This past week i had a minute to cruise to Downtown LA to see an old friend and check out the new mens line G.P.P.R. Bam Barcena is the Designer and Founder of this line that reiterates masculine style, attention to detail and comfort. Bam has a long history in fashion and it is great to see him come out with his own line that really reverberates his vision and style. In the studio you can see his influences everywhere, what caught my eye was the 10 hole Doc Martin Steelies with the white laces, it is funny how the past has caught up with me. I believe that both Bam and I grew up loving the Ska Punk scene (circa 90’s) of So. Cal. and the style that was present then emulates from the designs and colors of that era. Below is a great song from the past that will play along nicely with this post.
I have to say that this line is paired with great wovens, jackets, and denim that really give this collection a well rounded look.
Full Japanese Demin that was so soft and broken in, goodbye A.P.C / Love the paper canvas hang tag great detail.
Studio coffee table, inspiration all around, and semi-rimless is always a good look.
Its rough in the streets.
Here is a sneak peek at next season, the denim jacket is on fire. Peep Revolve Clothing for current collection and pick them up.
I have been in a dry spell when it has come to new music, but when had the opportunity to see Sacramento based quartet Sister Crayon live @ Spaceland back in the fall of 2010 i was instantly hooked. The refreshing and ethereal sound of Sister Crayon was a welcoming sound that really moved the crowd and with there new release i am continually impressed by the creativity and high caliber musicianship.
Sister Crayon started out as something small and quiet at first, vocalist Terra Lopez started as a solo artist playing classical guitar and pre-programmed beats on a loop pedal to attentive house crowds. With the addition of members Dani Fernandez (MPC 1000 and Microkorg), Nicholas Suhr (Drums and Percussion) and Jeffrey LaTour (Keyboards, Synths, Guitars, etc.), Sister Crayon has emerged as a four-piece whose emotional live performances along with their styles of ambiance, hip-hop, and “hysteria” have created a stir with their EP release, “Enter Into Holy (or)ders”. With their debut LP entitled “Bellow” that was released this week. The song Souls of Gold (above) is my favorite off their recent EP release.
SC recently collaborated with the talented photographer Eliot Lee Hazel and really killed it. The photography is really on point and the refreshing landscape of the sea paired with early American settler themes is very interesting.

For the last few posts we have been focused on French food, Paris, and Editorial from the region. Yesterday we had the pleasure of crossing paths with Theophilus London who hails from Brooklyn, NY here at the Oliver Peoples showroom. We have done a few posts on his music and creative videos, currently he has been hustling around the globe performing, writing and producing music for his upcoming album. I have been following Theo now for the last year or so, if you have not downloaded his mixtape you are really missing out.
Here is Theo wearing the MOSLEY TRIBES Burke in Karamore Tortoise, will be dropping very soon at a retailer near you. You can catch Theo tonight at the Downtown Standard Hotel in Los Angeles where he is performing to jumpoff the Culture Collide Festival, See you there.
The weekend is upon us and i wanted to support some of our local boys in SD, have to say that i love the beat simple bluesy west coast underground sound that takes me back to late 90’s, love it. This video is straight So. Cal to the fullest, shout out to mario and The Upstarts crew.
