Through deep thought i found myself asking myself, what bad design and good design was. I referred to Michaelangelo and i remembered this quote The greatest artist has no conception which a single block of white marble does not potentially contain within its mass, but only a hand obedient to the mind can penetrate to this image.
I found myself thinking, the body is a tool, sort of a machine that controls the medium. Im a fn of benny gold. he does alot of sketchwork before he puts his designs onto tees or prints or wherever.
Today i bought a Margiela wallet. Okay, its high end and what, im falling for the finer things in life now. No disrespect to Streetwear.
Back to Design. The wallet is designed in a not everyday style. The leather reacts to heat, its black with shiny gold edges. You are probably thinking, so what it reacts to heat and changes color. Aint nobody gonna see that, well, I will and thats what makes me feel nice like any other artist or designer or fashion lover. I did not buy it because it reacts to heat. It was more like the name, no1 cannot agree, it was the establishment and the following of the designers philosophies that set the mind to fall in love with the design.
Mixed emotions right now!
Love
Veezy
P.s. just as i am writing this i will be putting my feet in a pair of vas chukka syndicates, when I no longer thirst and hunger for streetwear.
AHHHHHH

tut tut ..... i'd only go into 'Superior Fashi' if i as rich - no point in havinall hses nice fancy clothes if you are stll catching the bus!
I buy Superior stuff because its a treat and i do not see anything wrong with buying premium labels even if you catch the bus because at the end of the day each and every one of us should spoil ourselves. Premium brands are the closest thing to honest tailoring and fabric, Better than Bape ish!
hmmm, hey i just bought the wallet coz it was on sale and it was from £145 like any bargain hunter wud!
