Last night, we ran Brooklyn! At our CMJ event (hosted by Forthebeat + ABC News Amplified), we watched 5 up-and-coming bands rock the house and caught up with some of the freshest people in NYC! Check our favorite polaroids from the night (above) and hit our Facebook page to see the entire album. It's sweaty, sexy and sweet. Swagger: New York is coming HARD!

CMJ Flyer

As our homeboy Jay-Z would say, "Big Things (are) Poppin'". Not only are we on the heels of Swagger: New York's much-anticipated launch, but we're about to throw a CMJ rager in Brooklyn to celebrate! Partnering with the likes of music blogs, Forthebeat + Et Musique Pour Tous, as well as ABC News Amplified, we'll be bringing down Brooklyn's style + music house! So, if you're in NYC next Wednesday (Oct. 21) and want to hear music by up-and-coming acts (X-Wife, We Have Band, Phantogram, Sleigh Bells and Tickle Machine), or be featured in our Swagger: New York Polaroid Booth (tres vintage), RSVP here! We can't wait to meet you...just look for the well-dressed kids sweating on the dancefloor!

Listen to a specially curated mix for the event here or watch the latest video by performer X-Wife below!

London

In the last few months, many of you have asked us to head to London and highlight street style from Brick Lane to Buckingham Palace. And, as Swagger: London is on our style radar (after Swagger: New York), we decided to pop over the pond and see what those Brits had up their (tailored) sleeves. So get ready, as we give up almost a week’s worth of our Paris chic-ness for some English funk, and introduce you to some cool characters along the way. And don’t forget to hit us up here daily to let us know what you think!

Swagger started on the gritty streets of NYC. From Brooklyn to the Bronx and everywhere in between, we photographed the coolest of the cool. And though we left our MetroCards behind to settle down in Paris, we're headed back home in late Summer to bring you NYC's freshness daily. But don't worry, we wouldn't leave the City of Lights, so look forward to some FLYNESS from both sides of the Atlantic! Until then, check out some early shots from New York here, become a Fan of our Facebook page, and follow us on Twitter! There's alot comin' your way, so go freshen up, and we'll see you on the STREET!

It's Fashion Week in NYC and we're all up in the scene! The hottest looks we've come across so far (well, that we've been fast enough to shoot) came from the Prince Peter x Mick Rock party on Bowery. Check this model, lookin' all Chanel Iman-ish and rockin' one of our favorite tees from Peter Prince's collection, 'Love Child'. Her ripped jeans are all the rage in stores across the globe, but we hear those Doc Maarten's are making a strong comeback! We'll be bringin' ya some more looks from Peter Prince's collection soon and don't forget, Swagger: New York is right around the corner. So

stay tuned and connect with us on Facebook and Twitter below!
