These limited edition Ray-Ban Wayfarers have just popped up, with only 100 pairs available in the USA. Made of 100% Zyl with real silver accents on the temple hinges, they make great protection for springtime festivities — in fact, they’d be perfect Coachella glasses.

Finally, a good use of Kanye's words
As my friend, Alexi Lawless, who sent this to us said, “Maybe you dont love the folks in the remix — but its a fuckin well done song.” Amen! For commercial dance music, it doesn’t get any better than this. Culled from available Youtube interviews (Jay-Z, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Kanye West, Drake, & Lil Wayne), Boston […]
