Parental Guidance
When I was younger, my mom took me to Delancey Street to buy a fresh Members Only leather. I was still in elementary school and as soon as mom haggled the guy for a lowest price (cause you NEVER pay full price!), we hopped on the train and headed home. That was on the weekend and I just knew that on Monday, I was gonna be “fresh to def” with the new jacket, a crisp pair of Lee’s with the permanent crease and my blue suede Pumas that I just hooked up with the big fat white laces. Done deal. The girlies would flock…….
Day 1 ….. ”ooooooooh Fresh, you got the fresh leather jacket. You get all the new gear”
Day 3 ….. “yooooooooooo Fresh’s Pumas stay clean. You must get new pair every week. You must be rich”
Of course, as a youngin’, I just basked in the limelight. Fresh clothes. Best looking girl was my girlfriend. Everything is kosher right?
