TGI-Fridays with Full House.

Man, those Friday TV line-ups back in the day sure used to be fun to watch... Who doesn't miss the Tanners? Michelle, DJ, Stephanie, Danny, Uncle Jesse, Joey, even ol' Kimmy Gibbler. Anyway, on behalf of myself and a bunch of Full House gifs... Have a nice, fun, fat weekend. Dance your ass off a little...

Pammy Cakes Boutique Throwback.

Nubia Mejia 1:34:00 PM

A while back I did a photoshoot with Pammy Cakes Boutique. A brand created by a friend of mine Pamela Jackson. The clothing line is inspired by Lolita, Gyaru, Mori, Kawaii, Fairy Kei Fashion and basically Japanese street style. Below is a photo I dug up from the archives that I posted on instagram...

Throwback to Sacha Goldberger 'Super Flemish'.

Nubia Mejia 12:46:00 PM

Ok so I know this isn't really a "Throwback" (Dr. Evil Fingers) but I just started this blog recently and was looking for any excuse to feature French Photographers Sacha Goldberger's 'Super Flemish' series. Goldberger took some fictitious pop culture icons such as superheros, fairytale characters...

Women Wednesday: Vintage Film Posters.

Nubia Mejia 1:33:00 PM

I used to go to conventions and always see these awesome vintage film posters or if you want to be fancy "Theatrical Movie Title Lobby Cards". I always coveted them and still can't figure out exactly why... Some of them are very exploiting and trashy. Most of the ones I'm a fan of are horror,...

Fantastic Four - Official Teaser Trailer.

Nubia Mejia 12:11:00 PM

20th Century Fox dropped the Fantastic Four "teaser trailer" today. Check it out below.... From my experience teasers/trailers usually feature the best parts of a film and I'm not too convinced this is going to be so great by seeing this. Hopefully they'll drop another trailer soon. I hope...

Coach X Gary Baseman 2015 Spring Collection Video.

Nubia Mejia 12:18:00 PM

Check out the video for Coach X Gary Baseman's Spring 2015 collection. ...

"Stuart Vevers’ Spring 2015 collection is a journey across America inspired by vintage road-trip cinema and West Coast subcultures of music, skate and surf. The collection evokes what Vevers has described as “a sense of everydayness, twisted.” Featuring darkly playful creatures from Los Angeles artist Gary Baseman and a palette inspired by the eerie colors of the golden hour before sundown, the collection was filmed in a dreamlike rain shower on the streets of Ditmas Park in Brooklyn, New York."

If you're like me you're going to look very closely and try to find all the Gary Baseman characters... Wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of these pieces... The purses I like with Baseman's character are anywhere from 650-700 dollars. Check out the collection here.

The video had a very cool, ethereal, trippy vibe, I could dig it...

Monday Theme Song: Freakazoid.

Nubia Mejia 12:36:00 AM

Every Monday I like to start my week with a positive up-beat tune. Sometimes it's a regular 'ol song but most times, I like to dig into my childhood and pick a theme song from a show I enjoyed. It takes me back and lets me relive a specific moment in life... when there wasn't so much stress and issues. I...

Wasabi Art Makes Sushi More Fun To Eat By Tamashiro Jon.

Nubia Mejia 2:42:00 PM

Talk about Sushi Porn. While roaming through my instagram feed, I saw the good people over at Tokidoki featured a wasabi Bastardino character and it was freaking adorable! I was very impressed by the detail in the wasabi art, beautiful food art really. They linked the photo back to Tamashiro...
