Nike Jordan Brand Air Jordan Retro High.

High in the Air.

Sneaker Monday brings you a fresh sneak every week. This time around it's one of Nike's latest Jordan productions. Classic and clean in it's white and red colors.

This is a clean sneak with a classic design. It's no wonder that Nike choose to release a lot of different Jordan's on a regular basis. The question they should ask them self is if this is going to flood the market. With to many sneaks in this line it will get harder and harder to keep it exclusive. And Nike is normally good at this. They only sell certain sneakers in certain stores. But when the shoes themselves start to look similar that doesn't matter anymore.

Either way, a clean white Hi-top is like the Jordan here a must at the moment.

Black Tie.

Tie Yourself Up.

For those who have missed the last couple of Fridays here at The Best Stuff I See I just want to say. Get a white shirt and the cuff links to match. Then go and get yourself a black tie.

As bin said the combo of a white shirt, cuff links and a black tie is something that everybody should have in there closet. Not only is it required for occasions like weddings, funerals and baptisms but also when playing reservoir dogs. This in more fun if you get a bunch of guys together and everybody tries to actually stay in character. And if you get a black hat it's not gonna be hard to play blues brother.

In those games the shirt will be buttoned to the top button and the tie will be brought up high. This gives a very strict look. You don't have to have it like that if you're going to the club later on tonight like I am. Having the tie a bit relaxed and the top button unbuttoned gives a little more of a casual look.

And as the party goes on the tie works like a measurement on how drunk and how much fun you're having. If you get back home without your tie that normally means that you've had a pretty good night. At least that's what it always meant for me... ;)

Seize the moment and I will be back on Monday for more sneakers. You stay classy Berlin!

G Shock White.

Shock of White.

Time keeps on ticking no matter what we say or do. Still it moves in its own way. A day can move fast or slow even if it has the exact same amount of hours. And we have all broken down time to small units that can be easily counted and understood. And knowing is understanding so it's always important to know what time it is.

Casio brings up another classic with the G-Shock. The original black version has never really bin spot one. It has lacked something and felt plasticy in the wrong way. But that all went away with the white one. It's clean and it very easy to match with. Just wear something white and your there. And for the time being it's right on.

Don't forget to live in the moment, the time is now. ;)

Jeanette Harper

Put Me In Your Pocket.

The Soul Train goes on. This week I wanted to bring some music so here is Jeanette Harper with her sweet little song Put me in your pocket.

There doesn't seem to be much info on Miss Harper and there doesn't seem to exist many more songs than this one. But all the same it's better to have released one song that none at all. One can only speculate what happen.

Sometimes I wish that I could be shrunken down so that I was no bigger than cigarette pack. How would anyone be able to fit in a pocket otherwise? Just think of the possibilities. A pair of headphones would be the coolest stereo, a cherry would be the size of a watermelon and a gram of "whatnot" would keep you going for weeks. ;)

Also it would solve pretty much all of the energy problem on earth. So scientist people out there - Get Cracking!

Edie Sedgwick.

The Superstar.

Edie Sedgwick was one of the first Superstars. It seems as if she herself was the show and that no one could keep up with her. Today she is a Icon of fashion and style.

But how did she become a superstar? It must have bin the way she was that made her into the icon. Being capable of charm and simply giving of that air of fame and fortune without maybe even having it. I think this is what made her into the style-icon that she is.

And if she could do it then what stops anyone else from doing it? I guess what stops most people are themselves. A mental block that was given to us as children. Something that holds us back from socializing with who and what we want. As a child we were never allowed to talk to people we didn't know. Every unknown person became something scary. We were to behave and reform to our parents will. In that we were stopped from becoming what we really are.

I say -Try to break free from the negative things that are in our minds. We can all be superstars. We can all get what we want.

Adidas Originals Top Ten Hi part 2

Sweet White and Blue Baby!

It's here, Sneaker Monday! Time to take a look at what is going on in the Sneaker world. What's new or what is simple sweet.

After looking around a while I realized that there is not that much happening in the world of sneaks at the moment. So why not bring something up that's bin around for a bit but is really clean. The Adidas Top Ten Hi blue on white is a very nice sneak. I have seen them out in the stores this summer, and I always stop for a second and re-think my finances. Is there room in the budget for them? This summer that answer has bin no. But the more often I walk by a pair that answer is more likely to change.

The Top Ten Hi series brings that cleanliness that I expect from Adidas. And the colors on this pair is going to be so easy to match with. The white goes with your tee or shirt and the blue will always fit to your jeans.

I wish I had this pair this weekend when I was playing in the playground that is Berlin. They would have gone perfectly with my white shirt with thin blue lines and my bluer than blue jeans. But one can't have it all... Or can I? ;)

Dice cuff links.

Player got Style.

Last week I told you about the cleanliness of a white shirt. I also mentioned that if want to run in the big league you need to have a pair of cuff links instead of normal buttons. And here we have them, the players choice.

Not only is the color combo on these guys very clean, the shape and the feeling that goes with a dice is close to unbeatable. The dice is something that gives ideas about Vegas and just risking it all on one roll. Perfect for the one who likes playing games. And who doesn't like a good game?

Cuff links are details. And in my mind true style is something that lays in such details. The fact that what you carry is not a coincidence but a active choice. And with that said, make some choices and go out there in the jungle and show them that you got style.

After all it's Friday :)

The Sun is still Shining

I wear Sun glasses at night.

Sun glasses is not a new thing, it's bin around for a while, the chines had them in the 12th century. The Inuits also had shades but they didn't using glass on there's but instead they had narrow slits to make less light hit the eyes. Wonder if they also use there sun glasses as a fashion accessory.

But which pair should one choose? There is a lot of different ones to pick from. My favorites has always bin the aviator shades. Not only because you can combine them with almost any set of clothes but also the fact that they give you that inconspicuous edge. I see you but you can't really see me.

But I would say -Why stop at one pair?, don't buy brand names that cost to much. Buy a couple of different pairs in different colors to match the stuff your wearing that day. And who really cares if you don't have designer labels on your sun glasses. I don't and you shouldn't. Cheap sun glasses might not last very long but why should they? Next year the fashion is different anyway.

Should I write about something specific? Then write a e-mail or find me on twitter under the name thebeststuffic and don't forget to push the digg button.

Soul Music

Music for the Soul.

Soul music has a way of bringing true happiness. There's a joy there that is really hard to describe. Something that makes you want to smile and to move your feet. I don't know how many times I have started to dance in a public space to Jackie Wilson's I get the sweetest feeling, to Nothing but a heartache by the Flirtations or to Curtis Mayfield's timeless classic Move On Up.

The best way to listen to Soul is together with a lot of people, so if you haven't bin to a good Soul club you have truly missed something. The pure joy that can be seen out on that dance floor should make even the most evil person light up.

What you should do is to get a hold of a couple of good Soul songs and listen to them two, three times and then you always have something to chase the blues away :)

Nintendo Clock

Game Clock.

What time is it? Check the game and you will know. When getting your living quaters in order one detail that should not be overlooked is the time. In other words clocks.

And there is alot of cool ones out there. And that's what makes it so much fun. You can make a clock out of pretty much anything. Like here a NES game. But don't let your imagination end there. The favorite cd that broke can be a clock. The weird LP record that you can't even listen to can be a sweet clock. And then there's all the strange and wonderful clocks that people have already made. Check the design stores for new ones or go to the fleemarket and buy some old junk that you can turn into a one-of-a-kind.

And who doesn't like a original clock? And if you made it yourself then you're gona get a lot of credit for it. If you didn't know it already, here it is one more time. Everybody loves an artist.

So go out there and be somebody!

Adidas Originals Top Ten HI

Blue and White Baby!

Here we have a very clean sneak. Two colors, classic Adidas blue and white that's whiter than snow. This is the type of sneak I would like to see more of on the streets. And it's cleanliness will surely turn some heads. Those heads might be sneaker freak heads but that still counts. Off course not as much as other peoples heads, but still.

Match these bad boys with blue jeans and a white tee and your set for the last summer days. If you really want to make it clean then have blue details on the tee and wear a NY Yankee's cap. I think you know where I'm going with this. And the same goes for the lady's but you should have some short jeans shorts and over all just show some more skin. ;)

There's so many sneaks but so little time...

White Shirt.

Blazing White.

Buttoning a shirt is a special feeling. Buttoning a nice shirt is even better, especially when you have a shirt that require cuff links. But besides the feeling of putting it on it's all about style. I don't think it's possible to NOT look good in a nice white shirt. Okay, maybe if the person in question is ugly as f#ck (but then nothing is going to help). My point is that it's hard to go wrong with a white shirt.

And if you think that just a white shirt is not enough to hit the club with then simply put on a black tie. I have noticed that not to many people wear this combo when going out. Most people might wear a colored shirt or a t-shirt when going out. But just the white shirt and the black tie combined with your other "normal" clothes will make you stand out. It's strange really, because a white shirt and a black tie is one of the most classic things to wear.

So when in doubt, white shirt.

Have a great weekend and I we will see each other on Sneaker Monday.

Stockholm

Back from Stockholm.

This town has it all. Cultur, food, sports, water, beautiful building, great partying and wonderful people. This is the feeling you get when you go to Stockholm in summer. In winter there is a diffrent feeling that strikes you.

One thing I noticed is that there is alot of beautiful women in this the capital of Sweden. And I'm not the first one to notice this phenomenon. Many people have told me this before. But this time it really became obvious to me. Ladys everywhere all wearing very short shorts. This might be the reason why many big bands start or end there tour in Stockholm. Well, at least bands made up by men tend do this.

There is also a club in Stockholm that only has open during the summer. It's called Trädgården which means the garden. It's like a playground for young people a bit older than 20. This year they where located under one of the big bridges. The tall bridge made a very nice space and the people where cool, nice and not to stuck up which can be the case in the more fancy places. Simple said, a very nice place. And it didn't hurt that you can play ping-pong or Supermario Brothers on NES.

So if you ever question where to go on vacation. Just go to Stockholm. But do it in summer.
