F As In Frank hosts Taz Arnold in Toronto

For the first time ever in Canada, Taz Arnold aka TI$A will be appearing at F as in Frank this Saturday Jan 28th! For those of you unfamiliar with TI$A, perhaps this iconic picture may jog your memory? He’s the guy in the leopard tights and clearly a member of Kanye’s The Fly Group.

In addition, to being a fashion icon he also has his own vintage brand called TI$A where you can purchase some crazy home brands and exclusive vintage like my favourite the Gucci loafers. If that wasn’t enough he is also 1/3 member of a group called Sa-Ra.

 

F As In Frank has not only set up a meet and greet with TI$A at their 418 Queen St W. location but will also be having TI$A merchandise on deck.

Event starts 5pm. *All ages, no tix required*
The store will be closing at 4:30 for set up so make sure you’ve got your toques on.

As with any special guest that arrives in this city you know there’s going to be an after party.

My Toronto

Posted by marilynizedukuze on January 12, 2012
Posted in: My Toronto, Uncategorized. Tagged: Art, danelle jane tran, My Toronto. Leave a Comment

A picture says 1000 words. In this age of hustle and bustle, we tend to forget that our city has amazing visuals that tell our story. We may pass by an intersection, a road, a building, a person, a shop many times without appreciating its beauty. Every week we want to give you a unique perspective from a local Toronto photographer through their eyes.

What they capture may tell an untold story.

Community 54 Launches in Toronto!

Community 54 is a place like no other. Located in Parkdale at 1275 Queen St. West, it’s not the typical shop you would stumble upon during your downtown rounds. However, it’s worth going the distance, one of those places you`ll be begging your friends to check out. When you first enter, your eyes shift directly to the arcade games, the artwork displayed on the walls, and as you go deeper into the store; the vintage sewing machine, the old board games, the button ups and you just don’t know what to call this place…possibly your new favourite shop?

Of course, before any boutique labels are thrown, Community 54 is first and foremost a creative space, going beyond the product and presenting a lifestyle. The shop isn’t just there to offer its contents of wonderfully picked vintage items from snapbacks to Polo shirts, but it offers itself as a space for designers, artists and other curators of the city to connect and create. You can catch some live art on Saturdays and other upcoming events featured on their site, or simply walk in and chat with the man who makes it all happen, store owner  Daymon Green.

What makes things more interesting is the store’s collaboration with ThinkContra, an online-based lifestyle magazine whose workspace is within the shop. Sharing similar aesthetics in fashion, branding and art in general, it’s a match made in heaven. This was translated at the Toronto store launch in December where they worked together and hosted a meet and greet for fans of Rich Hil, who then performed at Wrongbar later on. Here are a few words from that night with ThinkContra’s Editor-in-Chief, Trung Hoang speaking about the collaboration and Community 54’s Founding Partner, Daymon Green speaking on the shop coming from U.S to Canada.

Make sure to check out the space and experience it for yourself.

Dear Readers,
I would like to start by saying ‘Thank You’! Thank You, for having supported me and my blog for over 2 years. Without your support and constants words of encouragement I don’t think I would have made it this far. Now I know  that during the holidays the number one thing bloggers and retailers alike try to sell is this whole notion of “gift guides”, I know this because not too long ago I was trying to orchestrate one of my own. That’s when it hit me. While the world is telling you what you should buy someone else I figured I’d flip the script, which is why starting TODAY I will be giving away a ton of  FREE SWAG till Christmas. Think of this as my way of saying thank you for standing behind the Freshly.Educated.Men brand and me.
Happy Holidays everyone!!
Sincerest regards,
Sharad
(Founder & Editor-in-Chief)
