TIME PIECE: VOID WATCHES - $185

I didn't get to it yesterday, but it was the drop of the day, well yesterday. These are clean and bold. I like the simplicity of the metal casing, the simple digital reading and the leather band. My favorites are the gold with brown strap and the brushed silver with black strap.

Match Up

The main piece here is the Orisue Elliot Jacket, which is another piece that stood out from Orisue Fall 2 delivery. I like layering a crew underneath the jacket and the RVCA Romero is one of my favorite jean styles in the RVCA line because of it's comfortable slim fit. The DC Admirals dropped at pickyourshoes.com and it helps carry the red color detail through this match up. The finishing piece is the new Nixon Chronicle and although everyone is banging out the digital time pieces these days, sometimes a classic analog is the way to go. The oversize gasket crown with the stainless steel face makes this classic time piece modern.

55DSL Fall Winter 2009/10 Collection

Annie sent this over and from the looks of it, 55DSL step out of the box for Fall/Winter. These aren't the colors you would come to expect for this season, but then again with the 80's revival who would know. The group over at 55DSL even threw in some light washed vintage denim. Needless to say this collection is pure fun with their selection of colors and prints. Their lookbook reminds me of my good old days in college.

Included this Fall Winter is an exclusive 10.55 black series collection which will be unveiled in October, as well as a 10.55 printed jacket created by the designer TURBOKRAPFEN in celebration of the masked Italian DJ duo the BLOODY BEETROOTS, www.myspace.com/thebloodybeetroots.

PEACOAT: Orisue The Donovan Peacoat - $130

This is one of my favorite pieces I saw in the look book. What I appreciate from Orsiue is their detailing whether it be patches, embroidery, or brand badges. In this case the "For The Hungry" embroidery underneath the collar is nice hidden touch. The fit is good, not boxy at all and the length is just right.

Specs: The Donovan Peacoat is made from 60% wool, 40% polyester, and features a double breasted button-down front, a large collar with "FOR THE HUNGRY" embroidered on the inside, logo patches on both sleeves, two side pockets, and an inside pocket.

KICKS: DC ROB DYRDEK COLLECTION RD1 MIDS - $90

Last night's Fantasy Factory episode featured some footage of Rob's photoshoot for his new collection. Too bad they couldn't get the elephant for the anti-gravity chamber, but then again that would be a bit sketch.

His new RD1 Mids went up on DC's online shop. The black ones are dope with the bubblegum color DC "pill" soles.

10 DEEP Fall 2 @ Boundless NY

Get your hands on it! This is a strong set and we have our picks below. Dig the toggle details on the Paddington Plus. The Sticker Attack is hilarious. Until the End is my favorite graphic tee they have this delivery and the Deer Hunter Vest looks good on both sides.

ORISUE FALL 2

Here are some shots from the new Orisue Fall 2 Lookbook. There are some quality pieces with the great detailing you expect to see from the crew. Liking the peacoat a lot and nice use of suspenders in the styling.
