A night At the Movies: The Crazies


So last night instead of hitting the Club we decided to just get a couple of drinks and catch the 11:30 Opening viewing of the Crazies. The Crazies stars Timothy Olyphant (Hitman) Radha Mitchell (Silent Hill) and Danielle Panabaker (Friday the 13th). Seeing as though I had no expectations for the movie (I rarely have expectations for any scary movies) I really did enjoy it. I feel that it took a different approach to the seemingly played scary and suspenseful movies that have recently been released. I'd definently suggest taking a night and going to check it out.

The Sniffles: Do you feel the "Heat"



While doing some Valentine's Day shopping (Not for myslef sigh*... I digress) for one of my closest friends mate we found ourselves in the Macy's Frangrance sections trying out all the latest scents. Of course my body was used as the testing subject, I swear by time we left every section of my body smelled of a different Scent from Rocawear to Jean Paul Guaittier (my personal fav). In these economic hard times I have found myself not attending the mall frequently other than special occasions such as birthdays and holidays. I hadn't had the opportunity to take a sniff of the newest endeavor from Beyonce, the Love of my life. She looks great in the Ad and the Smell is nothing less than the perfect blend of Sweet and Spice just like the Queen herself.

Ladies this is a must buy, what guy doesn't want to reminded of Beyonce when your scent walks in the room...

Must See: Alice in Wonderland in 3-D


From Walt Disney Pictures and visionary director Tim Burton comes an epic 3D fantasy adventure ALICE IN WONDERLAND, a magical and imaginative twist on some of the most beloved stories of all time. JOHNNY DEPP stars as the Mad Hatter and MIA WASIKOWSKA as 19-year-old Alice, who returns to the whimsical world she first encountered as a young girl, reuniting with her childhood friends. Who didn't grow up loving this movie!? I am uber-excited to see this movie, I'm even beginning to think how to make an event out of it. Long Table Tea Party before perhaps??? ...hmmm regardless its definitely stamped a must see!

ABDC Fav: Static Noyze

Sometimes I honestly believe that God may have been giving us a break when he gave us DVR. MTV's America's Best Dance Crew Static Noyze really catches my attention. Something about them screams VCU to me...Not to mention the fact that I love the song "Whatcha Say" by Jason Derulo. I really think they are a crew to watch and will continue to produce an creative and artistic expression of Dance. You can catch ABDC Thursday nights on MTV.

Must See TV: Gaga Performs on VH1 this Friday!


Catch Gaga's performance from the 2009 VFest this Friday 2/26 at 11:00pm on VH1... I know this is an old performance but its always good to see Miss Gaga do her thing...

Someone Say Sushi!?...


I enjoy taking time away from #thisjobofmines to enjoy good food with good friends. Sushi with my Sexy Boricua Faith always promises good laughs and great conversation. She is truly one of those people that makes your life worth living...

Martini and A Movie?.... Yes, Please!


Richmond was so excited when we learned we'd be receiving a movie theatre downtown. We were even more excited to learn that you'd be able to purchase wine and malt beverages. All was fine with the world until we all realized that to enjoy a drink and movie you'd have to arrive 30 Mins before your movie because drinks were not allowed in the theatre. #lame

Luckily, Richmond is taking another stab at the idea by bringing us the Cine'Bistro. A truly innovative dining and movie experience. The Cine'Bistro offers anyone who has a passion for movies and a palate for great food an environment unlike anything they have ever experienced before. Located in Stoney Point Fashion Park the CB will feature an upscale, yet inviting and comfortable atmosphere in which to dine while enjoying a major motion picture.

The CB is slated for a 2010 Opening, Let's hope its finish in time to enjoy Cosmos with Carrie B and Gang for the SATC2 release this summer!

This is Me.... Then.





So.... I've had this Blog ready to launch for a couple of days, however its taken me a while to realize what my first post should be about. I knew some type of introduction was necessary but I didn't know exactly what approach to take. So after numerous attempts which all ended with an excessive tapping of the backspace key I decided to just remain myself. I hope you like it...

Now that we have gotten that out of the way let me briefly introduce to you. The names Jameson... often referred to as Jame (Its really Jamie, But I like to keep things a little funky) by my friends. Since I have been young I have been obsessed with every form of Art. Whether it be Fashion, Entertainment, Music, Imagery it all has been so influential in the person that I have become today and because of that I will forever be grateful to the arts.

I grew up in a very small town by the name of Emporia, Va (The Black Hole). Many people know it as the little town off Interstate 95 where you are bound to catch a speeding ticket. But to my best friends and I it was A town where anything not ordinary was frowned upon.

I attended Virginia Commonwealth University and was so excited to leave home. I always knew I wanted to attend VCU, when I was in HS my friends and I would always visit the Fashion Shows, Step Shows, Homecoming Concerts and of course any party a 16 yr old could get into. I knew this University would be where I would feel free to express myself, and most importantly break away from the small, narrow minded box my hometown tried to make everyone fit in... And it truly was. I was able to grow not only academically but spiritually, emotionally, and morally. I met some of the most incredible people here and they have been added onto the list of my already existent and fruitful relationships.

Okay Okay Okay... I'm talking your head off. Let me give you the Cliff notes version of my life;

1. Grew up in a small country town
2. Had the best friends growing up a guy could ask for
3. Got introduced to Fashion at a very young age
4. Obsessed with Beyonce, Britney, Brandy, and Mel B all while growing up (kinda still is)
5. Found my love for fashion in the 6th Grade
6. Actually started looking fashionable in about the 11th grade
7. Moved to Richmond and Started VCU majoring in Public Relations
8. Pledged Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. Theta "Death" Rho chapter
9. Began Modeling
10. Became interested in Styling and Photography
11. Graduated.
12. Working FT until I can make my move to NY (The Ultimate Fashion Lovers Dream)
13. Began a Blog...

So... that's me in a nutshell. You can love me or You can Hate me but 9 out 10 times youll will think my outfits is undeniably cute. (just kidding)

Make yourself and home... Welcome to The nouveau noir. (The New Black)

Ciao.
