Extracurriculars: Capitol Hill Block Party


-We spent the weekend at Seattle's annual Capitol Hill Block Party, where performances by Vampire Weekend, Girl Talk and others brought the hipster set out in full force. The festival's artistic, stylistic, and musical offerings ranged from contrived (customized Vans and Juno's obnoxiously lo-fi Kimya Dawson) to totally awesome (Seattle's Cave Singers), and made for a pretty interesting weekend.

-Below: Kimya Dawson, Urban Outfitters/Vera Project custom slip-ons, steezy painting.
-Dewey Cox and his friend have the whole Yin and Yang thing going on, from the colors to the hair to the tie/lackthereof.
-I spotted the gold rope in front of Laced Up on Pike Street, so the shirt was an added bonus. Laced Up may be the best streetwear spot in the city, and we'll have more on them later this week.
