Fresh Gear Friday's: Scarves Betch by DJ Phil

Hello hello TMT fans! This is Dj. Phil with the second installment of fresh gear Fridays! This week’s spotlight is being shone on another hot trend in hip hop, scarves. Rockin’ a scarf easily adds a bit of flair and panache to any outfit. Hip hop icons such as Pharrell Williams, Lupe Fiasco, and of course Kanye West have been known to throw a scarf into an outfit and look rather dapper in doing so. Shiiiiieeet it can turn a jeans and t-shirt look into a fly ass get-up! However, like last weeks post, this isn’t a look that just anyone can wear. You gotta have swag to “rock the rag” because otherwise you’ll not only feel uncomfortable, but you’ll give off an air of discomfort. A nice pair of shades helps too lol.







I included a few sites where you can go out and cop some scarves for yourselves.

Oh yeah, don’t forget people, this look isn’t limited to scarves only, it still works with bandanas. For example, today I rocked a lime green bandana with a red polo, black jeans, my trademark aviators,a black star bracelet (got it at claires, man up), and some raw red black grey and white chucks lol. Needless to say, I’m a fly ass nigga ;] . This is Dj. Phil over and out!

Fresh Gear Friday's: Shutter Shades!!!

Sup folks, this is TMT’s new blood Dj. Phil here hittin you up with the latest styles and trends in hip hop. Today I wanna enlighten you all on the latest craze, shutter shades! Made notoriously famous since Kanye West’s Stronger video, shutter shades have been in high demand by Kanye fans and seriously, who can blame them?!?

Making their debut back in ’87, these shades were in an old movie that no one liked called Summer School. There are also many rumored sightings of shutter shades in 85 in Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon. But anyways…shutter shades come in many different colors, forms, and sizes. There are the original glow in the dark horizontal shades that Kanye himself sported, diagonal, and there are a few models that actually come with lenses. These puppies range in price from $5 to about $30 and maybe higher. But I must warn you though, these shades aren’t for everyone!

So far only die hard Kanye fans, super fly people (such as myself) and posers (who don’t deserve the air they breathe) have been able to rock these shades. So as soon as you get a pair, quickly distinguish your self from the latter and sport those bad boys with pride! This is Dj. Phil, over and out!
