I heart the Bumble Bar.
Yummy, organic, vegan, ethically sourced, gluten-free energy bars with fantastic packaging. Created by Elizabeth Ward + her partner Glenn Ward. Made in Washington. The company works on the People, Profit, Planet concept: Employees are paid a living wage + work in a good environment, positive relationships are built with suppliers+customers, the ingredients are bought directly from farmer owned co-ops benefits communities from Indonesia, Turkey, Nicaragua, Canada, and Honduras. To reduce their waste output: they send underweight bars as samples instead of throwing them out or to charity events. They use: eco-friendly paper products, recycled shipping boxes + packing materials etc. Rad company.
Studded Louboutins
Up until recently I was never a fan of studs - I found them too harsh and emo-goth looking for my style. However, recently I've found of a new love of mixing studded items with classic items to make an outfit that bit edgy. I think these Louboutin flats are amazing - they could definitely do some damage!
Wristful of Jewels
I use to believe that jewellery was best worn in sets however of late I've become a fan of wearings lots of different pieces that don't necessary match but complement each other.
YSL Turquoise Oval Ring
I have been admiring this YSL ring for some time now and wish I would have snapped one up before they sold out. They remind me of pirate-like treasures or coral. I'm hoping to find something similar in a vintage store or perhaps at a market. I think the Chloe boots look great with the white blouse in the second pic too - incredibly stylish yet casual.
Single Black Lee Male
I'm not too sure what to make of this Courtney Lee character. Last year, with the Magic, she seemed like a nice lady who was down to play some tough defense and maybe make a three-pointer or miss an alley-oop layup on occasion.
But this year, there is something different. For instance, now she plays with the New Jersey Nets. That's not the difference I was talking about, necessarily. Check this out.
I know what you're thinking. No, that isn't Kenyon Martin from 2000 to 2004. It's just a case of one human (Courtney Lee) trying to be another human (Kenyon Martin) who was trying to be another human (Method Man). A real Kirk Lazarus situation.
Feels like an identity crisis starring John Cusack and Ray Liotta. Last season, peeps were like, "check out Courtney Lee, he's pretty legit." And he was sorta legit. He was a down-to-earth tucked-in shirt bro with a lady's name.
Now he is all headbandy and goateed, and I'm kinda thinking maybe he wants to be an enforcer like Kenyon Martin. Or maybe he wants to shoot bad jumpshots like Kenyon Martin. It's possible he wants to reinvent himself as a good defender who thinks he's an elite defender like Kenyon Martin. Maybe he just likes holding backboards like Kenyon Martin.
That's all well and good. Maybe he'll be the number one draft pick some time. I don't know. But I do know that there is one thing that I just can't accept from Courtney Lee, and that is a comically bad tattoo of a rapper's lips on his neck.
Be careful, Courtney Lee.
