Grant Gustin all suited up but not too flattering they say? I honestly love the suit. It’s retro, real and I’m sure the show has nothing to worry about. If you ask me, the suit makes for a gritty look. The only thing I would worry about for a new television superhero series is how well they will tell the storyline about the Flash and his episodic adventures. Oh, and how well the special effects will be when they come into play.

It’s like Fashion Week here at Retrenders!

But back to the topic at hand is H&M’s Ladies Spring Fashion 2014.
Being a sneaker addict is like getting hooked on drugs. I’ve been there, like cutting class just to wait in line for Jordan’s or showing off my Scottie Pipen’s on the playground (I did have a hyped pick-up game scoring lay-ups and 3’s – it must be the shoes). Taking the MUNI all over the city chasing down the coolest kicks. And this is before the Internet! Now you can grab book about sneakers from U-Dox International – Sneakers: The Complete Limited Editions Guide.

Ramen and a Half’s Jonelle Marie interviews pioneering cosplayer model – Yaya Han, at New York Comic-Con.
Cosplay Model – Yaya Han
Back then when the term “Cosplay” was unheard of – Yaya Han and very few alike, simply loved the art of creating costumes of super heroes, villains, and not to mention fantasy and science fiction characters in between. The art of what became Cosplay for them was simply how convincing, how imaginative, and how ornately detailed their costume design can be from make-up to inseam.

Well, if you are like me who always carries a backpack or man-bag around and use it for work and play, then you like a sturdy long lasting bag that’s reasonably priced and fashionable. For me, my sexy red Timbuk2 Messenger bag has lasted me over 8 years plus of the hustle and bustle city life, traveling, press conferences, moving and dodging people on public transportation and the weather. And now I’m ready to get another backpack! From the across the border, Toronto-based company VENQUE makes high quality bags from a new fabric material that was introduced in 2012 called “Quanta.”
