POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Today marks a year into my 30s but not only that this the official introduction to something I’ve been imagining since I was a teenager and just never acted on it.

Anyway for the first project I wanted it to have a message that really means something to me and continues to push me forward as the years go on. “Leave Your Hometown” is a message to encourage everyone to expand their horizons past where they grew up through travel. Even if you go back home, just experience something outside of what you grew up around; different air, dialects, styles, etc.

This tee is upcycled with each one that I’ve created thus far starting off as a white tee. I dye the tee, cut into three pieces and sew it back together for a deconstructed feel. After the tee is reconstructed I make the message out of other scrap fabric and sew it down to make it resemble a ransom note. One will be $150 (the black letter version) & the other will be $125 (the colorful version). I’m open to doing other colors as well.

Thank you to my brotha @adariadaisuan for helping with the creative direction of this first project! 🫂

My first menswear ensemble that I completed last semester. The end use is business to casual.

The vest opens/closes at the side with magnets, the shirt has a hidden button packet at center front with a band collar and half sleeve, & the pants have a regular zipper fly, side seam pockets, back pockets, and bands that overlap around the knees.

Shoutout to my homie @owimark for killing it with the modeling! 📷: @12shortyvball

So for this project we had to pick lines from a poem, song, story, etc. The official title is a Expressive type booklet. Anyway I chose to do the song Kicks x @wale (it's way old), so I chose 8 of the different pairs of sneakers he mentions in the song and created each shoe using the hook, bridge, and outro w/ some illustration mixed in with the lyrics. I'm not great with this video thing so bare with me. #graphicdesign #igsneakercommunity #wale #airjordan #nikesb #delasoul #abathingape #bapesta #RayGuns #parra #patta #airmax #Vans #tiffany #dunk #diamondsupplyco #nike #foamposite by @youfly_iflew

I wanted to make this post all about gratitude. So, I pulled together all my favorite things that I was able to obtain this year; my new car, some kicks (of course), & this beautiful jacket!

This last half of 2025 has been an interesting one to say the least with more challenges than a lil bit but thru it all God kept me, used others to bless me, and even used me to blessed others despite things getting tight financially.

Thank you to anybody who blessed me with a piece, a laugh, advice, food, time, etc! The blessings will be even greater next year!

Enjoy these photos by the incredibly talented @adariadaisuan ! 🤌🏾🤌🏾 by @youfly_iflew
