    // March 18th, 2010 // No Comments » // Fashion


    It’s almost time to pack away those heavy jackets and bring out some lighter clothing for the nice weather. And what better way to start off the warm season then with some Ice Cream from the Billionaire Boys Club? The newest line from BBC & Ice Cream is an exploration of the more refined style of spring dress, abundant in blazers, dress suits, neck ties and pants. Once marketed primarily towards street-wear culture, BBC & Ice Cream is now starting to adapt their clothing to an older demographic. Nevertheless, BBC hasn’t entirely departed from its Japanese roots. In terms of style, BBC’s flashy colors and signature patterns applied onto a unique array of sneakers, bags, top hats, key chains and belts are as vibrant as ever. In any event, if you’re trying to look classy this season then the BBC & Ice Cream online store might be the place for you.

  • Sperry: AO DECK SHOE

    // March 11th, 2010 // No Comments » // Fashion


    Despite snowfall and sub-freezing temperatures, spring is only about a month away. Cold temperatures notwithstanding, if you want to be preemptive it might be the right time to buy yourself a pair of boat shoes. Consider the new AO DECK SHOE from Sperry. This stylish boat shoe is both comfortable and durable. It comes with a red-orange sole and is available in grey, sand, olive and navy. But what truly distinguishes the shoe from others you happen to see on city streets or perhaps boats is the suede upper. Alongside its colored sole, the suede upper creates a likeness of the classic boat shoe that will please demographics of all ages.


    Whether you’re trying to switch up your style or simply add to the wardrobe, these topsider’s are a comfortable and classy solution. The AO Deck Shoe by Sperry is now available at Commonwealth’s online store.

  • Trailer: Tron Legacy

    // March 10th, 2010 // No Comments » // Movies


    In the year 1982, Disney came out with a little film called Tron. Despite the primitive graphics, Tron was a science-fiction epic ahead of its time. Nevertheless, the name may be new to some of today’s younger generation. To recap:


    Kevin Flynn was a software engineer working for the corporation ENCON. He’s managed to produce a game that has the potential to, as the trailer proclaims, change science, medicine, and even religion. Everything is going just peachy until the day Flynn finds himself locked in the system…


    Twenty-five years later, Sam Flynn must confront the mystery of his father’s sudden appearance. And it looks as if the virtual universe of Tron has received a few…upgrades.


    Having starred in Tron twenty-eight years ago, there couldn’t be anyone more appropriate than Jeff Bridges to play the role of Kevin Flynn. And who else but Daft Punk could pull off the soundtrack? Join Disney this coming December for the 3D adventure of a lifetime.
