//BBC//10 Years...Yezzur//
We start off with Billionaire Boys Club (BBC) The company recently celebrated their 10 year anniversary, I took advantage of this to chat about the brand. This year has definitely been a Pharrell Williams year, music wise we seeing more and more of Skateboard P. This is good news for us because not only is his music on top form, his style is up there too. Pharrell has taken every opportunity to show off the new threads from his beloved business.
Above we see Pharrell rocking a few pieces from BBC and Beeline, the Bee section of the BBC group has a mix of trendy threads. Right now its the perfect balance of creative and simple for Pharrell, then again the man can do no wrong style wise. For many Pharrell is viewed as a style icon and whatever he rocks most guys want to replicate it, either by buying the same stuff or mixing their wardrobe to a similar style. This is something I have transitioned myself into the year, I've always viewed Pharrell as a style icon but never really tried to dress like him. Right now I feel the timing is right and perhaps a few of you feel the same...
Obviously there will be certain items that I don't like or have the bravery to rock, perhaps you might feel the same but there are some really cool items from the Beeline. You can check out some of them on their online store bbcicecream then click on the BEE!, the brand has come a long away...to think its already been 10 years. I like the way its kept relevant and trendy, its a great pop-culture brand and may it continue for many more years.

//Q&A// From London Town...Mint fam//
Name : Obafemi Coker
Location : North London
Occupation : Student & Aspiring Footballer
Nationality : South African & British
Fresh from meeting @JamesGShore (James Tindale) Femi caught up with me to chat about his style influences, favorite brands and etc.
HFF - Mr Coker, thanks for your participation...so lets get started! What are your fav stores and brands?
FEMI - My favorite stores and barnds would have to be, Zara, Pull & Bear, Nike, River Island and Cotton On.
HFF - In your wardrobe what is your favorite item or items of clothing?
FEMI - I would have to say my red bow-tie and definitely my multicolored belt!.
HFF - Lastly, who are your style influences?
FEMI - Justin Timberlake and Ryan Gosling - when it comes to looking smart and dapper, these are the two men I draw my inspiration from. Always looking for nice suits, blazers, ties, bowties and smart shoes. Pharrell Williams, Tinie Tempah & David Beckham - when it comes to dressing casually, I draw fashion tips from these men because they don't sacrifice comfort for style. They have found a compromise between the two and I like this. I will never sacrifice style for comfort, I love a bit of both.
Definitely a young man who knows who to follow and what he likes, putting together pieces in his own way but with a little guidance from the style greats. If you would like to follow Femi Coker on Twitter, you can do so here
//The Divers Co.//Fashionable Art//Express Yourself Baby//
Recently I was followed on Twitter by a really cool growing brand called the Divers Co. I checked out their Twitter account and was immediately impressed.
Of late I have been heavily involved in the t-shirt game so I've checked out many designs, prints and so on. The Divers Co. captured my interest because their stuff was cool, its like a GTA print (Those who have played Grand Theft Auto will understand). It brings back those old PS2 game memories...yeah I'm serious. We all look at fashion differently, at the end of the day its art and art impacts us all in a special way.
The tees and jumpers are very trendy, appealing to the street-fashionistas out there!. I certainly love a dope tee or jumper, something with an appealing picture or wording...that's what captures the people.Divers Co. also does canvas paintings and stickers, some of their work is based on the pop-culture rapper and stars.
I really do like their stuff, its unique and fresh. Perhaps it might be something your after, why not check them out!

//Style Tips//Skateboard P
As BBC celebrates 10 years in the fashion industry, I thought it would be only right to give you style from the front man himself...Pharrell Williams.
Pharrell Williams : Wardrobe is an extension on personality, and if you're not a person who jumps out the window, then you're not going to do that fashion wise. When you do, its going to look and feel like a stretch.Also, remember my first tenet in getting dressed is how you feel in the morning. So if you're not being true blue to that, it usually shows.Those are the people you see and say to yourself, ''Why are you wearing that? It's not you''. You know you've heard people say that before. You sort of have to become what you are wearing...its like your exoshell - your exo-skeleton, if you will.
