WEAR THIS TONIGHT! (or today) @TEVA Flatform Universal #platformsandals to your next beach party! ORDER NOW

WEAR THIS TONIGHT...and during the day...and then the next day! 

TEVA FLATFORM UNIVERSALS

I was super excited when I got home from Stockholm to find a package from TEVA. Inside was my very own pair of Flatform Universal black sandals. The iconic "im going to sleep away camp" shoe choice for many kids of the 80's and 90's has finally made a return!

There is something so chic and adult when wearing TEVA ( pronounced Tay-Va) even if it does include a 1 1/2 platform. Simple straps make it always a perfect fit, the waterproof bottom allow for even walking in the rain or even at the beach, and the sleek simplicity of the black on black is just...so me.

This summer I am excited to re visit my youth, minus all the color tribal strap patterns, and grow UP with the Teva Flatform Universals. At only $50 at places like UrbanOutfitters its a classic worth splurging on. A sandal like this will last you this summer and many summers after. If you are lucky they might even last long enough for you to horde away for when your kids grow up and are into "Vintage 2015" fashion...seessh that'll be the day.

Product Description

The Flatform Universal takes our iconic Universal to new heights. Rest your foot on the 2 1/4" platform, it has hook and loop closures for a secure fit and Durabrasion Rubber®: sole for traction.

@theprintuplist readers #nationalfragranceday exclusive! Check out @WilliamsandMurray all natural perfume and get 50% off your order!

 Williams and Murray is a small New York luxury perfume company whose name is inspired by Williamsburg x Murray Hill. Like the name their signature scent 415 is a perfect mix of Rugged spicy Brooklyn and soft floral Upper East Side. Think hipster meets preppy. Their bottle background pattern is actually the negative space of the W&M together which I find to be so cool and pretty at the same time. The scent is soft, not too strong and perfect for spring weather. It smells like a mature all natural version of CKone, if that makes it appealing to you, my 16 year old self is loving it because it gives me high school flash backs of spritzing perfume near the lockers and dreaming of Kate Moss. Ahhh memories.

So you guys are super lucky, when I find a brand I love I want the world to know about them and try it out. The ladies at Williams and Murray want you to try it out too and for a limited time all my readers can order a bottle for 50% off with the gift code PRINTUP.

Happy joy joy to you!

WEAR THIS TONIGHT-Titty Hawk Jewelry by Laila K Lott! #rings #ootd #fashion @titty_hawk

There is one thing that I love more then a fucking amazing party...fucking amazing jewelry!
Laila K Lott is a hidden gem that makes some of the most next level designs in gold and silver. 
I tell all my friends when they are going out trying to meet someone that the key to success is having a conversation piece. Its something that allows that special someone to zoom in on you and have an excuse to talk to you, ask you about what something might mean, or better yet " where did you get that!" It can not be just any piece of jewels but almost the more mystic the better.

Here are a few pieces from Titty Hawk that I know will get that ball rollin', the free booze flowing and possibly a first date.



                      

This is a personal fav! This titty, eye, hand, money sign pyramid ring in silver on my pinky as I type. Its been a center of conversation at many events. People always want to know " What does it represent?!!" The obvious answer... sex,money,good looks, and high fives... DUH! errrr I mean it really it up for your own personal interpretation but id like to think its just channeling radness.





If the ring isn't your cup of tea allow me to recommend the same magical icon but in the form of a tassel earring, or how about a golden pierced boobie? All amazing options.

       

And if jewelry doesn't float your boat then there is always one of these shirts to seduce any crowd on the dance floor instead. And better yet if you think these designs are just a bit to next level for you Laila luckily takes custom orders. She has that magical power to make all your wishes come true.

Test her magic and check out TITTY HAWK

WEAR THIS TONIGHT: Night Blossom #NaturalPerfume and Handmade Solid Perfumes by @HiWildFlower

We are officially in Fall. Rooftop and pool parties, food trucks and beer kegs are days of the past. Its time to bundle up, get cozy and enjoy a good cocktail indoors. Its important to look good underneath the layers on top of layers we tend to need here in a normal NYC night outing. And if one is planning on getting a lil' sexy time or hot and sweaty on a dance floor you must never forget the key to any perfect night... your perfect scent!

Before the summer was over I was lucky enough find the enchanting all natural perfume NIGHT BLOSSOM by Hi Wildflower . Its evoking scent is strong,and smells of the spicy sweet earth in the forest after it has rained and the flowers are wet and being illuminated by moon light and I am just rolling around in the grass underneath the trees and...ehem... Get what I mean?? Its seduction in a bottle. Im in love.

This is going to be my key scent for going out this season. It still smells like summer but with enough spice to welcome Fall. Its natural and made with 100% pure essential oils making this a perfect excuse to buy and feel guilt free.

Night Blossom is a sensual, meditative and alluring combination of our favorite Indian grand flowers: Jasmine, Champaca and White Ginger Lily. These gorgeous blossoms linger with the deep, resonant base notes of Indonesian Sandalwood and Fossilized Amber from the Himalayas. In the tradition of attar making, jasmine and roses are steeped in Sandalwood to produce a stirring, grounding scent, with heady florals in its heart.

Head: Neroli / Rose Otto 

Heart: Jasmine Sambac / Jasmine Grandiflorum / White Ginger Lily / Moroccan Rose Absolute  

Base: Indian Sandalwood / Fossilized Amber Resin / Peru Balsam / Opopona

In this tradition, the wearer of Night Blossom will connect to their sensual, divine, animal and spirit nature.

Now after falling for Night Blossom, I decided to search into Hi WildFlower and see what other goodies they made. Their Perfume solids are a fantastic must have for any jetsetter or just to toss in a bag on a night out. No spill worries. The ornamented boxes was a plus, all handmade by artists in India, the bead work and mirrored accents was a true treat. A girl cant ever have enough shinny and glittery objects in her life. Its almost as intoxicating as the scent that it contains. 

Perfume solids are a lovely, private scent experience. Each gorgeous bead and mirror artisanal boxes is handmade by artisans in Rajasthan, India. You'll get 30g of solid perfume, composed of organic beeswax, organic jojoba oil , sweet almond oil and natural botanical fragrance. The boxes are made in the traditional Indian "lac" ware tradition, the boxes are constructed using a glue that is made from the resinous secretion of the lac insect. What I love about these particular beaded boxes is that the simplicity of the style - bead, mirror, metal - which s quickly being lost to glitter and rhinestone accents. Soon, these simple boxes will be a thing of the past!

Get to know K-Deez: Insider Interview by @SUPALAURA for @ThePrintupList

Get to know K-Deez: Insider Interview by @SUPALAURA for @ThePrintupList June,27th,2012

The first time I met K-Deez, we had an appointment at his hotel in NY to meet up and do a little interview. I believed I wasn't so much the target of his music, simply because I love hip hop when it's a little more hardcore , but went anyway.

The first few minutes, we were already cracking jokes, and that is good enough for me!

Chill, fresh and almost too clean, after all these stupid judgements I had in my head, I realized we had similar tastes in music and we talked like we always knew each other. When he told me his life story I was listening carefully, and realized age ain't really nothing but a number. And when he told me he never met his Dad I was speechless, but didn't show him that it saddened me a whole lot...

K-Deez came back to NY and brought me some new music, I was hooked! I can't wait for the world to hear "Rollin" and "Skinny Ni**a"! Catchy, fun and simply dope tracks that you will be able to enjoy pretty soon, when he drops his new project 10teneighty7 (10.10.87). In the meantime, you can download his previous album here! 22 Summers;

and watch the latest video off of it.

We met again recently and he took a few minutes to answer my questions and update me on his projects.

K-Deez is more confident than ever and got his eyes on the prize!

Keep up the good work K-Deez, hard work always pays off!

Get to know QUEST: Insider Interview by @SUPALAURA for @ThePrintupList

QUEST insider interview by SUPALAURA for THEPRINTUPLIST June 25, 2012

First time I saw Quest's video "Gambler" I believed that someone up there made one of my wishes come true!

A dope track with great lyrics on a crazy beat! I then decided to go on a quest (sorry, to easy) to meet with this amazing MC to know more about him! After I found the contact of his manager, he told me that Quest was actually performing the very next day in NY! I thought it was so meant to be. I grabbed my camera and went to SOB's to see what he's made of.

We ended up doing a very great interview before his performance! Such a great person to meet. Positive, enlightening, smart, real and kind. Introducing, Miami's own: Quest!

Quest will be opening for DMX July 6 in Florida + going on a tour in Cali! Make sure you check him out if you're in one of those cities!

In case you missed it: @KendrickLamar for @VEVO @SantosPartyHaus by @SUPALAURA

In case you missed it: Kendrick Lamar for VEVO at Santos Party House June 3, 2012 by SUPALAURA for THEPRINTUPLIST June 6, 2012

I've always like Kendrick's music. Like "it's cool" type of feeling. But the first time I saw him perform, it kinda changed from "it's cool" to "what is this dopeness going on stage right now?" type of feeling. His raw energy hit me and I really wasn't expect it at all. And I love when this happens, when artists have that presence so you can't look away, look at your phone or talk to the person next to you. He just caught all my attention and it felt very good.

Even though I had very much enjoyed that first show, I was still thinking "yeah he's dope" but that was it. After that, I went to many of his shows and the more I saw him perform, the more my interest was flourishing.

Up until the day I had to write two pages about him for a French magazine... While doing my researches, listening to every song more carefully, etc., I realized how his lyrics were meaningful to me and I was putting it into words why, without writing the obvious. It was like a "oh ok! wow" moment. Sine then, it's a wrap.

Kendrick was performing again in NY June 4, for a special Vevo event, and I was looking forward to see him perform again. And you would think it would be quieter, different or just not the same because it was a "corporate event", but hell no! It was classy, rugged and raw, full of energy and simply dope. I really enjoyed it! See for yourself.

THE ART OF RAP: RECAP

by SUPALAURA for THEPRINTUPLIST 6/5/12

ICE T blessed us with a private screening of his highly anticipated documentary film The Art Of Rap.

RECAP: Brisk Bodega x Star Wars w/ Just Blaze & DJ Soul

by C. Wall for ThePrintupList Posted on February 28, 2012

Last Thursday a select few of scenesters were able to get a look at some of the art contributed to Brisk x Star Wars: Episode One – The Phantom Menace campaign. I’m pretty sure by now you’ve seen the commercial with Darth Maul trying to battle Yoda and has a soda machine dropped on him. The artwork was done by artists Artek, Mark Dean Veca, Jasper Wong, Pose, Leo Eguiarte, Dual Forces, Eye One, and Tristan Eaton.

The event was held at The Cantina located by the Meatpacking District. Besides the line — which wasn’t all that bad, and you know I skipped it — it was pretty discreet.

More below.

Once inside we rushed to the open bar. The cocktails were all infused with Brisk Iced Tea flavors and vodka. In typical event-going fashion I took two at a time since I had to be at another event later that night. All the drinks were tasty. As much as I drink I’m surprised I’ve never stumbled upon these concoctions.

Of course great music was provided by DJ Soul, Just Blaze, NXNY. They played classic Mobb Deep to the newest crazy sounding dance music you hear nowadays. But as long as you can dance to it, it’s all good.

Done by Mark Dean Veca

The Details @ Midnight event had everything from a photo booth, an open bar stocked with patron, patron slushies & break dancers. Theophilus London jumped on stage around 11:30 and performed a half hour set.

If you missed it: Swizz Beat x Joe Jonas Perform at SOUNDS LIKE PAPER 2011

Swizz Beatz x Joe Jonas Perform At Sounds Like PAPER 2011

(Photos & Videos) By Charles Wall for The Printup List

So the other night Paper Magazine held their Sounds Like PAPER concert in the Williamsburgh section of Brooklyn at House of Vans and the venue was spacious needless to say. Guests were treated to free Coronas (in a can though) and Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. First thing I had to get was a beer of course, then came the Cherry Garcia (super hyped!). People were scattered everywhere, blunt smoke was in the air, empty cans and Ben & Jerry’s cups painted the faux-grassy knoll area which my crew and I where located, and eventually the porter-potty line became enormous.

Ok, let’s see some pics and videos….

For all my cyclists out there.

Guests were given the newest edition of Paper Magazine. Funny that Santigold was on the cover and suppose to perform that night, but didn’t.

Shot from the “grassy knoll”

Told you it was first thing in my hand. Many followed.

I fucked this all the way up. Only if they had Oatmeal Cookie Chunk! Regardless, it was delicious.

My lovely crew, minus 2 others.

Joe Jonas opened and graced the fans with 4 songs off his upcoming album Fast Life.

Of course he had to show fans that he’s all grown up by ditching the blazer.

Truthfully speaking, Joe Jonas held it down. The crowd was dancing and the stans were singing along whilst going ape-shit. I was even caught bopping during the performance.

Swizz Beats closed the show with a bunch of classic snippets from current and past work. For a artist that isn’t the best lyrically, he had the crowd going INSANE. If most artist did what Swizz did I guarantee all their shows would be the dopest. It felt like a club on steroids, times a million. He played hits On to the Next One, Ruff Ryders Anthem, Bring ‘Em Out, and current tracksReebok Back and Everyday (Coolin’) off his new album Haute Living

You have to admit, that Muhammad Ali shirt is too cold.

Reebok Back?

WhyHunger-Chapin Awards Dinner Review

NEW YORK - JUNE 21: Pete Seeger attends WhyHunger's 35th anniversary celebration at Gotham Hall on June 21, 2010 in New York City. (Photos by Katya Moorman)

On Monday night I had the privilege of singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" with Pete Seeger. I was attending the WhyHunger-Chapin Awards Dinner: a yearly celebration of those who give back in both music and life to help those in the greatest need. A legendary musician, singer, songwriter and passionate activist Pete Seeger was the recipient of the this year's WhyHunger Chapin Award. Through his music and life, Pete focuses the world’s attention on poverty, hunger, racism, the environment, waterways, war and peace. It was inspiring to see someone who has never given up and keeps on contributing to the world and performing at the age of 91.

Fellow recipients at the event also include Nick Ashford & Valerie Simpson, as well at Growing Home.

Growing Home is an organization that provides job training for homeless and low-income individuals in Chicago through a social enterprise business based on organic agriculture. Ashford and Simpson, 2010’s ASCAP-Harry Chapin Humanitarian Award recipients, are one of the most successful songwriting duos in the history of pop music and have earned 22 gold and platinum albums over the course of their career. In the tradition of WhyHunger cofounder Harry Chapin, the duo steeped themselves in humanitarian projects. They performed at Live Aid in 1985 and Nelson Mandela’s 70th birthday. Val is on the ASCAP Board of Directors and is a spokesperson for the Speaking of Woman’s Health organization. Nick serves on the Board for George Faison’s Firehouse Theatre. They regularly perform at charity events, such as Atlanta’s 24th Annual Mayor’s MASKED Ball; and in support of the United Negro College Fund.
