For those looking somewhere to spend their hard-earned paychecks, the Stephen Sprouse inspired Louis Vuitton collection is seeing its way into retailer accounts. Items released include various small accessories in vibrant colors including a gym set complete with head band and towel.
It’s often been said that you can’t go wrong with green, and though I am not an XBox player, I would rock the hell out of these. Accented with patent leather and fiber optic writing [to shape the XBox logo], these Dunks are sleek and understated…during the day. What you don’t see is the battery and switch inside of the tongue, to control the settings of the logo; from strobe or constant. The toecap is done in a tiger camo, to accent the bold colors of the shoe.
Dear Editor:
We were dismayed to see the cover of the May 2009 issue of XXL Magazine, which features a photo of Rick Ross wearing a pair of sunglasses prominently featuring counterfeit Louis Vuitton trademarks. Because the photo has generated considerable confusion among your readers and Louis Vuitton customers among others, we feel it is important to clarify several points.
The first is that the sunglasses Mr. Ross is wearing were not made by Louis Vuitton, and in fact, are counterfeit. Louis Vuitton did not grant permission to Mr. Ross or to whoever did make the sunglasses to use our trademarks. The second is that no affiliation, sponsorship or association exists between Rick Ross or XXL and Louis Vuitton. The third is that counterfeiting is illegal.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to correct the confusion.
Sincerely,
Michael D. Pantalony, Esq.

Wow. Bryan “Baby” Williams really went all out for Lil’ Wayne’s 26th birthday. Not only did he give him a cool MILLION dollars (love that based on the pics, it looks like a good chunk of it is in Euros- just in case the value of the dollar takes another dip!), but it came delivered in a $4100 Louis Vuitton monogram Président Classeur briefcase!
Apparently, Baby never heard Miss Manners’ age old adage that cash gifts are tacky (love this little article from her on how they came to be.) I love this quote from Celebslam, where I found the pics, “For my 26th birthday, I got a sweater and a night out on the town* with my grandma.” (*Applebee’s)
The Study Ball is for all those procrastinator sadomasochist
types who don’t “work hard” (no Khaled) - it locks a 21 lb
ball and chain onto your leg for a set duration of time.
This could be worse than the leashes that parents put on
their kids. $115
Vans and Marc Jacob have made a very successful pairing in the past and of course this time around its no different. Available in 3 electric suede & corduroy colorways these shoes definitely do not disappoint. Fans of the Vans brand can already tell you that they are some of the most comfortable shoes in the world and to top it off the Marc
