, do you ever look in the mirror, pull your hair back, splash hot water on you face and begin questioning everything you have done thus far? 



Wear: Rolex Daytona // Because You're So $$$ It


This weekend, we began indulging in our favorite red wine again and shopped. I tend to drink whites in the summer and to only decant in the fall. Our favorite red at the moment is from Saddlerock vineyard based out of Malibu, California. 

Try: 2006 Saddlerock CABERNET SAUVIGNON

The seductive 2006 Saddlerock Cabernet will awaken your senses with its subtle balance of cherry, vanilla, and a touch of nutmeg. 

Shop Rogan: The Fall /Winter 2008 collection is brilliant. Great minimal tee's that are ready to wear on any occasion. 

And when nothing else makes sense and you begin questioning yourself over and over again, pick up your iPod and listen to: Bob Dylan's 'Blond On Blond' because I heard this album saves lives!

MGMT We're So Sorry!


It's not difficult to give a bad review to the MGMT show I attended last night. What should have been a one hour set of an album run through (hit after hit) was in fact a Led Zeppelin jam session of fifteen minute songs that made everyone and myself yawn. At least we got to see them in an intimate setting. My apologies to you if you're attending the Beck show Saturday night. Then again I may be the only person that thought last night's show was mediocre. LA shows should not be like Boston shows. LA = short attention span and a DUI after 12:15AM. Boston = smoke a joint, rock out to Zeppelin and use the public transport back to the BU dorms.

But we did enjoy our company and dinner at Katsuya before was fantastic.

K1LL3R

Have you ever been in a place where everyone around you accepts and understands you for who you are and what you contribute to society, but there is that one person that as hard as your try, as much as you care and as determined you become, will never and chooses to never understand?

We are listening to much sounds today and have come across some new artists I encourage you to download. 

On the list: 
You, Me and the Bourgeoisie by The Submarines
Out of Place by WAZ
Toothpaste Kisses by The Maccabees

Song of The Day: 
Repetition Kills You by The Black Ghosts

And of course there is a symbolic meaning behind this track. To live your life and continuing to repeat each day like the last, to keep trying and never succeeding and to stay liner instead of going out there and giving it all a chance. 
Well, so many people do and for that, repetition will kill you.

So here's the deal. Sean at Dior left word on my mobile yesterday mentioning that my cologne is sold out across the country. I was like, "You got to be kidding me." Only I would wear a scent that you can no longer buy. And of all things, it was sold out in Hawaii as well. WHAT!!!! Hawaii. Are surfers wearing Dior? 

All in all, we're on a waiting list for Bois d’Argent:
