Lipstick Rebels!

The Homie Jaz Drop here New Line Lipstick Rebels this morning at 12 am with some very dope pieces for the ladies! Ladies its Definitely something worth having in your wardrobe and be the first to be wearing the up & coming designer that is "Notorious" JAZ! (sidenote: while typing this notorious by Biggie came on my Pandora lol how Ironic) but here is what Lipstick Rebels is about straight out the mouth of JAz:

Lipstick Rebels is a clothing line based upon the bold and the beautiful. Sexy, colorful, fun is what you will find. This collection is not for the average girl. I made this clothing line thinking of the girls who are NOT afraid of being themselves or doing anything any boy could do but better!! Daring individuals who are not afraid to play with fashion, turn heads when walking down the street and create controversy!! A Lipstick Rebel is a chick with balls!! I'm excited to launch the line and even more excited to make it available WORLDWIDE. Thank you so much to everyone who supports me!! and a special thanks to the ones who doubt me, because its you ALL that feed me the negativity which I turn into ENERGY to get wiser, better, and of course BOLDER.
-xo Jazmin (owner and designer of Lipstick Rebels)

Remembering Jonas of LRG

Early last week one of the most influential people in my life when it come to street-wear pasted away. To all it was a sad and unexpected story , but to me i actually felt like i lost something, and for him to be a person i never met, alot of people really couldnt understand why.
In a way I related to Jonas. His back story on how he started LRG with a little bit of nothing and an idea at a young age and turned it into the foremost succesful streetwear brand created the blueprint to the success that i would want for my clothing line. The way he merged the markets of urbanwear & streetwear made his Line hard not to accept. And even his image in the public was a statement. He didn't conform to be someone else, he was still the same Jonas with 10 thousands as he was wit 10 million, maybe a little more flasher lol. But He didnt try to fit in anywhere he stayed true to what he believed in. The way he formed LRG from just a popular clothing line into its own culture was unmatched. If LRG name was behind it you better believe it was something Jonas believed in, be it season Collections, Print Ads, even Artist mixtapes it promoted. By sticking to this added to the longevity of his line instead of the short lived "do what makes money" mindsets of alot of clothing lines these days. Jonas was a pioneer, A mentor, a streetwear idol.
His untimely death hit me quite hard but it also motivated me to become better and exceed the accomplishments of my predecessors.
So with that said look out for the return of Baked Goods, and at evey chance I get I will thank and honor Jonas Bevacqua for the gigantic influence he had on my life as well as my partner's life
R.I.P JONAS. long Live LRG

Introducing: The TRENDSPOTTER

Collabing with her great insight on the current fashion scene, as well as her eloquent way with words we bring you the TRENDSPOTTER !!!! Streaming you the newest fashion buzz, keeping you current and intune with the fashion of the world! So with no futher introduction here is the 1st Entry! ENJOY!

Battle of the Wrist Bands

It is widely rumored that the era of the classic wrist watch has come and gone…Is it safe to say that
colorful more varied wristwatches, like the G-Shock, have over shadowed the vintage leather banded
timepieces???...that is INDEED false! C’mon now, don’t knock the ol folks style! Lately the Vintage look
that a classic watch offers is widely sought after.

The word “classic” tell you everything that you need to know about the appeal of these types of
wristwatches…they are timeless! And timeless is a great quality to consider when making such a
committed investment. This piece will NEVER go out of style and can be worn with almost (I said
ALMOST) anything. If you’re a dude try it out with a casual look to add some boldness. If you’re a lady
try sporting the watch with a more feminine look. By doing this you will balance the overall look out
with a chunky, masculine piece.

A vintage watch can be quite pricey, but the originality and high quality of the piece makes it a great
buy. You will have something that is unique to you and your personality. Quite often vintage watches
are designed to look simple and effortless with a rustic undertone. Fossil brand makes some pretty kick-
ass vintage inspired watches. These watches are not authentic vintage, but they are made to give you
that same feel and look. I found a pretty authentic looking one on the site. Fossil actually offers an entire
collection of “Vintaged Bronze Watches”. Check them out at www.Fossil.com .

Vintage inspired watches are just as good as the real McCoy! Plus who doesn’t need to keep track of
time?! This accessory is fashionable and functional. A vintage watch is the perfect way to incorporate
some of your own character to any look!

Air Jordan VII “Premio” Bin 23 Collection

I normally dont do post like this that you probably be able to find anywhere but....... THese have to be some of the Hottest Jays set to release in a long time!!!
Even though it will have a limited release im definitely gonna make it my business to cop these!

Jordan brand are set to release this colorway of the Air Jordan VII, adding to their on-going Premio Bin 23 Collection. The striking African tribal design makes reference to the early 90’s, a time not only when the designs were popular, but when the AJ VII was first released. Just as previous releases in the same collection, each shoe will be individually numbered and will come with a branded shoe tree to ensure that the shoe retains its shape. Expect a release soon from select retailers including Limited Edt Vault.

Who doesn't enjoy a good T-Shirt????

Lately comfortability has been winning the on going battle against style. But inevitably they both win with a stylish tee right??? exactly! So all i rock is tees! Band Tees, Graphic tees, stripe tees, no- tees, all types of Tees!!! My closest is a TEE Party!!! (pun intended lol) but here are just a few of the tees i think are pretty random and cool and possibly get an invite to the Tee party (yeah i know how to over extend a joke. corny lol)

Idk If this is for The homies or the Ladies.....

Found these cool artistic high fashion photos and thought these are really hot pics. But thought again who would get off more a guy or a girl???? I've seen second hand how handbags can effect a womens panties lol.... so i think this one is for the handbag loving ladies.
enjoy-

Bake's Favs: Flaunt Magazine

Yesterday while i was In Books-A-Million I seen the dopest Cover for a magazine I have ever seen! So I had To pick it up! And It turned out to be Flaunt Magazine! I have seen the magazines previous issue but never really explored it thinking it was just another high Fashion Magazine. But I was wrong! This magazine fuses high fashion with street fashion into art, film, music, and any other aspect of our culture, its insane! I love this magazine. But the cover was a slide over of a MCM bag that actually had handles and inside a pic replica of the inside of the bag, pure dope. Or should i say STRAIGHT DROP. lol
Here are a few pics i took with my iPhone:


And here is the actual Cover underneath the Bag.

And Here is part of the Featured Interview. I like Kristen Stewart.
