Dank&&Dapper represents the idea of being or striving to be a well-rounded and multi-dimensional individual. Meeting your own standards of cool without sacrificing the beauty of the mind to appease the masses. Often times, you'll find that the union of beauty and substance to be a rarity. The purpose of this blog is to serve as a reminder that being yourself while pursuing a dream is much more gratifying, no matter what. You must appeal to yourself before you appeal to others. Dank&&Dapper is also the name of a lifestyle-brand I plan to launch in the very near future. In the meantime, delight in the visions of a visionary. [=♥

Inspired by a status & a TWEET.














Before I begin, NOTE that I'm NEW to this blogging thing so FORGIVE me if this
is not up to PAR....I'll get the hang of this SOONER or LATER.

Ok so yesterday I posted a status and a tweet that read something similar to THIS --> "We're living a world where everyone is struggling to stand out from the others. I wonder to what extents this notion will take us...BUT I will say this though, do NOT lose yourself in the name of CHANGE." I can't remember what brought on that thought...maybe the FACT that I know people who are constantly aiming to do something DIFFERENT from others. Example, I know dudes that use shoe laces as a BELT, dudes are bringing back the 80s-90s haircuts (the high top fade), What they fail to realize, is the more they TRY to stand out, the more they fit in. Nowadays, everyone is aiming to be different, if it's what EVERYBODY's doing, then that just stamps it as a NORM of today.


People lose themselves by allowing so called "trends" to take over their ENTIRE image. I say if you're gonna hop on a trend, the LEAST you can do is ADD your own personal touch to it. That way it doesn't seem like you're trying to hard.

I don't get into trends, UNLESS I'm ready for it. I just don't jump into it just because EVERYbody and their mommy's doing it.


Well that's ALL I have for NOW on this
topic. I'll touch basis with it again in the near future.

Above are pictures from TODAY!
The sun was OUT woohoo!!!

Broadcasting LIVE From My Toilet Seat.

Sad that this is the only chance I get to update this.
BUT, classes started and it turned out to be more hectic than anticipated. And before you begin to wonder...YES this IS one of my RANDOM posts. This is gonna serve as an intro to the entries I plan to get in on My FREE time today. I'm gonna touch basis on relationships and why they are a success/failure and movies coming out in theatre soon, the ones that I plan to see that actually look good and um yeah that's pretty much all that I can of for now. Well now that I got my randomness out for this morning, I shall bid thee adieu, to whomever this concerns. Oh &&
P.S: I shall FINALLY add a personal touch to this...... YES you guessed it, PICTURES!!!!
I know I know, I'm excited too.
