With all the zaniness going on, I totally forgot to blog about one my personal highlights from this year’s NY Comic Con (aside from seeing the legendary Frank Miller and taking a photo of the real Bat Suit from Dark Night): the delicious Good Wood NYC-Archie Comics jewelry. As a kid, I was obsessed with the comics so what better way to live the life of the Riverdale Crew w/ pieces like this adorable Jughead Crown ($42)?

Kanye’s kilt + other kick-ass ‘Watch the Throne’ Twitpics

Sowmya K — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 15:32:57 +0000

Jay-Z x Kanye West + Madison Square Garden = magic. I hobbled over with my sprained ankle (I’ll be feeling that today) to the sold-out Watch the Throne show w/ the homie Jenn. We witnessed a light and sound spectacular or more accurately, two hip-hop friends bro-ing it up. Adorbs!

We were close enough to literally touch Kanye’s leather kilt (Note to self: touch Kanye’s leather kilt next time). Celeb sightings included Maxwell in the front row and Spike Lee in the section nearby.
