Freshness Feature: Tabatha of Married to the Mob

What do you think about this “streetwear” community?

I’ve talked about it a lot, I’m actually starting to get sick of recycling my thoughts, but it has to be said. Remember that golden time when NY wasn’t all chain stores and Starbucks and kids were broke and you met your friends in the park and came up with something fun to do from there? The boys were in white tee’s or skate freebies and chucks and wore bucket hats?! Man, that was fucking street wear. The Japanese stole it and stupid fucking American teenagers stole it back and now I see these dumb ass kids walking up and down Broadway (who are from the streets, mind you) paying out the ass for exactly what they stand for. “Street” isn’t about lookin’ cool, and fresh, or whatever. It’s not a contest. You don’t look ‘down’, you look more like Tucan Sam or an alien spaceship. It’s just about being a kid from the city who’s gotta be comfy enough to face any fun that comes his/her way. And what’s with all the brands copying each other? Keep it simple, keep it sick.

What might we expect from you in the near future?(the site, a book, magazine article, music video!!!???)

I’m graduating high school in April! I will make perfect cinnamon rolls from scratch. Re-visit Brazil and move to Hong Kong. Maybe I’ll start a book, although I’m a big procrastinator. I’m going to get my dogs head tattooed on me (I’m not trying to be funny). I’d love to contribute to some magazines again, so all you editors, holler at me.
