This week is the kickoff of my Top 10 list.
So every week I'm coming out with a top 10 list, covering anything from food to quotes to places, etc.
So this week I'm featuring the Top 10 things people have said to me about Five Four. Over the years we have gotten many interesting things said to us, pretty amazing what people say.
1) Do you guys sell to stores?
- No guy, we rent office space, produce thousands of goods every 6-8 weeks to give out to friends.
2) You know, I can get clothes on David Beckham, you should hook me up with some stuff to give to him.
- Between Dee, William and I, we have had over 50 people say this to us, and people who we deemed credible at one point in time.
3) Hey, you need someone to do marketing, you know I know everybody?
- Just because you have gone to some clubs, seen some z-list celebrity at an after hours party in the hills, doesn't mean you know everybody or are capable of doing marketing for an apparel brand.
4) You should hook me up with clothes, I"m a walking billboard.
- This one always makes me chuckle.
5) If you need design tips, I have some crazy ideas.
- You should enroll at Parsons or FIT then, or if you are real good, go study in London or Paris.
6) When you come out with a girls line, I can totally help you design it.
- Man, if I could count the # of times a girl volunteered to help me design it would break into the thousand mark. Every girl with Louboutin shoes, a hot bag and their daddy's Amex card thinks she's a designer and a stylist.
7) Why don't you put graphics on your stuff like skulls and bones?
- I've chosen to not even reply to this statement, kind of insulting.
8) Yo I'm friends with X celebrity, you should hook me up with clothes because I'm usually photographed in the background when the paparazzi takes pictures of them.
- Again, back to statement #3, don't care about your affiliation to a z-list celebrity reality star.
9) I always get laid when I wear Five Four.
- This one is kind of cool I guess...
10) Are you looking for a model? You know I model on the side...
- Okay, so just because you may hook up with a bunch of easy girls at some cheesy club, does that make you dashing, good looking and a model now? No bro, stick to your day job. Please stop myspacing, tweeting, facebooking and emailing me your headshots that are unprofessional shots with your boy's camera or your camera phone thinking you are Zoolander.
Ciao.
THIS JUST IN, AS I WAS ABOUT TO UPLOAD, @williamlifestyl JUST CAME IN WITH AN AMAZING ONE THAT I LEFT OUT.
***Bonus. You know, I blew Five Four up.
- Wow, this one is so funny. I've been told this by a few people, but I guess the 7+ years of hard work, blood, sweat and occasional tears didn't do anything to get us here.
