Sometimes life calls for a change. A new direction. When you have a fresh pair of new threads it fills you up with a sense of confidence and leaves you feeling savvy. THE BLEND is designed to arouse and inspire the magic forces at work, set ideas in motion, and get the juices flowing in what I like to call AESTHETIC STIMULATION. The term can be easily defined as the ‘personal branding’. Changing up your gear unlocks a different side of you, tapping into this beautiful way of thinking may turn a couple of heads and attract more personality to your surroundings.
I’ve got five ingredients, fresh and ready to stimulate your senses and pave the way for a cleaner and sleeker look. Charm and appeal can often be brought out when we feel our very best, and the seasons are destined to change. Here’s how to boost your confidence, image, and well… sex appeal.


Denim has a huge impact on the way we dress, and they range in different colors, sizes, and cuts. “The Cut” of the denim is the biggest asset of responsibility we can do in favor of ourselves when picking out an outfit. Think of it as your exterior skin, sometimes giving that skin a makeover changes the way others view it. Go ahead, fix up that barn!
Levi’s have just released their slimmest cut in years, while also are taking a greener stance by making their denim with less water usage than times recent. Introducing a new line labeled “Water<Less”, the eco-friendly jeans are manufactured using an average of 28 percent less water. While saving the planet you can also save a little in your wallet; these bad boys are coming in only at $80! This special denim above entitled “Ex-Girlfriend” is currently only available through select Levi’s Stores and OAK NYC in their special department A.OK. Grab these denim delights while they’re still fresh!


Shoes are meant for walking, but they do a lot of talking. And I’m talking about literally their tongues. Well, and a little more. Minimal is the way to go these days, so keep it clean and conservative.
Spring is almost back in full effect so what better way to prepare your feet by getting some new kicks! Sperry Topsiders are a great way to keep it casual and cool this new year. Whether you are planning a boating trip, a walk in the park, or just a local cruise through the streets Topsiders are a great way to pull off the classic image without looking dull, and while staying comfortable. They have a huge range in different colorways and come with many choice fabrics and material! They age very well, have a non-skid sole, and they are built to handle water. Both colorways above are specials currently at Sperry, my personal favorites are the Black on Black Leather (VERY RARE!) The range of price varies from $65-$95 not bad for a pair of shoes that could last you ages.

It always seems to be very difficult to find a bag that suits your needs while maintaining a clean look at the same time. What kind of bags you carry can often say much about you before you even speak. One thing for sure — it has to protect your goods, have plenty of space, and not be overbearing.
Julius has a great luxury bag if you want that soft supple lamb leather and a nice seamless finish, it’s a bit hefty coming in at almost $1400. Luckily, Blackbird Vintage has you covered with amazing bags that range in different sizes and prices to fit your budget, while keeping your hands empty and your shoulders light at the same time.

Jewelry has a tale all of it’s own. Most think that it’s not important or has very little to no value, but I know that’s not the case with you! Having the bases covered from head to toe is a coordination thing. Having that little extra flair around your neck, fingers, ears, or wrist changes up the game. It says “Hi, my name is _____.”, “Hello, look at me. I’m edgy, classy, sophisticated, and have a sense of style.”, but not having any may not draw any attention at all. Think of the odds and ends as conversational composition. It may bring that attractive boy or girl closer by look, a compliment, or well a full conversation. Another way to look at it is that that special someone may just want to grab onto your special thing while being a bit closer to you.
One of my personal all time favorites has to be Alex & Chloe who signature style can compliment anyone, and keeps it pretty original. The prices are great and so are the pieces. Think instant magnetism!

Online shopping is the final frontier. It’s about the closest thing we have in our day to day lives that makes every thing teleport before our own eyes like Star Trek! Whether you know what you want or desire a certain style, you’re bound to find something bold and creative through giving the world-wide-web a little search effort.
Currently, ASOS.COM is where anybody who is highly into to fashion or trying to develop an online presence into their style is definitely there. Looks and style range big here, and they have a way to fit anyone’s budget onto their pages. Check them out today you’ll be glad you browsed.
Hopefully these looks are inspiring and spark an idea of change. Maybe, it will add a bit of selectivism in your eye, an add-on upgrade to your self-conscious diet.
