ALL GONE 2011 book signing


the a ALL GONE book signing 2011 @ 5pm @Foot Patrol was an oppurtunity not to be missed.
As i eagerly waited for an hour in the queue in the freezing cold i could just not wait to get my hands on one of these babies
All Gone 20011 by Michael Dupuoy aka LaMJC; is a sort of bible...a dictionary...no *scratches head* basically it is a tribute to street culture and features the best of street cult 2011 that are now ALL GONE!

i purchased the black leopard skin edition rrp£60 one of 600 books or even more so, one of the 25books available at the book signing, and i managed to get the last black one muahahaha! *coughs* there was also yellow leopard skin available in 800 copies rrp£55.

Yep... In this time of economic depression, the price tag burnt a deep hole in my pocket, but I do not feel empty at all ^_^,and that's not because of the tres cool cupcakes that were provided but because I have gained such great understanding of how the street cult has revolutionised within the year. The dramatic downfall in the economy did not stop us when it came to fashion!

The book is great quality and has a nice finish. It features all sorts of street cult 'Most Wanted' items such as tables to trainers.

I would have to say that by far, the item of the year for me of 2011 would most undoubtedly be the Nike Mag Marty McFly 2015 shoes. Purely because of the irony behind a childhood memory becoming a reality "Back to the future", the limited amount of shoes managed to cough up a ridiculous $9.4million for eager bidders.

Kanye West, Kid Cudi and Tinie Tempah are some of the few who managed to cop a pair. Kid cudi was greedy enough to get 4 pairs of the 1500 available through auction via eBay.

The ALL GONE 2011 is a treasure and a lesson within itself. Work with what u got, chase what u want and when u finally have it, u better make sure u work it!

Peace, love and work it!
