Today I have a few errands to run and then a lot of prep work for JPSKILLZ 2015!  So I’m definitely Sporty and I’m showing you the best Wireless Bluetooth Headphones on the planet!  Because these are what I rock throughout my day!  From the office to the gym to the crib!  “TO THE WINDOOOOOOOOOW TO THE WALL!!!”  LOL  No?  Okay.  Let’s get started.

You know it all starts with the shoes.  You know it’s gotta’ be Zerogrands for now.  LoL  Rockin’ my American Apparel thermal underneath to create a nice, warm base layer!  It also gives the Button Up a less refined look.  Very Manish.  (Z $278) (T $30)

Not rockin’ any of my Shawl sweaters today so I’m using my scarf to keep my esophacus…esofucus…esoff…MY THROAT, warm.  Throw the Blazer over the top & you create a nice little piece of much needed refinement to an otherwise laid back Fit.  You know my Mossimo Blazer from Target well by now.  $70

JPSKILLZ Style Tip of the Day!

Posted on by JPSKILLZ

Today’s Tip will be a little different. It’s just about HAIR! Negro Hair actually so sorry to my Caucasian brethren, but this one’s not for you…that is unless you are one of the rare Caucasian men who Styles Negro hair…in that case, it is for you, but I digress! LoL Today’s post is about the NEW Sponge Method that has swept the nation! The Lore states, that with only a sponge and your God given arms, wrists, & hands one can create twists in MINUTES! This is traditionally a tedious process, but this method is said to make it easy. So here’s what you need:

IMG_20141223_111124_edit

1. A SPONGE! BAM! That’s it! LoL A $2 Pack from Dollar General!

IMG_20141223_111407_edit

2. Just take the sponge and move it in a circular motion (clockwise), very gently, around your hair! And…

IMG_20141223_110252_edit

TAH DAAAH! DONE! This literally took me 5 minutos so it definitely works! No need to pay $30 for Spirits & a fancy sponge! LoL We’ll see how this looks paired with a wardrobe next post. Until then, happy Sponging! #Fin.

Well I still haven’t found me glasses.  I think my mom may have stole them, because she hates em’.  LoL  But anywho, it’s the Monday before CHRISTmas and I’m going CHRISTmas caroling!  ….  Ok, I’m not going CHRISTmas caroling, but I am going shopping, same difference, just not quite as peaceful.  I figure I’d add a bit of pazazz to my fit today so I’m rockin’ a tweed suit.  This is definitely a suit for the modern man, the young business professional, the young creative if you will.  The Pants are from the GAP ($40) and the Blazer is from Target by Mossimo ($60). See, it doesn’t take a lot of money to look like money 😉  The 2 pieces aren’t even an exact match, but once again, REMEMBER:  “It’s not about MATCHING it’s about BALANCE!”  It’s all about fooling the eye.  Underneath I’m rockin’ an American Apparel Henley ($30) and my Merona Zip-Up Cardigan ($25) from Target.  And of course you know the Zerogrands are doing the driving.  WELP!  That does it for me.  Time to go deck the MALLS with balls of folly, fa la la la la, luh la la laaaaa…. #FIN.

So you may REMEMBER the majority of this fit?  Well I found a nice little change up!  I was experimenting with my clothes as I often do in the morning and found this great combo!  I just added my BR Vest over my Blazer and it created this Super look!  Looks like something straight out of Tokyo!  Love it!  Cheers.

I added a my H&M Henley’s and tossed my Merona Vest over them and got an entirely different look!  I told you before, the best part about my BR Camo jeans is that they change according to what you wear with them.  You know, just like camouflage should!  I don’t remember the prices on the Henley’s because it’s been years, but my vest cost $25!  Good ol’ Target.

Top it off with my Express Top Coat and I’m out the door!
