Fashion Inspiration: Halloween Edition...Dracula!

Long before Bill Compton and Eric Northman ran Louisiana, well before Lestat and Louis creeped on New Orleans (man, vamps like them some Louisiana), centuries before Barnabas Collins cast dark shadows, there was one vampire who ran the show.

That vampire was Dracula. And today, my freaky fashion fanatics, we pay homage to him by biting (ahem) his style.

Enter...Dracula!

Fashion Inspiration: Hood Pope

I have had this A$AP Ferg song, "Hood Pope," stuck in my head for the last three days. I can't help but be intrigued by this idea of a pope figure walking through the slums, blessing hooligans and drinking "Jesus juice."

 Like his comrade, A$AP Rocky (who, btw is dating supermodel Chanel Iman), Ferg has a passion for fashion. He attended an art high school, and his father owned a clothing boutique in Harlem. His own personal style, however, is pretty basic. Ferg favors long sleeved black tees (if he's even wearing a shirt, which is seldom) and jeans. So this post is about how I take an idea of a look from a song and make it work in real life.

 My take on "Hood Pope:"
