random

i Love my job. We r all diffrent n character and i love all the great people and characters i meet while working at City Trendz. LAREDO is full of talented and unique individuals. i try my hardest not to judge anyone and i hope no one judges me by my random blog posts. i jus like to share my feelings and experiences with everyone especially interactions i have at the shop. this week i was talking to a customer, an oldschool homie of mine and he is like yea my brother wears all "these clothes" he tries to be all black by wearing baggy stuff. I hesitated at first but i responded so are you trying to be white or gay by wearing a tight hollister shirt...luckily he is my homie so i opened up his mind a lil more to not judge anyone or put a title on anyone by the way they dress. Also during the week i had a dude here explaining how he likes to be the only one wearing stuff and doesnt like seeing other people copy his swag. The funny thing is he was a wearing a red cincinatti hat that im sure lids, champs and other hat stores have sold hundreds in laredo alone and dude had on some black converse and we all know converse are over just like the mohawk. Now aint nothing wrong with that but is that really being fresh or walking what u talk. here at citytrendz we will strive to keep u FRESH and not get saturated that is one of the main reasons we dont usually carry too much of the same style or color. we get new stuff weekly. WE STRIVE ON KEEPING IT FRESH

sorrrrrrryyyyyyyyyy !!!!

working on organizing the blog right,getting a cam to update better quality store product for u guys to see....bare with us there will be daily updates soon ....

support local! another thought

I guess now that I run a local business I look more into stuff like...WE NEED TO SUPPORT EACH OTHER NOT ONLY N TALENT N MOTIVATE EACH OTHER BUT N BUSINESS. For example ever think about stopping at that corner store before u go to heb n make mr heb richer when he dont know u or does he care. HE IS RICH JUST GETTING RICHER. when maybe u go to school with the son of the owner of the corner store right by u. I SOMETIMES OR SHOULD I SAY MOSTLY WILL PICK A LOCAL RESTAURANT OVER A PLACE LIKE MC DONALDS OR CHILIS or etc. I mean, I do support the employees needing a job n do eat at big chains but just a thought maybe next time instead of getting that coke at stripes maybe stop at the locally owned tiendita thats even closer or gettin pan de dulce at panos instead of heb LOL.

LETS KEEP LAREDO GROWING AND THE CHANGE STARTS WITH US
I RECENTLY READ DIS QUOTE BUT DONT KNOW WHO'S IT IS...Be the change u want to see in others!!!!

random thoughts

since its a blog i will randomly be putting thoughts or shop experiences or jus talk my a$$ off :). yesterday i had someone tell me we are too far in the mall. i have heard this before n trust me ldo im working on it. at first it had me thinking maybe we are. throughout our journey we have heard stuff like we should move to the mall, we are too small but then i was like damn we just love to complain and see the negative before we see the positive. before it was we didnt have a hiphop shop, we had no store that did local events or help the rap comunity promote their cds n etc. LAREDO WE R HERE FOR U GUYS. i want everyone to know we r trying our best to grow and we r slowly growing. we have a small location right now but we strive n work our buts off for u laredo and we sincerely THANK U FOR DA SUPPORT. we cannot do it without your support. we r alive laredo. there is a place locals can sell their cds and promote their music. there is a place that supports the urban lifestyle fashion music n art. i was sitting here thinking sometimes we r overlooked. we were the 1st to have ed hardy denim in the mall before it got saturated n fakes went all over. we r the first in the mall to bring u brands like supra,crooks n castles,mishka,the hundreds,im king,krew,creative rec,alife and i can keep going. we also had brands like sullen and rogue status before another store got them. LAREDO PLEASE DONT OVERLOOK US WE GOT WHATS HOT N WE GET IT BEFORE EVERYONE ELSE DOES. yesterday i met the owners of an urban shop coming into the mall. dudes were cool and open. they even bought some stuff n were freaked to see such dope brands n my knowledge on the streetwear. they were happy to see laredo growing and i thought damn LAREDO WE R GROWING..THANK U LDO !!!!!
