Fashion Followers & Bait Brands

Posted on September 7, 2015 by lizzyldn

Fashion Followers don’t you just hate them? Fashion Followers isn’t something new, they’ve been around ruining trends since before I can remember. Don’t get me wrong if you are a company owner with an upcoming product for example a Segway board and you suddenly start making racks due to young adults buying your gear all of a sudden you’re in luck, but if you’re that exclusive guy who had a Segway before everyone else you’d be pretty annoyed that you’ve gone from exclusive Eric to starter pack Paul in a couple of weeks. Since we talking about Segway boards let’s start with that shall we…

Segway boards burst onto the scene in Summer 2015 and is now a worldwide phenomenon from when you have celebrities like Chris Brown and Trey Songz using it. That was all cool until the legendary FFS had to step in. Follow Fashion Society or FFS as I like to call them just come with there mighty habit of rinsing out a trend and just destroying it, remember Air Huaraches… yeah neither do I. Like I was saying Segways came out for around £200 and I thought “Oh a decent fee, nobody finna pay 2 bills for this” oh how wrong was I… I went on snapchat the week after the Segway buzz started only to see a quarter of my mates (I fortunately have mates who like to waste there money) all on Segways I didn’t understand it. Me personally I could never get that board because its a waste of money and I don’t know about you yeah but my balance is shocking.

Designer clothing too me is losing its meaning and value due to a lot of people spending there last penny too look wavey in designer whether it would be spending £355 on a new pair of Balenciaga Arenas, spending £150+ on a Burberry shirt or spending £500+ on Guiseppe Zanotti’s. Not going to lie when I was like 18 I used to see my mates with Guiseppe’s and Balenciagas and I was just wearing my dead Nike trainers and it made me lowkey sour, so when I actually decided to do overtime at work to buy a pair it was a relief but I was lucky cause I had decent dress sense before so it actually looked like I could afford it, but I don’t get how you can go to a motive like a rave or apartment party and you got on fresh Balenciagas but you can’t buy yourself a drink or you be wearing washed out garms. It’s the same with girls some of you FFS girls will spend bills on stuff like LV Bags and make up but can’t pay for cab back to your gaff. Shame on you boo. Another thing that really baffles me is if you can’t afford the designer don’t try buy a fake version of it and think you can get away with it. It’s never that deep taking the risk and getting exposed for having fake clothes. I’ve been out and about and I have seen certain individuals in fake designers, even when I’m out with my girlfriend she can spot a fake Louis Vuitton bag from a mile away. It’s never that deep go buy something cheaper if you can’t afford the real deal. Topshop and River Island deya unah!

Now I have got that out of the way lets talk about brands that are very bait in today’s young community, there aren’t a lot of really bait brands, a lot of people say Balenciaga is a bait brand…. no. Balenciaga Arena’s are bait sneakers because fraud boys want to do guy. Balenciaga clothing on the other hand I’ve never seen no one wear their clothes and barely anyone wears the other Balenciaga sneakers because they cost a lot more so let’s get that out of the way. The first brand that will be given the sword has to be Prada. Black man really destroyed Prada uno them patent leather Prada sneakers are like a staple in every black person’s wardrobe. Especially if you’re a roadmen if you ain’t got Pradas then bravo to you. Now you could say people only rinse out Prada kicks but I see a lot of people in Prada hats and Prada pouches.

Another bait designer brand is Armani Exchange, put AX and Prada together and poof you got yourself a prestige roadman; me personally I am actually a big fan of Armani Exchange simply because they give students discount and they sell really nice t shirts and really nice jackets but yeah that’s all well and nice until you go too a motive and 8 people wearing the same jumper as you, see that’s annoying. These two brands are the most common but I could of mentioned brands like; Burberry, Ralph Lauren, True Religion and Guissepe but those brands are fraud boy delights not everyone can actually afford that. Thanks for tuning in too this weeks blog and sorry for the delay, going to keep posting every one or two weeks so stay tuned. And if you don’t already follow me on twitter my @ is lizzyldn_. Have a good day.

Jeans & What Jeans Go With Certain Trainers

Posted on August 26, 2015 by lizzyldn

In modern day fashion the way your jeans fit with your trainers can be what makes or breaks the trainers and your entire outfit that you are wearing, girls nowadays will look at a males jeans and trainers when they first see them so its all great that you got on the coldest Balenciagas but if you wearing 40W 40L Levi’s no one is going to know because they will be shrouded by the jeans you are wearing. Me personally I wear Skinny jeans simply because I like the fit and also because they are easy to wear with the type of trainers that I wear. I wear what I like to call skinny trainers for example Air Max 90s and Air Huaraches.

Skinny jeans do not work with all trainers. For example Air Max 95s with skinny jeans might not always work in my opinion you need to wear a slimmer pair of jeans so that the bottom of the jeans just touch the shoe. Another thing I have noticed is that males don’t have a clue what type of jeans to wear when they are wearing Balenciagas whether they are wearing Arenas or Monochromes. I have been to parties and raves and just been horrified seeing males wearing straight legs jeans with Balenciagas like come on bro you’re making the shoe look bad. Me personally I own a pair of Balenciaga Monochromes and I also used to own Arenas so I know what jeans can be used to unleash the true potential of the kicks. For Arenas due to its wide fit I would most definitely recommend slim to skinny fit jeans, same with Monochromes but skinny jeans would defo look better due to it being a slim high top shoe. Designer trainers like high and mid top Guiseppe’s can be worn a little better with slim jeans but skinny jeans do the job as well it’s all down to preference. There are kicks that can handle all of types of jeans, like for example Adidas Superstars, you can wear all types of jeans and still pull them off due to its size and big range styles. I would defiantly recommend Superstars for anyone looking for a reasonable priced shoe purpose, will last forever.

My favourite pair of jeans have got to be Biker Jeans I’ve always been a big fan of biker jeans, from when I saw artists like Young Thug, Future and Quavo (from Migos) wearing them but at the time I thought they was wearing just normally jeans I never knew what they were until I grew up and actually decided to look into it. Balmain Paris. No one is going to pay around 700 for jeans I can understand that to be honest neither would I, you can buy a car with that, I can buy some nice ass Louboutins with that. For people who want to look into Biker jeans but don’t want to pay a lot of money but want to spend a decent amount of money on some very good looking quality jeans I would recommend looking at the Represent Clothings biker selection I was very impressed with the design and quality with jeans and the overall fit. The website for these jeans is Represent Clothing.

Another thing I want to discuss is ripped jeans, now last year and even this year we have seen a high number of females and males wearing ripped jeans, some people wear jeans with one or two rips and some take it out of control and show they whole leg. Me personally I am a big fan of ripped jeans if they are ripped right, I rip my own jeans and believe me its all about trial and error I have jeans that I have managed to rip correctly and neatly I also have have ones that I have destroyed (most recently destroying a pair two days ago). If you are going to wear rip jeans, it would be better to make the rips look a little more professional then make them look like they were fighting with a lion or just buy ready ripped jeans from the store but hey that’s just my view on it everyone has there taste I’m just sharing mine.

This was just a short first post about my opinion on jeans and how they can be worn with certain trainers that I decided to choose, hope you enjoy it and I will be posting another blog soon about popular trainers in teenager/young adult culture, hope you have a good day.
